FARM NOTES

a LENGTH no Our CORN Ft JDDER.- -
Numbered with interestlngex ex .beriments
reported upon by Professor I shelton, Of
the Kansas Agricultural col tege, is the
one relating to the prOpeG length to
cut corn fodder. Accordu az to the pro
fessor's report the finely c'Ac fodder was
much less attractive and palatable 10
the animals than when cut into coarser
lengths, and the uneaten portions. the
sswaste," were greatly Increased by the
excessive reduction.
A number of the cows were fed for
one week upon corn fodder reduced to
quarter inch lengths, the week follow
ing the same corn fodder cut INTO incl
lengths, and the week following they
were furnished fodder cut Into two.
inch lengths. Care was taken that
each animal received Just about what
previous experience had shown 1t would
''eat up clean.'' The COWS were fed
night ana morning as usual, but before
feeding the next day the esldue in the
managers was carefully weighed. The
result Of these trials is shown In
tabular form rs follows:

Length Of Cut. lbs. lbs. waste,
onc-fourth inch. 4so 2e5 IS
Ono inch. 4i0 $50 38
Two inches. 4s0 1l6 RI
Professor Shelton offers the follow
ing explanation Of the above results:
''As ordinarily prepared, the blades of
the corn plant are the only part having
nutritive value. The stalk portion and
the husks are, for the most part, indl.
gestible, tasteless, woody fibre. When
fodder is cut into very short lengths,
these dissimilar partya are inextricab'y
intermixed; the animal is unable to ex-
trlcate them, and in rejecting the worth
less portion, IS forced to discard much
that Is valuable; hence, the greatly In
creased waste when the shorter
lengths were used. The additional ad-
vantage IN the use Of the longer
lengths in the great saving Of power
required to cut given weight of fodder
is very considerable item, not likely

The sparrow Is not guilty Of half
the deprodatlOns that are lald to him.
They come to the very thresholds Of
your dwellings to pick up insects and
vermin. They destroy enough weevil
and worms to more than compensate
for the grain they eat. Insects in new
forms are constantly appearing in our
gardens and orchards, and to pester
our stock. Let us be cautions that we
are not destroying q valuable assistant
In this war upon the sparrow. Such
mistakes have been made from the
days witches were hung to appease
popular clamor.
A few years ago the writer built q
large bird house which has been occu-
pied every summer by blue birds, mar
tins and sparrows, dwelling together in
peace and harmony, setting sgood

borhoOd. have a largo gourd shell
with holes in the sides, prepared for a
home for sparrows, and I shall watch
their habits with interest, believing
them to be useful bird, having their

the laws OF God.

ticipation in the Recent Plot.
CHICAGO, July 25.-The drag net of tho law
enmeshed today another of the anarchists who
sought revenge upon the representatives of
the law in the persons of Bonfeld, Gary and
Grinnell.
gunsmith named Rudolph Sebic was ar
rested before daylight this morning and is now
behind prison bars, under bonds of 81 600 He
is charged with being the individual who fur
nished dynamite to the conspirators who in
tended to assassinate the three law officers
most prominent in the Haymarket prosecu-
ton.
Sebic acknowledged that he has been illegal
ly dealing with dynamite, and that he has sold
over fifty pounds of the explosive to various
persons within year. He will only admit
having sold ten pounds to Ghicagoans, and as
serts that he either never know or cannot re-
member who they were. Inspector Bonfeld
says he has proof that ten pounds, ii not more,
went TO Hronek, Chapek and Chleboun.
Sebic's arrest was kept secret until the mo-
meut whom he was arraigned in court this
morning. In the meantime he had been sub
Jected to vigorous pumping process by In
spector Bonfeld.
The proceedings in court occupied but a few
moments, and consisted of simply putting the
case on record and fixing the bond heavy
enough to hold the gunsmith, and continuing
further proceedings for week. The grand
jury, already impaneled to take up the case OF
Sebic's alleged co-conspirators, will long be-
fore that time, it is expected have formally
indicted all concerned in the dabolical plot.
CHICAGO, July 25.-Indictments for con-
spiracy to commit murder was found by the
grand jury today against four anarchist con-
spirators.
Chelbaun was the most important witness
for the state His story was complete con-
fession OF the plot and he also told officers on
July Sd and 4th to go to Justice Grinnell's
house in Aldine square, and Judge Garry's
house on Northside The state has his CON
fesson in full 1t is expected that
the evidence against the other conspirators
is so complete as 10 warrant conviction. 1t
is thought an indictment will be returned
against Chelbaun. and he will be granted inn
munity in consideration OF testimony given by
him at trial.

JOE BROWNS LOG CASTLE.
Where the Governor Went When Milledge-
Vile Fell Into Federal Hands.

describes q famous building at Cordele, stu

Southern and Florida. and the Americas Pres

Of NJ. Forth uses the old Brown mansion q
house of entertainment. 1t was here that our
patriotic ex-governor who has been the best
abused man in Georgia, but nevertheless the
peer of any statesman the empire state has
ever produced, sought refuge when N1illedge-
vile was no longer safe from federal raids
Hence arose the apochryphal story of the re-

from the toothsome imported stocks of our
present venerable senator. The edifice, which
closely resembles q frontier block house with
Its massive hewn logs nicely fitted and inper-
Vlous to grape shot and mesketry, commands
q fine view from its lofty eminence of the fer
tile plain below, which takes in the
whole town and sketches far away into
the distance. In front still hangs
the rusty bell which was won't in antebellum
days to summon the faithful slaves of his ex-
cellency to their meals, or arouse them from
their SAUNDERS in the hours of the morning.
All else is changed, and now the shrill whistle
OF the locomotive and the busy hum of COM
merce tell of the lapse Of long years, and
new era in the progress of the country. For
considerable time the governor made this his
abode and headquarters, and the quaint old
building, with its broad and wnd-swept hail.

MR. RANDALL'S SICKNESS.
His Physicians Deny That He Has Canoe,
of the Stomach

WASHINGTON, July 23.-The report is pub
lished today that Samuel j. Randall is suffer-
ing from cancer OF the stomach. His physi-
clans, who have been treating Mr. Randall,
were seen by an Associated Press reporter to-
day, and both explicitly denied the published
statement. Later in the day the following
official statement was given to the press:
=, Cur attention having been called to statement
in the New York World of this morning, to the
effect that Mr.. Randall is suffering from cancer Of
the stomach, we would state that this assertion is
entirely erroneous. Mr. Randall is not suffering
from cancer on the stomach and we do not know
how such a mistaken idea should have arisen. No
such diagnosis has been thought of by us
The associated press agent in Philadelphia
interviewed DR.. Martin, specialist, who at
tended Mr.. Randall at his home in former at
tacks, and who has visited him here since the
present attack began Dr. Martin says sub
stantially the same as the Washington physi-
clans. The three doctors age of one mind as to
Mr.. Randall's ailments. The condition of
Randall is much run down, and has been very
near death, but he is now gaining slowly but
steadily It is the present intention to remove
Mr.. Randall from the city Monday next
