All About the Sea Cow.

There has been on exhibition at
the old Allen House, ,at Thomasville,
Ga, says the Cincinnati Weekly
Times, malatee or sea COW. The
cow was ten feet long and weighed
1000 pounds. It's tail was twenty
inches across. Capt. w. III. Squires
who exhibited the COW said:
eve caught it in the inlet to the
ST. Lucie river which drains the
everglades of Florida. We used in
the capture a. seine 800 feet long,
made of inch rope. This is very
small COW. They grow from fifteen
TO twenty-four feet long, and weigh
from 10000 to $4,000 pounds. They
are powerful and often break the
strong rope of the seine like spool
cotton thread. We attempted to net
one fifteen feet long just before we
caught this one, and ittore our seine

the kerosene refineries. 1t, when
hot, penetrates the lumber better,
dries harder, and smells less, and
when one and one-half pounds of
pulverized resin is put into each
gallon of the hot tar and applied, it
makes a remarkably hard and glossy
finish. Such tar is very cheap, the
barrel costing as much as the tar.
The two cost about $3.50 for 55 gal

and, best of all, these are now SO

"There is but one live manatee
cow on exhibition In this country
besides this one. 1t is at Jackson
vile, Fla. There was one known
as old Columbus at the Geological
gardens at Cincinnati, but they kill
ed and mounted it. There was one
also in Philadelphia, but it died and
was mounted. We caught all Of
them. Old Columbus and the Phil
adelphia cow weighed each 1000
pounds. They make fearful strug-
gle when first caught, but soon sur
render like sheep and become very
docile. Though creatures of I'M
mense power, they are easily con-
troHed. They have grinders and eat
grass ike q COW. The eyes are
about the size of buckshot. The
head tapers to a point. There are
two iippers in front, no legs be-
hind. They nurse their young, ,hav-
ing six nipples on each side. The
sea COW is found at only one place
in North America, the Jupiter inlet
of the St. Lucie river, on the coast
of Florida. They are found at three
places only in the world the mouth
of the Amazon river, the mouth of
the ST. Lucie river and near Cape
Town on the Cape of Good Hope in
Africa. They seem to have their
habitation in the warm waters ofthe
Gulf stream and its branches. The
gulf stream begins at the Amazon
river and runs very near the mouth
of st. Lucie river, missing at that
point the shore only three and one
half miles. They leave the gulf
stream here in pairs and enter the
ST. Lucie river to feed upon the ten
der blades of the manatee grass.
They leave in winter and return by
pairs late in the spring. Another
curious thing about this queer ami
NAL is that it has one hair, about
half-inch long, that stands out per-
fectly straight from the body to ev-
cry square inch of surface. It lives
in salt water, but feeds in fresh wa
ter. When in captivity they are
kept in warm salt water and fed on
common grasses, spinach and cele-
ry."

From observation and persona
experience I think the preservation
of corn fodder in silos will be large
ly adopted by slsillful farmers. I
has several advantages, viz: The
comparatively small space required
for given amount; the great ease
with which the fodder may be cut
short while soft and green; avoiding
the labor and risk of curing in shocks
in the field; the readiness with
which the stalks may be harvested
in all weather except pouring rains;
the whole of the stalk being eaten
by the cattle and the advantages oi
green, succulent food through win
ter; increase in the flow of milk some
ten or twelve per cent. John T.
Thomas in Mirror and Farmer.
Green food in tight silo and in a
stomach of a cow, is closely anala-
gous in respect to conditions and
changes. The paunch ola rumi-
nant is silo in miniature, or, il
you please, a well-built silo is a
large rumen for the reception and
of food for digestion. In
each the food is partly eomminuted,
and in each exactly the same action
is begun, namely, Tactic fermenta-
ton. 1t may be carried a little fur
ther in the silo if it remain long, but
as far as they go the character of
the changes in both is alike.-L. B.

Opinions About Silage, from Practital
Men.
Two years experience goes far to
convince me that Q 1-2 tons of ensi-
lage, made from sweet corn with
roasting ears developed lis fully equal
in feeding value to one ton of hay,
and is greatly to be preferred for
milk cows, calves, brood sows and
shoats. Hiram Smith, Wisconsin.
We have fed our herd of one hun
dred Jerseys on it (morning and
night, with hay at noon) for five
years, and each year we find the re-
suits more encouraging. We find
that with one-half the quantity Of
grain we used to feed with hay, if
fed with ensilage, gives us two per
cent. more cream and better flow
of milk. John Mayer Mahwah, NJ
j. -
In regard to having the so-called
sweet ensilage, the main point APP
pears to be to have the corn well RI
pened ready for early cutting and
shocking. Corn ripened SO that the
grain begins to dent, will make sweet
ensilage, even if the silo is filled
in a single day.-Prof. Henry, of
Wisconsin Experiment station.
The great danger in feeding corn
ensilage in a practical way is in feed
ing too great proportion of this and
not enough dry, rough fodder and
grain. Corn ensilage should never
be fed alone. Our own experiments
and thosereported by other stations,
indicate that corn produces the most
digestible feed if cut in the glazing
stage or when the ends of the grains
are beginning to harden. Bulletin,
Minnesota University.
Prof. Alvord found in test made
at Houghton Farm that a greater per
cent. of the fats of the milk were
converted into butter when the COWS
were fed grain and corn ensilage than
when fed hay and grain. Prof. w.
A. WOll Wisconsin, found that II. 60
per cent. more of the fat was churn-
ed out from the mixed milk of two
cows when fed on ensilage than
when they received corn fodder
