MISCELLANEOUS RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE

BosToN, Dec. 1O.-The New-York, New

the NewYork and New England Railroad TO form pool

the surplus the two roads This proposition has
been generally regarded by those interested as much
better than the proposed lease TO the Ere Railway Com

only giving it more time because the stalks
are larger and more succulent.
Fodder corn, or corn sowed or planted
for fodder, is an excellent renoyator of new
or foul land that you want to cleanse for
some hoed crop. Planted at this time, il
takes quick hold of the soil, and soon gets
so thick as effectualls to shade it and smo-
ther out everything else. 1t does we'll on
oat or wheat stubble, and the little tfsSbfe
that it requires makes it a very cheap for
age. 1t is at the same time one of the best
and most nutritious Of all fodder plants
Blade fodder is a deserved favorite in this
respect, butthe whole corn, cut at the right
stage, is fa- superior to it, because oil the
sugary and nutritious juices of the plant go
into the fodder. 1t yields more to the acre
than timothy. From experience we recon.
nerd it highly. 1t is a plant so we'll
adapted to our people and section, that, q
mistake is not likely to be made. Thorough
curing is the main point. And perhaps the
varieties of corn best adapted arc the sugar
corn and pop corn. The latter tillers or
suckers abundantly aud increases the pro.
duct. But any kind of corn will payowell
for this purpose.

FODDER CoRN.-Perhaps no forage crop
of SC much intrinsic Importance as this is so
much neglected in the South. No plant
yields SO many pounds Of good fodder per
acre as different varieties of corn.
This week or next is suitable time to
plant corn for fodder. After ploughing
the land deeply, lay off the rows three and
half CT four feet apart, using rather large
shovel to make deep furrow in case the
season should be dry, as that will insure
more moisture to aid the termination of the
seed. Scatter the seed by hand along the
dril At tho rata OF -.ae srata at -Is1sS Co ths
foot as dwarfed plants make better fodder
than overgrown plants. If the plants have
room to grow large the stalks get woody
and hard, and much Of the lower parts is
rejected hy the stock. Plant the corn
thickly along the drill, and cover with the
drag, or by throwing a very light furrow
over them with turn plow.
Pow the corn as soon as it gets a few
inches high, and once or twice more during
the growth Of the crop. Ifwanted for feed
ing green, you may begin to cut in a few
weeks, or as soon as thet corn is foot or
eighteen inches high; and it will continue
to throw out suckers and grow till frost
kills it, if permitted to stand so long. But
if you want it for winter forage, let it grow
till three or four feet high, depending on
the variety of corn, and then with sharp
hoes or glass blade strike the corn down
and let it lie as it falls few days to cure.
After it is near cured, throw it up into
pretty large cocks or mows in the field, to
cure thoroughly before housing it. In this
way, if the weather is favorable. it cures
sweet and nice, and may be put in the barn
Mt the end ola week. In other words, cure
it about as you would clover or timothy,

WINE A Foe TO WoMAN.-Of the worst
foes that woman has ever had to encounter,
wine stands at the head. The appetite for
strong drink in man has sspoiled the lives OF
more ruined more hopes for them,
scattered more fortunes foy them, brought
to them more sorrow, shame, and hardship
than any other evil that lives. The
country numbers tens of thousands
hundreds of thousands of women who are
widows to-day, and sit in hopeless weeds
because their husbands have beea slain by
strong drink. There are hundreds of thou.
cands of homes scattered all over the land,
In which women live lives of torture, going
through all the changes of suffering that
lie between the extremes of fear and despair,
because those whom they love, love wine
better than they do the women they have
sworn to love.-Dr. Holland.
