Slintla Trees ltt Cities.
Several largo property owners In
Chicago have received circulars from
tho Tree-Planting association, whoso
headquarters are in New York city,
urging them to plant trees and thus
furnish means of needed shade in hot
seasons to come. The appeal Issued
asserts that the cooling effects of trees
In cities aro recognized both by scien
tists and laymen, and calls upon all
owners of city property, but especially
tenement-house property, to plant
6hade trees in front of their buildings.
The association insists that shade
from trees can bo obtained In a few
years if the right sort of trees aro
planted, and It offers to send free to
all Inquirers from its office at 64
White street full information as to
what trees are most suitable, where
to get them and what it costs to have
them set out. The fall is the time
to plant trees, so that persons who are
willing to experiment according to
the Tree-Planting association's sugges
tions should make their arrangements
at once.

' Filling tlio Silos.
If tlio corn is to bo cat before being
filled into silo, it is unloaded on tho
fodder-cutter and run through the cut
ter, after which the carrier elevates it
to the silo windows and delivers it in
to the silo. Tho length of cutting
practiced differs somewhat with dif
ferent farmers, and according to vari
ety of corn to bo siloed. Tho general
practiced is to cut the corn in one
half to one inch lengths; a few cut in
two inch lengths. The corn will pack
, better in the silo the finer it is cut,
and cattle will eat the larger varieties
cleaner if cut into inch lengths or
less. On the other hand, it is pos
sible that fine catting implies larger
losses through fermentations in the
silo; fine cut silage may, furthermore,
not keep as long as silage cut longer
after having been taken out of the
silo. Thero is, however, not sufficient
experimental evidence at hand to es
tablish either of these points; the ma
jority of farmers filling silos, at any
rate, practice cutting corn fine for the
silo.
Tho carrier should deliver the corn
as nearly in tho middle of tho silo as
possible; by means of a chute at
tached to the carrier the corn may be
delivered to any part of the silo do
sired, and tho labor of distributing
and leveling the corn thus facilitated.
If the corn is siloed "ears and all," it
is necessary to keep a man or boy in
the silo while it is being filled, to
level the surface and tramp down tho
sides and corners; if left to itself, tho
heavier pieces of ears will be thrown
farthest away and the light leaves and
tops will all come nearest the dis
charge; as a result, tho corn will not
settlo evenly, and tho feeding value of
different layers of silage will differ
greatly. To assist in the distribution
of the corn it is recommended to hang
a pyramidal box in front and below
tho top of tho [[carrier; this may be
made about three feet squaro at the
base and tapering to a point, at which
a rope is attached for hanging to raf
ters. Tho descending [mass of cut
corn will strike the top of the box and
be divided so as to distribute to all
parts of the silo. Another simple de
vise is to place a board vertically, or
nearly so, in front of the top of the
carrier, against which tho corn will
strike.—E. W. Woll's Book on Silage.
Preparing llnlter For tlTiirket.
In cool weather, if one has custom
ers near at hnud, butter made into rolls
or pats is acceptable, but many people
like it packed in jars. The five pound
jars are very popular in small families,
and in packing butter in these, make
the top look as nice as possible. Use
the regular butter paper to cover the
upper surface, as it looks better, ex
cludes the air bettor and is superior
in every way to a cloth. The paper
may now be bought by tho thousand
sheets and in convenient sizes to fit
certain sizes of jars and butter tubs.
In shipping butter one must depend
entirely upon thoso to whom he ships.
Commission men handle largo quanti
ties of butter in certain ways. Some
prefer their shipments in crate 3 hold
ing eight five-pound jars, while othors
will not handle the crated butter at
all. It is never eoonomy to ship but
ter iu jars unless these are crated, as
tho freight or express charges are very
greatly augmented in the first case.
Twenty-five pounds of butter packed
tn a tub may be sent for little more
than half tho expense of the same
amount in jars. It is better if one
ships butter regularly iu good quan
tities, to buy the tubs in large num
bers. In some cases tho outside aud
insido of the covers aro rough aud un
tidy looking, the covers not fitting as
they should at all, but there aro tubs
on tho market almost as smooth both
outside and in as though made from
pressed paper instead of wood.
It is always well to lino a butter tub
with parchment paper. This is not
10 difficult a matter as it it might seem
at first attempt. The paper should
first bo wet, and then laid upon a
smooth board kopt for this purpose.
A wooden roller something like a
pastry rolling pin, which is about an
inch and a half at one end and tapers
down to one inch at the other end, is
then used to roll tho paper from the
board. This Motion should bo in the
direction of right to lelt. A little
practice will enable one to do it neatly
aud deftly. When the paper is on tho
pin, placo in the tub aud unroll it, un
rolling it to the left. It will take but
a few moments to lino a tub and then
tho butter will have no chance to taste
of the wood, as it will be apt to do if
it is packed directly into the unliued
tub. A circle of tho paper should
cover tho bottom of tho tub. Neat
ness iu all its branches is necessary in
all dairying, but some good butter is
spoiled by the manner of packing,
while butter that is not actually prime
often brings a fair prico if put up in a
neat looking package.—American Agri
culturist.
Oat-or-Door Cellars.
Every farmer who grows iarge quan
tities of potatoes, roots or fruits and
expects to store them through the
winter should build ono or more out
of-door cellars. By this we do not
mean the pits in which farmers often
store potatoes; but veritable cellars,
roofed over and yet banked up so that
they will be impervious to frost, and
with a double door at the entrance so
that at any time the vegetables can
bo examined. Such cellars are often
lighted with windows on their sunny
side, with of courso two window frames
and dnplicato glass. It is bettor to
fit in these windows while the earthen
protection of the cellar is built up, af
terwards packing tho soil at tho side
of the frames so as to leave no ingress
for air. In most cases a small stove is
put in so as to furnish heat if there is
danger that the temperature will get
below the freezing point.
If one such out-of-door cellar is
built near the house it will bo a great
convenience for keeping milk aud for
doing such work as churning, and
sometimes washing in summer time.
Such a cellar needs to bo floored, and
ought to have more light than the out
of-door cellars used for storing pota
toes aud other vegetables. But as it
is very unhealthful to hoe over <1 May
ing potatoes or over-stored beets, tur
nips aud cabbage, these should also
be kept in a cellar near enough to the
house to be easily roached during
storms and wintry weather. By mak
ing a number of these out-of-door cel
lars, the dwelling may bo set up
higher from tho ground and divided
off into rooms, one of which should
contain the heating apparatus for the
wholo house. Furnace heat, if it is
economized, as it may be, is far less
expensive than it is to heat each room
by stoves, which aro themselves set up
from the floors, and throw most of
what heat they furnish iuto the upper
part of the room, or worse still, send
it up the chimney. The warm air al
ways rises, and a short distance above
any large city tho air in extreme cold
weather is always several degrees
warmer than it is in the open country,
where there are fewer chimney tops
sending up the heat wasted in build
ings below.
While it makes easier work to dig
into a slight ridge in order to save
earthing up against tho out-of-door
cellar, it is possible to build one on
entirely level ground. But in either
case there should be drainago away
from the cellar, so that at no time will
water remain iu tho bottom or under
the floor. Theso cellars will make
cool places to work in during hot
weather, and may yet be kept dry
enough to avoid danger from colds.
One of the advantages of providing
storage outside -the house for fruit
and vegetables is that the cellar, nfter
the building is set up on a higher
foundation, can be better lighted with
windows, aud be made as pleasant to
live in as are the usual first floors of
houses whose sills rest on the grouud,
or on walls by a few inches above it.

Turnips Make Good Mutton.
The English farmers, says a writer
in Country Gentleman, feed their
sheep as do no other nation iu the
world.
It may be a special possibility of the
climate, where the ever-weeping clouds
keep the land moist, so that the feed
is always succulent, aud which favors
tho growth to perfection of the tur
nips and the beets, while the grass
is proverbially sweet aud always
green.
It is a strange thing that we on this
side of the ocean—at least some of the
scientific part of us—will insist that
the food has nothing to do with the
quality or flavor of the flesh, or other
products of any animal; at least this
is peremptorily alleged iu regard to
butter of cows, aud thi3 is a similar
product in any animal to the fat in
flesh, and is derived directly from, and
is flavored by the food.
As the turnipy flavor and odor of
the English mutton corns from the
feed—aud the milk and butter are also
flavored by this root—it must be ad
mitted that the succulence of the Eng
lish mutton chop is due to the special
feeding of the sheep. But whatever
may be the oause of this excellence of
the English miuton, it is something
tor us to study and mako a practical
part of our sheep keeping, if we would
secure the best results from our work.
Root culture is tho very key to success
oi English agriculture.
The British farmer is apt to call the
sheep "the rent payer;" and as the
rent is a far larger matter to him than
the whole interest on the value of an
average American farm, this is saying
much of tho wool bearer, and the
sweet, tender, juicy mutton sheep. In
England the root crop is tho cleaning
crop for the land, and by its feeding it
is the main enricher of the soil. SVe,
here, on this side of the ocean, spend
several times as much for commercial
fertilizers as tho British farmer does.
He is far more interested iu his com
post heaps than wo are, and tho sheep
is a special manure maker and spreader
for him. Thus it is that the turnip?
are eaten off tho land by sheep which
leave their liberal return on the laud,
evenly spread, in exehango for their
food. And it is to these turnips that
tho mutton owes its excellent qualities,
as is so truly and emphatically insisted
on by the writer above referred to.
In our agriculture the root crop
naturally follows the corn. This is an
advantage the British farmer does not
enjoy, viz., to have two cleaning crops
following each other. Now if wo were
to make n practice of feeding sheep,
for which there is the widost kind of
opening, not only for our own steadily
increasing market for mutton —aud this
would begreatlv stimulated if we were
to eat this luscious aud of all meats
the most nutritious, as well as satis
factory to the appetite—but also for
export, we might largely increase the
profit of our farms.
The South is especially Interested
in this matter, for the Southern cli
mate is equally fitted for tho culture
of roots as is that of England, aud
there is abundant land lying idle that
calls in tho loudest manner for the
owners to make it productive, to en
rich it aud help it to serve tho good
purpose for which the great Creator
made it, and for which He conferred
it upon mankind, viz., to subduo it
and to replenish it and make it fruit
ful; for there the roots grown on the
land may be eaten directly from it, in
the English way, with ,no expense ol
harvesting tho crop. And,the sheepk
golden foot, and the sweet tenderness,
of its meat made of this succulent,
food, will inure to the pleasure and!
profit of ourselves and tho eager
chasers of this product abroad.—Farm,
Field and Fireside.

CLEVER MATCH MAKING.

"An exceedingly clever bit of match

American lady whose eldest daughter

European tour, and who, after doing

pleasuring," writes a resident of Paris
to the New York Commercial Adver
tiser. "Attractive and clever, she had
many suitors. She adroitly reduced
the number to two. Then she v ,'ote
home to her mother, explaining the
exact situation of affairs, adding that
they were ijoth so handsome, agreeable,
well-conducted and rich that she could
not decide between them, and closed
with the question: 'What shall I do?'
Ten days later she received a telegram
from her mother: 'I sail tomorrow;
hold both until I come.' The next
transatlantic steamer brought the
mother with her second daughter, Just
turned 18. On her arrival she at once
took the helm of affairs, and she at

For wo shall smash tho hideous pils
And crush tho hideous sport;
And there shall we a diamond lay
And bienchors build withal,
Ami Cuba's nimblq nine will play
The noble game of ball.
Tho dying bull shall bleed no more
To slake their odious thirst,
But death their bosoms will deplore
When Duffy dies at first;
And grief funereal will incline
And bow their doleful heads
When old Havana's Baseball Nino
Are buried by tho Beds.
No more shall slaughter's gory hand
Uneluice tho crimson flood,
Save when tho righteous cranks demand
A treacherous umpire's blood:
Nor shall their wild resentment cry,
Their fierce displeasure howl,
Save when Molony muffs a fly,
Or Mullins muffs a foul.
The sanguinary mob no moro
The plaudit's din shall raise,
But Coogan's run that ties the score,
The terraced cranks will praise;
And Murphy's throw, and lieilly's bunt,
And Dooley's triple whack.
And McNamara's sliding stunt
Will make the welkin crack !
No moro shall carnage rupturo yield,
Nor butchery enthrall.
When on the reconstructed Hold
Tho umpire cries, "Play ball!"
But hearts will thrill, and radiant eyes
Will glow like festal lamps,
When o'er the hills ha pennant flies,

Complexion of Spanish Women.
You find in many parts of Spain
blue-eyed and fair-haired women, and
we have iu Mexico specimens of these
hereditary daughters of tho invading
Goths, who have brought down to our
tim/js, iu their eyes, the memory .of
blue summer seas beneath shorclands
icebound in tho long winters. And
tho fair hair is common, too, and
somehow one uever gets over tho feel
ing, iu listening to the soft Spanish
coining from the lips of a blue-eyed
aud light-haired woman, that she has,
perhaps, learned it as a foreigner in
her early youth. But 110; she is as
much a Spaniard as the women whose
eyes reveal the descent from tho Moor
or the Carthaginian, or as she who
has the strong profile of the ltomau
conqueror.
A fair woman is called in Spanish
"una guera," pronounced "oonah
gwayrah," or else "una rubia." Both
terms are common. Among a race
where the dark skin prevails, to bo
fair is a mark of beauty,aud one often
hears people speaking of some lady
iu terms of praise as "la guera." To
call a baby "fair" is to capture the
heart of the mother. A fair complox
ioued man is "uu guero," "oon gway
rob." —Correspondence in Ne\y York
