Winter Money From the Dairy

To keep iip flow of milk throup, winter. so far as feed is eoncernal there is nothing to take the place of ensilase say here that if a man mflk5 fen COWS he should have Q sl, 10 hold sufficient to admit of feeding thirty to forty pounds of good silage daily to each COW.
 In case ono must depend upon cot. tenseed halls mainly for bulk feed would advise the use of al least ren pounds oi hay daily 10 each COW. Feos the hay even if it must be bought at $l1 to SIS per ton. Cows will keep in eetser condition and more milk will be got.

These fiqures are .v., rou.

These figures are even now exs., by many of our young, thrifty far~ CTS. While at tho Macon farm we mo. Mir. J. II. Butler. of Brodieys. Ga .'ne made this year 50 bales of cotton rao bushels of corn and 300 bushels of ns tatoes with four blows. This evcoes- our estimate 50 ner cent. We have se'' our figures where ninety out of eyerv hundred men can attain, who will on,,. make an honest effort to follow o
 directions. Now, this much we w;s, to impress upon our readers tbi, grain-sowipg and system of ro,s,ie@ is essential to good farming. Rota.ioa is essential both to prevent disease among our crops and to keep our .o,, supplied with vegetable matter. M. heard of a man over at Social Ciro,. Ga, that voiced our sentiments Q, actly upon this point. By fol,ow;n. this system of rotation he had brough, hls So-acre Farm up to where it woula all make bale of cotton Der acr. When cotton went up to 15 cents hi. neighbors advised him 10 plant b,, whole place in sotton, make 80 haio. and get pile of money at once. Bn, he replied, No. Not if cotton goes to 20 cents will I deviate from my rule Such man is hot only a good farmer, but he has the right kind n, clements of manhood in him. and ,bio IS what we most heed and want Wa are satisfied that the plan We bava mapped out is wise Our own and all the experience of mankind prove tbat diVersiiieatton, rotation, good prepara- ton and rapid cultivation marks ina most successful and highest class Of Administration Cultiyator.

 .Ralph's going to run away" cried his sister Amy. "Oh, goody. Now I can have all the cup custards."
 Amy is really glad I'm going" thought Ralph, slamming the gate. and nobody seems to care much. !" Running away did not seem such a grand frolic after all
 Just at dusk, a tired little fellow crept softly through the hedge of lilacs, around the grapevine to the piazza, and made wild rush for mothers arms.
 Il couldn't find a good place to sleep, mother" he sobbed. There wasn't any fun; folks were cross that lived where there were lawn swings and croquet balls, and nobody wanted me at all. IN there's cross dogs and plieemen and everythingi I'll bring in wood and run errands all day to- morrow, mother. Amy can have the cup custards if she wants 'em. but please, grandmother, I'd like another doughnut. The Sunbeam.

I must get mp if I'm ever so sleepy, comb my hair, and bother with shoe strings and neckties that are most sure to get into knots. It's just the same all day; if grandfather doesn't ask me to do an errand, mother is sure to want the chickens fed, or basket Of apples, or some wood. or some thing' I'll go where a boy can have little fun, and guess every one will miss me"
 So, filling his pockets with ginger cookies and some doughnuts that grandmother was frying. he said: "Good-by, grandmother; Im going away to find a real jolly place. I'm tired of living on stupid old farm
 "Goodby, dearie,' smiled grand. mother. Come back 10 Thanksgiy- ing dinner and eat some of my pump- kin pie and turkey.
 Why yee! thought Ralph: grand. mother doesn't care at all, but l guess my mother will he sorry that she made me work so hard"
 Mother looked surprised when the eager little boy told his story.

There are places in every city where the narrow strip iron can be had in two or three widths, but if it cannot be had at a hardware store the strips can be cut any width from a sheet of iron or tin with a pair of tin shears. Where the scrolls touch each other the union is to be made with copper wire bound round and the ends twist ed together, as shown in Fig l.
