ENSILAGE.

We heartily commend the system
of ensilage to our readers, and would
respectfully. urge upon our planters
and farmers, and especially all
dairymen, to try, if only small
amount, this year, and begin in
tine to make silos. The plan of
saving green forage, instead of
curing it into hay or fc!der, will,
we are satisfied, become universal
before long. Its advantages will be
so apparent to everyone who tries
it, that in a few years, as a rule,
winter butter will be as plentiful
and far more preferable than sum-
mer butter; far greater amount of
beef will be fattened OIL every farm.
and of better quality. and hence
theye will be raised double or treble
the amount of beef, pork, mutton,
etc, than IS now attempted to be
produced on the most productive
grass and hay farms. Ycnr cattle
of all sclts and kinds will have nu-
tritfous, sUcculent food in winter
and early spring, rs well rs in the
Mi,fst of luyuriant summer Nny-

The state House Question,


"E. W. P" writes on the State House
question as follows: We have an elephant on
our hands, white elephant, and are in the
position of the man in the story, in that we
are at loss to know what to do with it.
Once it served as symbol of our glory, a
sign of our State, even as the possession of
the same aninsal is sign of rank and wealth
in his native country But, alas long since
our glory departed from us, but it's empty
husk still remains the oftener the city
fathers meet to discuss what shall be done
with it the worse the confusion grows. If
there are two sides to every question there
are certainly ten times two to this. To some
of our citizens this huge carcass is an eye
sore thorn in the flesh to be removed at
any price; to some it is an interesting relic
to be preserved at all hazards 1t calls up
visions of ancient Grecian temples in the
minds of others and is q living lie to many.
While still another class looking at it from a
purely practical standpoint declare that it
will cost more to put it into shape to be of
any use than to put up new building, and
that if left to itself it will soon fall about our
ears, crushing some valuable life in its path

site in our beautiful city, and is in fair way
to proclaim itself the whited sepulchre it
really is. The only point which all
agree is that something must be done,
but if we wait for agreement as to what that
something shall be, the building will go the
way of all the earth and those who desire it
to become picturesque ruin will be graft
fed, and those who wish it to be utterly de-
molished will have the satisfaction of know
ing that in the process of time their desire
will be attained. The fact of the matter is
ruins are all very we'll, but do not suit the
American character. We must cross the
ocean and visit old decaying cities to see
ruins with harmonic surroundings We are
not a nation with time to muse over past
greatness I; our chief glory does not lie there
but in the future ever stretching before us
with its boundless possibilities. Then let the
powers that be decide quickly what shall be
done the moro town meetings called to dis
cuss this question the direr grows the con-
fusion.
