n Important Agricultural
Ibcovery.
Everybody knows the value ol
recti grass in tatteuius stock aud
increasing the milk of cows. And
most people know that from one to
two-thirds of the substance and nu
trition which the cattle find in their
food comes direct.from the earth. It
is also generally well known that
dried fodder of every description is
much lighter in weight and less in
bulk thau the green stuff, yet it is
ouly within the last two years that
it has occurred to one in this coun
try that if these three facts were put
together, the conclusion would be
reached that about one-half of all
the food qualities of fodder are lost
in the curing of it by the process of
drying, aud that if it were preserved
in a green state it would be twice as
valuable for feeding in the winter
than when dry. This has led to a
further investigation of the fodder
question, and some of our agricul
tural papers have found that in
France there is a perfect system of
preserving green fodder in general
upe, which had been introduced by
the Freuch army on its return from
Mexico iii 1SC7. The Mexicans in
turn acquired this process of treat
ing fodder from the Spaniards, who
had learned it from the Romans.
As practiced by the French the
process is as follows: A cellar with
stone or brick air tight walls is con
structed ol capacity sufficient to hold
as many tons as desired. This is
called a hiIo, and it is filled with
green corn-stalk fodder cut fine by
chopping machines run by horse or
fiteam power. Over the top of the
corn stalks is placed a tight layer of
boards, on which are placed stones,
logs or other heavy weights until the
fodder beneath is pressed into a
compact mass, which being eutirely
preserved from the air remains for
several months in about the same
condition of freshness as when cut,
and id called ensilage. "When open
ed iu the winter for the purpose of
feeding stock, the ensilage is cut out
with a hay knife aud is found to
possess nearly all the eood qualities
of new grass. Dr. John M. Bailey,
of Massachusetts, was the first iu
this country to make any experi
ments with ensilage. In his report
ou the subject he says that he found
that he can raise from forty to seventy-five
tons of sown corn stalk to
the acre, which, when kept in a silo
and fed to stock is the equivalent of
Iroin twenty to thirty-seven aud
one-half tons of the best timothy
hay. He predicts that when silos
aud ensilage feeding comes into
general use "milk can be produced
for one cent per quart, butter lor
ten cents a pound, beef for fourccnt9
per pound, aud mutton for nothing,
if wool beat thirty cents per pound."
"Were Dr. Bailey not indorsed by
the Pres't of the Massachusetts ag
ricultural society aud the bureau of
agriculture at "Washington, we sho'd
not have given so much space to his
wonderful claiui6. As it is, " the
questiou of silos and ensilage is of
the very greatest importantance to

A judicious mother will eo man
age her daughters that even at the
early age of thirteen they can, in an
emergency, prepare "a meal of vic
tuals." A thorough domestic train
ing is very useful to a girl. At
school, she always has a teacher or
a fellow-pupil at baud to help her
over hard places, but if she is set to
make a batch of bread herself, aud
attends to. it from the time the
sponge is set till the loaves are ta
ken, sweet, fragrant, golden-brown,
Irom the oven, she learns meautime
chemistry, caloric, perseverence.del
icntc manipulation, self - reliance,
neatness and acquires skill and the
habit of carrying her work in Tier
mind, as one act of neglect or for
get fulness at any point oflhe proceBs
may spoil the whole. Because some
unwise mothers do not see iu the
stated and skillful performance by
their daughters of household servi
ces a certaiu and valuable culture
which cannot be acquired at school,
they are willing to do themselves
what iu justice and kindness to their
daughters they should require of
them. Hirls, left to their own devi
ces, waste a great deal of time which
might be utilized to their advantage.
A girl who can climb trees, who can
dance hours without fatigue, or
jump rope (a very dangerous pas
time, by the way), who cau take
long walks, who can skate and row
cau also sweep, and scrub and
make bread, and wash, and frou, if
she is encouraged to do eo. These
are the accomplishments she must
possess in .order to make a happy
home, though she may have half a
dozen servants at her call. Those
who havo sufficient curiosity to in
vestigate "this subject will fitfd that
many of the most fatndTus' women in
literature and art were as skillful iu
those accomplishments considered
especially as. they wero with the

them au inestimable blessing.
A Great Invention.
A man living near Bloomfield,
N J , has coutrived au arrangement,
Fays The New York Sun, by the use
of which he is enabled to get an
hour or more of extra eleep iu the
morning, and in other ways he finds
it. of great beucfit. In many ways
it takes the place of a domestic ser
vant. The gentleman has thought
out and put into practical working
au idea that occurred to him about
a year ago. He is awakened in the
morning by a schrill whistle. He
at once gets out of bed, lor he kuown
what that whistle means. It tells
him that all is ready for him to get
breakfast. He dresses and gocB iuto
the kitchen, and there he" finds a
bright, fresh fire, a teakettle full of
boiling water, and other conven
itmces for preparing his morning
meal. All this is accomplished by
means of an alarm-clock with
weights, a piece of wire, a sheet
of sandpaper, and some match
en. Paper, wood, and coal are put
into the grate of his cooking-stove,
and a teakettle filled with water.and
laving a tiny whistle fitted into the
uDzzle of the kettle, is placed on the
stove. By settiug the alarm iu the
clock he can have a lire at any time
he wishes. "Whcu the alarm in the
clock goes off, a weight falls and hits
the wire; the wire moves and
scrapes the matches fastened to it on
the sandpaper; thamalches light the
piper iu the stove, the paper fire
the wood and coal, and soou a fire
h under way. In a little while the
water iu the teakettle boils, and then
the tiny whistle gives the note of
warniiig that everything is ready
and it is timo to get up.
"Simple thing, aud yet what a
comfort it is," the inventor says.
"There is no getting up for me now
an hour before break last. The ar
rangement costs next to nothing,
aud it is as trustworthy as auything
in this world. I have uot had it
patented yet. Some persons advise
me to, and perhaps I may. I haven't
any for sale; got it up entirely for
my own comfort and convenience,
aud it has more than repaid me al
ready. But just think, if it were in
general use. it would save mauy hard
w ords and do away with considera
ble domestic unhappiiiess among
poor people. Doubtless it might
hive a tendency lo make a better
fceliug between some men and their
wives, by settling the vexing ques
tiou as to who should get up in the
morning aud build the fire. Out
of this question alone many divorce
suits grow, aud this arrangement
would prevent them."
Speaking or Pkayeu. A corre
spondent not long since wrote,
asking:
"Why are not my prayers ans
wered ?"
"Wecaunot tell. It is not for us
to know. Perhaps he prayed to a
dead God. One created by creed
.mongers who peddle the product of
some inventor on shares. Perhaps
he prayed for what would not fit
him and would therefore be wasted.
Perhaps he prayed for too many
things at a time. He who at a post
oflice asks for letters for all his
neighbors at once will not be apt to
receive more than one at a time.
He who calls for a thousand men iu
a crowd, generally calls in vain. He
who prays for more thau one thing
at a time does not know his wants
nor how to pray properly. Jesus,
the son of Siracb, aud grandchild of
Jesus of the same name with him,
was like Solomon, a man of won
drous wisdom kuowu aud spoken of
as Ecclesiastics, aaye, " Make not
much babbling when thou prayest."
To-night we pray. Not to escape
hell, for we have no fear of it. Not
for loug life, for that is to pray for
more weariness. Not for riches, be
cause we do not need them. Not
for the praise of men, because this is
not necessary. But we pray that we
may be useful to our fellow men.

Science is daily proving to us
what a horrible world we live in.
Our clothing is disease-breeding,
our colored socks are poisonous, our
bats produce headaches, neuralgia
and baldness, the water we drink is
tainted, the soap we use produces a
thousaud ills, the air we breathe
sends death pulsing through our
veins, aud now a paper has proven
to our entire satisfaction that the
food we eat is adulterated, that we
are in daily dauger of taking in
sickness with our sugar and death
with our bread. Yet if we subscribe
to no scientific papers, but go quiet
ly on our way, eating what we
pleaRe, drinking what we can get,
wearing what we have, and sleeping
where we may, we will probably
never have any qualms of the stom
ach, and live as long and be as
happy as the most scientific of
scientists.
"A kiss," said young Charles, "is

Comfort ibr Old Maid.
Old maids are useful. They can
cook, sew and take care of the chil
dren and nurse sick people, aud
generally play the piauo. Old bach
elors are useless. They do not even
know how to drive nails or split
wood.
Old maids are amiable. If one
wauts auything done that requires
patience aud kindness of heart, a
single lady is sure to be the one to
do it.
Old bachelors are ill-natured
They snub children, despise babies
and lmte young mothers, aud are
always so busily employed iu seeing
that other people tako care of them
that they have not a moment to give
to any one else.
Old maids are nice looking, and
"young lor their years." Old bach
elors generally have red uoses,
rheumatism in the knees, bald heads
and mouths that turn down at the
corners.
Old maids can make a home of
one little room, and they ctok deli
cious meals for one over the gas jet,
iu cunning little tiu kettles, besides
making all their own wardrobes.
Old bachelors need an army of
tailors, waiters, cooks and distant
relatives to keep them comfortable.
When old maids aroill they tie up
their heads in pocket handkerchiefs,
take homeopathic pellets out of two
bottles alternately, and get well
again. When old bachelors are ill
they go to bed anil soud for four
doctors; have a consultation, a man
tlepiece full of black bottles, all the
amiable married men who belong to
the club to sit up with them at night,
besides a hired nurse; they tele
graph to their relations, and do their
host to persuade the world that they
are dying.
When an old maid travels she
takes a sandwich, a piece of pound
cake and a bottle of lemonade in a
basket, aud lunches comfortably in
the carriage. When an old bachelor
travels he orders a meal in courses
at the slution, and raves because he
has no time to eat it before the "fif
teen minutes for refreshments" has
expired.
Old maids drink weak tea, and it
cures their headaches.
Old bachelors drink strong liquor,
aud it gives them headaches.
Old maids are modest. They think
their youth is over aud their beauty
goue. If after a while some autum
nal love is :iven them they take it
as a sort of miracle, and hope people
will not laugh at them for "marry
ing so late in life."
A llulut of Complaint.
There are some unhappy people
who are never .cheerful who are
always under a cloud. Now we
may be born with a melancholy
temperament, but that is no reason
why we should yield to it. There is
a way of shuffling tho burden. In
the lottery of life there are more
prizes drawn- than blanks, and to
one misfortune there are fifty ad
vantages. Despondency is the most
unprofitable feeling a man can hnve.
One good, hearty laugh is a bomb
shell exploding in the right place,
while spleen aud discontent are a
gun that kicks over the man who
shoots it oil'. Then give over com
plaining. Take outdoor exercise
aud avoid late suppers if you would
have a cheerful disposition. The
habit of'complaint finally drops into
peevishness, aiid people become
waspish and unapproachable.
Xo Time.
"I have no time to devote to my
children," says the business man,
with a sigh ; for he really feels the
privation of their society keenly.
But the excuse is au insufficient one ;
he shduld make time let other du
ties go, for no duty is more im
portant! ban that he owes his off
spring. Parents should never fail
to jrive the child such sympathy iu
its little matters of life as will pro
duce in its confiding mind that trust
and faith which is a necessary ele
ment in paternal iufluence. Filial
afl'ectiou is a great safe-guard against
evil influences, as well as a great
civilizer to its possessor. Do uot
forget, too, that the childish mind,
iu process of developemeut, abso
lutely needs the cheerful aud happy
influences which are produced by
amusements, as sure as the plant
needs sun and light for its proper
growth.
Probably more horses are lost by
colic thau all other diseases com
bined, and one chief trouble in treat
ing the disease is that many of the
so-called remedies are either absurd
or the ingredients are not available.
A few weeks since we had a horse
taken violeutly with flatulent colic,
aud I started for a "horse doctor" a
mile distant. O-i my way I recol
lected having read in the Michigau
Farmer, I think it was, of applying
blankets wruug out of hot water,
and I wished I had tried it before
starling. My wife it seems, hid
read the same- article, aud alter I
had gone went to work in good
"woman" earnest and applied the
hot blankets, and when I returned
in about half an hour she cameto
the door laughing, saying: "Your
horse is all right now," and snre
enough he was walkiug around the
yard entirely relieved.
A dressmaker got mad because
her lover serenaded her with a flute.

A writer in tho Liucolu Journal
discusses the U. S. Senatorial ques
tion at considerable length. Iu
closiug he says:
"If a mau serves the public in as
prominent a capacity as that of U
S. Senator for six years, and even
his adversaries dare not charge him
with anything wrong, it is pretty
strong evidence that his course has
been about right; aud if he has been
right for six years it i pretty good
evidence that he will continue iu
the right for six more, and we have
but very few, if auy chances to run
iu such a mau."

case exactly, and the Express is con
fident that there will be enough good
sense iu the forthcoming Legislature
to take tho same view aud give him
another term. No charges of any
kind are made against Mr. Paddock.

faithfuluess to State interests, and
nearly every person acknowledge

for six more if re-elected, something
concerning which this paper has not
the least doubt. The people there

A Beautiful Thought. When
the summer of youth is slowly wast
ing away on tho nightfall of age,
and the shadow of the path becomes
deeper and life wears to a close, it is
pleasant to look through the vista of
time upon the sorrows and felicities
of our early years. If we have had
a home to shelter and hearts to re
joice with us, and friends havo been
gathered around our fire-Bide, the
rough places of way-faring will have
been worn aud smoothed away in
tho twilight of life, and mauy dark
spots we have passed through will
grow brighter aud more beautiful.
Happy iudeed, are those whose in
tercourse with the world has not
changed the tone of their feeling, or
broken those musical chords of the
heart whose vibrations are so melo
dious, so tender and so touching in
the evening of life.
Think with Method. Under all
the circumstances iu which you may
be placed, tryiug or otherwise, thiuk
as steadily aud clearly as your ca
pacity will allow you to do ; compel
your thought to bring you to Borne
sort of conclusion, and then carry
out the conclusion without consult
ing any human being. Clear thought,
continuous thought and silence all
exercised on the daily trifles of life
these habits, which are none of
them difficult, will so harden the
mind as in a very short period to
make it incapable of indecision.
"Little baby is very ill, Charlie ; I
am afraid he will die." "Well, if he
does die, mamma, he won't go to the

to gnash."
"I say, Clem," cried two disputing
