Fosters Plight.

Secretary F,ster's trio to Elrope has
caused much speculate on, and the reason
has fnally leaked out. The Secretary is
threatened with heart failure and has
been notified by the ply sicisns that
his only safety lies in his immediate
withdrawal from the Cabinet, or the
turning over Of all his official duties to
one of the Assistant Secretaries.
Ever since the attack Of grip which
prostrated him in the early winter his
pulse has been so high and his heart so
irregular that the physicians treating
him have expected a collapse 10 occur.
The doctors agree that the trouble is tie
result of excessive tobacco smoking. bot
the Secretary will not consent u give up
the habit altogether and, indeed, he has
hardly moderated in this respect
Within the last week Secretary Foster
has been convinced that he is bordering
on the condition which brought such
tragic end in the case of Secretary Win
dom He resolved to 60 abroad for a
short period Of rest and also for the pur-
pose Of consulting European Specialists.
In the meantime it is feared that be has
already delayed too long, and may be
compelled finally to relinquish the port
folio which came into his hands upon
the death of Secretary Window from
heart failure.

A good start is essential to success, and
ewes should be in condition to manufac-
ture large quantity Of milk they
therefore must not be poor. TIE only
food the lamb can take for few weeks
is milk, and to provide good supply of
this, the ewes must be fed with suit .bls
food for its production. As with COWS
and other animals required to yield milk,
it is necessary that the mother should
receive nitrogenous food consequently
high quality cakes, peas, beans. bran and
oats are all specially valuable at this
time, but it not infrequently happens
that when the flow is unduiy increased
the mother provides more than the lamb
can take, consequently she is not proper
" MIXED out the milk thus gets bad
in the udder, and unless wstchful pre-
cautions are taken she suffers from
mammitis or garget oats should there
fore be used with care and discretion.
Until the lambs can feed on their own
account, the mothers should convert in
TO milk, or partially digest, a pound
weight OfstrOng corn per lday, besides
making milk from additional food as
the lambs begin to pick about for them
selves the corn may be gradually drafted
from the ewes trough TO the lambs
trough, but it is N ore necessary 10 con-
sider what is the best form for corn to
take. A we'll known authority cites very
fine ground liRseed cake and the husk of
peas as excellent for keeping lambs
healthy. Where green fodder has not
been provided, the best substitute is
found in very finely sliced roots, which
should be given at very frequent inter-
yals, and then only in small quantities,
other Sise they become stale and the
lambs will not BE- tempted to eat them.
The eve and lamb both require hay
good hzy-in fact, on the ordinary farm
the best hay should be set apart for the
lambs which are to be forced. 1t is al
most impossible to succeed in fatteniDg
lambs without good hay.

Pasturing Wheat.

Occasionally farmers are known 10
have pastured their growing wheat with
supposed beneficial results. Obviously
there should be in such cases so Iuxuri-
ant growth as to make a temporary
check desirs bic. and the pasturing should
be done by animals Of light weight and
never when the plants could be tram
pied into soft, clay sol To test this
question with some accuracy by actual
comparison between contiguous pasiured
and unpsstured lots, trias we're made
at the Kansas station with wheat sown
in September on fifteen plots. As re
ported in the station bulletin, COWS were
pastured on five of there plots in October
and November, and on five others in
April, and the remaining five plots were
unpastnTed
In this test the unpastured plots
showed an average gain of Is bushels
per acre over those pastured. Whether
the food obtained by pasturing will CON-
pensate for this difference in yield can
not well be determined on 50 small a
scale. The pasturing Il whrai, however
is considered by the citation officers an
important practical question, as many
farmers place no small dependence on
the food that their wheat fields furnish
in tall and spring.

In q series of letters written 10 C0sss-
N GesficnaeH is one from a New York
farmer. who has this 20 say about build
ing and covering silos Theoretically.
the only object in enclosing a silo is to
exclude air from sides and bottom. Then
what can be gained, 50 far as preserva-
ton Of silage Is concerned. by double
boarding outside with matched lumber
and paper between2 If he lining Of the
silo be such as 70 completely exclude tie
air, is not the inter6iling With sawdust
and the Interpreting Of paper entirely
superhuous? We ali kDos that the in
side partition must ne air tight or ensi-
lage rots. Again, after paying 3 man
several days work trsmpiDg the pit, the
contents settle somewhat. Then what
has been gained by trampingp The spe-
citic gravity Of the mass packs it more
solidly, after il becomes sOitened by the
necessary fermentation, than forty men
and horses could do before the fermenta-
ton has taken place. Thirdly. the only
object in covering a silo is to prevent the
too rapid escape of moisture and heat.
Il is proved by the experience of humid
reds that covering of swsle grass or cut
straw a foot deep, when compacted,
serves this purpose completely. Then
what pos sible good can be oerived from
the extra tight board and paper covering
and few tons weighing?
A second correspondent gives US his
experience with a so called cheap silo.
The silo is built with good foundation
laid in cement The uprights are by S
inches by "a feet. The outside is cover
ed with novelty siding, the inside lined
with old boards, layer of heavy tarred
paper and last matched hemlc k, dress
ed on one side, put on vertically. In
filling this silo the silage is dropped into
the center of the pit, where it stays for
twenty four hours, when one man spreads
it evenly over the whole surface, keeping
the center higher than the sides and do.
ing very little tramping about the edges.
This method gives the settling mass q
constant outward pressure, which is de-
, sirable in keeping the air excluded from
the sides. The silage is often allowed to
lie in heap as it drops from the carrier
for two orthree days, ifweather prevents
cutting and hauling, and then the heat
ed mass is spread, giving an even, high
temperature to all parts Of the silo.
The frsf year this correspondent cover.
ed with tar paper and boards and one
foot's depth of the silage was spoiled.
The second year he covered with straw
only, with much less waste. The last
two years he has cut the fodder after
husking the field corn directly on the ST.
laee already heated and settled, and the
last method has gi,en a result as nearly
perfect a. can be desired. The rising
steam from the silage softens the tough,
dry cornstalks so that the cattle waste
none. The silage comes out sweet, not q
bushel having been spoiled the pastswo
years. He feeds two bushels per day to
each COW, with light feeding of hay at
noon. In addition 10 the silage and hay
each COW in milk is fed four quarts oi
bran and two quarts of cotton seed meal
Kith highly satisfactory results in the
way Of milk, butter, etc.
