Warm Quarters Save Food.

During cold weather there can be a
saving of food with the aid of warm
quarters, and repairs should be made
without delay. If the cold winds find
their way into the poultry house there
will be loss of animal heat, and more
food will be consumed Every dollar
expended in making the fowls comfort
able will be two saved during severe
weather. Ventilation should be effect
ed in manner to avoid cold draughts,
especially at night, when the birds are
in state of inactivity. If poultry
house is too warm the birds will suffer
more severely from the outside cold.
The proper temperature is 40 or % de-
grees above zero. If the thermometer
is kept above the freezing point it will be
warm enough. The night time is when
the heat is most needed, and it is then
that the fowls are not exercising. If a
common house lamp is covered with 4
Joint of stovepipe closed at the top with
a perforated lid, so that the draught of
the lamp will not be interfered with, it
will be an excellent radiator of heat.
The greatest precautions must be taken
to keep the fo Wis from knocking over
the lamp. One lamp for every twenty
feet of house will be sufficient. This
arrangement will be appreciated by the
fowls, especially on damp days. If the
house is well ventilated there will be no
danger from draughts, but good ventila-
ton does not mean house filled with
draughts to cause cold. The use of
lamp is a common and very inexpensive
way of keeping the fowls warm.

Value of Silage.

A writer i'm "H0ard's Dairyman"
gives his experience with silage as
against green feeds like sweet corn, oats
and peas, etc, showing a large per cent
of value in favor of the former.
We have fed silage for late summer
and early fall feed for eight years. Lest
we might get out of feed we have often
fed other feeds, oats and peas, sweet
corn, field corn, and silage corn, as we'll
as silage. We have sometimes fed silage
till we began filling, then fed the new
cut corn, but every time we changed
from silage to corn there was loss of
milk. Every time we changed from
corn to silage there was a gain. The
gain or loss was about 20 per cent. l do
not have the least doubt that good Silage
is at least 20 per cent better than green,
fresh corn for milk. You say you can
not explain it. l would offer the follow
ing reason. Corn contains some glucose,
considerable cane sugar and good deal
of starch. In the process of digestion
the starch and cane sugar are changed
into glucose. Glucose consists of II
parts water and II carbon. Cane sugar
IL parts carbon. Thus, the parts carbon
are the same in all, add one part water
to cane sugar, or two parts water to
starch and they are changed to glucose.
This change is effected by the fermenta-
ton of the silage. Silage Is therefore a
food, to that extent that
portion of the starch and
sugar are already converted into glucose
and it is SO much more easily digested-
equal to gain of 90 per cent in feeding
value.

Cattle Ranges Going.

A project for the transplanting of the
great range cattle industry of the Dako-
tas and Montana bodily to some South
American country is now well formed.
The best offers, it is said, have come from
Chilli, relating to some ranges in Pata-
gonia, where conditions are very similar
to those in the Dakotas. Chilli is more
anxious than any other South American
state to encourage American enterprises.
The men who have built up the great
range cattle industry of the west find
their ranges yearly more and more en-
croached upon by the settler, who takes
a small area of land, fences and farms it,
and thus cuts up the ranges. This year
will nearly put an end to range herds on
a large scale. In the western part OF
South Dakota, west of the Missouri,
thousands of miles of land, heretofore
used for ranges, will be homesteaded by
actual settlers. The cattlemen are being
driven out. They have been driven in
20 wears out of the richest lands they
formerly used. There are no new terri
tories for them to enter. They must
quit business or find new continent
that wants them.

NIT, and when put into the silo it ID
much better cut than put in whole. II
should be well packed and trOdden
down around the corners and edges, to
keep well.. A. II. MASON.
PoRTER-The silo has been in use
long enough so that it is no experiment.
would advise all small farmers to put
the silage in whole. 1t keeps just rs
well, is just as nutritious, is just as
handy to feed out, and the herd will eat
it just as clean, and the expense Of put
ting it in is not more than One-half as
much as when it is cut in. l would
recommend sowing the corn quite thick
", so that the fodder will not be too
coarse, then being very careful to pack
it closely in the silO, treading it down
very solid, leaving no space for tho air,
then covering the top with one foot or
more of any dry material. 1t will come
out bright.
My silo is made by taking ono band in
the barn, setting plank by s inches p
feet apart, double boarding inside and
the bottom. 1t has always
kept the ensilage first class and is not
expensive. JOHN SEAVEY.
HARTFoRD-Although apples and
other fruits have blossomed very fully,
in many places they suffered severely
from frost. Grass does not promise 80
per cent of an average crop. Farmers
are making special efforts to plant extra
crops for the silo and fall feeding.
Quite large amount of hay is being
carried over, which will be of great
benefit to the farmers.

as they started upstairs.

whispered Lorry, holding himself tense.
Anguish caught and held him.
"Be calm, sir" cautioned Dangloss.
II may have my views, but I am not
willing to take oath before her royal
highness. Listen: You were heard to
say you would kill him. You began
the fight. You were the aggressor, and
there is no one else on earth, 1t is said,
who could have wished to murder him.

the room through the hall door and
left by the same. There are drops of
blood in the carpet, leading direct to
your door. On your knob are the
prints of bloody fingers where you

opening the door. 1t was this discov-

fully convinced the enraged friends OF
the dead prince that you were guilty.
When we opened the door, you were
gone. Then came the search, the fight

to the prison. The reason I saved you
from that mob should be plain to you.

There was anxiety in Dangloss'
voice, and there was honesty in his
keen old eyes. His charges now saw
the situation clearly and apologized
warmly for the words they had ut
tered under the pressure Of somewhat
eXtenuating circumstances. They ex-
pressed q willingness to remain In the
prison until the excitement abated or
until some one swore his life against
the supposed murderer. They were
virtually prisoners, and they knew 1t
well. Furthermore, they could see that
Baron Dangloss believed Lorry guilty
Of the murder. Protestations Of inno-
cence had been politely received and
politely disregarded.
"Do you expect one Of his friends to

School of Agriculture.

Since the establishment of the Uni
versity of Maine all of its instruction in
Agriculture, with the exception OF the
Short Winter courses, has been OF col
lege/ grade and only open to students
who had completed an equivalent to
high school course. At the June meet
ing of the Trustees il was voted to esta6-
lish a School of Agriculture to which
students who are ready to enter an ad-
yanced grammar grade or high school
are eligible. The course will cover five
terms extending through two years.
The work will be almost exclusively
along lines of practical agriculture.
The instruction will be independent OF
and distinct from that of the College
courses. The school will open at Orono
next October. Tuition will bYfree. A
full statement of the school is being pre-
pared and will be sent on request as soon
MS it is received from the printers. 1t
is hoped that this new departure ut the
University will attract young men and
Young women who intend to follow
practical agriculture as livelihood.
