Economy in Feeding Corn Fodder.

The old idea that all the virtue of
the corn fodder was contained in its
leaves and the small part of tn stalk
above the ear used to be quite preva-
lent. 1t was this notion that gave rise
to the topping of corn. Late analysis
of the different portions of the stalk
show that the upper part is less nutri-
tive than the butts. That also is the
verdict of the COW. Watch how she
eats a whole cornstalk. Invariably
she grasps it by the middle, doubles it
up and chews both ways, rejecting the
tassels and extreme butts. These last
are hard and need TO be cut or crushed
to make their nutritive matter digest
ible. The late experiments made by
the North Carolina station show that
the blades contain only II per cent of
the digestible matter of the entire
plant, ga per cent of the leaves them
selves is digestible, while 66 per cent of
the stalks below the ears is digestible
and u per cent of the husks or
shucks. The husks must, however,
be kept moist in some way in order to
make them digest easily. If--Cffey
dry up entirely they become of little
value. Salt sprinkled on the corn at
cribbing time tends to keeps them in a
moist condition.

AN UNAUTHORIZED RUMOR.

When a canard gets move on it
clip it.. The one reported about Judge
Terrell's resignation of the Turkish
mission and his return to Austin with
his family has been literally clipped
by numerous papers in and out of the
state, and some of the papers have
gone so far as to name his successor.
We have no doubt that numerous gen.
tlemen have prepared their applica-
tions and recommendations to Mr..
Cleveland for the anticipated va
cancy.
No information has been received by
Judge Terrell's immediate family in
this city of any such intention on his
part, but quite to the contrary. The
most recent letters from himself and
family anticipate long residence at
his mission. We know this will dis
appoint a number of aspirants, but it
will save them unnecessary
trouble and perhaps the expense
of visiting Washington City.
The rumor had no foundation.
Judge Terrell Is mortal and like
others may die, but he is also doubt
less like other office holders in another
respect-he never resigns, so that
none of the numerous aspirants may
hope to paddle the light barge of the
Turkish ambassador on the waters OF
the Bosphorus for the term of four
years at least unless they do 80 as
guests of Judge Terrell.

THE BRAZILIAN TROUBLES.

Brazil has not turned out model
republic. The titled arlstocracy had
too much to do with the deposition of
Dom Pedro to give efficient elements
to the component parts of a republic.
There were too many ambitions
nursed in private and too little patri-
otism in the Brazilian revolution to
encourage the hope for a stable repub.
lie. A republic can spring only from
the masses of an intelligent people.
When the people have very little to
do with the establishment of a repub-
lie except to be used by the nobility
for food for powder and lead, there is
very little hope that such republic
will last any longer than the disap-
pointment and defeat Of some poll
tician, and then 1t will turn out that
the whole thing was weak and wrong

How to Plant a Post

AS to setting posts top downward to,
make them last there has beon .
great deal OF discussion. Many years
ago, by way of test, a farmer set two
gate posts, one top and the other
butt downward. The latter was taken
from the lower and what might be
supposed the best end of the LOG, and
both We're entirely sound. He had
some years since, occasion to remove.
the posts; the latter was entirely rot
TED OIL and the former would haveN
lasted six, eight OF more years longer.
lie tried two pieces of fence post with
similar results. 1 is such experiments
as these have got into most mems
heads that posts set top downward
Will last longest. Such practical tests
are OF more Importance in deciding
such tests than all the philosophical
reasons that can be produced. 1t is
moisture that rots timber. Keep it dry
and it is exempt from decay. There.
are many kinds of shrubs, ETC., that
will propagate from the slip, for in
STAGE, the currant, grape and willow.
THESE, although separated from
any connection with the root.
continue to elevate the moisture from
the earth so as to cause their growth.
OF cours the vessels of post timber, il
placed in the ground according to the
arrangements of nature, will elevate
the moisture and keep the timber
damp, but if hat order is reversed it
remains comparatively dry, hence the
principal reason, no doubt, why pots
lasts longer top downward.-Farmers

CHRONIC CATARRH.
HISTORY OF A CASE THAT NEEDS NO
COMMENT.
What Has Been Done Can Be Done Again

The efficacy of Pe.ru-na in the cure
of Chronic Catarrh of long standing
can not be told in greater eloquence or
more convincing argument than by
simply making extracts from letters
received from grateful parents. The
following interesting extracts from a
correspondence with MIR. Peter Hat
tenberger, of Potertield, Wis, tell
their own story:
PoRTERFIELD, Wis, Aug. !, 1890.
DIR. S. B. Hartman-Dear Sir: [
have been suffering with chronic ca
tarrh about nine years and it has now
settled on my lungs and have all the
symptoms of consumption.

three weeks as you advised and feel
a great deal better. The cough has
nearly left me and my appetite is
getting better every day and my sal
low complexion is almost gone and my
skin is getting white. The catarrh in
my head still troubles me Sd much
that 1 get almost crazy.

cough is gone and the catarrh is COM
mencipg to leave my head and throat.

1 am still following your advice,
and am getting along well.
February u, 1891.
am still improving in every way.
The catarrh is leaving my head and
throat.
April %, 1891.
am still using your medicine. MY
health is improving right along, my
appetite is good, and 1 feel better than
| have in five or six years.
August %, 1891.
am rid of the catarrh now and feel
perfectly we'll and happy. You are
at liberty to publish my case for the
benefit of others, and If there is any
one who has any doubt about your
medicine curing catarrh let them
write me and will be very glad to
answer them. God bless you and
yours. PETER HOTTENBERGER,
Porterfield, Wis.
1t is to Pe-ru-na that he owes his
life and health which he enjoys to-
day, without the shadow of 9

have seats in the senate because of
their wealth." fourth, THE class OF
oddities and accidents" and fifth,
1.-The old fogies of the senate. Six
broadguaged men taken from
both parties made the division
OF senators into these five classes
without any consultation among
each other and the list published is
that upon which five out of the six
agreed. In the first class there are ~
senators, among whom is Mr.. NILS
In the fifth class are II senators, among
whom is Mr.. Coke. The second class
includes the senators from New York,
Pennsylvania and Maryland. After
the five classes were exhausted the SIX
gentlemen set down long list OF
"senators who seem to belong to no
logical category-simply commonplace
men of no decided characteristics, "
and the article sums up the senate as
body of men Commonplace in aoil
ity, courage and dignity"
The cause for this decadence Is
founded on the low level to which pol
itics has descended in our day
and the blame is put upon the
people for it. The professions
and money-getting pursuits are mo
nopolizing the brains of the nation
and politics has deteriorated. The
article concludes as follows: "Slnce
the cause of the senates decline is
clearly the decline of the political
spirit of the people, the senate will re-
gain it's dignity and its usefulness IN
proportion to the rise in the political
spirit of the people. There is no me-
chanical device whereby the lost
dignity can be restored. The election
of senators directly or in effect by the
popular vote, methods that have been
much discussed, would hardly improve
the senate; for are the governors OF the
states ADLER or more dignified men
than the senators2 The organization
of the senate and even the method
of the election of senators vindicate
the wisdom of the fathers its present
personnel simply marks the decline of
politics as one of the noble profess
sions"
Now, do not these brief extracts
from these two articles furnish us, as
thinking people, grave cause for re-
Election? If, after only a hundred
years of experiment with our form OF
government, our people are thus losing
interest in it and are growing careless
as to its proper conduct, should not
there go out all over this land the
warning cry of danger that men may
be turned from their listlessness and
the nation be strengthened in the bull
warks of its freedom? Mayhap the
recent conduct of the senate may re-
suit in this, and prove blessing I'M
told.

"REPENTANCE AND JUSTICE"

We are sorry to see that our hlghly
esteemed contemporary, The Day
Globe of Waco, is not entirely ortho'
dox. In an article on Repentance
and Justice, which has been extern
sively copied and favorably comment
ed on, the editor ofthat paper doubts
the efficacy of gallOws repentance
He claims that these converted muir
derers ought to be taught that justice
demands their punishment hereafter
as well as in this world. That is
contrary to the teaching Of the Chris
tian churches. If the sins Of these
murderers are pardoned, there can be
no punishment according to the or
thodox. A pardon releases crimi'
nal from suffering any penalty. Our
friend will have to mend his theolo-
gy, but-yes, but what? There's the
rub! Who can believe that these
murderers have duly repented and
been pardoned? 1t is said God can do
ANYTHING. God cannot do wrong,
cannot do an injustice, and as much as
these gallows Christians may take the
flattering JUNCTION of their pardon to
their souls, we don't believe word
of it. If one of them, protesting per-
feet faith in his being Immediately
transplanted from the scatfold to para
disc, happened to secure an earthly
pardon from the governor OF the state
and was set free at the last moment,
there is very little doubt but that he
would repeat the crime in month.
Religion is a thing of cultivation; a
daily conflict with ones own vices
and a trust in God for help to over
come the old Adam within us. We
have but one example of the certain
uardon of an executed criminal, the
thief on the cross, and that was a
miracle. The editor of The Day Globe

the right and orthodox way. When

nECAnRNCE OF THE SENATE.

In that most admirable of monthly
publications, The Forum, there are
this month two articles that every citi-
zen of our Union should read. They
are "Shall the Senate Rule the Re-
nublicY" and 1.-THE Senate in the Light
of History" The first is criticism OF
the senate because of the exhibition
il has Just made of itself, and its i'm
potency under the rules. 1t points
out that the senate was created as one
part of the federal government, and
its duty was to "act" with the other
branch of congress and the president.
The senate cannot be abolished with
out 1.-The abandonment of the federal
principle" so its defects must be cured
in order that our form of government
can be maintained and made effectual.
But as each branch OF congress is a
supreme rule to ITSELF the senate
must cure its own defects, which are
the rules that allow a minority to
govern. The article is complete ex-
plosion of the theory of senatorial
courtesy" and an unanswerable ar
cument for the revision of the rules.
The second article institutes a most
whitening comparison between the
senate of today and that of 1S49, and
then goes into an investigation of the
cause of the decadence. The present
senators are divided into five general
classes. First, 1.-The senators Of the old
theory and traditions of the senate
second, THE professional politicians
of the senate" third, 1.-THE men who
