A public man who formerly lived
much in Spain, who knows the Ian
guage like a native, and who has
large acquaintance among Spanish
politicians, has inst returned here
from a few weeks holiday, spent chief
~ in Madrid and Malaga. He says
that the condition of that country Is
one of indescribable pathoS. The peo-
pie are broken-hearted over the TRACE
dy which they see in the shipping OF
their young Sous by ten of thousands
to death in Cuba; but with them it is
all a matter of savage and implacable
pride to go ON and send still more.
Crowds assemble everywhere along
the routes to Cadiz, and as they wit
ness the departure of the troops they
weep aud groan and pray; but the pat
riotic feeling is still so bitter that any
one who raised a public objection to
the sacrifice would be in imminent dam
ger of lynehing. The same spirit still
prevails In the cortes. Probably ma
jorlty of its me nbers are entirely con-
WINGED that Gen. Weyler's task in
Cuba is a hopeless one: but the poll
tician who would say so publicly
would be knitted before he could get
home. Knowledge of this IS what re-
strained Martinez Gampos from telling
the truth to the cortes, as he had MI
nounced he would do, and it is what
absolutely prohibits free speech on the
subject in Spain. 1t is admitted in
private talk, though. that the rich and
influential class of Cubans have finally
turned solidly against Spain, and the
gloomy impression prevails that the
insurgents will be in Havana by New
Years. What will be done then, no
one is willing to think Meantime, fe-
rocious efforts will be made to stamp

shreddIng Corn Fodder.

Newspaper bulletin 35, Indiana ex-
pertinent station: During the past few
years unusual interest has been taken
by farmers in the subject of shredding
fodder. Many have hesitated to shred,
thinking that the shredded corn would
not keep well In the NOW or stack
When shredding was first practieed,
more or less fodder was shredded in a
somewhat damp condition. When
such corn was used it invariably heat
ed In the NOW. became musty and
gave unsatisfactory results. A knowl-
edge of such unsatisfactory preserya-
ton has restrained some people from
shredding their fodder. although had
the crop been properly handled there
is little doubt but what these same per-
sons would have become indorsers OF
the process. Fodder that is shredded
should not be run through the machine
until 1t is entirely dry and we'll cured.
1t would be better overdry than not
dry enough. Last season at the 1ndi-
ana experiment station we shredded all
of our corn fodder (stover) and with
the most satisfactory results. 1t kept
we'll in the NOV, and was free from
mustiness. The cattle and sheep ate it
freely, and it was used well into the
spring with the stock. This fall we
will shred nearly all of our 1896 crop.
Shredded fodder presents several i'm
portant points in its favor:
First-It is more economical to feed
than the uncut corn. Seeond-t is
eaten up cleaner by the stock than
most cut fodder is, there being less
waste, due to the absence OF the hard,
sharp-edged short butt pieces Of stalks
usually found in cut fodder. Third
The refuse makes better material for
bedding than does whole stalks or cut
pieces, being finer and softer. Fourth
1t handles far better In the manure
pile than does the entire stalk. Fifth
1t does not make the mouths OF cattle
sore, while that of coarsely cut fodder
oftentimes does. Sixth-It packs more
economically in the NOW than does I'M
cut fodder. The feeding value Of
shredded and cut fodder is practically
the same. Shredding is coming more
and more into practice, and poany
farmers are making use Of the process.

Fixing the Poultry House.

In the winter your poultry is com
PEELED to be under shelter much of the
time, and you should see to 1t that the
poultry house is put in proper condi-
ton for them before severe weather
sets in, says an exchange. Put on the
whitewash wherever it will stick,
walls. roof. nests and ALL see that the
perches are in good condition, free from
sharp edges, nails or any other thing
that might injure the fowl. Have your
perches all on the same level to avoid
crowding at the top. Don't have them
too high. one and half or two feet
is sufficient. Where perches are too
high, fowls, especially the larger va
rieties are apt to injure themselves in
flying up or down. See that the nest
boxes are all right. easy of access and
clean, with good fresh straw in them
occasionally. 1t is a good idea to place
nest boxes in the darkest part OF the
house. as 1t is a hens nature to hide
her nest. and the more seclusion you
can give her at the laying hour, the
better she likes it.

i've seasons the import had gone on
with marvellous rapidity until it reach

The severe drouth, however, which
lately afflicted several of the Australian
colonies, has temporarily retarded this
development, and for the season lately
closed only 100000 pounds were re-

Europe early last August and produced
two important results. The Dams, who
have been watching with great anxiety
the growth of the Colonial butte trade,
were advised from Australia ofthe po-

they had the winters trade very much
