A Massachusetts, officer details with

other with peach butter. while the de-

of your house Such building as this
can be put up for one-third the cost OF
80 by 60 foot bank barn and be INFINITE
ly better as place to house cows. Two
objections will probably be urged
against this single purpose barn-flrst'
that you will need large barn anyhow,
for the storage of hay and grain, ano'
secondly, that it will be announcement TO
get the coarse provender from the stor-
age barn to the COW barn. In answer TO
the first objection l can say II new
buildings are to be put up, build them
long and narrow, as in the case OF the
COW barn before described, for the same
saving in the cost of the smaller sized
lumber can be made. Lumber OF what
we call yard sizes costs $12 to$l5 per
thousand. Sawed sizes cost SIS 10 W.
and quite large sticks. which have to De
of good pine, may cost $50. Such a
building as above indicated can be bullt
OF yard sizes and would not cost over
half as much as square bank barn or
the Chester county pattern OF the same
capacity. If your old barn is good, take
our your basement stables, drop your
bays and so increase the storage ca
pacity.
AS to the second objection, every
| farmer with land enough to put ON Az
or so cows to 100 acres will surely have
: silo and cut his fodder and his hay,
and with we'll arranged hanging tracks
can take his cut feed across his barn
yard into his COW barn with more salts
, faction than in the old way of taking
forkfuls of hay and sheaves of fodder
through the dark and narrow entries
An extension of this idea of single
purpose barns would suggest horse
barn also. which in many ways would
| be preferable to stabling them in the
Easements of bank barns. We used to
! imagine that great straw sheds were
needed for the storage of litter, the smell
ter Of the stock and the protection or
the manure. Now we haul our manure
directly to the fields, our cows are not
let out when they require shelter, and
the straw should be cut into inch
lengths at the time of thrashing, in
which case it can be housed in one-third
the usual space, and actually costs less
than to store it away uncut.-Phila-

Tho Osulc In the War.

Some one has called the mule the
best soldier we had in the war. 1t is
certain that the service he rendered
is beyond calculation. Some teams
were conspicuous, as witness the his
tory of the following: 1t was fitted out
in Berryvil!e, Md, in April. 1861. A
year later it was transferred to Wash
ington, and in May was sent to Fort
Monroe to join MtClellan's army. 1t fol-
lowed the latter up the peninsula, was
at the siege of Yorktown, the battle of
Williamsburg. and in the swamps Of
the ChickahOminy. Participating in the
Seven Days battles, it finally brought
up at Harrison's Landing. whence it
went back to Washington. 1t then
hauled ammunition for the second bat
tie OF Bull Run, followed the army to
Antietam, and from there to Freder-
icksburg. When General Hooker took
command of the army it went with him
through the Charlottesville fights In
1864 we find 1t at City Point with Grant.
1t served with him until the war closed,
and a year later was in Washington as
ready for duty as ever. The team was
frequently without a bite of hay or
grain for four or five days at stretch,
and nothing to eat but what it could
pick up by the wayside. There were
times also when it went without water
for twenty-four hours. Those mules
should have been tenderly cared for
| during the rest of their lives, and never
work ed exceDt for eXercise-NeW York

Durvce's ZOulves.

August 30, 1862, closed the second
series of battles at Manassas. or Ball
Run. One dramatic sequel of the days
operations was the r'itz John Porter
case. When Porter pushed his wnolc
corps at one lunge between JACKSON
and Longstreet, his extreme left. which
Longstreet enveloped with heavy odds,
was held by Hazlett's battery, Fifth
United States artillery. General War
ren's demi-brigade. numbering about
| 900 men. connected HaZlett with Tie
rest OF the corps. Shortly the fortunes
of the day depended upon Porter's
corps. and the fate of the corps rested
with Hazlett's battery. The guns kept
Longstreet in check while Porter
formed his lines in front of Jackson.
Longstreet's men finally rushed upon
them. and Warren's skirmish line drew
back. leaving the battery supports
alone to confront a furious multitude.
These supports were the Duryee Zou-
ayes, AGO strong. Warned in time,
Haz.ett began to draw off his pieces.

On the evening of the day that the
side of Vicksburg had been made with
great loss of life to our side and no
practical advantage, General Grant, in
his rounds, came to where my regiment
was stationed at the front. having been
in the hottest of the fight. Grant was
great man for talking with his
subordinate officers at times, and he
said to me:
What do you think of this business
to-day, Mct'all?"
It's been good fight" l replied.
But ! must say, general, that | ser-
ously object to going any further for

be gained by it, and it is sacrifice OF

Rival Melodies,

During the war it so happened that
at one time the armies on both sides
were encamped on the bank of a river
ON one side the union army; across
the confederate. And as they lay
there in their encampments the bands
on both sides began to discourse music.
On the northern side it was The Star
Spangled Banner" swelling out upon
the breeze, and on the southern side
the band responded with "Dixie's
Land" Again. the northern side said
in their music. Hail Columbia" and
yet the southern bands responded with
pixies Land" Again. the northern
bands played Yankee Doodle" but
the response was only "Dixie's Land"
And then chord of Home, Swee.
Home was struck up on the northern
side of the stream and the bands on
the southern side took it up. and it was
Home. Sweet Home" on both Sides
and every voice responded in perfect
harmony, and strains of those instru-
mcnts and the great soul of the conn
try breathed anew and again with the
delightful inspiration of the love of
home. That was the lesson that WAS
implanted deep in the hearts of all the
men assembled there.-Extract from
Congressman Robinson's Speech.

to say that it is impossible for a judge
to score fowls in any considerable num-

Greater Poultry Profits.

Years ago, says E. H. Davis in The
Poultry Monthly, the poultry business
was not as lucrative as it is at the
present time. During the winter
months. although our poultry was we'll
sheltered and fed and great care used
to keep the buildings clean. giving
plenty of fresh water, etc, We found at
the opening of the spring we had no
remuneration for our labor, as cost of
grain, scraps, potatoes, ETC., far ey-
ceeded the income of eggs.
We have now better way of feeding,
and most excellent results have fol-
lowed. We feed cut green bones in
fair quantity every other day, and some
of the time every day. They are mex
pensive, and with good bone cutter
they make when cut fresh every day
so nice food that We can only liken
it to a nice rare steak to hungry man.
The fowls love it. They thrive, and the
chickens grow rapidly when fed on it.
The mineral part of this food gives
chickens material for their growing
bones, and for the laying hens the
shells, while the meat. gristle and
juices in these green bones give ma
terial for the flesh to the growing
chickens and interior of the egg in
abundance
So now our fowls, instead of being
overfat in winter, are givinG us eggs
Instead Of being a sorry looking, de.
jected, Improbable lot during the mott
ing period. they are wide awake and
strong. and many of them go so ia,
as to give us eggs regularly at this
time The grain bill being largely re-
duced. the egg yield being increased
and no loss from sickness, all aid in
making our winter and spring record
very encouraging, and no one could in
duce us to neglect the feeding of green
bone freshly cut at all seasons of the
year.
