Box 27. 19-2t Don't Burn the Leaves In almost every city, town, vil­ lage and hamlet of Illinois, during these autumn days, people can be seen raking up leaves and burning them in bonfires. However, there are some citizens that are frugal and know the value of leaves in building up the fertility of the land and they are saving this material for compost. It is mixed with manure and lime and piled in compost heaps where it de­ composes into a valuable fertilizer. Burning leaves is robbing the soil of something that can be put back rep­ resenting millions of dollars in value to the people. Auction Sale!
