THE PHoNoGRAPH.--Dr. J. w. Colley is
creating q sensation with wonderfully
improved pbonoSraph. 1t is superior in
several points-m fact, in nearly every es-

year, and Is really a miracle of invention.
The hall of exhibition was crowded yester-
day, and everybody was more than pleased.
The photograph laughs, sings, talks, whis-

been feeding that seasons crop Not
only this, they will also find that the
poaching Of their meadows BY the
hoofs of cattle will cause the fields to
become not only uneven but foul and
weedy. The place for all stock in win
ter is under shelter; especially So dur
lug this season of almost daily rain
What little grass stock get turns them
against hay, SO they will not really keep
their stomachs fully supplied. Al
though the loss Of condition may no.
so surely be seen now, 1t will be per
ceptihle enough before spring, and thus
the farmer will have lost twice; once iii
his meadows, and again in the reduced
may have some hay to sell, but selling
hay in the fall and winter and hides III
the spring, never made farmer rich.
With those who have blue grass
pastures on firm land, the case is differ
emit Such meadows are saved intact
for winter feeding, and so long rs the
soil is not poached-and as rule the
firm sward prevents this-such pas
lures ale valuable as winter feed, and
help to carry stock well into cold wealth
er. They also start early i'll the spring,
and thus furnish good bite for colts,
yearling cattle and sheep, while other
pastures are brown The sagacous
feeder and breeder should therefore
avail himself of this grass, wherever il
the west aud south it is natural to the
soil, and there are few localities natural
to the corn crop where it may not be
made to take" upon some portion Of
the farm. Once the" stand is secured,
it remains permanent. The cultivation
should he extended us far as possible
