will touch the frame at eight points.
Start by lacking stave to the frame,
then'add slaves, toe mailing them on to
the other at top and bottom with one
nail at each end Of the stave, and so on
round. The platform should be at least
10 feet from the ground and staid SO
that it cannot twist or sway The hoops
can then be put on, and as they are
frightened are pounded into place and
trued up SO that the inside surface
shall be as true as possible.
For hoops some think the seven-eighth
of an inch rod with burrs at both ends,
using by 4 inch scantling long
enough for two hoops, makes the best
tightener on silo. Some think the fiat
hoop the best. The later idea is the SO
inch wide Page fence four bands to
silo, for hoops, as described above. The
method of drawing these bands together
is shown in Fig. 2, the wire being
snugly wrapped about two by 4 inch
oak scantlings Sc inches long, SO as to
come (when put about the silo) within
about ten inches of each other, and are
then brought together with two stout
bolts, with double burrs. incidentally
these bands are placed about II inches
from each other so as to have a. man
hole between each, as illustrated in
Fig. of the second cut. When the silo
is complete, a machine g inches square
is marked out, and cleats are nailed on
to hold the stayes.frmly together. The
''hole" is then sawed out so as to have
~ inch bevel, as seen in dotted
line, and is put back into its place, and
makes perfect alright door, only
needing little curtain of tarred paper
placed over it on the inside when the
silo is filled.
Fig. shows a round hoped silo set
up against the end of barn, with
sort Of connecting link with the barn,
shown at A. which helps to hold it
solid, affords partial protection and
fills up two corners. The balance of
the silo is not covered, the hoops being

when to Sow Buckwhent.

The. old rule of delay the sowing Of
buckwheat until the 4th Of July. is
hardly safe one to follow in northern
states, where frost often nips this ten
derest of all vegetables before its grain
is perfected. There is, of course, dan
ger from too early sowing of this grain,
exposing it to the severe heats which
sometimes prove as destructive as
frosts. blasting the blossoms 50 that
they do not set with grain. But if the
buckwheat can be sown during the last
days Of June there is little danger.that
it will be blasted by the heat, and the
loss from untimely frosts, which is the
evil that is most to be feared, will be
avoided. This is the advice of The
American Cultivator.

In setting up stave silo 1t is neces-

four posts solid in the ground close to

NAN WHO DEFENDED eUITEAU
A Morose, UnHpproaehnbie Hermit
Living Alone in n Sc
cIuded spot

A party Of Indiana fishermen just re-
turned from trip among the remote
and unfrequented lakes Of northern
Indiana, ran across a little cabin occu-
pied by Attorney Scovill, the lawyer
who defended c. J. Cuiieau in his trial
for the assassination Of President Car
field. says the Emporia Gazette.
The humble cottage in which SEQ
viii was found is situated near the banks
of Mud lake, where he lives the life Of
the most rigid recluse, neither seeing
nor beingEeen. His simple wantsare sup
piled by the merchants Of the nearest
town. lie puts in his time, nobody
knows how as his unkempt and un-
couth figure is seldom seen outside the
walks Of the little low cottage, half
hidden by the growth Of twining vines
and uBderbrush.
From an able, affable and influential
barrister, Scoyill has grown into tac-
turn, morose, unapproachable hermit,
desiring no communication with the
world in which he was such congpicu-
Gus figure as only counsel fol his rela-
tive IS years ago. Scoyill feels that he
is still Stunned and despised by every
body for his part in trying to save the
neck Of Guiteau on the ground Of
hereditary insanity, though he con-
tends that he did nothing more than
his duty. The loss of his wife and
other misfortunes that seemed to pur-
sue him with a relentless hand added to
his melancholy and confirmed him in
his determination 10 abandon the
world and spend the remained Of his
days in seciusion.
For several years Scoyill has led the
life Of a hermit, spending his time at
the most secluded spots he could find.
lie still contends that Guiteau was men
tally irresponsible for his act in kill
ing The president, and points TO the rec
ord Of the family, a number Of whom
have both before and since the tragedy |
been confined in madhouses.
