The weight Of evidence from those
who have grown green crops to feed
when the pastures run short and have
had ensilage left over to use in the
summer seems to be in favor Of the
ensilage, says American Cultivator.
There is no crop that will give as much
value in sCcculent fodder as the corn
crop. Nearly every one comedies that to
be true. But the time when a supple
mentary feed is needed because Of the
failure of pastures may vary from May
until October. We can remember Sc
we're droughts and a short supply of
pasture feed in each one Of those six
months and in some years for two or
three months in succession.
The soiling crops, useful as they are,
cannot always be so planned as to give
an abundant supply at all seasons. May
is too early and October too late to look
for a crop of sowed corn, though it may
serve we'll from July until September.
inclusive. But with silo that will hold
perhaps two months supply for sum-
mer use the food is there when needed,
be it early or late in the season. If not
needed, it can be kept almost indefinite
ly We have read of those who said it
was as good after keeping three years.
as the next season after putting in, and
if it will keep three years we see no
reason why it should not be good after
six years.
We do not wish to discourage any
farmer or dairyman from growing
green crops to feed in the summer, but
we wish every one who has Il silo for
winter feeding would also provide an
other that would hold two or three
months supply for use in the summer.
SiIo Too Large.
A correspondent writes as follows to
Hoard's Dairyman: II erected silo
IA feet in diameter by 20 feet high for
about Is head of stock. Now | find
that my silo is rather large for my
present amount of stock to feed two
inches of surface each day. Can with
safety feed from One-half Of the sur
face every other day?"
In answer The Dairyman says: ''It is
advisable in such cases to cover one
half of the silo by means of boards or
tarpa ulin so as to keep the heat in and
prevent holding. IL this is done. there
is no difficulty in feeding from alter

THAT OLD STONE HOUSE.

An old stone house with its mosses gray,
Where l played in childhood. gay and free'
And dreamed many happy hours away
Is to bright, sweet memory.
1t stood near creek whose blithesome song
With dreamy music filled all the air,
As it rolled and danced and gambolled along
Through the meadows with blooming clover tair
II commanded a view more wide and grand
OF orchard and field and wood and stream
Than any farmstead in the land
That borrows naught from boyish dream
And the voices of bees and frogs and birds,
All blending in a strange, glad harmony
With the gentle lowing OF the browsing HERDS,
Thrill me still a lingering melody.
And the faces Of those who made il home,
With smiles of affection tender and true,
cherish most fondly wherever l roam
AS the fairest sight that ever knew.
Oh. that old stone house, messy and gray,
With all that it and enshrined,
Has cheered for me oft lfe's rugged way

August Belmont and six others to be erected
subsequently.

TIE WORLDS WANTS VERSUS ITS NEEDS

The reckless giving away Of large sums Of
money is one Of the most dangerous tendencies of
yesterday in his lecture Spinoza's philosophy
before the womens conference Of the Ethical Cult

The lecturer was talking the great philoso-

last week. and said he thought that Spinoza went
