One great feature In feeding of silage Is to have the • ' ndy to the feeding floor, nnd in - i .g the silo sufficient thought should 1 e given to this, as it takes time to feed silage, and, although perhaps hut a small amount daily during the whole feeding season, it amounts to considerable, says a Kural New Yorker writer in preface to the following suggestions: When one has g>cd feeding alleys and a food many cows to feed the J TECCK F<?B HAULINO SILAOE. wheel truck is certainly the handiest, but the man with the feeding fork must use brains or some little cows will get thirty to forty pounds nnd the large ones perhaps only fifteen to twen ty. Bushel baskets are commonly used, and when one has not too many cows work well, as it is easy to see that the cow gets the right amount. They are not too heavy to handle easily. For our use we have a truck holding nbout twenty bushels, a sketch of which Is shown here, mounted on two larger wheels in the center and a smaller one at each end. The center wheels are not as large as we wish they were, and the truck doesn't run Itself. If you are building one, get the center wheels plenty large enough. The truck Is wider und longer at the top than at the bottom, so that wheels do not project over the side or end. One of the best planned silos for handy feeding we saw last summer on the farm of 1> Falrchlld, Fairfield county. Conn. Mr. Falrehild feeds silage practically the year around. Two » 6 J 91| ti * -< j 9 Ffet \ 9 Fttrr \ CJT7 * SILO Dooiy^ !6 FEET (H) SILO AND BAItN AKKANaESIENT. of the silos are nine feet In diameter and the other sixteen feet, I believe. They all open out at the same point, right at the feeding lloor. A ground plan sketch of silos and barn floor Is here shown. There Is a shed roof over the silos, which is cheaper and better than a roof over each silo. Limn Dram Pay. lii the garden no one Item has reg ularly paid me better than the lima bean. For eight years I supplied the large hotels at Saratoga Springs, N. Y., There Is a popular notion that lima beans belong to the hot, sandy soils of the south. They will mature anywhere lliat corn will mature. The lima bean market Is like the egg market; there Is always a sale for the strictly fancy and fresh. Stale beans should be tak en back and fed to the pigs. In my cx porlence there have never been enough of the right sort of beans to supply the market. I have planted as high as fourteen acres of the bush variety as a nurse crop In young orchards, says a Connecticut man In New England Homestead. As to prices, you can al most make your own. I have received as high as $2.25 per bushel wholesale nnd very seldom as low ns sl. Timely Poultry Dolmen. I>o not set the hen until you find that she Is thoroughly broody. At this season of tho year she Is very apt to change her mind. I>o not glvo a heu more than eleven eggs, as she cannot keep a larger num ber properly warmed. The chicks should be kept indoors for the first two weeks, ns the weath er will be too changeable for them. It Is not too late yet to mate up the breeding pens. lie careful not to lu brced.—Farm .Tournal. School Gurdenliut. It Is not at nil necessary or desirable that all school children should be mode luto gardeners, but the early teaching would raise the standard of those who adopt the calling and would create a better appreciation of the crnftsman's skill in those who would depend upon tho lnlior of others. From the stand point of trade, too, the increased Inter est in garden embellishment would stimulate a widespread and healthy demand for plants nntl seeds of high quality. COLD FRAMES. The AdTanlno- of HitvliiK Them. When to Trnnapluiit Seedllnir*. One purpose of cold frames Is to further the growth of plants after they have been started In the hotbed or greenhouse, says a writer, who gives hints from his own experience with them as follows In New England Homestead: It Is a great advantage to transplant ut least once before setting plants lu (he field. This encourages the develop ment of a strong, stocky plant with a fine root system. There Is no particular time at which transplanting should be ilone, but It should never lie delayed until the plants are weak and spindly. We generally begin in about four weeks from the date of sowing. When the plants are started lu the green house, where wo have perfect control of the heat and moisture, It Is possible to hold seedlings of cabbage and even tomatoes for a period of six weeks without detriment to the plants. This Is not possible with hotbeds, and there should be no delay lu tho first trans planting, if a large number of plants are to be handled, better begin too soon than too late. Spnec Generously In the Plain. It should be kept lu mind Hint tho more space we allow plants lu tho flats or frames the more favorable condl Hons will be for the development of ntroug plants, our own practice is to plant cabbage, lettuce and cauliflower one and a half Inches apart each way. The Inside measurement of our fiats is 15 by 21 inches, holding 110 plants. I'lautlng at this distance a sqsh will cover about 1,000 plants. If a limited number of plants are to be grown It will l>e still better to allow two Inches between plants In the fiat, and it will , enable the grower tv transfer plants ; to the neld with a larger amount of j soil and manure attached to the roots, j Tomato plants should l>e transplanted twice to get the best results, allowing two Inches at first transplanting and from four to six Inches at the second shift. ECHOES FROM THE PRESS. ( oneernliitf Parcel* I'otl nnd Other Intereatlns Matter*. It is needless to present argument favoring parcels post. Every one is insistent with argument. What Is needed is concerted, vigorous and per sistent action. Go to wcrk. Write your senator and congressman; write the representative from your district. The senate can l»e reached through the various state legislatures. Begin there, keep working, weary not, always per severe. Write your state representa tives; write your senators.—Mary E. Lee In Farm and Fireside. Whitt John IVinaiuakrr Sal.l. When John Wauomaker was post master general he made the statement that parcels could be carried by the :>ostoffice department at one-twelfth the cost charged by the express com panies. A statement like this coming from such a source should carry a great deal of weight. The carrying of parcels at reasonable rates through the facilities of the postofflce lias been en joyed in other countries for a great many years. The system has been de manded In the United States by the citizens generally, by the fanners In particular.—Farm, Field and Fireside. Treated Like a. Gentleman. Nearly all civilized countries now have a parcels post. Every fourth class postofflce should be a delivery office, and every citizen should have the privi lege of going to get Ills mail or of having it delivered at his door, not at the end of his lane. Then the tele phone could be made an adjunct of the postoffice to notify patrons of the ar rival of mall matter; then savings banks could be placed within reach of every one; then, with some kind of post currency for sending money by mail, the American farmer would be fixed up like a gentleman.—Farm Jour nal. Calculated to Stop Leaks. The bill before congress which is in tended to prevent not only the selling of advance Information on the crop reports, but also the speculation by government employees In the products reported upon, seems calculated to have a powerful effect, for It provides a penalty of $5,000 and Imprisonment for ten years. POPULAR GARDENING Do not plant beans after beniw If possible. Iseets or carrots will do bet ter, and they are always acceptable In a young state. As soon as the ground is In a fit con dition make a sowing of parsley. This should be sown in an accessible posi tion. It Is needed dally. The cabbage is one of the greatest of feeders, and thv- grower need never worry over his soil being too rich, even If he should use the rankest of ma nures. Mustard makes one of the finest of greens, and when cooked like spinach some people consider it far preferable in flavor to the latter. The early round varieties of peas should l>e sown first, sucli as Daniel O'Rourke and Nott's Excelsior. Gradus and other wrinkled varieties do not do so well until the ground is wanner and should be left for a second sowing. The seed for early celery plants is i generally sown under glass In Febru ary or March, and as soon as the plants are of sufficient size they are re set. This Is done several times, trim ming tho plants both at top as well as root, and thus a stocky, well rooted plant Is secured. For early onions plant sets as soon as the ground can be thoroughly work ed lu the spring. Letters In Er.gUnil Not Private. You cannot regard any letter you may send through the post as being private. The government has a legal right to open any letter or parcel pass lug through the post and is also en titled, of course, to use any informa tion thus obtained In furtherance of the interests of the law. At one time the official and secret opening of "pri vate'' letters was of such common oc currence that postoffice employees were sent to France to take lessons from an expert in the art of opening and re sealing letters. In 1812 the postmas ters of Manchester, Nottingham and Glasgow were instructed to "open all such letters as should appear to be of a suspicious nature and likely to con vey seditious information," and so re cently as fifty years ago there was an agitation to deprive the government of the right to open letters passing through the post.
