Lust week a Mitch II county, Kansas, man found livo head of his :ow8 floundering around and two of them died. They had been rating green Kalllr corn. Ihey got but a few leaves but it was enough to do tho work. Frost takes all tho poisou out of tho leaves and makes good fodder. You can tell a successful farmer by looking at his wife's fruit cans in the closet. You can toll tho curbstone pol itician by tho patches on his pants. You cau tell tho poison serpent by tho bluntness of his tail, You can tell tho slouehy woman by her shoo buttons and her hat. But tho easiost of all yon can point out tho enterprising mer chant of a town by glancing at his homo newspaper. This is not divine rovelation, but it is business, gospel and truth. Bancroft Blade. Tho valuo and cost of fodder as a feed for stock during the winter do (founds largely on tho stngo at which it is out, tho curing and tho manner of Muring. If allowed to get too ripo and then U put up in rather small shocks and allowed to. stand out In all kinds of woilhcr until wanted for feed, it questionable if the feed secured will pay tho cost of cutting and hauling But if cut in good season, properly handled during the curing out, and is properly stored away, it makesa cheap whohMorne feed for all kinds of atocik. , THE AHOUND TOWN.

Editok Chief As I thought you would like to hear somo news from this part'of tho world I will writo you f a fow lines to let you know how tho Rod Cloud boys aro getting nlong. Thoy aro all well at present. Somo of tho boys have been quito sick and ono died from our regiment, but as a rule thcyaro much healthier than the south ern boys. Wo bad a grand revinw Wednesdnj that was protly hard on tho boys. Wo had to march about seven miles through the sand and hot sun to Jacksonville . There woro about thirty thousand in the pnrndo, tho rough riders in the load followed by tho infantry. It took thorn ovor two hours to march through town. Somo of tho boys gave out and woro plcksd up by tho nmbulanco wagons which followed. It was n grand sight for tho onlookers, but not very nice for tho boys. There will bo another review on tho 15th nt which President McKinloy nnd Secretary Alger will bo present. Somo of tho boys aro anxious to get homo, nnd others are anxious to go to Cubu. As for myself I am will ing to go whoro thoy want to send mo, but any tlmo thej' want to turn mo looso I won't kick, just so thoy don't turn mo loose down hero. They say this is tho finest plnco in Florida. If h is I am not stuck on tho rest of it. Wo h ivo our camp in good order. Tho general inspector said wo had tho cleanest camp in the seventh army corps. Wo havo a Y. M. C. A. tent which furnishes writing material for tho soldiers when thoy go broke, and lh't is not long after pay day. Wo havo everything that a soldier needs. The water is not the best. It is sulphur and not very tool but it is better than I expected. Our guard house gener ally has four or fivooccupnnts, but that is tho caso wherever you go. Somo times there is as high as flftcon in at n timo after pay day. I havo not been there yet but that was not my fault. I will close hoping these few lines will interest como of tho readers of your paper I lemain Yours Respectfully, ClIAIII.KS COOKIIAI.1..
