ENSILAGE.
Read before the Farmer's Club of the
American Institute.
Born and bred upon the farm, I
now find, like others, after many years
of professional business labor, occupa
tion for a portion of my time, with
recreation and health, in agriculture. I
am glad to avail myself of the courtesy
of the Farmers' Club to state my ex
perience in ensilage, or preserving food
for cattle in a green state. So deeply
convinced am I, from experience, of
the importance of this subject to
American farmers that I shall make
no apology for urging it upon their
immediate attention, through this
Club.
I have practiced this system for
three years; have applied it to com
mon fodder corn, red clover, pearl
millet, West India millet or Guinea
corn, green rye, green oats, and mixed
grasses in which clover predominated,
with entire success in every case. The
last year I preserved about one hun
dred tons. I have never lost any food
whatever thus preserved ; but during
the whole experiment it has been per
fectly preserved and better than when
fed fresh and green from the field. It
is eaten up eagerly and clean, leaf and
stalk, without any loss whatever, and
stock thus fed exhibit the highest con
dition of health and thrift. For milch
cows, to which I have mainly fed it,
it surpasses any other food I have ever
tried. It increases the quantity of
milk much beyond dried food, and the
quality is better than that produced
from the same fodder when fed fresh
and green from the field.
This is owing, I think, to the fact
that it does not scour or bloat the ani
mals, while it retains its natural juices
it nil nutritious qualities in the most
digestible form. The process is not
unlike that by which sauerkraut is
made, and so much is food thus pre
served improved, especially for milch
cows, that I think no one who under
stands the process and has facilities
for practicing it would, after trial, con
tinue the present method of soiling or
feeding fodder crops fresh cut from the
field. The process is exceedingly sim
ple and [easily practiced. The condi
tions of success are these :
First. —The preserving-pits, or re
ceptacles, must be wholly air-tight, so
that when sealed the air cannot come
in contact with the food to be pre
served.
Second. —The pits must be of such
form and dimensions as will best facil
itate the settling and compacting of the
food into a solid mass; and when
opened for feeding, will expose as
small a part of the surface to the at
mosphere as practicable.
Third. —The fodder must be cut
green, when in the best condition, or
in bloom, passed immediately through
the cutting machine, to reduce it to
uniform short lengths of not more than
one inch, and must at once be de
posited and trodden firmly into the
pit, sufficient salt being used to render
it palatable, but no more. As fermen
tation—which will commence at once
proceeds and the mass settles, the
cutting and treading in of fresh fodder
must be continued from day to day,
after an interval of about thirty-six
hours, until the pit is filled anu set
tling has neariy ceased.
Fourth. —The pit, as soon as com
pletely filled and settling has ceased,
must be securely sealed, to exclude the
air wholly and arrest fermentation,
and must be kept so sealed until
opened for use. At the risk of pro
lixity, I will state with more detail
my own practice.
THS PRESERVING PITS.
I make my pits of hard brick, with
12-inch perpendicular walls, well laid
in cement, with smooth joints. If the
ground is sandy or gravelly, the out
side of the walls next the earth is
eOTered with a coat of cement, or the
walls are filled in behind with clay or
clayey earth, to prevent the passage
of the air through them. The bottoms
are also laid with brick upon the flat
in cement. The pits are made from
eight to ten feet wide, from sixteen to
twenty feet long, and about fifteen
feet deep. The deeper the pits the
more they will contain in proportion
to measurement, owing to greater
density of the contents from the weight
of the mass above.
In all cases where practicable, pits
should be made at least twenty feet
deep. The walls are made so smooth
upon their inner sides as to offer no
obstacle to the settling or compacting
of the food by fraction of the sides.
These pits are made either open at the
top and covered with a roof, or arched
over under ground, with two necks to
such coming up to within one foot of
the surface of the ground, through
which they are filled, and the necks
then sealed with earth. This last con
struction I have found most conveni
ent in connection with basement
stables, to which the food is carried or
wheeled by a passage from the pits
through the foundation-walls of the
stable. In this construction I make
one pit parallel with this foundation
wall, and from the side of this pit
most distant from the stable. Other
pits are made at right angles with and
connecting with this by doorways, in
such a manner that, after the contents
of this first or entrance-pit is fed out,
each of the other row of pits may be
opened, one pit at a time, and only
the surface of the food at the end of
the one pit which is being fed will at
any time be exposed to the air, until
the whole is fed out; and this with
out opening or disturbing the necks of
the pits above, which remain sealed.
Any other form or construction of pits
which answers the conditions may be
used, such as pits or wells open only
at the top, the food being put in
and taken out through the top
only. Such pits would have one ad
vantage; that successive croppings
might be put in the same pit, one
above the other, each being sealed
with a layer of earth when put in.
Where sufficent depth cannot be got
above water, pits may be made partly
above and partly below the surface,
the earth excavated being used to
make a broad and firm embankment
around them to their tops.
TILLING THI PITS.
The green fodder is drawn from the
field as fast as cut, and may be cut in
any weather except during rain. Af
ter rnnning through the cutting-ma
chine, it is deposited and trodden into
the pit firmly, until the pit is full.
The doorway at the end of this pit,
having already been closed, by placing
boards across it upon the inside, as
the filling progressed, is now sealed
tightly by placing other boards, prop
erly fastened, across it, upon the out
side of the jama, and filling the space
between the jams with well-compacted
earth, so that no air can pass into the
pit through this doorway. The outer
covers are then placed temporarily
upon the necks of this pit above, and
covered over with earth to the level of
the ground above.
A second and, if the cutting force be
large enough, a third pit may then be
filled, sealed, and covered like the first.
After the pit has been closed about
thirty-six hours, the necks must be un
covered and opened. The contents
will be found very warm and thorough
ly wilted, and, upon being novv.troddcn
down, will occupy less than one-hal
and, if clover, not more than one-fourth
of the pit. The pit should then be
filled again, trodden firmly, and
covered again temporarily as before.
Each pit should now be opened and
refilled as before at intervals of from
twenty-four to thirty hours, the con
tents at each time being trodden down
as firmly and evenly as possible ; and
this should be continued until settling
nearly or quite ceases and the pits are
full. • Salt should be sprinkled occa
sionally over the fodder while the pits
are being filled. The pits, being now
full and settling having nearly or quite
ceased, must be immediately and
thoroughly sealed over the whole top
surface of"the fodder, by a well-com
pacted layer of clean earth, not less
than six inches thick.
This covering of earth should be af
terward examined at least twice, at
intervals of a week or teu days, and
any cracks that appear be closed with
fresh earth.
A covering of straw or hay, not
more than two inches thick, may be
laid over the fodder before the earth
covering is applied; but this is imma
terial, other than as a matter of neat
ness. In feeding, the fodder should
be cut down, and fed from one end of
the pit in sectionsof convenient width,
the earth being first removed from each
section.
If open pits are used, a layer of bay
or straw may be put over the pits when
filled and scaled, to protect the con
tents from frost in winter, if necessary.
I have not found any pressure or
weight upon the fodder, other than
the earth covering, required. If addi
tional weight is desired, a heavier cov
ering of earth will accomplish this,
and make the sealing at the same time
more perfect.
MIXING FODDEB IN THE PITS.
Much advantage will be gained by
mixing clover and grass in which
clover predominates in the same pit,
through fodder-corn, millet, or sorghum
The clover becomes, after the first fer
mentation, a putty-like mass, which
fills the interstices in coarser and more
fibrous fodder, and thus makes the
whole much more compact and weigh
ty than it would otherwise be, while
it improves the quantity of the food.
Among all our products in the
Northern States, there are none which
will be more enhanced in value by
this system than red clover. By it
this is rendered the most profitable
and most easily preserved, without
detriment, of all our grasses. A well,
built up with an eight-inch brick wall
in cement, twelve feet in diameter,
thirty feet deep, with a roof, windlass,
and buckets, will preserve perfectly
and deliver for use the whole clover
product of more than twenly acres of
fertile laud
I have recently put the fairly heavy
clover trom sixteen acres into a space
of twenty-four feet long, thirteen feet
wide and ten feet deep. But the bene
fit of this system, when applied
throughout the country in preserving
fodder-corn, sorghum and the large
millets, will be incalculable. These
crops, hitherto the most difficult, un
certain and expensive to cure and pre
serve, became the surest, easiest, and
least expensive in these respects, while
they are among the richest and milk
and-butter producing foods know"
By this system the whole southern
portion of our country, where the tame
grasses are not grown, is at once fur
nished with a means everywhere ap
plicable and easily practicable, by
which their cattle may be fed and
fattened in winter and summer, as well
and nearly or quite as cheaply as
where tame grasses abound. Who
shall say bow important an agency
corn, sorghum, and clover wells and
pits, which will be practically everlast
ing and will save two-thirds the labor
and all the waste in keeping and pre
serving these crops, too safely to re
quire insurance and in one-twentieth
of the present space, may not yet have
in making this land of liberty, union,
and progress also a land flowing with
milk and honey, for this and future
generations.
COVINGTON, IOWA, THREAT
ENED.
In several instances thriving towns
on the treacherous banks of the Mis
sissippi and the Missouri rivers have
been wiped out by the erosion of the
river banks. Covington, lowa, ac
cording to the Sioux City Journal, is
another doomed city. It stands on a
bend of the Missouri river, where the
banks are being gradually eaten away.
Many feet of fast flowing water now
sweep over the spot where the court
house stood a year ago. Recently the
current set in shore and took off a
strip of land thirty feet wide in a few
hours. No invasions were made for
another week, when another slice was
cut off. Then about half a dozen
buildings were moved back about
thirty feet, and the next day the land
on which they had stood was all gone.
The citizens have tried to moor trees
and logs to the bank in the hope of
forming a barrier for the flood, but the
current is so swift and the water so
deep that these attempts have failed.
To give an idea of what the town of
Covington has suffered in the past five
years, the case of the ferry bouse and
the principal hotel may be instanced.
Two years ago there were six hundred
and sixty feet of land between the
building and the river bank; now you
can toss a stone out of the hotel win
dow into the river, and buildings are
now being put on rollers for removal.
The Pennsylvania Railroad is hav
ing freight cars built at the rate of
twenty per day.
Judging from late reports, practic
ing law in Kentucky must be only
second in excitement to preaching in
the Cannibal Islands.
One of the best remedies for sunburn
especially when there is a tendency to
puffing up of the skin or blistering, is
a mixture of lime water and sweet oil.
Bathe the affected parts frequently,
and the heat and soreness will soon be
subdued.

ol treatment for the cure of cancer he learned
Irom a noted doctor who lived in Winchester,

Cathartic Pills
Combine the choicest cathartic principles
in medicine, in proportions accurately ad
justed to secure activity, certainty, and
uniformity of effect. They are the result
of years of careful study and practical ex
periment, and are the most effectual rem
edy yet discovered for diseases caused by
derangement of the stomach, liver, and
bowels, which require prompt and effectual
treatment. AYEK'S PILI-S arc specially
applicable to this class of diseases. They
act directly on the digestive and assimi
lativo processes, and restore regular
healthy action. Their extensive use bv
physicians in their practice, and by all
civilized nations, is one of the many
proofs of their value as a safe, sure, and
perfectly reliable purgative mediciue.
Being compounded of the concentrated
virtues of purely vegetable substances,
they are positively free from calomel or
any injurious properties, and can be admin
istered to children with perfect safety.
AYER'S P11.1.9 are an effectual cure for
Constipation or Costiveness, Indiges
tion, Dyspepsia, Loss of Appetite,
Foul Stomach and lireath, Dizziness,
Headache, Loss of Memory, Numbness,
Biliousness, Jaundice, Rheumatism,
Eruptions and Skin Diseases, Dropsy,
Tumors, Worms, Neuralgia, Colic,
Gripes, Diarrhoea, Dysentery, Gout,
Piles, Disorders of the Liver, and all
other diseases resulting from a disordered
state of the digestive apparatus.
As a Dinner Pill they have no equal.
"While gentle in their action, these PILLS
are the most thorough and searching cathar
tic that, can be employed, and never give
pain unless the bowels are inflamed, and
then their influence is healing. They stimu
late the appetite and digestive organs; they
operate to purify and enrich the blood, and
impart renewed health and vigor to the
whole system.

A WOMAN
has to go through with on wash-day; and. besides, with her clothing wet from pcrrpirinp a

those not at work are in the unhealthy atmosphere; its smell, so apparent to visitors, shew

Wrongly to the injurious effects of the usual way of washing, with its ncccssary rteam and

often the direct cause of those dreadful diseases, diphtheria, consumption, and typhoid fever.
Fortunately this trouble can be avoided; scalding, boiling, steam and all disagreeable

by the old way, by using FRANK SIUOAXXS SOAP,—a Soap so purifying and cleansing
that the dirtiest clothing can be washed in lukewarm water with very little nibbing and
clothes, bedding and utensils used by the sick disinfected and cleansed without either
scalding or boiling, while the work ts so light that a girl twelve or thirteen years ol age can do a
large wash without being tired; and yet so mild and healing Is this boap that for toilet and

wounds and sores, and to wash the youngest infants, as well as for persons with delicate skin.
Now that there la a remedy for this, so economical that the/ioorcst can use it, there is not a w oman or
A MAN
who is not directly interested In having used in their homes, in spit* of prejudice, THAT
WONDERFUL WAY OF WASHING CLOTHES, which does away with the hard work, offensive
smell and fearful steam on wash-days, makes the white pieces whiter, colored pieces brighter and
flannels softer than they can be made by washing the old way, leaves the hands smooth enough
to do fine sewing and every article as clean, as sweet and as pure as if never worn.
From H. E. Bowiis, M. D., Tlammonton, N. J.,
Kdltor South Jertey Republican.
My attention was called to FRANK BIDDALLB
BOAP from an advertisement In my own paper,
and its use in my bouse for nearly a year, according
to the directions, lias proved that its remarkable
properties have not been overstated. For remov
"lK printing Ink It Is Invaluable, while for toilet
ami shaving It Is the best Soap I have ever seen.
From MRS. H. L. KCSYON, NorthSeld, VL
I do my wash with FRA N K SI DDA LLS SO A P In
half the time and with no expense Ibr Soap, ru the
Hiving to furl mart than payt/or it. I have no steam
or scent from the wash, while the saving In
health, clothes and labor can hardly be estimated.
From E. W. STANTON, 1506 N. 20th St., Phllada.
We are confident, from a long experience In
using and recommending FItANK SIDDALI..S
BOAP, that one trial, according to the very easy
printed directions, will overcome all prejudices. It
also really has wonderftil merit for shaving, toilet.
The following are the Directions for Use, so simple that a child can understand them.
Dont do anything so ridiculous as to buy the Soap unless you Intend following them.
ma-fIOO positively forfeited if it injures the clothes, or will not do everything claimed.
First, put the white clothes in a tub of water, only made warm enough to bo comfortable
for the hands. Then take one piece out at a time ou the wash-board, rub the Soap lightly
over it, roll it up and put it back into the same tub, and so on with each piece until all
have the Soap rubbed on them. Then go away and let them soak at least twenty minutes;
without touching them, when the dirt will all be loosened, and a very little rubbing ou
the wash-board, out of that one suds, will make them jwrfectly clean, being particular t.>
turn each piece while washing so as to get at the seams. Then wash lightly on the wash
board, through a lukewarm rinse-water (without any Soap,) so aa to get the dirty suds out.
Then put through blue-water, and on the line, without scalding or boiling a tingle piece.
Afterward put flannels and colored pieces to soak, and wash them exactly the same way.
It is important not to heat the wash-water in a tin, brass or copper kettle. A tca-kettlo
will heat enough water for a large wash with this Soap.
Just Think What You will Save by this Easy Way of Washing !
No Wash-boiler! No Steam! No Smell of Suds through the House!
It has the remarkable Property of keeping the Dish-C loth, Wash-Hag and
Sponge always Sweet, and of Washing Freely in Hard Water.

A NEW DEPARTURE!
THE BYRACUSE CHILLED PLOW CO.
of Syracuse, N. Y.
Are now putting on the market a Plow that
is as much superior to any Plow heretofore
made as the Plows of the post lew years have
been superior to those made hull a century
ago.
It combines all the excellencies of any Plow
In use.
It obviates ifll the objections made to any
other Plow.
In addition It embraces several new features
of the greatest value, for which we have ob
tained exclusive Patents.
Its Beam,Clevls, Jointer Standard and Wheel
Standard will be STEEL, and Its mold board
will be a composition of Steel and Iron chilled
under a process for whl<% we have also
obtained an cxcluslvo Patent. It will bo
called
THE SYRACUSE
CHILLED STEEL PLOW
Its weight will be eighteen pounds less than
our present styles.
A first-class Steel Plow, made In the or
dinary way, lull rigged, retails for twenty-two
dollars. Inferior Steel Plows retail from six
teen to nineteen dollars.
The price of our new Plow will bo but
Seventeen Dollars, nnd it will be the
cheapest Agricultural Implement ever sold.
Its mold board will outwear three of tho
very best kinds of the ordinary steel mold
boards.
It will scour In soils where all steel plows
and all other plows have hitherto proved a
failure.
With this Plow will be Introduced a corru.
gated Plow Point and Jointer Point, on wldcll
we have also obtained a Patent, and which la
also a great Improvement, both as regards
•trenglh and wear.
The Jointer can be shifted so as to take
more or less land, and also more or less pitch,
and It can always be kept on a line with the
Plow.
The wheel will run under the beam or one
Side of It as desired, and always kept In lino.
The beam Is adjustable for Spring or Full
Plowing, and cLso for two or three horses.
The handles can be adjusted to accommo
date a man or boy, on the same Plow.
It Is a perfect Plow.
Wooden beams are going out of use because
they shrink, swell and warp, and never run
two seasons alike.
Iron beams are too heavy.
Malleable beams become demoralized and
•end, which Is much worse than to break.
A Steel beam Is the necessity of the day. It
b three times as strong and very much lighter
than any other style.
When i t>c say a Mold board Is chilled, tho
farmers know It Is so.
We do not palm off on them a composition
Of various metals and call it chilled mctaL
We want agents lor this new Plow In every
town In this State.
We can give but a very small discount to
them, but we will pay the Railroad Freight.
We propose to plnce tills Plow In the hands
of Farmers as near the cost of manufacture
us possible.
It will be the bent Agricultural Implement
ever sold.
It shall also be tho eheapetU
Persons therefore who are not willing to act
as agents on the principle that "a nimble six
pence Is better than a dow shilling," need uot
apply for an agency.
No Plows on c< irumlsslon. All sales absolute.
t*~ This Ls the only Steel Chilled Plow In
the World.
Steel costs several times more than Iron.
But tills Plow, fidl rigged, by giving small
discounts, can be sold for Seventeen Dollars.
Compare this price with that of any Iron Plow
ever made.
It la cheaper than any other Plow now
made would be at live dollars and a half.
Where there are no agents we will, on ro
te lpt of Seventeen Dollars, send a Plow to any
Kallroad station In the State and pay tho
freight. Address,
