Silos.-Prof GeorgesOn at the Kan
sas Dairy association convention said:
Il would like to indorse the question
of silos. We have had fifty-six head of
cattle, which we wintered last year.
and they were wintered for six months
on the corn that was raised on twenty
acres or little less; all put in the silo.
They were fed an average of FORTY
pounds of ensilage per day. We began
feeding it the latter part of October
and it lasted until the middle of Nav
They got nothing else except a little
corn stalks fed in the daytime. It
kept them in good condition. The
Shorthorns and those cows which We
did not care to feed for milk did not
get grain OF anything else."
New York Milk.-Mr. Van Valken-
burg, assistant commissioner of aeri-
culture for New York, said to a re-
porter for The World, in relation to
milk as the farmers send it in: "About
four cans in one hundred show adul-
teraticn. They show an average of
about 10 per cent of adulteration nv
watering or skimming. This repre-
sents only about sixteen quarts of
water added to 1000 quarts of milk. 7
claim that there are no two cities in
the United States that are suppliec
with milk so nearly up to the stand
ard made by the state legislature of
New York as in New York and Rrool-
lyn."
Walking Farm Horses-Anv
good breed of trotting horses. or anv
horse which has thoroughbred blood in
it's veins. can by practice be made tn
walk fast. No common-bred animal
can be made fast walker. A fast
walker is made by careful exercise in
that gait and it is delightful one for
a traveller if his steed walks four NJ
five miles an hour. 1t is also yery. inn
portant to the farmer to have a fast
walking team: but it depends much
on the rider or driver whether a horse
ever attains this highly esteemed
and Home.
Danger in Holding Stock.-Th.
farmer who holds for rise" does not
always get it. He loses a double in
terest, for the farmer who has money
in hand can save twice the legal in
terest by buying all his needed winter |
supplies in bulk and by paying cash
for them. After stock is ready for
market there Is a probability that the |
added cost Of feeding win Offset any
increase in value.

TWO BRIDES.

New York in day offers some in
teresting contrasts. The day that the
Vanderbilt wedding party rolled up to
st. Thomas's with rustic of satins and
fash of diamonds and perfume of
flowers, and the bride with her Duke,
with the pretty bridesmaids scatter
ing blossoms in their path, came down
the church aisle, and oil of them rolled
away In their coaches to the wedding
breakfast with pomp and pageantry-
that same day another procession was
watched by World reporter.
1t was also bridal procession. The
bride was dressed IN white robes and
upon her brow there was the band of
a holy order. She ro ie with the bride
groom Death in plain, cheap coffin
IN q sable hearse. There were no
flowers, no emblems. The single car
riage that followed the hearse CON
tanned four placid-faced nuns. A few
passers stopped to watch the little
cortege as it crossed Broadway; a
cable car waited for the hearse to pass
and dashed on in front of the car
riage, and then the cortege had passed
out of sight, the peaceful bride to.

FASHION NOTES.

Sable, mink, martin, astrakhan and
lamb are used to accentuate cloth.
The latest velvet cape is made with
fur cores, and the effect is novel but
exceedingly stylish.
Muffs are in vogue this winter, and
they are made of various materials,
and in many shapes and sizes.
White gloves and those of pearl
colored kid are worn almost as much
in the daytime as in the evening.
Lyons tulle of diaphanous meshes is
chosen for party gowns, and this sea.
son is most often of snowy whiteness.
The rough fabrics this season in
clude the bourettes and boucle goods,
the Scotch hesther-mixed cheviots and
stylish English tweeds.
The brocaded waist is most often
round in the back, with long slender
point in front fastened by only two
darts and middle seam.
The Louis Treize, Louis Quatorze
and Seize jackets still hold their own,
and will probably remain popular and
in good style through the winter.
Gilded silver trinkets are newer and
more popular than those of bright sill
yer. They wear almost as we'll as pure
gold and are much less expensive.
Black velvet capes elaborately and
very beautifully wrought with Jet, or
nearly covered with jet and silk-cord
appliques, are exceedingly fashion,
able.
A sable jacket with gold and tur.
quoise belt has enormous gigot sleeves
OF brown velvet tucked above the ell
bow in row after row around the
arm.
Turquoise blue is even more popular
than it was last season, and, indeed,
all shades of light blue are much worn
as the navy blue so common now Tor
street costumes.
Turned-over collars of white linen.
two inches wide, mounted on straight
bands, are again worn with morning
toilets by those whose complexion will
permit the use OF this very thick
white.
A fancy for white is seen in many
things this season. Thus stock-coi-
lar of white satin ribbon drawn in
folds and tied in a bow at the back is
worn with gown of almost any color
and any fabric.
Velvet hat and bonnet crowns are in
chameleon colors wrought with silk
stitches and beeds, or they may be in
a rich and glowing monochrome or in
mingled tones to please the most re-
lined taste.
The new evening cloaks are most
picturesque wraps. Their specially
novel feature is a hood of great size,
as large as a cape, giving breadth on
the shoulders and drawn up with
rubber band beneath.
