THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BL00M8BUJIG! COIvUMBMiCO.UNTY. PA.
The Ulfllrulllrs with Hoot Crops.
Englishmen who visit tliin country ox
not great mir-ulso that our farmers tlu
volo so llttlo n'.tonUon to tho production
of root crops for feeding to stock. They
dcclaro that roots, especially turnips nnd
mangolds, aro their main rclianco for
feeding stock animals and for making
beef, mutton and pork. Tiiey speak of tho
productlveno of root oroos, of thoir ox
cellonco for food, and of their bcuollcial
iniluonco 'ih" preparing land for a crop of
wheat oiyothcr small grains. Their statu
mcnts aro all Into in relation to their
own esoilntrv. but iliov Act not. furniiOi
coticlustVo cvldenco that tho samo kinds
of crops would bo profitablo hero. Tho
cllnnto of Great Britain is very favora
blo for the production of root crops, be
ing mild nnd moist. It is also favorable
for keeping them after thoy aro raised.
In many portions of England turnips
nnd beets can bo eaten in tho Holds whero
thoy grow, nnd all tho trouble of pro
tecting'them saved. In other places tho
ground freezes so little that only a slight
covering is required to keep them till
spring. Land is high, nnd it is accord
ingly economical to produce as much as
possiblo from it. Commercial fertilizers
aro ldrgoly employed for enriching tho
soil, and those manures contain no seed
thnt will causo tho soil to become foul.
Tho food for stock purchased from
abroad is very rich in its character, being
chiefly oil cako and corn meal. Theso
substances can bo fed to excellent advan
tage with turnips nnd beets. Labor is
comparatively cheap, and thero is no
trouble in obtaining hands to weed and
thin out plants.
Theso circumstances arc nearly all ro
versed in most parts of this country. Tho
cllmato is very unfavorable for tho pro
" duction of the root crops that aro in tho
highest favor abroad. A largo part of
tho country is subject to drouth during
portions of tho year when most cdiblo
roots attain tho greater part of their
growth. Hoots liko turnips and beets,
that extend a considerable distance above
the surface of tho ground, mako a very
slow growth during hot nud dry weather,
whilo tho exposed portions become tough
and stringy. Tho climato is also very
unfavorcblo for keeping roots long after
thoy have matured. They must bo stored
in cellars or kept in pits from tho time
ireczing weather commences. To p re
servo them in this way involves much
trouble and cxiiens?, and is attended
with considerable risk. Moro labor is
required to feed them out than is rc-
j-.. .i 1 . 1 c f - 1 x . 1
milieu iur oilier kiihis 01 ioou. JiSiim is
cheap and thero is less necessity for
making it as productivo as possible.
Stable manure is generally used for fertil
izing purpose?, anil as it is ordinnmv ay
plied it is almost certain to cau?e the
land to be full of weeds. Little oil cako
is fed to any kind of stock, and there is,
accordingly, less used for vegetables in
the feeding ration. Labor is comnara
tivcly hifjh, and chcro is a great difliculty
in obtaining men who are willing to
weed and thin out small plants. As the
employment of machinery is general in
tho production or other ioou crops, uu
assisted manual labor seems degrading
It is truo that implements havo been
brought into use for sowing seed, culti
vating, and for (loincr much of tho work
of harvesting, but it is still necessary to
penorm considerable manual labor 111
raising and harvesting a crop of roots.
Hnsilngo.
Mr. Mills, tho apostle of ensilage, or
tho preservation of crops in a green stato
for fodder, the possibilities of which ho
is illustrating at Arrabeck farm, Pomp
ton, N. J , lays down tho following con
ditions as essential to success: Air must
bo perfectly excluded from tho nit or silo
by a uniform aud continuous pressure of
about n.-u pounds to tho square loot; the
the crop should havo flowered beforo
being cut, and the knives should ba sharp
enough not to tear tho sicchariuo sacks.
Last year Mr. Mills fed for seven months
MU animals, cows and horses, from ten
acres of corn fodder. The past Hummer
ho fed for six weeks 100 cattle, mostly
much cows, irom live acres ot oats sown
m tho Spring, and ho believes that
during this Winter and until his corn
crop of 1882 is ready ho can, in spito of
an luicnur yiuiu occasioned by mo
drouth, keep 125 cattlo on tho corn fod
der cut from twenty-fivo acres. Mr. Mills
states that 0110 ton of grass preserved
green in a.silo possesses as great feeding
capacity as twenty tons of the best hav.
Theso arc startling figures, but if anyono
feels disposed to dispute them Mr. Mills
will gladly furnish tho proof, and tri
umphantly point to his sleok and happy
uuwa, vvuusu neii mint umigs one cent n
quart moro than the usual price.

sometimes tho tide ot ovents turns 111

iiiKo men in outer occupations, wo

taking advantage of tho gracious and
unsuspecting, who disdain to exchange
honor for wealth. Men that amass fab
ulous fortunes rapidly, by cheating better
men than themselves, aro not good men
to sot uctoro our young lanners as ex

Truo, lasting and real success is en

Professor Huxley says: ''If tho sound
ot musio doesn't causo a dog acute pain,
why does the animal tit up on his
haunches and howl when a Gentian
bind is doing its worst in the street"
We'll tell you professor. Tho dog acts
that way becauso it loves music, and is
waiting'for an opportunity to grab tho
Joader ofthe bnnd by tho throat. It is
not a sign that a dog doesn't lovo music
because a street baud makes him howl.
Old Mendelssohn would sit up on his
logs and howl, too, if ho could hear so 1110

llow to Hun.
Very few boys know how to 11111.
"Ho, ho!" say a dozen boys. "Just
biiug on the boy that can run faster than
I caul"
But, stop a moment. I don't moan
that most boys can't run fast I menu
they can't run far. I don't believe there
is 0110 boy in fifty, of those who may
read this, who can tuna quatter of a
mile nt a good Binr.it, jince without having
to blow liko a porpoise by the time he
has mado his distance. And how many
boys are there who can run, fast or slow,
a full milo without stopping.
it Hardly speaks well lor our race,
does it, that almost any animal in crea
tion that pretends to run at nil can out
run any of us 1
Tako the smallest terrier dog you can
find, that is sound nud not a puppy, nud
try a race with him. He'll be.it you
badly. lie 11 run a third laslcr than
you can, and ten times as far, and this
with legs not more than six Inches long.
I havo a hound so active that ho always
runs at least seventy-fivo miles when I
stay a day in the woods with him; for he
certainly runs more than seven miles an
hour, nnd if I am gono ten hours, you
see ho must travel about seventy-five
miles of distance. And then, a good
hound will sometimes follow a fox lor
two days and nights without stopping,
going moro than threo hundred and fifty
miles, nnd ho will do it without eating or
sleeping.
Then, you may have heard how somo
of the runners in the South African tribes
will run for long distances hundreds of
miles carrying dispatches, and making
very lew stops.
1 make these comparisons to show that
our boys who can not run a mile without
being badly winded aro very poor run
ners.
But I believo I can tell tho boys some
thing that will help them to 11111 better
I was a pretty old boy when I first found
it out, but the first time 1 tried it 1 ran
a mile nnd a quarter at one dash, and
was not weary nor blown. And now I'm
going to givo you the secret:"
Breathe through your nose
1 had been thinking what poor run
ners wo are, and wondering why the nn
nnais can run so lar, and it camo to me
that perhaps this might account for the
diuerence, that thoy always tako air
through tho nose, whilo we usually begin
to pint through our mouths belore wo
have gone many rods. Some animals.
such as tho dog and the lox, do open
their mouths and pant whilo running.
but thoy do this to cool themselves, and
not because they can not get air enough
through their noses.
I found once, through a sad experience
with a pet dog, that dogs must die if
their nostrils become stopped. They will
breathe through the mouth ouly whilo it
is forcibly held open; if left to themselves
they always breathe through the nose.
So, possibly, wo are intended to take
all our breath through the nose, unless
necessity drives us to breathe througl
tho mouth.
There are mauy other reasons why wo
ought to make our noses turnish all the
air to our lungs. One is, the nose is filled
with a little forest of hair, winch 1
always kept moist, like all tho inner sur
faces of tho nose, and particles of dust
that would otherwise rush into the lungs
aud make trouble, are caught and kept
out by tins llttlo hairy net-work. Then
tho passages of tho nose aro longer, and
smaller, and more crooked than that of
the mouth, so that as it passes througl
them tho air becomes warm But these
aro oniy a lew reasons why tho nose
ought not to be switched off and left
idle, as so many noses are, whilo their
owners go pulling through their mouths
All trainers of men for racing and
rowing, and all other athletic contests,
understand this, and teach their pupils
accordingly. If the boys will try this
plan, they will soon see what a difference
it will make in their endurance. After
you have run a few rods holdiug your
month tightly closed, there will come a
time when it will seem as though you
could not get air enough through "the
nose alone; but don't givo up; keep right
on, and in a few moments you will over
come this. A llttlo practice of this
method will go far to mako you the best
runner 111 tho neighborhood. Tteo. 11

A Lady Lawyer's Uctort.
Judge Tyler, of San Francisco, is well
known to the bar of that city as a most
loinudabio opponent, both lorensically
and physically, as many a "learned conn
scl" upon tho other side has found out to
his sorrow.
Tho judge, who is so used todominat
nig his brethren ot tho bar, recently met
his match 111 tho lady lawyer of San
Francisco, Clara S. holtz, who clipped
nis wind in a manner that weli-mgli mil-
located nun. 1 ho story is too good to
bo lost.
Tho case of Tyler vs. Tho Iliberni
Savings Bank, was pending before one
of tho city courts, involving the right to
a cei tain deposit ot luiuis 111 said bank,
Tyler was his own attorney, and Mrs
holtz was attorney for tho bank. It
seems that Tyler, by a littlo bit of sharp
IJiriuuui-, was nvnig iu nug in a -coin
deck" in the shape of a default that had
been erroneously dated, tho admission of
wiuoh by tho judge upon the bench
would havo sent tho defendant out of
sourt. Mrs. I oltz showed up tho mat
ter satisfactorily to tho court, and the
dofnult was promptly set aside. This
nettled Judgo Tyler considerably, and
turning to tho lady counsel, ho haiil
sharply, 111 a manner intended to bo in
tensely impressive, that "counsel had
better be engaged in other business,"
that "a woman s place was atlioiuorais
ing her children.'
i he words were scarcely uttered be
fore Mrs. holtz rose in her queenly way.
and flashing her blue eyes straight into
tno judgos uond lace, sho quietly ro
marked: "A woman had better be en
gageu 111 aunost any business 111:1:1 111
raising such men as you are, sir."
i ho court commanded order, but 111 a
tone that seemed to appreciate tho jus

to buy an nlmanne, not knowing that
her husband had 0110 already. The litis-
band shortly returning nud discovering
tho trick, sent his porter to tho inilwav
station after tho peddler with a message
that ho wanted to see him on budiiess.
Oh. ves, ' said tho peddler, "I know, ho

can't miss my train for that. You can
