Many horsemen find ensilageexcellent

fall colts thrifty ON it during the long
cold winters. Col. Curtis, the best au-
thority on hogs in the country, says en-
silage is also valuable for swine.
Cows give good returns for food that
they relish, hence the success from ensil-
age in the dairy. The silo enables the
farmer to make butter during a season
of drought or when prices are high.
With ensilage, winter dairying is becom-
ing the rule in the east. With yield of
fifteen to twenty tons of ensilage corn
per acre, an equivalent of five or six tons
of good hay, we can keep much more
stock and keep it better than less stock
on a larger acreage.

ENGLAND'S NEW HEIR.
An Infant That May Yet Succeed to
the British Throne.
THE DUCHESS OF FIFE'S BABY
Is the First Heir Of Purely English Blood
in Centuries,
WHICH is ESPECIALLY GRATIFYING
tBY pUNLAr's CABLE COMPANY J

COnPAN1.l
LONDON, May 1s.-The birth of the daugh-
ter of Duke and Duchess of Fife has excited
the very greatest national interest Some
degree of importance attached to the occa-
sion is shown by the fact that no less i'm
portant member of the Cabinet than the
Rt Hon. Mr.. Matthews, the Home Secretary,
was present in his official capacity in order
to be able to certify to the birth of the
child.
A point on which general comment has
been made since yesterday morning is that,
as the Princes of Wales two sons the Duke
of Clarence and Prince George of Wales, are
still unmarried, this infant is, after them
and the Duchess of Fife, the nearest heir to
the British crown. The Duke of Clarence's
health, it is well known, is poor, and Prince
George, being a sailor, may at any time meet
with one of those accidents for which the
navy is so celebrated, and therefore the baby
which was born yesterday may yet be Queen
of England. The Times, in commenting this
morning on the subject, says:
"When We remember the train of circum-
stances which lead to the succession as heir
presumptive of the Princess Charlotte and
10 the actual succession of her present
Majesty, it is manifest that no great de-
parture from the ordinary course Of things
Is involved in the supposition that the
daughter of the Duke of Fife may one day
reign over England. What the English
who has English blood in its veins and not
German. The baby is the only pure English
in the royal family, and this baby will hold
q remarkable position, which has not been
English sovereign for hundred of years.
Her rank, unless altered by the Queen, will
be simply the daughter of a duke and as
such her title will be lady and net princess"

gard to the Importance of the birth of this

large famil he felt compelled to work, in
consequence of which he passed night after

such work as unloading carloads of wood,

ne began dates his improvement, and yester-
day, in an interview with an Eagle repre-
sentative, Mr.. Van Houten stated that his
ankle was nearly well; that he suffered no
more pain, a nd that they had done wonders
for him. Mr.. Van Houten told the above
story to the Eagle man with sincere air
that was convincing, and its truth cannot be
doubted. He is naturally very grateful and
urges all sufferers to consult with them. Mr.

CBT DUNLAP'S CABLE COMPANY.
BERLIN, May ls-A free trade organ states
that the Prussian frontier guards fired into
a crowd of women and children near
Neurode, 40 miles from Breslau, Silesia, who
having bought flour in Bohemia, where it is
cheaper, were on their way home. 1t seems
that Prussian law allows a certain amount
OF foreign flour to he imported free: but the
guards suspected that more than the legal
amount was being brought over the border,
on account of its being wanted for use
during the Whitsuntide holidays
This suspicion was strengthened by the
action of the women, who refused to allow
the packages to be examined. The guards
then, without making any further effort to
settle the matter bloodlessly, fired into the
crowd of returning purchasers, killing one
girl and seriously wOunding two boys.

of san Antonio, near Rieti, quantity of

careful examination confirmed the impor-

thirteenth and fourteenth centuries,
Some Of them are of great photographic

and treat mostly OF theological and patriotic

throw great deal of light on many subjects
