the Tribune from La Guayara, Vene-
zuela. says,
II Is believed that the prospects for

been for some time. One Of the most
recent reports Is that President San
Clemente and his cabinet have aban-
doned Bogota and Anapoima and set
lied IN Tena, north Of the capital. This.
however. Is unconilrmed, and there are
other reports from equally trustworthy
sources. denying that General Tribe,
with his rebel army. Is near Bogota.
A detachment OF government troops
under General Palacia had a fierce en-
gagement with band OF insurgents re-
Gently az a place called Jijeo. about
twenty miles from BarranQuilia. Both
sides claim the victory. II Is said the
insurgents lost over 200 killed and
wounded. and $50 were taken prisoners.
The government Lost At least 100 men.

prove a good help to carry the stock
successfully through winter. The
fact that the stalks can be stacked
properly out in the fields without
taking up baru or shed room should
help to make them more popular for
winter food than they are at present.
\ good deal of their value depends
upon tue way they are cured and pre-.
served.
1t is best TO stack the stalks as soon
rs possible in the fall after the corn
has been cut and the ears taken of. If
allowed TO stand in the field their
lower ends get water-soaked and this
spoils them for all use, either in put
ting them away in the barn or stack
ing them under sheds. Just as soon
as the husking is over, the stalks
should be stacked on sunny day,
and not hight after a rain when they
are wet. Let the stack be well built.
and the rains and SHOWS of winter
will do no dam age to tho stalks ex
cept a few outside aud on the bottom.
When the stack is properly put uu
nearly all the butts will be outside,
aud the curing process will continue
without injury to the finer portions.
y good, dry place should be chosen
IN the field, where water will not col.
lect. Begin the stack by setting one
bundle on end, and around this. and
leaning against it, set the Other :, con.
tinuing so until the base OF the stack
IS about fifteen feet across. The out.
side rows of bundles will slant toward
the centre, and the stacker takes his
position in the middle and lays n new
course with few bundles laid on top
of each other. Each course should be
made with the sharpest possible watch
to the outside, because corn stalks
will not mat together on the outside
like hay and keep the rain from reach
ing the inside. Thus it is necessary
to give such pitch to all tho stalks
that the rain which penetrates through
the outside row will be led of. The
water will thus accumulate on the
butts where the sun can soonest dry
it of.
When The top of the stack is only
four feet across it is time to put on
the top. Take an cight-foot rail
sharpened ut one end, and plunge it
half It's length into the centre of the
stack. Set up bundles around this
rail or stick, ana ito them securely to
IL with stout Irvine or wire. III there
is danger from high windsrun another
piece of twiue around the stack half
way down, and anchor the whole stack
down to pegs driven in tho ground
1u this way stacks of cornstalks will
weather the toughest wind storms,
and will he well preserved for food
until spring. $. Wilson, in

Fences ON the rnrm.

One Of the most expensive luxuries
on the farm are the fences. Many
farms are cut up into many fields by
division fences. These are sources of
much annoyance and considerable
cost, and are harbor for noxious
weeds, insects and vermin. They are
expensive to keep in repair, waste n
strip of land, and worst Of all, they
cut up the fields so that the farmer is
compelled to till the soil with short
rounds, wasting his time in turning
at the ends of the rows; while. if we
would lay out the divisions in long,
narrow strips, we could utilize horse
and man power for actual work instead
of wasting it in useless turning.
There is absolutely no excuse for nine
tenths of the division fences. Only
permanent pastures should be fenced
of. Land that is farmed in regular
rotation should not be pasiured, for
pasturing it, as rule, does more in
jury to the land than the pasture is
worth. If we use the three year rota-
ton we have but few months n
most in the three years for pasture
Ii the four-yeRr rotation is adopted.
and we wish to produce clover-seed.
we have possibly five montha ont of
tour years; and that never pays for
the fences and the annoyance that
they cause.-The Epitomist.

A bride is a bride, but for all that

girlish bride from the bride who has

your wedding outfit and are still on
the sunny side of twenty five, choose
silk and chiffon, mass of fuEiness,
for your wedding gown. If you have

is attractive, but the balance of com.
pensation seems to be on the side of
