Eat With Comfort and Bc Happy

1t is by no means uncertain, but, on the con.
well being of mans stomach depends that
modicum of happiness which is vouchsafed ia
him In this world. Dyspepsia, the foe of all
others to the stomach's tranquility, and most
to be dreaded.is a complaint to the preliminary
relief and eventual cure of which Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters is specially adapted 1t ena-
bles those who use it with reasonable degree
of persistence to eat with relish, because il
imparts a healthful appetite; to digest wit b
ease because it strengthens the stomach and to
assimilate the food which is eaten and digest
sustaining the exercise Of the physical and
mental faculties. It, moreover, faci itates the
secretion of healthy bile. actua es without dis
comfort the habit of the body, and tends, when
taken upon retiring, to produce healthy slum
ber. Malaria is conquered by it.

A Discrepancy That Needs Men ding. -.

BosToN, September 28.-The Depart
ment of the State of Massachusetts, has
written to Senator Hoar, calling his at
tention to the following discrepancies in
the electoral college laws: The United
States statutes provide that the messen-
gers from the electoral colleges in the
various States shall deliver copies of the
votes of the colleges to the President of
the Senate before the first Wednesday in
January. The colleges have met hereto
fore on the first Monday in Decent ber.
but the law passed by Congress in 1887
changed the time of meeting to the Sec
ond Monday in January, while the pro-
vision regarding the delivery of the vote
was left unaltered. The question will
have to be settled by the authorities at
Washington.

GRASSES FOR THE MIDDLE
STATES.

All varieties of live stock are fond
of and thrive on bluegrass does not
yield sufficient food to justify it's being
sown on other than woodlands or
broken lands that are not suitable for
tilling, unless sown in connection with
other grasses. Clover will yield much
more pasturing per acre than any
grass known, and at the same time en-
rich the land more than any other
kind of grass. One pound of timothy
should be sown with every Z lbs. Of
clover, when sown for pasture or for
hay. Every farm should have a tim
othy meadow in proportion to the
number Of horses kept, as timothy hay,
for horses, is preferable to that made
from any other kind of grass, but l
prefer clover hay for every other kind
OF stock. There are other grasses that
do we'll in certain localities. Nest-top
is the best grass to raise on wet land.
Alfalfa is an excellent grass in coun-
tries where irrigation is practiced. Or
chard grass thrives well in shady
places on rich land, but grows tufts
unless sown very thick and it is a fair
grazing grass. Tall-oat grass and
meadow-fascue grow too much in tufts,
like orchard grass; to make a close
smooth sod. The three first mentioned
grasses r superior to all others; for
grazing, bluegrass and nest clover, for
hay, timothy and clover.-C. 4. Hon.

ONE MANS EXPERIENCE.

[ wrote once saying that [ had
filled my silo for six times, and that
last year, as 1 planted sweet corn and
it was not large, l could dry it, and
thus have a rest from putting in ensi-
lage, and therefore would not fill my
silo; but l may fill it again this year
or next. If one raises Is to 25 tons
of corn fodder per acre, he should put
it in a slo cut up fine, and it will pay
him to do so. My cattle relish it,
and would thrive on a ration of one
half ensilage and one-half hay, with
some shorts or meal. Ny silo was
made of stone, cement and sand, and
held about $50 tons, with a partition
through the middle. [ cut the ensi-
lage by horse power into three-fourths-
inch lengths, and weighted with sand
about a foot deep upon the planks on
top. We had good ensilage, with no
decay to speak of. But | believe that
if we can raise sweet corr and sell the
ears and carefully cure the fodder, it
is the best plan, when you take into
account the cost of filing the silo.-
