any other man was i'll, he was the kind
est nurse in the world; and he knew
more than half the surgeons do. Then
if anybody was sick or died, or if the
captain wanted him to on any other
occasion, he was always ready to read
prayers. l have remarked that he
read beautifully.
My own acquaintance with Philip
Nolan began six or eight years after
the war, on my first voyage after I
was appointed a midshipman. 1t was
In the first days after our slave trade
treaty, while the reigning house,
which was still the house of Virginia,
had still a sort of sentimentalism
about the suppression of the horrors
of the middle passage, and something
was sometimes done that way. We
were in the South Atlantic on that
business. From the time I joined, I
believe l thought Nolan was a sort Of
lay chaplain-a chaplain with a blue
coat. I never asked about him. Ev-
erything in the ship was strange to
me. knew it was green to ask ques-
tons, and | suppose l thought there
was q "Plain-Buttons" on every ship.
We had him to dine in our mess once
q week, and the caution was given that
on that day nothing was to be said
about home. But if they had told US
not to say anything about the planet
Mars or the book of Deuteronomy, l
should not have asked why; there were
a great many things which seemed to
me to have as little reason. l first
came to understand anything about

when we Overhauled a dirty little
schooner which had slaves on board.
An officer was sent to take charge Of
her, and after a few minutes he sent
back his boat to ask that someone
might be sent him who could speak
Portuguese We were all looking over
the rail when the message came, and
we all wished we could interpret, when
the captain asked who spoke Por-
/ tuguese. But none of the officers did
and Just as the captain was sending
/ forward to ask if any of the people
could, Nolan stepped out and said he
should be glad to interpret, if the cap

/ guage. The captain thanked him, fit
/ ted out another boat with him, and in
this boat it was my luck to 20.
When we got there, it was such a
scene us you seldom see, and never
/ want to. Nastiness beyond account,
and chaos run loose in the midst Of the
nastiness. There We're not a great

of making what there We're understand
that they were free, Vaughan had had
their handouts and anklecuffs knocked
off, and, for convenience sake, was
putting them upon the rascals of the
schooners crew. The negroes were,
most Of them, out of the hold, and
swarming all round the dirty deck,
with a central throng surrounding

WILL PLANT CORN
To FILL S|LOS
MARYLAND DAIRYMEN CONSIDER
SILAGE MOST ECONOMICAL
FEED.
MAKES MORE MILK
Farmers Are Urged To Plant More
Corn and Build SlIos.

College Park, May 17.-Members Of
the State Dairymens Association are
urging on Maryland consumers the
fact that the wider use of dairy prod
ucts will insure a healthier and
cheaper fed people. In connection
with this campaign for the greater
consumption of dairy products they
are also seeking in every way possible
to keep down the cost of production.
With feed at $50 a ton they realize
the great need for producing more
silage and forage crops. The planting
OF larger acreages of corn for silage
purposes is especially recommended.
G. (. Wolcott, dairy specialist for the
Maryland Agricultural Extension Serv-
ice, states that any farmer keeping az
many as ten cows should build a silo
to enable him to feed his herd econom,
ically. At the present time it is most
important that the farmer who has in
mind the building of a silo, should
plow and prepare additional land for
corn so that he will have an ample
supply for silage purposes. Any sur
plus that has to be harvested as field
corn should bring ample returns at
present prices.
According to Mr.. Wolcott, to tons
of silage can be proftably fed per COW
year. The yield of silage varies
from 4 to 20 tons to the acre, land
yielding so bushels per acre making
about 10 tons to silage. Corn in the
form Of silage will produce more milk
than the same amount shocked and
dried. There is also considerable less
waste in feeding silage than in feed
ing fodder. Where properly fed, silage
is entirely consumed by the COW and
aids as well in keeping the digestion
in good shape. On account of the
smaller cost of handling silage as COM
pared to soiling crops it can be used
TO advantage in supplementing pasture
land as well as providing a succulent
feed in winter. Using corn as silage
makes it possible to clear the land
much quicker than If the corn were
cut and shocked, thus preparing the
land for wheat or some other money
crop early in the fall,
Corn grown for silage is usually
drilled, which permits of closer plant
ing. The ground should be narrowed
as soon as the spring drying begins
on winter plowed land or as soon as
spring blowing is done to prevent loss
of moisture. This narrowing will also
prevent the forming of clods. The
grower must use h own judgment as
to how much further narrowing or
rolling he should do, bearing in mind
that his yield depends largely on hav-
ing Arm, moist seed bed with one or
two inches of loose soil to cover the
seed and prevent further evaporation
Cultivation must be frequent enough
TO maintain a dust mulch and keep the
woods out Of the corn as they will in
jure the quality of silage if allowed to
make any growth.
Farmers growing corn for silage
should consult their County Demon
stratiOn Agent regarding the cost and
type of silo suited to their conditions.

Reasons Why You Should Patronize
this Horse.
He is an extra good individual and
represents the most popular breed in
the country today. His pedigree repre-
sents the best blood of his breed His
quality is unsurpassed and he has the
best disposition of any stallion in the
country. He transmits this disposition
TO his colts. He is a tried horse and a
sure foal getter. His colts are easy to
sell and bring good prices; they have
high life, plenty of vim. but are easy to
handle. He will stay here and give you
a chance to breed to him again.
We will exercise.the greatest care in
handling mares, but will not be respon-
sible for accidents.

SOY BEANS A VALUABLE FEED.

College Park, May 17,--In view of
the high prices of feed for cattle,
Maryland farmers are becoming daily
more anxious to ind substitutes that
can be grown on their own land. As
a result County Demonstration Agents
find demonstrations in growing alfalfa
and soy beans very popular in counties
where any quantity of live stock is be-
ing grown. Seed for trial fields or
acres of soy beans can be obtained at
cost from the Maryland Agricultural
Extension Service through County
Demonstration Agents as long as the
supply reserved at the beginning Of
the war lasts. Soy beans have been
thoroughly tested out at the State Ex-
pertinent Station and in demonstration
fields in nearly every county in the
State. AS result, Nicholas Schmitz,
formerly of the Maryland Experiment
Station, says:
"Soy beans are well adapted to
Maryland, and, like corn, thrive best
on rich loan soils. It is, however, on
soils too poor to grow corn profitably
that soy beans will bring the greatest
net profit. On such soils, when in
oculated and fortified with little in
expensive fertilizer, they will produce
nearly as much forage and seed as
when grown on rich land. They will
not grow as well as COW peas on poor,
sandy soils, but far better than COW
peas on stiff, clay soils. They will
stand poor drainage better than either
COW peas or corn.
Soy beans mature in from 70 to $50
days, making 1t possible to select vari-
cites to fit any length of growing sea-
son found in Maryland.
Time To Plant.
"Soy beans may be planted from any
time after corn planting is finished
until July 18th, depending upon vari-
ETY., location, and for the purpose
planted. For hay and seed it Is best
to plant the fore part of June, to In
sure good curing weather for the hay
and time for late varieties to mature
seed before frost. For fall hog pas
ture, and for turning down as a green
manure, they may be planted up until
July 18th II an early variety is used.
