Many Old Mansions Shown.

Many of the old mansions which were
built in the early days of the city. some
of them still standing, also were
shown.
Mr.. Fishback never lost a chance to
point out the beautiful trees which
Washington is so fortunate in having
and a number of slides were of the
trees in the streets in various parts OF
the city. A person, he said, does not
have to go to the outskirts of the city
to see beautiful trees, for right in
the Capitol grounds are many fine
trees which cannot be seen anywhere
else in the city.
The pictures were pronounced as the
best that had ever been shown before
the society, and Mr.. Fishback was
given a rising vote of thanks for show :
ing them to the society.

Staff of Seventy-Five Men.

Under Supt. Woods at the Capitol is
a regular staff of close TO seventy-f1ve
men, who form a nucleus to which is
added extra assistance as need arises.
There is maintained in the subter-
ranean passages under the big white
building an extensive store of the
various supplies required from day to
day to keep the Capitol in shape. Elec-
trical and plumbing supplies, great
quantities of paints and hardware are
always at hand, ready to meet the
ordinary and extraordinary demands
upon Uncle Sans most efficient house
keeper. Supt. Woods. Even a supply
of nuts for the squirrels on the grounds
is kept constantly or hand.
The time which has been at the dis
posal of the superintendent staff dur
ing the recess now coming to a close
has been limited. and it was yesterday
explained at his office that only a
little" had been done, the greater bulk
of the work being left over TO the
longer period of inactivity in the legis-
lative halls which is due TO arrive
March 4. But persistent inquiries as
to the exact nature of this little"
brought forth the following facts as
to the work which has been accom-
plished since Congress adjourned last

In the course of his talk Mr.. Fish

while the government had many beau

still rented unsuita BILE buildings to

1T DOES NOT PAY TO PULL FoD-
DER


There, in a sentence, is the rea.
son why the practice of fodder.
pulling should be discontinued
IL does not pay. Every expert
ment yet conducted to determine
the merits of the practice has Civ
en- the same result. II is not a
matter longer open for discussion
The man who pulls fodder either
lacks information or believes that
what is true of other cornflelds is
not true of his.
Whenever you pull fodder you
decrease the yield of corn. Some
folks pull early enough to cut down
the yield seventh or sixth,
The men who wait until very late
may not reduce the yield Of corn
more than one-twentieth. The
fodder is then worth less, of course.
There is no escaping the fact that
all the feed saved by pulling fodder
is lost in the decreased value of
corn.
The feeding value of the corn
stalks and blades is too great to be
lost. Much of il can be utilized
at small expense even by the far
mer without machinery for cItting
it up. BY cutting and shocking the
corn the roughage can be fed, out
doors if necessary, and a much
larger part of it converted into feed
than when the fodder alone is
pulled off. The man with a silo or
a power feed cutter can, of course,
utilize his cornstalks more fully,
but there is scarcely a farmer in all
this section who cannot make more
money by cutting and shocking his
corn after it has fully matured than
by any method of "foddering"
OF course, if any reader is deter
mined to pull fodder anyway, that
is his privilege; but all the time he
is doing it he should be saying to
himself, This is mighty fine work,
but | am losing money by doing it.
