nc (the author) describes the action of draining upon 
the soil, the construction of single drains and systems of 
drains, the cost nnd the profit of thorough drainage, the 
making of tiles, and the reclaiming of salt marshes, 
treats sensibly of malarial diseases, and closes with a 
chapter which should be widely read, on house drainage 
and town sewerage in their relations to the public health.

Nowhere docs this book merit a wider circulation than 
ill the West. Every year adds to the thousands of dollars 
lost to this State from want of proper surface drainage, 
to say nothing of the added gain to result from a com- 
plete system of trader-drainage. This book will prove 
an aid to any farmer who may consult it.

E4RTH CliOSETS: 
How to Make them and how to Use them. 
By GEO. E. WAKING, Jr. 
It is sufficiently understood, by all who have given the 
least thought to the subject, that the waste of the most 
vital elements of the soil's fertility, through our present 
practice of treating human excrement as a thing that is 
to be hurried into the sea, or buried in underground 
vaults, or in some other way put. out of sight and out of 
reach, is full of. danger to our future prosperity. Sup- 
ported as the arguments ill this little work arc by the 
most imperative agricultural and sanitary considerations, 
il is believed that I bey will commend themselves to the 
approval of all, in both town and country, who have the 
well-being of society at heart.

Tin; Plant ; Thb Soil; Manures ; Mechanical <.'cl-

The foregoing subjects arc all discussed in plain nnd 
Blraplc language, that any farmer's boy may understand. 
The book is written by a successful practical farmer, and 
is full of information, good advice, and sound doctrine. 
HORACE <;UEEEEY says of it: "Though dealing 
with facts unfamiliar to many, there is no obscure sen- 
tence, and scarcely a hard word in the book ; iis 254 fair, 
open pages may be read in the course of two evenings 
and thoroughly studied in the leisure hours of a week; 
nnd we pity the man or boy, however old or young, who 
can find it dull reading. Hardly any one is so wise Unit 
be will not learn something of value from ils perusal ; no 
one is so ignorant or undeveloped that he cannot generally 
understand it; nnd no farmer or fanner's son can study it 
thoughtfully without bciiiL,' a better uud more successful 
cultivator than before. "
