New England Farmer.
the forage value of Indian corn is becoming
better appreciated at the West. as well as at the
East Professor Shelton has been making some
experiments at the Kansas State Agricultural
College with thick and thin planting of
corn. and concludes that the Western farmers
would make gain by planting thicker
for the purpose Of securing finer, setter
slower, to be we'll cured and used more
largely substitute for hay IN winter. He
finds that sixty five bushels Of corn and two tons
of good fodder per acre can be easily grown on
the college farm, and that such a mass of stock
feed affords farmers a resource which they have
scarcely thought Of The fodder of corn, as or
dinarily grown and cared for, or as ordinarily
neglected, especially by the Western farmer,
is coarse and not very valuable feed
and but small returns are received
from it. The usual course pursued by the ma
iorty of the farmers. as we observed while
making trip through the corn regions of
the West, last year, is to pull off the ears
from the standing corn, husk carelessly, and
throw them into large wagons, which sre
drawn through the standing corn, and then
turn in a few cows or other animals to pick
up what they may. There seemed to be very
little thought of corn fodder and practically lit
tie use made of ii. The difficulty seems to be
that the farmers raise the grain of the corn to
sell, and have very few animals to consume the
fodder. IT Professor Shelton can convince the
farmers of the West that they are allowing a
great waste by their present methods of raising
and disposing OF the corn crop, he will be doing
them and the country good work.

If you turn i book upside down and

much smaller ut the bottom than at

properly held, both halves appear the
same size to the eye.
The upper part of tho typo that
prints the letter s is made smaller
than the lower half TO correct the
fault of the eye, which always slightly
cxaggcratcs tho former. When the
letter is turned over. this same trick

it would still look uneven.
In greater matters, the false report

with perfectly straight sides. 1t would
look 10 us-for, you see, We really can
not trust our own eyes-as if it were
followed in q little; or, as We should
say in more scientific langusge, its
sides would appear concavc.
Those clever Greeks, who did 80
many marvellous things in art, thought
all this out, and made their architect
urc upon principles SO subtle and SO
comprehensive that We have never
been able to improve on them since.
They found that their beautiful Doric
Columns, if mado with straight sides,
had the concavc effect of which have
spoken; aad so, with the most deli
cate art in the world, they made the
pillar swell little- >. the middle, and
then il appeared exactly right.
This swelling Of the column at its
m.dIie was called cn;asis. OF course

delicate measurements; but it added

has the appearance of sagging toward
the middle. The Greek architect cor
rectcd this fault By making his lines
raise little. The front Of the Par
thenon, at Athens, is one hundred and
one feet three and half inches long,
and, in this, the rise from the hori-
zontal is about two and one eighth in-
c,ies. In other words. there is a curv-
ature upward that makes tia little
more than two inches higher in the
centre then at the ends, and the effect
of this swelling upward is to make the
lines appear perfectly level. Indeed

an architectural paradox. The grace

straight, are made to lean inward lit
tie, since. if they we're perfectly true
and plumb. they would have the cf-
feet of leaning outward. The pillars
st the corners slant inward more than
the others. and everywhere the corners
are made to look square by being in
truth little broader angled. and lines
are curved in order that they shall
appear straight to the eye.-Arto 6atss
