Soiling Cattle,

Under certain circumstances sollng
cows-that is feeding them with green
crops grown and cut for them-nas been
found very profitable. Pro-. Henry Of
the Wisconsin Experiment Station gives
his experience of soiling as follows
BY solllng IN summer certain area
of land will yield double the amount of
milk and butter that it will when pas
tured. The large amount, or rather
great weight, of food consumed daily
VIII be a surprise TO many who have not
carefully weighed green food for stock.
In the month of June our cows con-
sumed Ito pounds of hrst-crop clover
daily each. Our results show that for
one season AT least Just as good results
can be had from half the land by soiling
as when pasturing. The cost of the
two methods will not be discussed, as
We would institute no comparison that
would be at all applicable TO the gener-
al darymen from this trial. The time
OF man and team going to and from the
field for the clover and corn for our
three cows was the same as for large
herd. This part of the problem can
easily be left TO the practical dalrvman
to figure out for himself But no mat
ter how or what the figures show, let
our dairyman and farmers wake up to
the necessity of partial soiling in mid
summer. when the pastures grow short.
We kept three cows up to July 18th on
p acres, but at that date the grass be-
gan to fail and We bad to fall back on
/. 10 acres additional. Had we not done
this We would have injured the first
pasture seriously, if not ruined it, Tor
fall feed. and had the cows drop off
largely in milk; here would have been
a double loss. and one of no small mag
nitude. By having had good area in
soiling crops 10 fall back upon we might
have partially soiled these cows for a
couple of months and so not needed
this Observation-Disclosures at all. With
out a soiling crop TO fall back upon, the
farmer who stocks his pasture to It's ca
pacity IN early summer will find the
grass cropped too short in midsummer
and decreased flow of milk; if he does
not stock 10 the early summer capacity
be loses by so much, ss the grass grows
long and remains uneaten. Let partial
soIlIng become more common In Wis
consin land everywhere. and We can
by an increased milk AMI butter yield
largely make up for the lower prices for
the product. He who practices partial
soiling for season, by the results OBJ
tanned can Judge whether or not it viii
pay him TO extend the practice"

Foreign Live stock.

In the London Agricultural Gazette,
few weeks ago, was long editorial
showing, or trying TO show, that the ex
ports OF live stock to foreign countries,
for breeding purposes is rather detri
ment than otherwise to English farmers.
1t objected very seriously TO foreigners
buying every kind of choice stock,
and made the rather startling assertion
that the foreigner has been the cause
OF halt the farmers troubles during the
past twenty years" In Nav, 1888, the
exports of live stock from the United
Kingdom amounted to nearly el0o, 600,
hut this trade of nearly elo0,oO0 per
month goes into the pockets Of body
which must be estimated by thousands
only-for the breeders of choice farm
stock OF all kinds are not, even now, a
large percentage of the whole number
of farmers" The money sent into the
Kingdom by foreigners thus goes into
the pockets of the rich farmers, while
that paid To foreigners-mostlv for food
products-is paid by the whole 81 900,
600 inhabitants of Great Britain. This
Is what troubles the Gazette, and makes

Classification of soils.

Prof. Johnston Classics soils, ae-
cordlng to their clayey or sandy pro-
portions, thus:
/. Pure clay from which no sand can
be washed
;. Strong clay or brick clay, which
contains from ) to % per cent. of sand.
) Clay loan, which contains from 20
to 40 per cent. of sand.
4. Loan, which has from 10 to 20 per
cent. Of sand
8. Sandy loan, which has from 20 to
~ per cent. of sand.
3. Light sand, which has less than 10
per cent. o. clay.
Sandy soils, then, are those which CON
slst mainly of grains of sabd, or silica. or
hint, and IS called siicious SOIL Nat
ure never bestowed upon man soil of
greater capability of being made lasting
ly fertile than the sandy, light soil
Grayelly soils need no description,
though there are rich gravels and poor
gravels, depending upon the rocks of
which they are composed. and the sub
stances which are mixed among them.
Clay soils consist LARGELY of alumina,
that is, having such abundance of clay
that 1t is called the "clay metal" Clay
itself is compound of silica sand,
acid, alumina and water 1t also con-
tains potash, soda and lime. 1t forms
compact, fatty earth, soft to the touch,
sticky IN moist state and very hard
when dry.
Chaiky soils have been formed from
rocks IN which lime WAS abundant.
Peaty soils need no description, al
though they differ very widely.
Alluvial soils are formed bv deposits
of sand. loan and gravel brought down
By rivers. They are very rich, being
composed of multitude of thin layers
OF mud, in which all sorts of fertilizing
material is mixed. Loamy soils contain
a Large portion OF decayed matter, hui
mus or muck, as it is called. Woody
fiber in a state of decay acquires dark
color, and ultimately becomes mold.

that very town of Cumberland in honor
of the nomination of Gen. HarrIsOn's
grandfather II formed one Of the most
novel features of the TippecsnOe cam
paign. and was rolled from Cumberland
10 Baltimore, where IL was subsequently,
broken up for kindling wood. That bali,
however, was not nearly as large or
elaborate as the one which is To be
started rolling IN this parade.
The ball Is a canyss-covered sphere.
AZ feet In circumference, and is built
about an immense wheel or riIn on
which it rolls This wheel is about s
inches thick, OF heavy wood, with
quarter-inch iron tire From it's inside
edge IS iron hoops bend toward the
poles, and upon these the canvas cover
is stretched, the number being symbol
zeal of the states of the Union. Fifteen
gross of screws and lbs bolts were used
IN the construction of the monster, and
the whole weighs over 900 pounds,
though 1t rolls easily and NAV be pro-
PEELED by a couple of men. The shaft
of the ball is piece of 3-inch gas pipe,
which projects one foot at either pole.
On this are fastened two standards,
working on rollers, to prevent the ball
from topping over. Ropes can also be
rugged to the shaft, so that enthusiastic
10 publlcans can pun the monster along
like fire-engine.
The ball was made by D. E. Broekett,
of Cumberland. Md, who will accom-
pany it on much of its travels. In red
letters on one end are painted the
words: Cumberland, Allegany Co.,
Mary land" Some of the other mot
toes are as follows:
