ANOTHER ALLEGHENY PARK.
MIR. Samuel Watsou's Woods Wanted for
the New Project.


the New Project.
Ex-Councilman Samuel Watson, of AL
1egheny, stated to DISPATCH reporter last
evening that a gentleman representing an
electric railway in Allegheny had approached
him recently and asked him if he would sell
100 acres of the woodland in the Tenth ward
for park purposes He was told by the gentle
man that he was acting in the interest of a
company. Mfr. Watson told him he would sell
the land if the company would give him
enough money for it.
, This is as far as the negotiations have gone
at present. The woodland which is back of
Observatory Hill between the New Brighton
and PerTysville roads. is oblong in shape wild
and would make beautiful park.
The woods were a favorite resort of Prof
Langley in summer, and he always sought their
seclusion when he had any intricate problem to
work out or wished to commune with nature,
The company would gain their returns by
building up that section, and. with rapid transit
near, might succeed well. A gentleman spoken
to yesterday said there was sure to be a park
there, and, if the company did not build it an
effort might be made to have the city do so.

VALUE OF CORN FODDER TO TuR
DAIRYMAN.-Of course no more can
be in the silo than IS put In, and
analyses of ensilage SO Tar show that
there is little, If any, gam in the diges-
tive value of food from siloiDg. The
feeding experiments and analyses made
at the New Jersey, Wisconsin, and
other agricultural experiment stations
show that siloing, very slightly, if at
all, increases the palatability or actual
value of corn fodder as food. If equal
quantities of corn fodder are taken
and one well cured and the other sliced,
they are equally well eaten by cattle
and the products are OF substantially the
same value. Hence the popularity of
the silo and OF siloing largely rests on
the more economical preservation of
the fodder; and the degree OF that
popularity shows plainly that our
methods OF dry curing corn fodder
were so wasteful that We realized only
a fraction of Its value. Prof. Henry
has found by actual trials that a good
Wisconsin yield of fodder from one
acre (l2. .250 poundsl with 1850 pounds
Jf bran and :, 2,250 pounds of corn meal,
will make 500 pounds of butter, with
cows capable of making 80 pounds of
5utter per year. Tine prices of meal,
bran and butter Will vary with the
locality, but in few cases will they be
such that computation on the basis of
the above statements will not show
that the fodder has surprising value
II the silo has shown US the real value
OF corn fodder. the study and money
put in silos and siloing have been well
spent, and the information gained
worth its cost.

Tie fallacy of ''plaln livlng'' 8
Shown by good authority, which proves
that the stomach never performs its
duty so efiectually as when called to
act upon a variety of food, provided OF
course that the food is well cooked.
The popular opinion now is that
dinner consisting of three or four
varieties of solid food is more easily
dIgested than the meal which is con-
fined TO one sort only. The old-fash-
ioned notion of a single joint and a
simple made pudding is pronounce to
be fruitful source of indigestion. On
this subject DR.. George II. Taylor gays
in The Sanitary Era: "Ready-digested
AMI easily digested foods are the abomi-
nation of dietetIcs; they prevent normal
incitation OF the digestive organs.
necessary for normal secretions, they
encourage a false notion that nutrition
can be assured without reference 10
expenditure or TO providing any use
for nutritive material, and thus are
liable to cause unnatural, irregular,
unmanageable increase of the unstable
ingredients of the organism, which
react injuriously upon the digestive
secretions. especially those of the liver.
The prevalent recourse to these pre-
sumably enforced methods of nutrition
are, In short, violent and abnormal

The TOMATO EGG-PLANT.-This
plant has the general appearance or a
common eggplant, while It's fruit,
when ripe, resembles a medium sized ,
ribbed tomato. Its skin is very glossy
and bright red, much like that of a
Cayenne pepper The history of the
plant, so far as we could learn, is that
the year before last a single specimen
OF it came up among a large number
of Black Pekin egg-plants, growing in
Southern New Jersey. The specimen
from which our illustration represent
ing the fruits and leaves oDe-third

seeds of this original plant. The flesh
of the fruit is very solid and dry, ap-
parently unit for use, but as curiosity
and ornament the plant Is worthy of a
trial by those In search OF unusual
novelties. The cultivation Of the plant
is the same as that of tue common egg
plant.
