Ensilage,

Mr.. Mills, the apostle of ensilage, or
the preservation of crops in green state
for fodder, the possibilities of which lie
is illustrating at Arrabeck farm, Pomp-
ton, n. j., lays down the following con-
ditions as essential to success Air must
be perfectly excluded from the pit or silo
by uniform and continuous pressure of
about $50 pounds to the square foot; the
crop should have flowered before being
cut, and the knives should be sharp
enough not to tear the saccharine sacks.
Last year Mr.. Mills fed for seven months
140 animals, cows and horses, from ten
acres of corn fodder. The past summer
he fed for six weeks 100 cattle, mostly
milch cows, from five acres of oats sown
in the spring and he believes that during
the coming winter and until his corn
crop for 1892 is ready he can, in spite of
an inferior yield occasioned by the
drought, keep $50 cattle on the corn fod-
der cut from twenty-five acres Mr..
Mills states that one ton of grass preserv-
ed green in silo possesses as great feed
ing capacity as twenty tons of the best
hay. These are startling figures, but if
anyone feels disposed to dispute them
Mr.. Mills will gladly furnish the proof,
and triumphantly point to his sleek and
happy cows, whose rich milk brings one
cent quart more than the usual price.

ALTHOUGH no common steps have as yet
been taken by the Austrian, Russian and
German Government towards checking the
revolutionary propaganda, the Vienna po-
lice, of their own accord have displayed
quite sensational activity in this direction.
The inquire they have conducted, show
clearly that since 1879 and 1880 Vienna has
been selected by the Socialist leaders as
possible centre of agitation. The police are
in possession of numerous letters and docu-
ments emanating from Herr Most in Lon
don, which prove this. These efforts on the
part of the Socialist leaders failed, aud they
were speedily driven to leave Vienna. The
police, nevertheless, have not ceased to keep
an eye Oh the whole movement The sur
veillance of strangers is henceforth to be
conducted in q manner hitherto not en-
ployed. Strict orders have been given bv
the President of Police, that every stranger,
within twelve hours after his arrival in Vi
emma, must enter his name in the registers
kept in hotels and lodging-houses for that
purpose. These registers are to be handed
in twice day to the police, who shall decide
what persons are to be subjected to strict
surveillance Should there be sufficient
reasons, the person coming under suspicion is
to be interrogated as to the purpose of his
stay in Vienna, and in case of his answer be-
ing unsatisfactory, requested to leave the
city. Although the whole is to be done in a
way calculated to cause as little annoyance
as possible, it will nevertheless be repulsive
to many travellers, especially American
subjects

Society and It's Detractors.
Some Sensible Words In Defense Of It.
PHILADELPHIA American. !

IL is a singular fact that there exists large
class of most worthy and estimable people
who never enter fashionable life and have no
concern whatever with society, and who yet
cherish an undying and unreasonable enmity
against it and all its ways The odd feature
about this enmty is its entire causelessness.
The persons who most bitterly anathamatize the
gay world and its denizens, are not, as ore
might suppose, disappointed seekers after the
magic key that opens the glittering portals,
but usually are quiet, domestic individuals,
who have something else to do besides anus
ing themselves, and other duties to perform
than those dictated by the laws of social inter-
course. They indeed have no taste whatever
for gayety of the fashionable order; and, under
the circumstances, it is impossible to coniec-
ture why their dislike is SO virulent and their
sneerS so cauStic.
Such persons will say of a lively, socially
disposed individual, '"Oh she goes into socie-
ty," or "He belongs to the fashionable set,"
with much the same tone and air as those
wherewith they might chronicle the taking of
ticket on the high road to perdition, or
voluntary enlistment in the armies of Satan.
They seem to be aggravated into wrath by the
mere existence OF beings and proceedings so
foreign to their nature. This queer state of
feeling is not confined in its expression to the
utterances of private life, but finds demoastra-

''For many years had dsuffered from a complaint
