At that instant a basket| was jolted out of the vehiclo and rolled along the street for some distance after the rapidly driven team. Following the imâ€" pulse that quickly crossed my thoughts, prompting me to immediately recover and 'xubsequently to endeavor to restore the basket to its owner, I laid down my pen, put on my hat and shawl, ran out and pickâ€" ed up the article.

A heavy coat will do well: but betâ€" ter if cut fine, as it then makes it morg difficult for air or heat to pass through, cither up or down, the airâ€"spaces being inâ€" creased. Thus sawdust willk sep iso unâ€" der itâ€"as where wood has been sawedâ€" till well into the sceason, and would romaijin much longer did not the warm raiis melt it. The principle of enelosing the ice in an iechouse is the priveiple of the mulch, and, if kept in view, will be found a help in directing the work so as to give it the greatâ€" est efficiency; B r| . This is a very important point, and it 1 |applies &lso, and wiih* particular force, to irrigation, which, as it is usually practised s | (watering the bare ground) is a hurt. A ; | naulch remedies all this, and a little water , | which would be an injury applied without | the mulch‘ goes a great way with it; as the { muleh holds it, preventing its evaporation or permitting it very slowly. This is the point gonerally overlookedâ€"namely, the advantrage of & mulch in watering the ground. So much less water also may be used, keeping the ground always mellom' and making mellow where rough and hard. The seoret is; the sun caxino‘gvnpox‘nte the , moisture nor bake the ground; hence, can. | not deprive it of its votile fertility. We | see tnis in a fallow that is thoroughly workâ€" ] ed. The soil retains longer its moisture, | and is cooler, the mellow surface occassionâ€" | , ally stirred acting as a dead air chamber t or nonâ€"conductor of heat, causing the ferâ€"| f tilizing clsments to remiin,. insteadâ€" of | f evaporating, as they would if heated and | o dried.

That it keeps the ground moist if a thick, porous tont is applied is known; but not well enongh anderstood.: Whan it is made an addition to an underâ€"mulch of mellow soil, its effect will be increased. . And this is the way it should be dond, applying the mulch immediutely after the ground was J worked, when it is yet moist. This in a ‘VIACC, whenitis yetmoist.
