The experience of the past season has
given the writer highly favorable
opinion OF fodder corn. A number OF
COWS kept for milk have been steadily
fed from July until frost upon fodder
corn, with the addition Of four quarts OF
meal daily. TIE ration has been 90
lbs. in three meals Of 80 lbs. each, The
first feed was given at 6 O'Clock ia the
morning, cut up in fodder cutter,
wetted with water in which malt sprouts
had been stepped for II hours, 2qts. for
each COW, and sprinkled with 2 quarts
of meal ofcorn, oats, and wheat-mid-
dlings ground together; the second at
noon. given whole, and the third at 6
O'Clock in the evening, cut as in the
morning, but without any malt-sprouts
and with 2 qts. of meal, mixed with it
after wetting it with water. Upon this
feed the cows have kept up their usual
flow of milk and in good condition, and
have done as well as when led upon
grass cloyer or grass. The corn was
sown with the Albany corn planter in
drills 8 feet apart and inches apart in
the drill. Five feet Of row produces SO
lbs. OF fodder, 2 lbs. TO the square foot,
or 43 tons to the acre, the corn being
about s feet high and having good
many half-grown ears here and there.
One acre Of such corn is thus able to
support 40 COWS IL days, or u COWS for
40 days; but this IS only when fully
grown, as it was when these weights
and measures were made. Halfot this
estimate would be fair, considering that
the feeding OF the fodder usually begins
when a part OF the fed is only half
grown. 1t may be gathered from these
facts that there can be nc more valuable
fodder crop grown for late summer and
early fall feeding than fodder corn
This experience j. corrobOrated by that
of many other dairymen and farmers,
but it is worth knowing that there Is a
difference IN fodder corn which may
well account for the various opinions
regarding it. There Is that which, sowG
broadcast and being too much shaded
from light is without color or substance
and makes very poor feed; and that, on
the other hand, which having been grown
in rows and exposed to the light is
more solid and the juices are more
mature and perfect. The latter kind is
that which satisfies those who use II,
and the former is that Of which so many
complaints have been justly made, and
which have given fodder corn a bad
reputation with those farmers who rather
give heed to what they hear thnn try
experiments for themsslyes.-4mcrican

Woop AsHEs.-The value of ashes
as q fertilizer, depends principally upon
the Potash and Phosphoric Acid they
contain. The percentage Of these
varies largely, in ashes from different
woods, varying from 10 per cent to "a
per cent for the former, and 4per cent
to 70 per cent for the latter This
would give not far from four to five
pounds ofpotash to bushel ofordinary
mixed unleached ashes, which, reckon
ed at Al cents per pouud-the present
market value of potash in the CONNER
cial fertilzers-would give the value Of
n busnel as from Is, 10 233 cents. With
due allowance for the Phosphoric Acid
and the Lime-the latter making up the
largest part ofthe ashes-it may be seen
that bushel Of unleached ashes, lie
worth from 25 to 30 cents at the present
time. Ashes, to secure the best results
should be thoroughly mingled with the
soil. In this way, the best physical,
a. well as chemical effects are obtain
ed. 1t is self evident that crops requir-
ing larger amounts of Potash, will be
the most benefited by the application OF
ashes, as the root crops, cabbage, to-
bacco. etc. Forty to fifty bushels per
acre, is a good application.

A Test Record for Dairy Cows.

For some time past both the
breeders and the purchasers Of pure
bred, herd-book--recorded, dairy
COWS, have been convinced that
something more is required to give
substantial evidence of value than
the pedigree of an animal entered
in Herd-book. a few experts,
who know the whole'histOry Of the
best animals, may have been able 70
Judge Of the possible merits Of a
particular animal by her pedigree,
but 10 the large majority of pur-
chasers, the recorded entries were Of
no more significance than the hicr-
roglyphics which Texan cattle-mcn
brand upon the tanks of their COWS.
Mystery is always impressive.
And though some people like to be
mystiied, the larger number of
dairymen, who have kept pure-bred
animals, have been greatly dissatis-
fled with the uncertainties of the
Herd-Books. Recently some facts
in connection with the shipment to
the West, and sale there of some
COWS recorded in the Jersey Cattle
Club Register, have opened the eyes
of the purchasers OF pure bred cat
tie, for they have been assured by
the best authority that although
COW may have been recorded in the
Register. and her pedigree may be
perfect, yet she may be possibly be
"a worthless brute" This shock
10 the confidence of persons who
had profound respect for ga rec
ord, has greatly helped the inn
preston that something more is
wanted TO give the pedigree mean-
ing and a value; and that this need
is record OF performances of the
COWS entered in the Herd Book, Ii
is proposed by some well-known
and influential gentleman to estab-
lish system oftests of pure-bred
dairy COWS, to the end that their
character. quality, and value may
be associated in the record with
their pedigree. Then,any uniniiia-
ted purchaser even, may be able
to know as much from a perusal Of ,
the record as any expert, and a |
cows genealogy will be accompan-
led by an authenticated statement
IF the accomplishments of her pro-
genators. This is all that is need

Household Recipes.

quotes (balls or cakes are best fried as
above described for fish. The egg and
cracker or crumbs retain their favor,
and keep out the frying fat. Placing on
brown paper to remove the surplus fat
is an important part Of the process.
A GOOD SOFT GINGER CAKE.
Take l cup of mOlasses; half cup Of
butter or drippings; cup boiling water;
l teaspoonful Of cooking soda; and half
teaspoonful Of good ground ginger
Mix soft, bake quickly.
To fry fresh fish, so as not TO absorb.
the fat, or destroy the delicate favor Of
the fish, Is quite a deslderatum. a
lady who has attended Miss Corson's
practical cooking lectures, contributes
the following TO the American Agricul-
turist-derived partly from Miss C.'s
advice, aud partly from her own ex"
perience Small fish are to be fried
whole 4; large fish have the Aeshy pOr-
tons cut of with very sharp knife,
and divided into strips (illets) Of a
convenient size for serving. When
cleaned and ready for cooking, wipe dry
and roll them in powdered cracker or
bread crumbs. Cracker, ready pulver-
ICED, is now sod at most grocery stores
under the name of Cracker dust.) Dip
the fish, or pieces, in well-beaten egg,
and again roll them in the cracker dust
or crumbs, removing any Jumps so as
to leave the surface smooth. Have the
fat hot, and drop in the pieces, watch~
ing them carefully until they cook to a
golden brown; then lift from the fat and
lay upon thick paper to absorb the fat.
Fillets of fish with the bones in, may

method the fish are we'll Favored and
much more dlgestble for weak stom-

A NICE, LIGHT, TOAST LUNCH.
1t often happens that after a late
heavy dinner, or when arriving home
late in the evening, or when one Is an
INVALID, or dyspeptic, and especially
when troublesome tooth or other
mouth ailment prevents proper masti-
cation Of harder food, one wants a light
easily digestible and easily masticated
dish Of lunch. Well.cooked oatmeal,
the grains nearly whole and not "all in
a mush," is quite good, but is not al
ways accessible, and is not liked by all.
Latterly we have found tie following

or lunch. eaten only an hour or two be-

chalred portion; lay the slices on a
plate, preferably a soup-plate, and pour
on cold milk enough to wet it through,
and leave half an inch or so in depth
of milk in the plate. Good milk a
little extra cream in 1t IS all the better,

Put this in a warm, not very hot, stove
oven, two, three or more hours in adj
