The Value of Ensilage.

The leading fact in regard to ensilage Is
this one acre of land may be made to
support two COWS or two head of other
cattle. As under the ordinary system Of
pasturing or foddering three to five acres
of equally good land are required to sup
port one COW, the economy and profit OF
the system are plain. The system has
passed the stage of doubt and experiment,
and its value and practicability have been
abundantly verified All that is required
now to make its advantages available is to
set about it. First the crops are to be
grown, and this point is now timely one.
The two most available crops are rye and
corn Both of these may be grown upon
the same ground. Rye sown in the fall is
ready for cutting in June, or in May in
some seasons, the precise time being when
the plant is in full blossom. The crop is
then mown down and stored in the silo,
and the ground at once is MANFRED, plowed
and planted to corn, in drills, in the usual
manner, but the seed is sown thickly in the
drill. By good cultivation large yield of
the best fodder is secured, and when this
is in full blossom, or later when the ears
that are formed are half mature, it is cut
up and packed away. Here are two crops,
the rye yielding six or eight tons per acre,
and the corn twelve to fifteen tons, grown
in one season upon one acre. A COW con-
sumes fifty or sixty pounds of the fodder
daily. This is equal to about ten tons in
the year, so that two cows may be fed
from the produce of one acre. 1t is easily
seen that the soil is not SO much exhausted
by this sort Of culture as by growing grain,
while the loss of nutritive value occasioned
by curing grass into hay, or corn stalks into
dry fodder is avoided. At the same time
the quantity of manure made on farm is
practically increased six to ten to ten times
with proportionate advantage. Certainly
if there is one modern improvement in ag-
ricultnre more than another which deserves
investigation and trial by farmers, it is the
system of ensilage.

they can present, as an inducement to parties
to make their purchases from them.
First-They have had an experience over
so years in business, i'll which time, from
small concern they have built up theirpresent
large trade by fair dealing, without msrepre.
senting and without urging any one to buy.
One Price, and that Price marked in plain
Figures on every article.
NeXt-The great advantage possessed BY
them of being themselves Large importers Of
Foreign Goods: an experienced Buyer from
their House visiting the various European
Markets twice year, and making their pur.
chases direct from the manufacturer, thus
saving to our customers the profit made By
an Importer when he sells to the Jobber Or

by the Wholesale Dealer when he sells to the
Retailer Whereas, in dealing with us, there
is but one profit between the Manufacturer
and our customers.
We keep on hand very large and varied
stock, embracing Goods of every class from
Low Priced to the most expensive; but no al
ticle that would be "dear at any price only
such as we believe will prove of good value
for the price paid.
Our various Departments include Low
Priced, Medium and Fine Dress Goods,
Black Silks, Colored Silks, Mourning Goods,
Linen Goods, and all Housekeeping Dry
Goods, Blankets, Quilts, Comforts
D,uggets, Nattings, Domestic Cot

The rearing Of chickens has become
precarious business compared to what 1t
was before the introduction of the Aslatlcs,
the Brahmas, Cochins, etc. The old breeds
common to Virginia, Maryland, Delaware
and New Jersey, were hardy and healthy,
recurring little care, great layers, and splr-
tied defenders of their young broods against
hawks, crows, and all other enemies ;.
Chicken cholera, which now sweeps on
whole broods, at times, was unknown In
those days. 1t would pay the farmers bet
ter to 90 back to the old stock, II any can
be found, and doubtless it might be found
in some places not yet visited by the so
called improved breeds" A Delaware
farmer, travelling some years ago in the IN
terror Of Virginia, saw some large, elegantly
formed fowls, the males of Il brilliant rcd
color, erect and Of proud port and bearing;
which he said he would willingly have paid
five dollars apiece for, could he have had
them safely at home.
