Will tho Coming Woman Marry t.

Will tho Coming Woman Marry?
The conclusion Of inhexible logic is that, il
the coming woman is to he free, equal, indie
pendent, and to have open to her all the ways
Of a great career, she viii not marry. As to
posterity, she owes it nothing. She can be as
exalted above that as the Shakers. Or If the
debt to rosterity is to continue, the elevated
woman can relegate it to the lower order.
On the other hand, IL the coming woman
shall marry, she will be about the same mar
ner Of woman CD she that is now the sweet
ener Of the cup of happiness; and the talk and
laws of emancipation and equality will be all
in vain against nature which makes her
subject to man. Therefore, the abiding faith
in the future elevation of woman, ard that
tho taste of liberty AID education which she
has now got will work in her a great trans
formation, is logically obliged to believe that
the coming woman win not n1arry.-CinciD-

Groon Food supply.

...a.#. sH
Groom Food supply.
While summer lasts it is not a very
difficult matter to keep up a good sup,
ply Of green food Of different kinds
for the poultry, even when they are
confined to comparatively small yards;
| but when Jack Frost asserts his sway,
whitening and browning the vegeta-
tion of all kinds within his reach. the
outside supply of "greens" is suddenly
| cut short, and unless provisions have
been made in anticipation Of this. the
poultry will be deprived of one great
essential to success. Those who have
enough land for a good sized garden
can generally find to grow
enough green food for the winter sup.
ply of their birds, and poultry breed
ers who have large numbers of birds
and plenty of land make it a point to
grow a lot of green food especially for
their fowls.
The easiest vegetable to grow for
this purpose, and one which is also the
best on account Of its excellent keep
ing qualities. is cabbage. Those who
grow cabbage for home use in good
quantities, or who grow it for market
purposes, need not grow it especially
for the poultry, for there are generally
enough loose, spongy heads and waste
leaves to give quite a large flock of
fowls a generous and regular supply.
Where there is not room enough on
the place to grow tho necessary winter
greens, a good supply,say one hundred
or more heads. of cabbage should be
bought when the farmers and market
gardeners are selling it off briskly in
the fall, at which time 1t can be bought
much cheaper than during the winter.
In buying it. have it delivered with
the roots on, just as it is pulled from
the ground. Now take some good sand
and put it in a dark part of the cellar,
in which plant the cabbage deeply, up
to the head, packing the cabbage as
closely together as possible, and draw
ing the leaves up nicely around it. In
this way cabbage IA be kept fresh
and good until spring, while it can
always DO readily gotten when needed.
1t can be kept nicely packed in the
ground (though inverted) out in the
garden or near by the house, and we'll
covered with soil to protect it from the
frost. but it is frequently anything but
a "labor of love- to get at it after a
heavy freeze. Turnips, turnip tops,
beets, onions. etc, are also used for the
poultry during the winter, but cannot
compare with cabbage for ~cheapness
and hardness. 1t is time now to be
planning to procure a winter supply
of green stuff for poultry.-American

Handlinx EnsiIage.

4 Elder Evans. Of Mount Lebanon, N.
Y. gives the following as his method
OF taking corn-stalks from the field:
He uses two poles about twenty feet
long, extending the wheels. The corn
= stalks are put across these. This is a
very handy loading and unloading.
"We cut up aload," he says Gin about
five minutes. 1t is carried up sixteen
feet above the driving floor in the
south and nerth corners of the barn,
which is built Of stone, and is 1876 feet
long and so wide. A floor strong
enough for all weights. say barrels of
sand, is built over the driving floor,
extending from the top of one silo to
the other. Here they are entirely out
of the way. We have doors into the
silos on each floor. The silos are
thirty-seven floors, where the cattle
stand. When we open a silo, we take
off all the weights and cut a tunnel
down to the middle floor, just large
enough to throw the ensilage down.
There we have a trap door in the next
door. through which we pass it by a
tube into a box on wheels, containing
enough to- feed all the stock on one
side5of the stables. We use movable
iron boxes TO feed in. They swing in
andsout. Thus We take the ensilage
from the whole top every day. We
are feeding ensilage twice a day
to our whole herd of seventy-hve

COWS ana tho Curry-oomn.

1t is probable that not one farmer
To a hundred aver thinks of using
such a thing as the curry comb and
brush on his cows, although those In
struments are used regularly in the
horse stable. Yet there is just as
much necessity for keeping the skin
OF the COW in good condition as that
of the horse. No matter whether the
COW is suffered to run at large in the
pasture all the time. or is kept in a
stable or corral and fed, the process Of
currying and brushing will consume
but little time and the farmer will be
amply repaid for his trouble, both in
the better appearance and increased
yield given by the cows for their good
treatment That a currying is necess-
airy for the health and is grateful to
the animals may be seen by the habit
which cows have Of "brushing" each
other for q half-hour at a time with
the spiny surface Of their tongues.
The evident signs Of satisfaction
which they give when undergoing
this process should furnish aihint to
the observant farmer which needs but
little trouble to act upon. In some
parts Of Europe where cows are kept
In the barn nearly all the time, their
coats are 8 carefully combed and at
tended TO as is the hair ofaschild's
head, and II is regarded as a matter
of necessity. No doubt this suggss-
ton may be laughed at by many who
are, accustomed TO lot both horses and
cows go almost uncared FOR from one
years end 10 smother; but the fact
nevertheless remains thst keeping .

Keeping Cabbage. i'm winter.

In the usual way Of keeping cab
bage in the winter, there is a consider
able loss by freezing and decay. In
attempting to avoid this waste, we
have tried with success the method of
pitting here described. A long pit
three feet deep, and a little wider lit
may be made as wide as desirabIe),
was dug out on a part of the field
where the soil was dry and sandy, and
there was no danger that water would
enter. The bottom of the pit was
loosened up. so that the first tier of
the caobages were planted in it., the
stems being set so deep that the heads
rested on the soil. The cabbages of
the next tier were set alternately be-
tween the lower ones, having the roots
partly in the soil. A third tier was
placed on the second, but reversed,
with the roots upward. All the soft
h ads were put at the top. Straw was
laid between the stems, leaving the
roots out, and earth was thrown upon
the straw, burying the roots three or
four inches. In pulling the cabbages
the roots were all taken up with them,
and not cut off. A covering of boards
was laid on the pit, to shed rain. In
the spring these cabbages came out in
the best conoition; the soft heads had
filed up, and none of the cabbages
had been frozen.
