their width. This will prevent spread
ing of the foundation. Surface water
should be guarded against, and then
only a floor of pounded-dOwn clay
coming up few inches against the
inside walls will be needed and makes
as perfect floor as any. The all
above-ground silo is far preferable to
one sunk wholly or in part. The
corners should be made secure. The
studding should be two by eight
inches, set sixteen inches apart. Then
line up inside with common inch
boards, well-nailed to the studding.
Then paper up and down with tarred
paper, well-lapped. Then "face" with
another layer of inch boards, the three
being nailed to the studding. Then
paint the silo inside and out with gas
tar or asphalt, applied boiling hot.
If built outside the barn, the silo needs
a roof, and the structure looks better
if covered with some cheap siding.
But the spaces between the studding
should not be filled in with any mate
rial like sawdust, tanbark, or the like.
The simple air-space is preferable.
Such a silo rooted and all complete,
will cost 80 cents to $3.50 per ton stor-
age capacity, according to price Of
lumber and labor. [ am now building
one in my barn, for next season, that
will hold 100 tons and cost about $50.
The best material with which to fill
is corn-the natural crop in all locali-
ties 1t should be the best and most
vigorous kinds; thinly planted, never
sown broadcast AS a rule, eight
quarts per acre for large varieties, and
ten quarts for the smaller, put in drills
81 feet apart, and cared for by the
best rules for field corn, will give
best results. 1t should be al
lowed to stand until fully ma
tured-the ears just at the roasting
stage-before silo filling begins. En-
couraging the growth of ears is to pro-
mote development of desirable feeding
qualities. This was my plan last year
and the silage is more nearly perfect
than ever before. The corn is bes
prepared for the silo by running il
through machine cutting TO half-incf
lengths. Either cut half-inch or two
inches, for benefit of the cattle. Will
this very mature corn it is not so i'm
perative that slow filling be observed
or high heat be developed. The corr
fodder has become so charged will
starch, sugar, ETC., that it furnishe
very largely its own preserving ele
ments, and we now get the sweet
ripened 81 lage with the molasses havo
SO greedily eaten by the stock and fur
nishing desirable yields of well-bal
anced milk. The silo filled, let it re
main a few days to settle, develol
some heat, expel the air, and then pu
on cover of foot thick or so of loOs
straw, slight weight of old boards c
rails added to hold the straw down t
mat, and the work of preservation
ACCOMPLISHED. Cor. N. Y. Tribune,

Gorgeous Cars Designed to Transport the
Dead in Buenos Ayres.
The Brill Car Works, of Philadel-
phia, have recently finished three steel
cars designed to transport the dead in
Buenos Ayres. The cars are unique
in construction, and are the first of the
kind made in this country. They are
first, second and third class, the first
being designed to carry the body of a
wealthy individual, the last tho
corpse of a pauper. The first-class
car is very handsome. The body is a
rich black toned with purple, with
passion flowers painted on the sides.
The windows are of French plate glass.
The seats, folding up against the sides.
are upholstered in black plush, and
the window curtains are black cloth
trimmed with gold bullion.
In the forward end of the car is an
altar, with silver cross and candle
labra, while on either side the altar
are cathedral purple-stained glass
windows. The interior Of the car is
finished in white and gold. The metal
work is nickel-plated and handsome
in design. On the top nine large sable
plumes are placed. The other cars
are much simpler and palmer in
design, and the third-class car has
merely arrow of shelves for the cof-
fins. These cars are intended to run
on the street-car tracks in BuenOs
Ayres, and will be switched off on a
side track nearest the house of the
dead person. The body is carried on
a bier to the car, placed inside, the
mourners seat themselves around,
horses are attached and the car pro-
ceeds on its way to the cemetery.
This custom is adopted in the City OF
Mexico and in some cities of Central
America The only parallel among
northern nations is the dead train
which leaves the Gard du Nord in
Paris at five o'clock every morning,
carrying the bodies of paupers and I'M
recognized persons of the morgue. -
