Market Value OF Ensilaee.

Professor Phelps makes quite an
elaborate computation as regards a
fair market value Of ensilage, from
which he decides that it is worth
about one-third to one-fourth the price
per ton of good stock hay free from
clover. He figures it in this way:
There is about 4S0 pounds Of water
free or dry matter in ton Of ensilage
and 1740 pounds in a ton Of hay. but
when the digestibility is calculated,
there is S36 pounds of food elements
digestible in the ton of silage, and
about. 1000 pounds in the ton Of hay,
being near enough to call it one third
of The food value. But we do not al
ways compute the value to the dairy
man by the nutritive value if the pro-
fessor does. The more succulent and
easily digested silage when given as a
part of the food ration will produce
more milk nan one-third of its weight
in hay. That is those who have tried
it say that 80 pounds of ensilage a
day with 10 pounds of hay will give
better results than 20 pounds of hay.
AS those who have grown it for years
say the cost when In the silo is from
$3.50 per ton with best machinery up
to $3.50 when much hand labor Is used,
we think it is profitable for the farmer
to put up his ensilage.-The Cultivator.

Fatfeninr Food for Sheep.

This term fattening should be
dropped. We don't fatten now. we
feed the sheep for market. And in good
feeding the sheep will take on as much
at as may be needed to make the flesh
succulent. Even now mutton eat.rs
complain Of the excess Of fat, Which Is
a waste of good food. and no one
wants it. Feeding on the ordinary ra-
tioSs Of alfalfa or clover hay, with a
pint Of corn day, IS sufficient for a
lamb; for a two year-old or older
sheep this ration may be increased to
twice the allowance of corn. with as
much alfalfa or clover hay as will
be cate without waste.
Over feeding to fatten an animal will
put the fat on the intestines or about
the kidneys, where it is waste. The
fat should be intimately mixed with
the lean meat, and to do this fattening
must be part of the growth. This,
necessarily, cannot be made in a few
days, and thus the practice Of feeding
lambs all through the winter, slowly
gaining good flesh. will be more judi
cious and effective than to feed highly
for a few days or weeks with grain
food. All the successful experimental
feeding tests have been made during
some months, nine or twelve in the
most successful and standard trials,
and we cannot expect to gain similar
proportionate results with few weeks
excessive feeding, the results Of which
may be to make fat where it Is not
wanted, and so throw away the money
spent.
The practice is coming into general
use now for the shepherd to feed his
own lambs. and the intermediate feed
er for market is not being so much en-
couraged as he was when the owner Of
the sheep had not an easy opportunity
to do the feeding for himself. But
every sheep man should know how to
feed for himself, and now that rape
and alfalfa are coming into general
use, it Is a very easy matter to bring
the lambs up to the condition when
the finishing may be done with cheap
grain screenings and some CORN

Bogus Heads Of Incas.

If any stranger offers to sell you un-
canny-looking objects and tells you
that they are heads of Incas, who were
great warriors long ago, says the New
York Journal, beware of him and hand
not over your good dollars, for the
chances are a thousand to one that the
man is an impostor and that the So
called heads are really the product of
some factory. Genuine mummified
heads of Incas there are, but they are
rare and costly.
The warlike Incas, it appears, were
accustomed to suspend from their sad
dies the heads of their conquered en-
emies, but before doing so they sub
jecter them to certain process with
the object of rendering them as light
as possible.
First, the bones Of the skull were re-
moved, after which the head was
soaked in certain hot liquid, the re-
suit being that finally there remained
nothing but a very small yet wonder
fully lifelike countenance, Of leathern
consistency and of merely nominal
weight. A few such heads may be
found in Ecuador.
How old these heads are no one
knows, but many centuries have GER
tainly passed away since their owners
flourished. The price of such a curl
osity varies from $3.50 to $1,000.
The demand, however, has always
been greater than the supply, and this
fact recently emboldened some enter
prising but unscrupulous gentlemen
in Ecuador to open a factory for the
purpose of supplying enthusiastic col
lectors with all the mummified heads
that they might need.

Sell Button and Spoons.

The acquisition Of the Philippines
has begun to familiarize the American
public with many of the odd wares and
merchandise which are found in that
archipelago. No part of the world
is richer In shells, especially of the
pearl and mother-of-pearl variety.
For centuries there has been a steady
flow Of the latter to China, where they
are used in enormous quantities for
household decorations. Outside Of
these shells are others almost
as useful. One variety. a
conch, is cut through oblique-
IL, and according to the angle
OF the saw the resulting segment is a
spoon, ladle, a saucer, plate, cup. or
bowl After cutting they are clean
ed and polished, making a handsome
object. 1t looks like colored porce-
lain. but is far tougher and stronger.
"A shen spoon or bowl can be dropped
without danger of breaking and will
withstand hot water and cold as we'll
as wood.
Another variety Of shell is employed
for buttons. The turbinates are the
favorites. They range through hun
dred colors and patterns. and take a
very high gloss. When cut by the ma
tives, beauty of surface rather than Of
outline appears to be the main object.
The most popular shape is oblong.
Next to this is an oval, and then follow
such figures as the rounded triangle,
heart, lozenge. star. dumbbell. and ire
foil. These buttons are a miracle Of
Seheapness. Six Of them we'll mount
ed and supplied with eyelets are retail
ed in Manila for five cents.

An Enemy of tho Squash.

The large squash bug is very de-
structive, and as it lives by sucking
the juices from the plant it cannot be
destroyed by any poisonous applica-
ton. It must be circumVented by
some obstructive method. The best
the writer has yet found is the Bor-
deaux mixture spray. It adheres to
the stem of the plant so tenaciously
that a single spraying is sufficient.
But the fight is still on, even when the
vines have begun to cover the ground
and the fruit has begun to develop.
Not far from August the squash
borer begins it's deadly work. Its
presence is surely detected by the
dropping foliage, and on close inspec-
ton by a small hole where it has en-
tered the vine, always near it's root.
Once within, it bores it's way through
the pith, sometimes for distance of
several feet, from it's point Of entrance.
When matured it is about one inch in
length. It is the larva of moth that
deposits it's eggs near the growing
plant. At planting time handful of
ground tobacco stems or one or more
whole stems in each hill will assist in
warding OF the moth by it's pungent,
offensive odor. 1t is, too, an excellent
fertilizer.
A still more effective remedy is
found to be bi-sulphide of carbon. A
few drops inserted in the soil of each
hill and near the plants has in many
trials proved a sufficient protection.
The process is simple and inexpensive.

dibble to the depth Of one inch, put in

Farmers Should Keep Accounts.

II every farmer would keep accounts
with his live stock and credit each ami
NAL with what it produces, charging
against it all that it receives, there
would be no difficulty in knowing
which animals give profit. The ami
mails are, to certain extent, the GUS
toners of their owner, providing him a
market on the farm fer large share
of the grain; hay, straw, etc. 1t may
take up more time to weigh foods and
keep books on the farm. but when
the farmer can compare the profits
from each animal, and at all seasons
of the year, he will be able to Gull out
the improbable stock, as we'll as bet
ter understand how to select for the
best.

An Excellent Hay for Stock.

II you plant stock peas at the last
blowing of corn they will keep weeds
down and hold moisture for the corn.
They will also store nitrogen in the
soil and thus feed the corn. Gather
the corn and turn hogs on the peas.
Hogs will fatten faster on peas than
they will on corn, and you save your
corn to sell, or feed to other stock.
If the vines are turned under they
make splendid fertilizer. After wheat
is harvested we stir the ground and
drill in stock peas, which make excel
lent hay for stock. All stock relish it,
and will leave corn to eat it. You can
make your land richer each year, have
fatter stock and more grain TO sell.
We know this by actual experience,
having tried it for two years.-H. H.
Higgs, in The Epitomist.

Ill Balanced Fertilizers.

An i'll balanced or incomplete fertili-
zer is one which does not supply all
three elements of plant food-phos-
phoric acid, nitrogen and potash.
Sometimes a material may furnish one
or even two Of the essential ingre-
dients, but if all three are not present
the mixture may be regarded as in
complete, and what the plant fails to
find in the fertilizer it must look for
in the soil, with the result that II the
soil does not contain it the crop has
to suffer accordingly. On the other
hand, if the ingredient which is miss
ing in the fertilizer is present in the
soil it will gradually become exhausted
through continued cropping, and the
yield naturally falls off in proportion.
It is an established fact in fertiliz-
ing that one element Of plant food can
not replace another. Each has It's
special function to perform. To illus
trate: If there is enough phosphoric
acid and nitrogen in the soil to pro-
duce a 2O0-bushel crop Of Irish pota-
toes, and only enough potash to make
a 100-bushel crop, the yield would not
go above the latter figure. The ele-
ment present in the smallest proper
ton is what regulates the extent of
the yield. In other words, we meet in
feeding plants, the old maxim, "A
chain is not stronger than its weakest
link"
From what has been said it can be
seen that at once that it is both wise
and economical to feed crops like ami
mails. No one would think Of giving
horse or cow a one sided food and
expect to get full days work from
it. Every hard working animal must
have proper food and plenty Of it.
AS said before, the three ingredients
to make up a complete food for plants
are phosphoric acid, nitrogen and pot
ash. Manufacturers embody all three
in their mixtures, and the proportions
vary to suit the crops, some requiring
more of one than another.
The principal point to bear in mind
is that one sided fertilization seldom, If
ever, pays in the long run. It is much
easier to keep up the fertility Of soils
by using what is needed annually to
meet the demands Of the growing crop
than to build up land which has be-
come run down or exhausted.-George
K. Wilson, in Fruit Growers Journal.

4 BIT OF LACE.

Napoleon Slapped Jesephine's Face Be-
cause She Cut It
For $4,000 has been sold in Paris
piece of lace which was the cause Of a
quarrel between Napoleon and Joseph
inc in which the cheeks Of the empress
were slapped. 1t had been the proper
t. of Mile. Perusset, daughter Of fa-
vorite maid Of the flighty empress. Ma
poleon had brought the lace from Italy.
He often brought her beautiful things
on his return from a successful cam
paign, and Josephine never asked him
how he had got them, for she thought
that perhaps he would not care to tell.
1t was a large square Of the finest
old point de venise, and Josephine as
soon as she had it in her possession
sent for NJ. Duplan, her man milliner,
and asked him to make with it GER
tain fchu and a peplum.
impossible, your majesty" answer
eG Duplan. The piece Is too large,
and we could not arrange it graceful
ly."
"Well, cut it thtn!!"
"Cut a treasure such as that! Oh,
madam, could not do such thing"
"Nonsense! cried Josephine. The
lace was draped on her shoulders. She
knew how she wanted it. So she calm
ly took a pair of scissors and in sec
ond had it set right, while long, mar
row pieces Of the priceless stuff fell
round her.
At this moment the emperor entered
the room. "Cannibal" he cried. And
he gave her a sounding slap on her
violently rouged cheeks, which were
soon covered with tears. Duplan dis
creetly withdrew, and the lace was
thrown into a chest Of drawers. Jo-
sephins could not bear the sight OF 1t
after that and at last gave it to Nine.
Perusset her favorite maid. The odd
bits of it have now been sold for
$1,000. Another bunch fetched $1,000.
The passion of Josephine for lace
caused frequent scenes between her
and Napoleon. She would have lace,
and she seldom let anything stand in
the way of acquiring it. 1t is even said
that this frivolous fancy helped to
bring about her downfall, for Napo-
leon. who at first would not hear OF
forsaking her, one day said to the
Prince de Wagram: The cup Is full
now, prince. What do you think Jo-
sephine did lately? 'Nobbled' one OF
nv young generals and made him pass
lace for her in his top boots through
my own frontier! Her soul Is made OF
lace, prince, and that Is too fragile a
stuff for an empress's soul"

GREAT STRENGTH OF FISH.
Their Remarkable Agility Remains the
Despair Of All Scientists.

THE fight Of birds has been studied
from time out of mind without yield
ing the frst syllable Of its secret" said
an enthusiastic amateur naturalist OF
this city, but it is not whit more
mysterious than the movement Of fish
in water. Their speed. their sudden
leaps from fixed positions, their abrupt
turns in less than their own length,
the extraordinary inertia that enables
then, 70 swim against tremendous
currents-these and hundred and one
otner things have been tie despair OF
every investigator. We know that
such miracles are performed in some
manner by movements Of the fins and
tail. but in n!nety-nina cases out or q

| too small to account for the apparent
power they develop. In less time than
it takes me to tell it three inch gold

does things that are thoroughly I'M
possible. While was in Washington

and at different times have made
some curious observations. especially
as regards their speed. One Of the fish

leap straight for the mark like an ar

mately one-tenth of a second. That
doesn't sound very remarkable in cold
figures. but imagine a steamship jog
ging along at about five knots an
hour, and then, in the twipklipg of an
eye, increasing its speed to a mile a
minute. The feat would be no more
astonishing than that performed by
my little trout, and what makes the
mystery all the greater is the extreme
II delicate and flexible character of
its tail and fins. They seem to offer
no purchase worth mentioning against
the water; 1t is as if an ocean liner
had propeller made Of gauze; yet,
comparatively speaking. they accom-.
