In making this claim it may surprise
many, As we take the stand that fod-
der, IL properly used. is worth more
on the farm than the grain. Mind,
however, we say if properly used. The
fodder that Is cut. stacked and left
standing in the fields is not As soluble
as that cured and stacked at the proper
stage and stored under cover. IL the
farmers will keep sheep and cut the
whole stock-leaf included-and feed
with . small proportion Of grain, q
larger profit can be derived than by
feeding corn to any stock. And we 60

According to an official statement y

three earthquakes during the nine
years and six months preceding Decem-
Der. 1884, averaging one earthquake for
every six days and six hours. This

counted, for Prof. Milne was able to
trace an average Of an earthquake per
day in Nagasaki, in the extreme south
Of the Japanese archipelago. The Off
cial statistics, on the other hand. may
possibly be complied from the returns
Of local officials all over the country.
in which case only those shocks
which caused loss Of life or damage
to property would be included. II this
hypothesis is correct, we should have an
average Of more than an earthquake per

Alleged improvements for the Uso u
which Royalties Are Dennandea.
There Is no other industrial pursuit
than agriculture which Is % burdened
with alleged improvements for which
patents have been secured. The farm
er's soul Is vexed with claims for royal
ties from an endless variety Of people
who demand money for the use of de-
vices for which patents have been Sc
cured unjustly. Fences, wells, churns,
gates, harrows. ~clevices and . great
variety Of simple tools and devices
which are used by farmers; and
even methods Of pruning, laying
down trees and vines for winter
protection. and now an old manner Of
making drains. have been patented and
the Use Of them Is denied to the public,
The worst Of il il that the majority Of
these claimants nsc farmers themselves
and do their bcs; 70 tax their brother
farmers without any adequate return
being made. and moreover it causes and
encourages litigation and wastes hard
earned money. This is q matter which
needs reforming. and farmers should
combine to insist upon . deliyeranc
