So far as silos, constructed and
used last season, have come under
our observation, they have not with.
stood well the combined action OF
acetie acid and water and moisture
This relates to silos constructed OF
stone under ground and plastered
with hydraulic cement. The cement,
under the combined action OF the
acid and external water, will crumble
and rail- off, leaving wide areas OF
the walls In denuded condition. In
all silos acetic acid is developed to
greater or less extent, and this, in
the torn of vapor, comes iE contact
with the lime in the cement and
forms fixed salt, an acetate. When
this occurs the wall is weakened, and
falls as suon IS the contents OF the
silo aFe removed. II should be
known that eerented walls are not
imperyious to the inflow of water
Although cisterns will hold water, if
lett empty in wet places, water will
ind its way through from without,
and numerous silos constructed on
the sides of hills where there are
springs were found to have several
feet OF water in them last spring
Considerable loss resulted from this
cause. All silos should be construct
ed with drains, and it is very import
an! that the drains should be trap-
ped, so as to prevent current of air
from passing in under the contents
Of the silo. AS rule, where silos
are constructed under ground it will
be better to plans them inside OF
rough, dry wall. The planks will
last many years and need but few
repairs. 1t ensilage is to hold its
place in popular estimation, much is
to be learned in regard to the cons
structi"n OF pits, and in methods OF
ensilaging. There is little doubt but
that the cutting process, which is so
expensive aud laborious, may be dis
pensed with, and il will be found
that it is better to partially dry the
fodder III the field before putting it
into The pits. Ii twenty FIVE per
cent. OF the water is removed it will
cost much less TO handle the todder,
and the value will not be in The least

For The Happiness Of Home.
From Clergyman's Home Comes q
Message Containing the Wisdom
&c Evnarianoa

Home is the centre of the social system. From
1t proceed the best and purest influences felt in
the world, and towards il graviates the tenderest
while their working days last, and around 1t
their last thoughts linger lovingly when those
days are done.
Yet home does not usually approach in practice
its own ideals The mother is OVertaxed with
household duties and the rearing and training of
her children, while the father fights the outside
battle to win the wherewithal to meet expenses.
Sooner or later care and toll leave their marks.
1t is true enough as Kingsley sings in the Three
Fishers" that
Men must work and women must weep"
but too much working and weeping brush all the
bloom from life's fruit.
Mental anxiety and lack of rest and pleasure
induce physical diseases of many kinds; whence

The lady who attempts to keen pace
with the fashions must needs be ex-
tremely careful as to every particular in
her costu1ning. as to cut and quality of
each garment, and as to when, how and
where to wear them. ssas
There are ten Thousand laws as in
exorable as those of the Meaes and Per-
SLAMS. of which fashion demands observ-
ance concerning the most minute and
trifling of the m1ltitudineus details that
go toward the makeup of the fashion
able woman.

known fashion journal says: 'sAnnie of
Austria collarettes are suitable only for

of these edicts of fashion, an incident:

portion of their conversation.
Said one; You notice that / have on

never had.

been listening TO this conversation,
