When an acre Of corn of the white
Virginia sorts, thinly planted, SO as to
strongly develop the formation Of grain,
will, with fair ration Of bran, afford
the keep for one year Of two cows in full
flow of milk, the problem of cheap feed
seems solved. From my own expert
ence. ensilage corn can he raised ready
for the silo at not over 50 per acre, and
put into the silo % big loads per acre,
for IS more, making the ''roughage"
ample for two cows one year cost less
than one dollar per month. This win
ter find that 90 pounds of ensilage per
day, and six pounds OF bran, is ample
feed for a milch cow, and reduced to
bushels, the ensilage in the pits costs
about three-quarters OF . cent per
bushel of 40 pounds, loose. So as to
cheapness, the actual feed cost Of days
ration falls below eight cents per COW,
which is pointer" at least toward .
cheap but satisfactory ration for milk

The Growth Of Trees.

In the parish Of Winfarthing are two
magnificent oak trees, one Of which is
known as the ''Winfarthing Oak;" the
other is little inferior in magnitude, but
appears to have been generally passed
over in favor of the more celebrated
tree first mentioned. These trees were
inspected by Robert Marsham, +. r. s.,
the friend and correspondent of Gilbert
White, and great agriculturist, in the
year l744; and he has left in his dairy
accurate measurements of both. The
larger tree measured at that time 50
feet inches in circumference and the
smaller just 80 feet. In the year 1874,
when these trees were measured accord
ing to Marsham's method, the larger
tree was just 10 feet in circumference,
and the smaller 30 feet; 1t will thus be
seen that one tree had increased II inches
in $50 years, whereas the other had 70.

Of beaten gold, the sails were OF the scar

the water to the measure of music. And
there in the center Of the vessel, beneath
an awning aOlaze with gold embroidery, lay
Cleopatra, a;tired as the Roman Venus
land surely Venus WAS not more fairo. in
thin robe of whitest silk, bound in beneath
her breast with golden girdlc delcately
craven DER with scenes Of love. All about
her were little rosy boys, chosen for
their beauty, aud clad in naught save
downy wings strapped upon their shoulders,
and on their backs Cupid's bow and culver
who famed her with fans of plumes. And
upon the vessels decks. handling the cord
age that was OF silken ,veD. and softly sing
ing TO the sound Of harps and the beat OF
oars, stood no rough sailors, but women
lovely TO behold, some clad as Graces and
some AS Nereids that is, arcc clad at all
save in their scented hal And behind
the couch, with drawn sword, stood Bren
nus, in splendid armor and winged
helm Of gold; and by him others
among thcm-n robes richly worked, and
knew that was indeed a slave! On tho
high poop also burned golden censcrs FILED
with the costliest incense, whereof the fra
grant steam hung in little clouds about oul
wake.
Thus, as in dream OF luxury, followed
by many ships, we glided on toward the
wooded slopes OF Taurus, at whose foot Law
that ancient city Tarshish. And az we came
the people gathered on the banks and ran
before US shouting: sVenus is risen from
the sea! Venus hath come to visit BAG

With them came Dellius, the false

name Of Antony gave the Queen of Beau
ty'' greeting, bidding her to feast tha,
Antony had made ready. But she made hiRt
answer, and said: "Forsooth, tits Anton,

Bid the noble Antony to our poor table thi,

An interesting home made method Of nat

glass, which hourly will increase, until in Q
very short time the glass will present q
beautiful appearance, being enlarged TO

like some peculiar fun gus or animal growth.
A dish should be placed beneath the glass,
~ the crystals will run over.
The color Of the crystals may be changed
by placing In the salt and water some COM
mon red ink or spoonful Of bluing; this
will be absorbed and the white surface COW
cred with exquisite tints.
No more simple method Of producing in
expensive or beautiful ornaments can be
imagined, and by using different shapes Of
vases and shades an endless variety Of
beautiful forms can be produced. The glass
should be placed where there 10 plenty Of

great care you may succeed Ia performing
the experiment with . full egg In place Of
an empty shell, taking the precaution, how

you may escape an omelet in case Of failure.
Another curious experiment 10 that Of
putting an egg into bottle without break

be fresh, for several days in strong VIM

WOMEN'S RIGHTS.
The Decision Of the Court Of Appeals
Against Lady Sandhurst.

Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR.
LONDON, May 1.-THE unanimous decision
Of the court Of appeals yesterday in Lady Sand
hurst's case has finally settled the legal aues-
ton against the right of women to sit in the
county councils. The judge decided that the
act expressly enfranchising women as electors
has the effect in the absence of any further
statement Of disqualifying them as candidates.
This is another instance of legal dictum that
words in acts of parliament implying man in
clude women when disability or punishment is
concerned, but excludes women when a privi-
lege is conferred. He" means .'she" when
the question is one of going to government, but
che" only means ''he" when it is question of
going to the ballot-box. / have Just inter-
viewed Lady Sandhurst. She says the struggle
will now move from the courts to parliament.
The county council has passed resolution by
two to one in favor of women sitting, and bill
has been introduced in that sense. There is
much curiosity to see If Salisbury will make
good his recent promises by supporting it.
Meanwhile, Lady Sandhurst points out the
curious anomaly that although she is elected
from the council because the male candidate
next her claimed the seat Miss Golden sits on
because there is no adverse claim to it. Simi-
larly Miss Cons sits alderman. Lady Sand
hurst tells me committee is being formed to
protect Misses Golden and Cons against any
possible consequence of retaining their seats.
