What Is Needed.

The Temperance work in the past has
made rapid strides, and has accom-
plished a great work, but has not done
what it could, nor all that it should
have done. The great cause of not adj
vancing faster is the want of supplies.
1t is impossible for an army to 90 into
battle expecting to have success unless
they are furnished with supplies, but
this is just what the friends Of Temper
ance have been expecting of their lead
ers. They have expected that this war
fare was to be carried on against the
most powerful combination in the
world, running business that pays an
enormous profit, and with all the money
they need, without any money from
those who advocate and favor the cause.
The money contributed by the advocates
of this Temperance cause for its sup
port does not amount to one-hundredth
part of that contributed by its oppo-
nents. This is all wrong, and should
not be so, but that it is so is an undeni-
able fact A cause doing so much for
humanity as the Temperance should re-
ceive the hearty support of its friends.
Not only is it true that the Temperance
people proper do not support the cause,
but it is also true that the churches, who
should be deeply interested in this
question, do not aid the work as they
should. There is wealth enough among
the Christian portion of our COM
munity to supply the Temperance cause
with all the money needed, and never
feel it. Our people contribute to every
other cause, and literally, too, but
when it comes to Temperance they get
close, and seem to think very little will
go a great way. Our people contribute
literally for the support of the poor.
This is commendable; but when we take
into consideration that nine-tenths of
the poverty of the land is caused by
strong drink, would it not be better to
contribute to the suppression of the
evil, rather than providing for its re-
suits. Our people also contribute
literally to the support of the Prisoners
Aid Society, the necessity for which eX-
lists only as the result Of the drink hab-
it. Would it not be better to contribute
to that cause which eradicates all these
evils. We think it would. The pres
ent condition of the Temperance cause
is such that it only needs liberal pc
cuniary support to make it a perma-
nent success at a very early day. Whilst
this support is withheld the day of final
triumph will always be in the future.
Our people need to be educated upon
this question of giving, and we hope
they will not be dull scholars, but will
learn rapidly, and when educated put
their education in practice.
Our churches need to be enlightened
as to their duty in this matter They
should give hearty support to the
cause. They can raise thousands for
missionary purposes, which is all right,
and for this work equally as important
as the missionary cause, but few hun
bred dollars.
We hope our people will realize the
Importance of money in the prosecution
of our work, and give. it. baltimore

Selling Old Corn.

"Tim Bunker" the veteran agri-
cultural writer of Connecticut, used to
claim that it was ruin to sell old corn.
That is, ruin to the farmer. As usual,
"Tim" hit the nail squarely on the
head. Many farmers, by careful man
agement, succeed in holding a good
share of their old corn until it is nearly
time to harvest the new crop. Corn is
then up at good price, and it is usual
ly considered good policy to sell out be-
fore the new crop is pushed upon the
market 1t is poorpolicy to sell corn at
all if it can be fed out upon the farm,
and it is certainly very poor policy to
sell good hard corn, even if it does
bring few cents more per bushel,
and then fatten your own stock upon
new corn. Hogs should be fattened
before the cold weather sets in, and
there is nothing that will do the werl
tip so expeditiously and cheaply as oil
corn. A bushel of it seems to go as ia
as two of the new crop. There is n
gaseous fermentation going on in the
old corn as there is in the new, conse
quently it is safer feed for any stock.
Old corn can also be ground, If desired,
and mixed with other food.
Again, there is always risk in sell
ing out the old crop before the new is
fully ripe, as in our latitude we are al
ways liable to frosts, after the first of
September. We can never feel abso-
lutely sure of a crop of corn until it be-
gins to harden in the ear.
The main difficulty with the majority
of our farmers is, that thev have so
managed as to be actually obliged to
sell crop, whether the price be re-
munerative or otherwise. How fire.
quently we have seen farmers sell corn
in the fall for twenty-five cents per
bushel, selling themselves short in order
to meet obligations overdue, and then
buy in the spring for forty cents per
bushel Instead of buying stock and
feeding out their grain upon their
farms, they are obliged to keep their
stock sold down in order to pay the in
terest upon mortgage or other debts.
Many rundown farm owes its present
condition to an overhanging mortgage,
which not only deprived the farmer and
his family of their rightful income
but saps the very fertility from the land
Itself. Western PIoaonaGH,

Measuring Cord Wood in Timber.

The question asked by correspond
ent as to how many cords of wood
thousand feet of logs will make, is very
fairly answered by another correspond
ent. The amount will depend very
largely on the size of the logs, and also
upon the straightness, smoothness and
taper Of the timber 1t is often impor-
tant to know whether particular
bunch of timber would bring more if
sold in the log than if cut into wood. In
scaling for lumber, log is always
measured at the smaller end A crooked
log is "docked = enough to. make it
straight. In very crooked timber this
will sometimes amount to third or
one-half of what the log contains, for.
the scale is simply an estimate of the
amount of lumber, board measure, that
can be cut from the log, and crooked
timber must be made straightin saving.
In ordinary pine, comparatively free
from limbs, the top end of twelve-foot
log is about two inches smaller than the
butt. In short, limby or g buckwheat''
pine, there are often two or three times
this difference.
'Doyle's rule" for scaling is almost
universally used in Michigan. This
rule is very simple one. A sixteen
foot log is taken as the standard. Take
the diameter of the smaller end, deduct
four inches for slab, and the square of
the remaining diameter will give the
contents of the log. For example: A
log is "a inches through; deduct
inches, square the remaining 20 inches,
and we have 400 feet as the contents of
the log. The same rule applies to all
sizes Of logs-a log IL inches through,
16 feet long, scaling "a feet, and one 8
inches 16 feet. Longer on shorter
lengths are got by multiplying by the
required fraction, II feet being and
20 feet II of 16. It will be readily seen
that thousand feet of small logs will
contain much more wood than a thou
sand feet of large logs, because there is
so much more slab. A thousand feet of
logs inches in diameter would furnish
250 slabs for wood, while there would
be only 10 slabs in the same quantity of
logs "a inches through. have seen p
cords of 16 inch wood cut from the slabs
of thousand feet of small logs, though
this would be as much as could be OBJ
tanned from the entire contents of the
same amount of large logs-Cor.
