Amidst life's care and fret

And oh. the rides and walks,
The confidential talks
And picnics manifold.
The songs we used to sing
And all that sort OF thing;
No wonder grew bold.

Who oft her hand would hold,
While she with roguish art
Would scold and play her paIt;
This maiden bright as gold.
Now children two or three.
That prattle at her knee,
Their little hearts unfold.
But oh the bitter shame,
They do not know my name;
For !, alas was sold.

And we are growing old.

She found her intellect greatly

4 Sanitary Instrument.

An apparatus for measuring the
proportion of oarbonic acid in the air
Of room has been patented by Pro.
fsssor Wolpert, Of Nuremberg. BY
means OF q siphon arrangement, a
drop of red liquid-soda- solution
with phenol phthalsin--is made to
trickle down a prepared white thread,
about foot and halflong, every 100
seconds. In pure air the drop con-
times red down to the bottom, but it
loses its color by the action of car
bonio acid, the quickness Of the effect
varying with the amount of that gas
present. Air is assumed to be dis.
tinctly unwholesone when its carbonic
acid exceeds one part in 100; and the
scale placed behind the thread gives
indications from "pure air" Cup to or
per lo0O) to "extremely bad" Grom

j. N. Barrett is again the foreman OF

for us for thirty months, he, little less
than year ago, purchased an interest in
the Republican, and went to work on that
paper. We supposed he had "made bis

left that paper, and took the foremanship
of the Tribune.
We mention these things as indicative
of the fact that Mr.. Barrett, in returning
to this Office, shows faith in its stability
which is gratifying to us and will be 80

that this paper is the best advertising

wire nails, and clinch through the three
thicknesses; and then the roof will be a
truss rafter roof and can't be sprung
apart.
The roof can be covered with roof
boards and shingles, or an iron roof can
be used. On the outside of the studding,
the building can be covered as cheaply
or as well as the farmer may desire; the
cover will add nothing to the better
keeping of the silage. It will be simply
matter of looks. If weather boarded,
the spaces between the studdings should
not be filled in with any material like
sawdust, tan bark, etc. They are each
and all better away, and it is even better
to make the outside bottom boards a
little "scant" at the sill, to allow free
circulation of air between the studding.
Inside of the silo floor made of lum-
Der, gravel, cement or the like is wholly
unnecessary. The better and cheaper
way is to pound in clay enough to cover
the cross-ties, and come up few inches
on the inside facing of the silo walls.
This is all that needs be done; 80 far as
making a good floor, cement is not as
good as good clay, we'll hammered down.
An inch or two of straw can be scattered
over the bottom if thought best, but it is
not necessary. The ground close to the
silo can be graded away SO as to have the
silo on the highest ground, and then
surface water cannot do damage
Weights and covers can be dispensed
with for the reason that there is no use
for them, and everything that will
economic labor should be accepted.
Weights we're used when filling a big
silo in day; they we're deemed essential,
and that cover must be put on to the
silage before we went to bed. A great
weight was put on to press out the air,
when, if moments thought had been
taken it would have been seen that as
quick as the silage became hot, the air
would have been forced out aud much
more effectually than when an alright
cover is put on and then pressure applied
The new idea is to cook the silage, and
prevent acetic or vinegar acid formation,
q scientific find out" that the Western
silo men have practiced from the start,
and are away ahead of the Eastern farm
ers il Eastern silo literature is to be
accepted as an indication of general
practice. This cooking the silage has
many things to recommend it. First,
one gets sweet or ripened silage. 1t
compacts more in the silo than any
weight applied on the cover can &C
complish. It avoids acetic or sour ensil-
age, and gets silage with a mild form OF
tactic or milk sugar acid; it enables one
to fill the silo with the usual amount OF
farm help, and reduce silage making to a
minimum expense; it gives food for
stock that has no Objectionable features
and is material ont of which the finest
butter and cheese can be made.
