FEEDING SILAGE.
The Silo llnndy to the Feeding Floor.
A Wheel Trnfk.
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

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

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 ;

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

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. The agitation failed,
however,- so that your letters are still
liable to be opened, and the law would
be on the side of the official opeuer.~-

When the Australian aborigine is
pushed and can find no other game, ho
catches snakes for food. With his won
derful brown eyes lie can see the faint
est trail where a snttke has zigzagged
through tho dry moss and leaves. At
nighttime his broad nostrils take up
the chase, and, stooping down among
the bushes, with a tough forked stick
in his hand to support him, he follows
the track as unerringly as a blood
hound. When he runs a snake to earth,
if he cannot surprise It in the open and
kill It by a sudden blow of his stick,
he squats over Its hole, making a low
hissing or whistling sound with liU
lips. Soon the snake puts Its head out
of the hole and peers round. In an in
stant the forked stick descends and
fixes It to the ground by the neck, and
the black fellow, seizing It behind thfc
head, so that it cannot bite liliu, drags
it out of tin- hole and either twists Its
bead off or pounds It on the ground
till its back Is broken.

The collection of religious relics to
Ik." seen iu the church of the Corslc i
village of Slsco is undoubtedly unique.
The Inhabitants of this pretty Utile
place are exceedingly devout and very
simple, which probably accounts for
the possession of such a remarkable
collection. A writer in L"lndependence
Beige gives the following list of the
principal Items: The horn used by Mo
ses to call together the children of Is
rael while In the desert, a tuft of that
red hair which was the pride of Esau
and tho despair of Jacob, a piece of
the nail of the liltlo toe of the left foot
-the statement Is very nreclse—of
Enoch, the patriarch; the bib worn by
the Infant Jesus, the curb and crupper
of the ass that took the holy family In
to Egypt and several relics of various
saints.

In many cases 6r Barrenness or cluld
lefSnosj the obstacle to child-bearing is
vaally removed by thecurjof weaitneafon

vorite Preacrlptlon has been the meana of
restoring health and fruitfulnuss to many
a barren woman, to the great Joy of the
household. In other, but rare cases, the
obstruction to th« bearing of children has
been found to bo of a surgical character,
but easily removable by painless operative
treatment at the Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute. Buffalo, N. Y., over which
Dr. Pleree of tho 'Favorite Prescription"

proper treatment.
In all tho various woaknesses, displace

bilitating, catarrhal drains and ki all
cases of nervousness and debility. Dr.
Pierce's Favorito Prescription is the most
effloient remedy that can possibly be used.
It has to its credit hundreds of thousands
of cures —more in fact than any other
remedy put up for salo through druggists,
especially for woman's use. The ingredi
ents of which the "Favorite Prescription"
Is composed have received the most
positive endorsement from the leading
medical writers on Materia Medica of all
the several schools of practice. All the
ingredients are printed in plain English
on the wrapper enclosing the bottle, so
that any woman making use of this
famous medicine may know exactly what
she is talcing. Dr Pierce takes his pa
tients Into his full ('onndence, which ho
can afford to do as the fofmula after
which the "Favorito Prescription" is
made will bear tho most careful exam
ination.
