Fodder Pulling.

c. NJ. s., Penfeld Ga.
have noticed within the past few
months several articles from very
eminent authorities depreciating the
practice of fodder pulling, as usually
followed in the Southern States.
Fodder from the corn fields has long
been the chief source of supply for
provender for the work stock on the
farm, and before one abandons it he
had best be sure he has made ample
provision for hay from some other
source. l agree with those who OPP
pose fodder pulling, that, as fire.
quently practiced, the resultant in
jury to the corn is more than the val
lie of the fodder; but this is, think,
usually unnecessary. Let the fodder
remain on the stalk until one third
or sometimes one-half of the whole
crop has dried up. BY this time the
corn will be so nearly matured as to
be but slightly, if at all affected by
the stripping of the blades. Now go
over and pull what good fodder is
left, what is left on the stalk as
worthless has not cost you any extra
work Horses and mules prefer corn
blades TO any hay l have ever tried
them on, and it is especially desirable
for noon feeding, when the time al
lowed to the mules in the barn is
limited, as they will eat more fod-
der in a given space of time than they
will of any other kind of hay. Fod-
der pulling comes at time of the
year when there is no press of farm
work, and ! have never had any
trouble in getting hands to earn their
wages at it. The difference between
the amount of provender saved by
the average hand in pulling fodder, or
in cutting crab-grass with a grass
blade, is good deal less than is
usually supposed, In fact, in cutting
hay, leave all places that [ cannot
get at with mower, unless l can
pick up some negro who will &C
around and cut them for one half.

TO THOSE WHO DIED IN THE FRANco-PRus.
SIAN WAR.
These died in war; they died cruel death
By maddened horses trampled to the ground;
While boldly fighting, with impatient soul,
Death found them, and with silence wrapped
them round.
They died in war and no familiar hand
Clasped theirs in death; restless, fighting
flood
OF soldiers overwhelmed them, and they sank
To death in heat and dust and wounds and
blood.
They died, and Of their gallantry and faith,
Their bravery and valour-what remains?
And Is the conquest worth the widows tears
And are the victories such certain gainsH
Nay, not the victories; but see, they raise
monument of love that shall be read
When we and all our age is past and gone,
And wives and mothers have rejoined their
dead.
The angel stands with mighty shield to guard
The dying warrior from the opponents arm;
And every feeble man shall feel his soul
Assured of safety, shielded from all harm.
And strength and valour shall go hand in
hand,
And angel purity shall guard the right;
And dying men shall point us to the star
That dawning on the world shall make Il
light.
