Farm Work for the Year
December
Stock Farm: (contd.)
Yards and byres and boxes are cleaned out, and the manure carted during frosty weather, when the dung-cart can be worked without injury to the land, heaps of manure being made on properly-prepared layers of absorbent earth in the fields intended for green crops next year. The carts are driven over the heaps as they bring their additions, so as by condensation to check any premature fermentation.

Some butter- making may be continued, and the earliest calves may be coming, but, as a rule, where cheese-making is the ordinary industry, cows are dry, and fed, either in fields or in shippons, on turnips with hay and straw.
