third block with single pulley
(sometimes called a 'snatch bloclx'')
may be attached independently to the
anchor stump or to some other low
down anchorage, and the rope c passed
under the pulley before attaching the
team. That will bring the draft low
down and give the team much better
chance to plant their feet firmly on the
ground.
By using long cable in place of a
chain to connect the tree and block B,
an anchorage may be made at greater
distance from the tree, as circumstances
may indicate.
You also send me letter which
asks "What kind of cable?"-"How
many trees may be pulled by two men
and team in an hour?"--and "What do
the pulley blocks cost?"
One and half inch rope is what 1
use that call cable. The rapidity
with which man can take bitches
and tie he knots IN the rope will large
ly determine the numbe of trees which
may be uprooted in an hour. 1t is
difficult to describe here the various
quick knots an d bitches which an ex-
pert may make in rope, but most
neighborho DDS have some ''old tar or
other competent man who will gladly
teach these bitches.
BY reference to "a journal kept at the
time, find that w averaged ten trees
an h our, but many of them were small
and came out readily by a pull of the
team without using pulleys. 1t was
done more quickly than it could have
been if we had waited to attach the
| blocks. / think ten trees an hour a
good average. Mr.. Robinson can get
his land and d-grubbed for nine dollars
an acre. That seems low and may be
cheaper than using pulleys, but with
me pulleys save half the expense.
In regard to cost of outfit any hard
ware dealer can tell you more accu-
rately than I can. You will need 10
or l2-inch block with two pulleys, the
same sized block with one pulley, and
possibly smaller 'snatch block"
use $50 feet of inch rope for pulleys
and about IS feet of 1T-inch rope for
cable. l find inch rope, when new,
quite strong enough and it is much
more easily handled than a larger rope.
There are so many times and places
On farm when rope and pulleys save
time, that 1 think it good investment
to own them, even if we have no tim
ber to grub. In getting heavy logs and
rocks out of the way, and in moving
small or even large buildings, the
tackle" has been so convenient that
would nearly as soon get along without
wagon as without the "taclle" OF
rope and pulleys. Curtis S. CLARK, in

You send me letter from which It
appears that the writer cannot under
stand why use "ftoo pulley blocks in

know how to use one alone to advan-

companying sketch will show the man

By means of chain we attach the
block B, containing two pulleys, to the
tree as high as practicable. The block
A, containing one pulley, is anchored
to stump or tree closo 30 the ground.
Anchorage should be rather further
from the tree than is shown in the
sketch. One end of the rope is made
fast to the iron loop of the single pull
ley block. The other end of the rope
is first passed over one of the double
pulleys, then over the single pulley,
then over the other double pulley, and
lastly the end of the rope G is made
fast to the doubletree to which the

The vaiuo of Corn Fodder for wlntering
Horses and Cattle.

The Vniuo of Corn Fodder for Wlntering
r. Horses and Cattle.
After our experiment stations have
proved the great value of corn fodder
for wintering horses and cattle, how
strange it is that on hundreds of farms
throughout the south and west not
shock of this fodder is ever saved, even
when the owners have frequently to
buy hay. Many who cut up their corn
do not get it's full value because they
manage it so wastefully. Too often II is
left out in the weather until the water
has soalsed most of its value out of it
The complaint is common that corn
fodder is so hard to cure This is
usually the verdict of the inexperienced
and easy discouraged Treated right il
is easily to take care of it. First, it
must be cut and shocked as soon as the
graiu is glazed-usually long before
old-style 1atmers think it time. Such
grain vii be dry and ready Sor the
crib two weeks earlier than IL left in
the hill. The stover should be bound in
small bundles easy to handle. And
don't have them tied too near the top
so the butts will spread and be clumsy.
When there is not room under cover
for all, don't leave them in the field to
freeze down in shocks or stick in the
mud, but make nice dry stacks SO near
the barn that in single day whole
one once opened can be pitched in
safe from weather, and don't store a
large quantity in barn or stack without
some chance for ventilation from the
center out Stalks are sure to heat
and mold if not given air. Stand up
half II dozen rails together in stack
for ventilator. In large bay make
two or three of these chinneys, and
don't think because a neighbours stalks
kept so well last year. that yours will
keep equally well this, without Most
of us have yet to learn that stalks and
clover need different treatment from
hay. Cut near the ground, run through
a fodder cutter and made into half-inch
bits and fed with grain, little or no
hay will be needed, so this bill may be
reckoned out; or if hay is owned it may
be sold to advantage. Farm and Home.

learned to like the way, especially as
the root part is as good to eat as any
other part of the plant. The Kalama-
zoo people cut the root off square, and
usually pretty close to the heart, as
shown at the left of illustration. This,
to us, looks like mutilation; and we
think the growers make mistake. 1t
may take a little longer to trim the
roots off with four cuts than with a
single stroke of the knife, but it will
pay in the end, by making more sales
and increasing the demand for their
products Gardening.

a NOCTURNAL VISION.

Nuund a fair mansion and Its ample lawn
All nature was at rest; and dwelling there
Amid the darkest hour before the dawn,
Klnv by sleep beguiled Of worldly care.
Along the corridor, where shone no light,
In raiment clad OF more than earthly sheen
There passed form angelic, wondrous
bright,
whose garments, without rustic, lit the
scene.
Human she seemed, but yet in glory moved,
As those who mortal coil have cast away;
Matrun she looked as one who erst had loved,
Aud now revisits scenes OF lifes young day.
No bars the disemboded spirits stay,
She stood within the wellknown chamber
there.
Where, held in infant slumbers, peaceful lay
Two babes of tender years and faces fair.
And there, by all but me unseen unknown,
She blessed their couch in accents sweet
and low,
Praying as those who stand around the
throne
Have learned to pray for those they loved
below.
And there the human mother tarried long,
DOting, as mothers do, on infant charms,
And almost breaking to triumphant song,
And almost folding round them her white
arms.
To other doors she came, and paused at each,
Seeming TO wish to wake the slumberers
there;
heard the tender tones of her soft speech,
Breathing in many wish and fervent
prayer,
Which floated to me through the silent hall
AS some immortal strain from out the sky
Might seem with heavenly harmony to call
Poor wandering souls to know the music
heard on high.
~Grieve not for me, dear ones" heard her
say
"FF when the Father bids you each tc
come
shall be there in that unending day,
To meet and greet you in another home"
The morn began. Some vulgar, earthly
sound
Broke rudely on this vision OF my brain,
As one who sudden falls from height Il
ground,
Iwoke to feel this is world of pain.
Eet twas thought would not now repress
That TO the heart there comes from out the
gloom
Clearer than aught philosophy can guess,
A cheering voice. spoke from beyond thu

Judge Van Fleet Admits Him to Bail
Pending an Appeal.
Daniel Gardner, who was recently con
victed of having criminally assaulted little
Lizzie Cox, is fighting hard against going
to Folsom and serving out his five-year
sentence.
Gardner appeared before Superior
Judge Van Fleet yesterday, accompanied
by his counsel, S. S. Holl, to ask to be
admitted to bail pending Judgment on his
appeal TO the Supreme Court.
Attorney Hon stated 10 the court that
Gardner was entitled to bail pending
final action in the case. The case would
probably not be heard until the next ses-
sion of the Supreme Court i'll Sacramento
and il would not be just to keep Gardner
at the penitentiary all that time, mas
much as there was a possibility of the
verdict in the lower court being nullified
interests in this city which needed his
attention, and there would be little dan
ger of his running away.
District Attorney Ryan argued against
the motion. The court, he said, was not
bound to admit a prisoner to bail during
the time that an appeal is pending. 1t is
purely discretionary matter with the
court. Gardner had been convicted of q
grave offense, and there would be danger
of his jumping" his bail.
There was some further argument on
both sides, and then Judge Van Fleet
stated that he believed he would be iusti-
fed in liberating Gardner on bail until
the appeal was settled.
Attorney Holl suggested S., 900 as being
about right, but Judge Van Fleet would
accept nothing less than $4,000

WANTS A NEW TRIAL.

ffeulan1 VIII NOT be Given His Sem
tence just Yet.
Eduardo Frediani, the old lime peddler
who was recently found guilty of man
slaughter for having killed Giuseppe
Scatini. appeared before Judge Van
Fleet yesterday, having been called 70,
sentence.
He was not sentenced, though, as his
attorney, Grove l.. Johnson, interposed a
motion for a new trial, preceded by a
motion that no Judgment be rendered
against the defendant on the verdict OF
guilty, on the ground that the'court has
no jurisdiction Of the ofienSe charged in
the information, and that the facts stated
in the intorpation do not constitute a
public otfense.
The motion for new trial was made
on the grounds that the jury received evil
dence out of court other@than that result
ing from view of the premises; that the
court misdirected the jury in matters OF
law; that the court erred in the decision
of questions of law arising during the
course of the trial; that the verdict is con-
trary to law and the evidence; that new
evidence has been discovered material to
the defendant, and which he could not
with reasonable diligence have discov-
cred and produced at the trial.
Mr.. Johnson asked for time in which
to properly present and argue these mo-
tions, and the matter was continued to
next Friday.
