cuTTINo CORN foppER.


| A Feed THAT Keeps Live stock In Good
Condition I'm tire Winter.
Good corn fodder Is one of the cheap.
est and best rough feeds ON the farm.
In making the necessary grain the fod.
der is grown so that the only item OF
expense is the cutting. shocking mp and
hauling out Yet when there is con-
siderable acreage this is quito task, so
much SO that in many cases n sufficient
quantity cannot be gathered at the
right stage to be of the best quality
without hiring extra help, To u con-
siderable extent the quality or value OF
feed is largely determined by the age
Mt which IL is cut and the manner OF
curing and storing away.
AS with much other farm work, ma
chincry will not only lessen the labor,
but afford much better opportunity
of getting the work done in good sea-
con. With n corn harvester, two men
and one horse will put from six 20
eight acres of corn in the shock, aud in
this way considerable quantity of
good feed can be secured in short
time and at n comparatively small
cost. Too much fodder is allowed to
get too ripe before cutting So far as
is possible IL will be best To begin cut
ting when the grain begins to harden
we'll
The size of the shocks should be de-
tcrmined largely 10y the management
to be given. If, as is often done, the
fodder is to stand in the field until IL is
hauled out and fed to the stock, il will
be best to put up in large shocks, while
if it is to be hauled in and stored under
shelter as soon as Il is sufficiently
cured, small shocks are much the best;
where fodder Is left standing out there
is always more or less damaged fodder
on the outside of the shocks. The rain,
snow, wind and sun bleach and evapo-
rate good portion of the nutriment in
the stalks SO that it is quite an item to
lessen the amount that is exposed to
these clements as much as possible,
and this is the advantage in putting up
in large shocks. Sixteen hills square
is not too large. But when it is TO be
hauled in under shelter as soon as pos
sible eight or ten hills square is large
enough
With good shelter cattle, sheep and
horses can be kept in good thrifty con-
dtion all winter with very little grain
and consequently at low cost If the
fodder is of good quality, or if the fod-
der is cut up fine and small quantity
of oil, meal and bran added this class
of stock can be kept thrifty during the
winter, and much feed that is allowed
to go TO waste can be used in this way
and thus much grain be saved to feed
to ia ttcning stock. st. Louis Rcpublic.

thing more on his hands than a case OF

The national executive committee
can hardly be subjected To the treat
ment of industrious rumors OF sick
ness. 1t is a machine that is not af-
hicted with Bright's disease of mental
malady. 1t Is very robust and rug
ged body of men, and the only trouble
with It's pulse is that it does not beat

The irony of it all is TO be found in
any contemplation of the party cham
pionship OF civil service reform and
such Ike virtuous schemes of Office
holding. Clarkson's fine work on pres
ident.al candidates is u study in the
line of political complexity and manip-
ulation. And Dudley ard Quay have

WHERE one has small plat and pre-
fcrs TO grow flowers, the soapsuds will
be found excellent if thrown around
the shrubs and bushes, but the surface
of the ground should not be allowed TO
bake or become hard.
WHEN plant produces seed it will
not afterward make an attempt To
flower. Pansies. which bear flowers

are not desirable.
MANY small fruit growers have been
dissatisfied with the dewberry on ac-
count of it's troublesome habit of
growth. A Pennsylvania cultivator has
trained his bushes upon light wire

the spade in regular rows, and then the
plants are lifted, with mass of earth
on them and placed in position in the
new bed. This work may be done any
time in the year, when the ground is
not frozen. We have had ripe berries
in this way six weeks after early spring
planting. Caution is necessary in
adopting this mode on adhesive or
heavy soils, not to press it with the
spade with such firmness as TO make it
compact, solid or adhesive.
These different methods have various
advantages, but il should be borne in
mind that the plants exhaust the soil
more or less, and require the annual
application of manure or fertilizers.
But the most perfect growth, and es-
pecially required for marketing, and
berries of the finest quality are TO be
obtained only by making new beds by
transplanting into rich, fresh, well-pre-
pared soil. If done as soon us the crop
has been gathered, say about the mid
die of summer, when the soil is suf-
ficiently moist, they will come forward
and make good growth through au-
tumn, and be nearly as forward as if
set out the previous spring. They may
be set month later, cutting off all the
old and large leaves, and preserving
the freshly-applied moisture in the soil
with fine mulch of manure. Country

grcssive Americans.
That the democratic party is essential
ly the party of the people has been
shown in various ways, by the enact.
ment of popular measures, by Judi
cious economy in administration, and
by furthering such new reforms as
may benefit the people. 1t has on two
notable occasions voiced prevailing
public sentiment which is likely to
take practical shape in time in con-
Stitutional amendment, the election of
United States senators directly by the
people. Gen. Palmer was nominated
for senator at the democratic state
convention of Illinois, and to the firm
stand taken by that convention is
largely due the election of such ster-
ling democrat. The Maryland demo-
cratic convention took like course in
unanimously nominating Senator Cor
man for the position he now so ably
fills. In both cases the sentiment of the
party in a very important'direction was
clearly and unequivocally expressed,
and no excuse left for Legislative deals
or auctions. BY this means the demo
cratic party avoids what might prove a
source of scandal and bitterness. The
Legislative auction which in many
states preccdes the election of a United
States senator is one of the most OBJ
noXious features of our political sys-
tenn. A state convention is much near
er the people than the average legis-
lature, and in the absence Of such de-
sirablc reform as the direct election of
senators, this democratic plan of a
nomination in convention is most adj
mirable one. Had it been tried in this
state some years ago, Mr.. EvartS or
Mr.. lIiscoclI would never have gone to
Washington Neither would Quay or
Cameron have succeeded in Pennsyl-
vania without hard struggle. The
method is deadly blow at
the infamous Legislative auction. and
should be demanded by the people in
every instance. Albany Argus.

Harrison has discovered that it is of no
further political use to ask of his Sec

question: art thou in health, my

For an ailing candidate the magnetic

The invalidation play on the part of
the administration is over. IL has
found it as impossible to repress the
Blaine impulse with the fiction of
phys cal and mental incapacity as it is
TO start Harrison boom ON the basis
of the presidential speeches made on
