Building SiIos.

A farm building ten feet wide,
fourteen feet long and twenty-five
feet high, is small one. But a
building of this size, according to
the estimate given in the article on
silos in this issue, will hold enough
ensilage to feed ten cows six months.
GLOW can the same storage capacity
be secured so cheaply as in this
small silo?" 1t would require q
building more than three times as
large to contain the quantity of hay
equivalent IN feeding value to the
ensilage this small silo will hold.
Three acres of good land will raise
corn enough to fill this silo. As it
would take ten or twelve acres to
raise its equivalent feeding value in
hay, we have before us an illustra-
ton of the possibilities of intensive
farming with silos and silage.

Wild Horses.

Up in northwestern Wyoming
and northwestern Nebraska many
bands of wild horses still roam as
fearless and as fleet as in the days
when the country was an unexplor-
ed wilderness. All through the
West ranchmen and cowboys have
regularly organized parties to 60 out
and kill off the wild stations. The
loss of mares sustained by horse
breeders has at last become so large
that some measures are likely to be
adopted to reclaim mares stolen
away by the wildstallions. In Col
orado, Wyoming, southern Idaho
and Nebraska, there must be now
roaming al large fully 5000 wild
horses. Each stallion selects twelve
consorts. If band is large enough
they are divided into small lots of
twelve mares and one stud. Occa-
sionally male is found wandering
by himself, but he is not bachelor
from choice, having been driven
away by the stronger males.-Far-

The building site is, of course, the
first thing to be considered. Ones
first resolutions regarding it, should
be to avoid all anxiety to jump into
the roae. A house crowding upon
the highway, loses all dignity and
home-like repose, and gains nothing
but dust. Such choice of location
may possibly be an hereditary trait,
coming down from that long ago
time, when houses grew up along
the family marked trails of emigra-
ton, and closely clung there, as if
in mortal fear of savages and wild
animals lurking in the background.
But in these peaceful days, it is bet
ter to sit back in a leisurely and
composed way, as if not afraid of
ones fields and woodlands, but at
home and happy with them. Let
no site be chosen because of its
proximity to the road, or because it
is "handy to water" Select the

Farm Homes.

Some one has intimated that he
who has eyes for seeing, is very
wealthy mamie owns the land
scape! Whoever is blessed with
eyes, then, owes it to God and his
fellowman, that he should contrib
ute his mite of beauty and cheerful
ness to the world around him.
In no way can he do this with
more telling effect, than in creating
lovely home, in building COM
Portable and attractive house, and
making the most and best of our
surroundings.
No matter how small his posses
sions may be, or how plain and cheap
his materials, it is always possible
for every farmer to make the land
scape little more pleasing, from
the fact of his having hand in it.
If this seems q small achievement
and one without profit, let the reads
er call to mind those farm houses,
seen too often, whose rickety fences,
unkempt door yards and scattered
tools, are an ugly blot upon Natures
fair page, and | am sure he will feel
the great moral as well as financial
meaning that lies in even the hum
blest expressions of beauty, thrift,
and order-a meaning that an
nounces pretty clearly in farming
regions, the difference between the
man and the sluggard-between the
genuine and worthy ''lord of the
soil'' and the black-souled pauper,
who makes no honorable return to
the acres that feed him.
It is great thing to build the
house that is to be ones home.
There are few pleasures so unalloy-

The Rich and Their Taxes

From the New York World.
The boast has been made that
the 1856 citizens who tended a con-
ISOLATION dinner to Mayor Hewett
represented $500, ,0o0,o00 and that
"every one of..them is taxpayer"
It would add to the interest and
value of the demonstration made
by these modern Diveses to show
for how much they are taxed. The
entire assessment of personal pro-
perty in New York City is but a lit
tie over $3.50, ,0Oo, 900 and the total
assessment a little more than ST.
500, 900. If the two carloads of
rich men who sought to soften the
fall OF Uncle Abram are worth
$500, ,o0, 900 they are tax-dodgers to
the extent of at least four-fifths of
this amount, for, rich as they are,
they are but a"drop in the bucket"
which represents the wealth of
New York.
And this leads us TO renew the
suggestion often made by the
World, that a graded income tax
imposed by the state on all incomes
over $40, 1000 would be the justest
tax that can be laid, and would re-
lieve the house-owners and the
house-renters of good portion of
the burden of direct and indirect
taxation which now expresses

Clark's State Fair Bill

FROM the Rural World.
Mr.. c. f. Clark, representative
from Audrain county, intends to
introduce bill in the next Legis-
lature having for it's object the
holding of a State fair by the State
at some central place, and of pro-
viding for the erection of perma-
nent buildings, grounds, etc., for
the encouragement of agriculture
and kindred industries, much as
has been advocated so long and so
earnestly by the Rural World.
When that bill is introduced, we
hope the Legislature will take to it
very kindly and deal with it as its
importance demands. The time
was, many years ago, when local
and county fairs were matters of
importance, but now that we have
access to cheap railroad transpor-
tation and can reach a central Ioca-
tion in quick time and at small ex-
pense, it is desirable to have an
aggregation of the finest stock of
all kinds known to the State,
brought together and exhibited for
the farmers benefit.
Then, too, we could exhibit our
best fruits and seeds, and indeed
everything else that we excel in as
compared with our neighbors, and
by the simple showing tell them
the story of our success, and by
contrast, their own failure, and
thus send them to their homes with
full resolve to try the same them
selves. We have shown elsewhere
on this page, that farming pays
only when the best efforts and the
greatest intelligence are called into
requisition. Intelligence is ac.
quired, not made, and if we would
have an intelligent people we must
do our level best to educate them
into the best methods, that when
they do put forth an effort to dc
better than ever before, it may
stand some chance of being a sue
| cessful one. We most earnestly
hope to see Mr.. Clark's effort emf
nently successful.

JUST HAVE PATIENCE,
The Chicago, Hannibal and Spring.
tisIds May Yet be Built.

Many persons in Mexico have
given up all hope of ever securing
the proposed Chicago, Hannibal
and Springfield railroad. Many
have also abandoned the idea that
the road will ever be built at all.
But from reports received from
gentlemen recently in Chicago, it
would appear that the company
exists and that it exists for the
purpose of building a railroad. A
prominent gentleman whose home
is in Perry, No., called at the of
fees of the company in the Rialto
Building, Chicago, the other day,
and had long talk with Mr.. Z. II.
Fudge, the secretary. Mr.. Fudge
assured the gentleman, in that
bland, pleasant way of his, that
the road will be built and that
work will commence within one
hundred and twenty days. He
didn't say, however, that the road
would come to Mexico. Neither
did he say it would come to Gen.
tralia. He only said the plan of the
company to build road from Chi
cago to Springfield, No., would be
carried out.
ANOTHER RAILROAD PROJECT.
The rumor that Mexico is to
get the new road from St. Louis to
Kansas City is going the rounds,
and, it appears, the story is not
without some foundation. A gen.
tleman who ought to know stated
TO reporter last night that he had
it on good authority that the new
company would not attempt to
cross the Galloway hills in order to
reach town like Fulton. On the
contrary, the road will leave the
proposed route at Danyille, coming
straight to Mexico. Here the line
will stop, and the road will pass
into the hands of the Alton. This
will give this road direct lines to
St. Louis, Chicago, Kansas City
and the State Capital.

Let the Girls Propose.

New YORK, January 2.-Labou-

there are over 100000 girls in
England who are not likely to get
married. In order to remedy this
he suggests that girls should be al
lowed to propose, in fact, that
counting and proposing should
henceforward be a business apper-
tanning equally to both sexes.
There are numbers of young men
who are shy. They have vague
and general idea of marrying, yet
cannot bring their courage up to
the sticking point. Were the road
to matrimony made easy to them
they would succumb. If, IN addi.
ton to this, parents would but have
the sense to leave to their daugh-
ters the same amount as to theil
sons, and would let their intentions
in this respect be known, they
would speedily reduce the numbc,
of girls at present condemned tc

A TIMELY hit In the way of polit-

cartoon representing the Republi-
can party as an old maid walking
arm in arm with the dudish Mr..
Quay, while an antiqued "masher''
bearing James G.. Blaipe's features
is left in the lurch. The picture
represents the situation very fairly.
The services of Mr.. Blaine in the

cant compared with those of Mr.

ceded on all sides to have beer
most effective. General Harrison
will undoubtedly see this cartoon
and perhaps, it may reflect senti
ment which has been passing
through his own mind.
