Cabbage for Stock.

Having tried this article of food two
years, for cows in milk, am of the opin.
ion that more good fodder can be grown
on acre than any other. They also will
force the cows to give more milk over
all other food. They require no mschine
to cut them. No bad taste to the milk
was discovered. They are easily grown.
l prefer them to any variety of roots.
If you have more than you wish to feed,
sell the best; they readily bring IS to
81 per hundred, the large and rough
leaves being left for stock at the time of
pulling. We use large pair OF pruning
shears, cutting off the stem, rapidly and
easily, about three inches below the head.
There were no idle hours for the farm
ers of q generation ago in winter; and
the same may be said of the women and
children indoors. All was hurry in the
kitchen from early daylight to sunset
and when the evening darkness came on
the Knitting, spinning, darning and
patching continued until eight or nine
o'clock when all went to bed. The cloth
ing worn by the family was of domestic
make, fabricks of linen as we'll as wool.
The wool was taken from the backs of the
sheep, secured, carded, spun, woven and
dyed, on the farm premises. The bark
Of the butternut afforded q favorite tint
Of yellow-blown: and Clipped logwood
and copperas bought of the distant gro

night and on Lords Day" Aud they

little money was needed, they had few
artificial wants, and their ambition was

kept fatter COWS and had more milk and
butter, and for less money, than anybody
l know Of. First-I SOW peas broadcast
three pecks to bushel per acre, in the
month Of May, throwing them in after
breaking the ground we'll then, in Sep
tember, pull them up just when q few
begin to dry, and make hay out of the
vines and peas. l get from 1000 to
5000 pounds per acre of hay that is eat
en- by cattle and horses q eagerly Is if it
were the best clover. Pulling up is far
preferable to moving, as cattle seem to
love the roots better than the tops,
and it is said to be more nutritious. No
IN necessary, and one acre in
sowed peas is worth six Of fodder.

Fapoit, :The Recent Carnival of Crime

Whittier's Centennial Hymn, which is
printed in this number with the muaic

anywhere else, and the publishers thus
offer as part Of. the magazine something
which viii be of great value to all who

the magazine is w. ID. HowelPs paper on

and is one of the best presentations of
Shaker life yet furnished within the

agreeable literary essay by Caroline d.

The Platform Of the Temperance Party.

kuo EIdtlUEm VI So0 AoA R0tSnS0 airy
The Temperance people of the State Of
Kansas belisvisg that the time has again
arrived to present . State ticket COM
posed of persons who are honest. tenn
perate and capable. hereby unite in the
following declaration of principles:
We are in favor of: -
1. The legal prohibition of the manu-
facture, importation and sale, as a bev'
erage, of all intoxicating liquors.
2. An economical administration of
all departments of the Government.
3. Political reform by selecting for
office none but honest and capable tenn
perance men.
4. The fostering and improvement of
our system Of common schools.
8. The speedy and exemplary punish
ment of all public officers guilty of EN-
bezzlement, the misappropriation Of the
public funds, or neglect or refusal to
perform sworn duties.
6. We hereby pledge ourselves to a
cordial cooperation with the great ma
tional prohibition party in the carrying
out such principles and measures as may
be deemed just and right, which shall be
at the approaching convention
to be held at Cleveland, Ohio, May II,
1876.
But we are firmly opposed: To all
forms of repudiatioa, either State ma
tional or municipal; to the appropria-
ton of the public funds for the advance
ment of private enterprises, and to the
fnrther appropriation of the public
domain for the building of railroads.

Al Eaaivseal Atiitsde.

Some Of Congressman Goodin's friends
are trying togive him achesp reputation
for consistently by saying that he has
maintained an independent" position
in the House. When We AJAX them how
he has shswn that independence, they
reply by saying that he has not attended
any of the Democratic caucuses!
This is rather thin. Mr.. Goodin is
recognized. in Washington as q Demo
crat. That party has given him q posi-
ton on the committees that nobody but
. Democrat could hold. He may have
failed TO attend the Democratic caucuses,
but what Of that. The Democratic
caucus nominated Kerr for speaker, and
Goodin voted for him. If he don't at.
tend the caucuses. he ratified the action
of the caucuses by his votes. We would
ask his friends to point out single vote
that he has given upon political issues
that was not on the Democratic side.
If he votes and acts with the Democrats
where does his independency come in!
In what does it consist? How does he
show it, How has he acted any differ
emily than an open and avowed Demo-
Graf would have acted? How has he
redeemed his pledge Of independency !
He obtained the votes of large number
of Republicans on the grounds that he
was not . party man,-how does his
record justify that pretensef He gets
good positions on the Committees rs q
Democrat, he votes for an old time
Democrat for speaker, he votes with the
Democrats on all party questions, and
yet he is not q Democrat, he is an indie
pendent!
Again We aay this is too thin. The
fact il Goodin II . Democrat, and We
should respect him more highly, II he
had the ftanknsss 10 come out and avow
his true position. He will be obliged to
do it in the coming canvass. BE cannot
continue to occupy an equivocal position.
In this contest, men are going to know
whom they voted for. Al N open and
avowed Democrat we should be willing
to give Mr.. Goodin credit for every good
quality that he can claim. We could
respect his opinions, if We could not
eadorse them. But, In the equivocal
of protested independent"
casting Democratic votes and sustaining |
Democratic measures he fails to command
either the public confidence or the public
respect Josvnal.

We are not going to say . word against
it. On, no. The boys would not like
it. 1t isall the 80 just nov. II d more
in reputation than horse-racing OF any
other diversion.
Every young man, Who aspires ito be
anything" has got . set Of striped stock
inga . tsi-oslecsd cap and . pair Of
tights which he .csHs his usifprm.
II this uniform he DEVELOPS his mus
els. To get nuscas b the thing nova
daya but Il b not gained in the old
iAlkioesd way. In Tie days of our
grandparents, nobody dreamed Of getting
strong BY swinging from tzspssea jump
ing over poles, or playing baseball.
Muscle was mostly obtained in those
days BY following the pillow, swinging
the scythe, and performing with the
wood-saw on the winters fuel.
Baseball playing is one of The most
approved methods of getting muscle.
We freely confess that We know moth
ing about the game. We are in profound
ignorance as to "pitches" and Catches"
and "innings," and ct cstera. We have
seen the game played hundreds of times,
and we know just As much about it Is
we did when we were baby. -,
But the players enjoy it. People 60
to see them play who know just as much
about the game - We do. And they call
it Splendid ~ And Of course it ia How
the local papers sets forth in glowing
colors the triumphs of its own town club,
and how all the friends and relatives of
the various members of that club pur-
chase the paper and send it of to the
friends and relatives at a distance, that
they may know that the Stool Oaks have
beaten the STOPPING Willows by so many
runs.
Through hot and cold, wet and dry,
storm and sunshine. your genuine base
ballist will play his favorite game.
The frost may purple his nose, or the
sun of July may broil him alive in his
uniform, but he will not give up. The
balls will very likely miss their aim, and
hit somebody on the skull, and crash in
somebody's nasal organ, or stop up an
eye here and there, but none of the club
take warning thereby. Accidents, they
say will happen everywhere. A man is
just IS likely to get his eye bunged
hoeing corn, or laying bricks, as he is at
baseball playing. Who is going to give
up such noble game because he gets a
little hit now and then?
All other business has TO yield to base
ball playing.
Does mother want Tom to help her
about any household job, Tom looks at
her in amazement. Doesn't she know
that he has got to play ball? Does
Eather need him about making things |
mug for winter, why the work must wait. |
Toms club meets that very day to see
about playing the Dropping Willow
Club.
The uniform claims great deal of at.
ention, and the sisters of these base.
'allists have to lay aside the crochet and
heir tattings, md attend to demoralized
lights, and twisted stockings, and cham.
lion belts.
And though cheeks be bruised from
lows of bats and random balls, and
lands be swelled to twice the size de.
igned, by nature, the boys do not mind
!. "Our club beat 'em," say they, and
hat is glory enough.-Kde Thorn, in NJ
r Weekly.
