Chas. King of Albany related his
experience with COWS and with
bought grain feeding. Last year he
paid out for grain to feed to his
cows and his team 1882; he sold
from Is cows-mostly Jerseys-1035
dollars worth of butter, and realized
considerable from his hogs and
calves. He cards his COWS and gives
them good treatment. They are in
milk ten months.
NJ. L. Gilman, one of the meal
feeders of that thrifty section of the
county where great quantities of
meal are fed, sold from IA COWS $500
worth of butter; his meal feed cost
5000.
Mr.. Hinckley gave his experience
in sheep raising, which was interest
ing and showed this branch of his
farming profitable.
FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
Mr.. Vail of the Board discussed
the silo and ensilage. He had not
at first been inclined to use the silo,
but was rather forced to use one. He
built by using bent in his barn and
made at a comparatively small ex-
pense a silo which has proved sue
cessful in the storage of all sorts of
silage crops. First broke up 4 acres
of pasture, nsed 800 pounds of phos-
phate on an acre and obtained
large crop. Plants the Sanford
sweet, sows in drills, not thick. In
ordinary years much of the corn ears,
and frequently it nearly all ripens,
cuts before the frost, if he gets to it
thinks frost does not harm it Sc
riously-draws it to his barn and
cuts it by machine 34 inch to cut,
fills into his bin. keeping the middle
considerably higher than the sides,
treads it down firmly and, if corn,
cares little whether it is weighted or
not. Also puts early cut oats, rye,
rowen, almost anything into the silo.
The latter crops need heavy weight
ing. Cattle, sheep, horses, store
hogs-all kinds of stock thrive on
the silage. Unless his corn is we'll
cared he uses some bran or grain
with this fodder and little hay.
Cattle relish it better than any sort
of feed. Never has known of any
bad effect from its use. The cost of
harvesting the corn is about one dol
lar a ton. Three tons of this fod-
der is as good as ton of hay. Mr..
Vail thinks almost every farmer
would find the silo profitable.
The evening meeting was large and
the discussion on horses by Mr..
Winslow very interesting. We
shall not even be able to give the
gist of the talk. The chairman re-
marked that among all the horses
mentioned, he heard nothing in re-
gard to the ''McCartha horse" C.. S.
Parker was called on and gave the
song, much to the enjoyment of the
audience.
Mr.. Davis of the Board made a
few remarks thanking the people for
their attendance and hospitality.
The Board also received vote of
thanks for their excellent addresses
and for holding the meeting in
Glover.
On the whole it was very success
full Board meeting.

Meeting of the Board of Agricul-
ture at Glover.

The Board of Agriculture were all
present in due season. w. w. Cook,
Secretary, called the meeting to or
der and A. p. Bean was chosen
chairman, and upon taking the chair
made few remarks of welcome to
the Board and neighboring farmers.
Mr.. Rollin G.. Smith of Pittsford,
gave us a very interesting talk upon
the subject of Winter and Summer
Darying, giving some statistics of
the amount of the product and the
income from it, also the amount of
capital invested in COWS in the state !;
the amount of butter made per COW,
varying from 100 pounds in past
years, to over 800 pounds in some
dairies at the present day. AS a
general rule those that make the
most per cow make the best article.
Mr.. III. w. Vail of Pomfret, follow
ed with a few remarks on the same
subject.

AFTERNOON.

AFTERNOON.
H. w. Cooke spoke about butter
making, saying there are four things
absolutely essential in successful
dairying: first, good cows; second,
good feed third, perfect cleanliness !;
fourth, a good dairyman. A good
cow makes butter at a profit; still
good butter, is one that makes a
high favored butter. The quality of
the butter is in the four essential
things, not in the system of making.
There is a certain flavor in butter
made from ripened cream that is not
in butter made from sweet cream.
Fresh butter made from sweet cream
without salt is used in New York
and recommended by some. Think
about one-half hour is long enough
to churn, but with our multitude of
ways of raising cream, no definite
rule of temperature can be laid down
but would not have a temperature so
as to churn in less than half an hour.
Mixing cream of different skimmings
just before churning will not work
well should be mixed twenty-four
hours before churnIng or there will
be loss. The evening meeting was
well attended and the remarks of
Mr.. Davis Of the Board on''Vermont
and the Farmers" were interesting,
timely and good in every sense. We
regret that we are unable to report
this meeting more fully.
FRIDAY FORENOON.
Mr.. Chaplin of the Board, who was
assigned to the topic of "Farmers
and Farms,' began in a manner pc
culiar to himself, and put the audi
ence in the best of humor and relish
for his address. In the history of
Vermont, farmers figure very con-
spiciously in the most important
events of every period. Those who
pushed up from the older New Eng
land into the Vermont wilderness
were seeking lands and sites on
which to clear up farms and build
homes. They came bringing along
with them the school and the church !;
they reared good, strong, noble boys
aud girls. Those who came were
picked men, whose courage, enter
prise, Drawn and brain were such as
could alone succeed under the circum-
stances. They had not only the eli
mate, the wilderness and the savages
to contend with, but soon became of
necessity embroiled in the contro-
versy over the right of the two neigh
boring states, New Hampshire and
New York, to claim the territory of
/ Vermont. Those who were brought
to the front in those early times
were farmers. Allen, Warner, Baker
aud others were mentioned as being
worthy farmers. Men of this day
look with pride on our ancestry of no.
BILE farmers. The question was
asked whether the men of this day
are worthy sons of tile honored set

around its cases, the editorial pens are
covered thick with rust and the only thing
now "stuck" in the print shop is the unwary
house fly that foolishly alights on the ink
slab. The cage is empty-the bird has flown.
The Eagle Of reform" that swooped down
upon the town with a piercing shrek,
seeking to strike down with its sharp beak
all who tread in errors way, is again on
the wing. But how different the spectacle
OF the flight, instead of the bold, fierce bird,
that with rutied crest and eyes ablaze,
swept down-from the prairies of Illinois and
filled with amaze nay every terror those
who beheld lt-now as it flutters and wab-
bles out of town with tall feathers plucked
and wing feathers gone, its rear elevation
convinces the beholder that after all it was
only an ordinary kind of fowl of the scaven-
ger species. Putting aside fgurative eX
pressions, ID. Hogue Elllff, editor of the
self styled weekly Terror" has departed
hence. Likeunto the gentle Arab, he packs
his traps, throws himself out of the window
and "moves on" to parts unknown. Having

There were some speeches delivered at
Cape Girardeau last week that could as well
have been dispensed with by the immigra-
ton convention. b. B. Cahoon's address
was too long, and as q prominent Cape man
expressed it, "too windy" We have had
sufficient wind in this section for 10 these
many years. Some local orators attend such
gatherings sometimes for the sole purpose
of uncorking themselves. Had Cahoon
talked fifteen minutes longer Morpheus
would have had full sway in that mighty
audience. Philips also "come too many
times" and stayed too long, although he had
enough sense not to worry his auditors as
did Cahoon. These fellows who don't
know when to stop should be informed and
that's what the Citizen is doing. We trust
that we may not be called upon to admins

more than a bare statement of facts.
In order to make it impossible for re-
porters to get details all executions
are to take place between midnight
and daylight inside Of high and
tight enclosure, and the exact hour is
not made known. The first execution
under this law took place last week
and Notwithstanding the precautions
used for suppressing the news, the

holes through the wall of the enclosure
