One would scarcely expect to find any fun
in SO practical thing as a railroad time table,
yet the Burlington boys seem TO have found
the best joke Of the season on the one that went
into effect Sunday To make il clear to the
unlnltated it Is necessary TO state that one OF
the chief officers of the management IN Chi
cago is Mr.. Cross. He lives at Riverside, a
few miles out, and goes IN on the train. lleis
fat, jolly old fellow and is almost invariably
late in coming to the train so that he has to
run to overtake it. The last time card shows

genial failings of one so welLknown that a
universal roar went up along the line when

he is generally able to hold his own.-Strtotor

Francis ID. Moulton, IN the first number Of
the J0urndt0f tie Imericdn dissertation, pub.
fishes an article on Mills System of Ensi
lage" which he claims will revolutionize
farming throughout the world, particularly in
the Middle States of this country. He gives a
description of the ensIlage pits of &. w. Mills,
of Pompton New Jersey, who kept one hun.
bred and twenty cattle and twelve horses
through last winter, from the product of thlr-
teen acres of land, and Oh the 4th of April
1881, had enough fodder left TO keep the same
stock for seven weeks longer. Mr. Mills sowed
his thirteen acres to corn, which was drilled
IN rows three feet apart and three or four inch
es wide, with about 90 or 80 grains to the foot
This he cuts when the stalks are still green
and puts into stone pits or "silos,' where 1t Is
pressed with several tons weight, which ex-
cludes the air and prevents fermentation. The
weight is not removed until the fodder is want
ed tor use, and then it is cut down in sections
Cattle and horses both like 1t, and flourish bet
ter on it than on hay.
\ writer says: ~ farm Of 100 acres oriInar-
lily keeps about 90 cows On farm of 100
acres, upon Mr.. Mills system of eDsilage, he
proposes to keep 800 cows, using 80 acres for
ensilage and the other 20 to grow his grain on.
From the exceeding richness produced by the
manare from so many ANIMALS he thinks he
can raise sufficient grain on the 20 acres-that
is to say, about so bushels of corn to the acre
or 30 bushels of wheat Other eastern writ
ers are going INTO ocstacles over the subject
and claim that the effect of the system will be
TO rehabilltate eastern farms that have been al
most abandoned, and 10 enable farmers every
where to improve their land by keeping more
stock and creating more fertilizers, instead of
robbIng the soil as now. II will also have the
tendency TO make smaller farms, as it will
make farming on few acres more profitable.
/ If, under this system, every acre Of land Will
raise enough fodder 10 keep ten cows the gear
round, it will not take many acres for a farm.

Pasteur states that at farm near Senlis,
France, cattle which had died Of carbuncular
fever twelve years ago were buried at GER
tain spot within walled garden. Some speci-
mems of the soil were, after that lapse of time,
lixivated and concentrated, and some guinea
pigs innoculatcd with the matter died soon at.
terward, developing all of the well.marked
symptoms of carbuncle. Seven sheep were al.
lowed to pass few hours day at the place
where the diseased animals were inferred, and
the result OF this experiment was that two OF
the sheep died of fever in about six weeks.

markable

To KEEP EGGS FREsH.-To keep fresh eggs
in good order through the summer, dip them
in melted paraffine and place them on the
small end in ordinarily moist sand in atight
barrel. When the barrel is nearly full, fill up
with sand and tie sheet OF packing paper
over the head of the barrel, and keep it in a
cool place; or the eggs may be packed in
semi liquid limc-wash. The parattine is odor-
less and tasteless, and can be removed by dip
ping the eggs in warm water, and Is by far the
neatcst and cleanest method.

A GENUINE BOY.
Some of the characteristics of Irwin Garfield

Some of the characteristics of Irwin Garfield :,
One of the Sons of the President.
Master Irwin Garfield, who is lad about /
years of age and next to the youngest OF the
presidents sons, is immense, it matters not in
what way he Is looked at lie isn't in any
sense what is called bad boy, though full of
life He can't bear the idea of beng Gagged
up, as it were, in the upper rooms OF the man
SION and insists on coming down stairs where
he can see the folks that call. He would much
rather 90 into the streets and have game OF
base ball than anything else; but this is not
allowed.
AS soon as his private tutor leaves, general

that time until he is forced into his little bed
at night
As a bicycle rider he Is great success. Not

concrete streets, as other boys are, and ride 10
his hearts content, he manages to get his BIZ
cycle riding IN the house. and can be seen any
day flying about the east room or the tiled
main hall. He claims the right of way in all
cases, and if people don't grant it willingly
he asserts himself by riding right through
them regardless of consequences.
A couple of weeks since he made up his
nina tNat ne COulu Walk vi Iuc top VI al HUI
rail fence with the skill OF the most accom-.
plished tight rope walker. He tried it and
failed. When he was picked up it was found
that he had given his ankle a severe twist.
Three days in bed was the punishment for his
effort, being unable during that time to walk,
even if he wanted TO.
AS soon as he was able to get about he did
so, Notwithstanding DR.. Boyntons orders to
the contrary; and though unable to walk for
couple OF days more, he crawled about the
floor His next enterprise was to contract
with carpenter, who happened to pass the
house, from an upper window, to make HIM a
pair of crutches SO he could get about more
readily. The crutches came but he was not
allowed to use them. A day or so after, he
was able to get about again, as well almost as
ever, though the swelling has not left his an.

Doing some fancy riding on his bicycle, he
lattempted to ride out of the front door and
out on to the portico and down fight of
stone steps into the drive IN front He failed
again; and though in this case he escaped in

handle broken off. To-day he could be seen
