Ensilage Feeding.
Dr. W. B. Martin, Chautauqua county,
N. Y., contributes a Tery sensibly written
article on ensilage to the Country Gentleman, from which we make extracts following: "I digged my pit some Beven feet
deep at one end and five feet at the other.
I laid my wall in water-lime Irom 14 to 16
inches thick. When completed I had a
vault 12 by 28 feet, and 12 feet high, witb a
door in one end next to the barn. I filled
my alio with fodder corn and field corn
(cut in half-inch lengths and less), miilot,
clover,   pigeon  grass,   etc.    The   severe
dltion when the tiio was opened, 83 when
I taken from the field. The kernels were,
fall of milk and it had no sour taste; in
fact it was as sweet as when cut, and I
found a part of the fodder without any perceptible scld taste, and do not believe that
the food is aold enough to cause any injury
to the teeth. The German settlers on the
Mohawk, and in fact the Qeiman settlers
generally, use sauer kraut very freely and
are blessed with remarkably good teeth."

walls, and shall follow
example of Mr. Jone.", of Maine, by putting a wooden one into my bay 10 by 30
feet, and shall ensilage my feed, including
clover, timothy, millet and rye. I shall
not cut the small fodder with cutting machine, for two reasons; one is that the extra labor of .settling evenly can be accomplished by taking pains in putting in, and
the other reason is the danger from stones
raked ln with the fodder. When ready for
use a sharp hay knife will put it in shape
to use with very little trouble. The coarse
fodder should be cut fine, and I am satisfied that it is as well to fill the alio slowly
as to be in a hurry about it; that is, twenty
to thirty Inches in  depth a day  is best.
"My silo cost $80, and I can build another
by the side of itforf60; but shall put one ln
the barn, made' of wood, of more than
double capacity, for less than {100. It
seems to me that almost any farmer can
try it on a small scale if he has the will to
do it, as I trust all will in time.
"The statement by several writers In your
paper that bo large a per cent, of the ensilage ls water, and of course has no life-giving or life-sustaining qualities sounds well
to those who like it, and some of them seem
to remarkably well. Is the Jules of a plant
simply water, or ls it something more?
Let any reasoning person pass a hay field
where the hay la drying fast on a hot summer's day, and he must oome to the conclusion that something beside water is' being carried off from the newly cut grass.
Job said of our bodies, "The blood is the
life." So with plants; the juice is the
blood, and holds in solution the finer' and
more valuable elements of plant life, and
in that state are ln the best possible condition to become assimilated in the
animal economy. In proof we find
that in preparing fluid extracts and ti c-
tures for medical use, many remedies lose
their medical properties by drying, and are
entirely Inert—and yet our friends Insist
that they have lost nothing but the water.
Per contra the remedies having the most
petenoy are prepared from the green rcots
and plants, and when the plants are full of
sap oc blood.
"Oar opponents will admit that they can
make the largest quantity and finest quality of butter at the time when the grass has
the largest amount of water ln it. Now if
we ca* by any means preserve this condition, or oome very near to it, we have
solved the problem ot profitable farming,
and especially dairying. I believe that this
can be accomplished by cutting tke pro-
duets of our farms when they are at the
highest stage of development, putting them
ln a tight can (silo,) and preserving them
as the prudent housewife does her fruits
and vegetables. I believe this can be done
so suosessfully that, with warm barns,
stock can be fattened as rapidly in winter
as ln summer.   In my own  experience, I
cutaneous papilla) from which it grows, and
receiving less of the oily secretion ' (yolk)
from the setecaous glands, withers, hardens, loses its normal electricity, and is liable ti become matted into dense and inextricable masses while still on the back of
the sheep.
If there is a scab or any skin eruption
which imparts the natural nourishment of
the wool, the condition is likely to be aggravated, and the matting is even more
dense and solid, because the wool Is imprisoned by the hardening of the diseased
exudation around the filaments. By care
to keep the health good, and to keep tke
sheep constantly thriving, the wool will
retain such an unctuous covering and such
lite and elasticity that cotting will be virtually Impossible. The avoidance of cot-
ting, therefore, implies the avoidance of all
causes of ill health or poverty, whether
found in poor shelter, confinement, bad
air, poor or innutritions focd, lack of
water, worms in lungs, bowels or elsewhere, scrofula and other constitutional
ailments, er scab or other diseases of the
skin.
When the wool ls already ootted it will
usually be found impossible to restore it;
and the object should be so to Improve the
condition of the system and skin a* to Insure that the future growth of this and succeeding seasons shall be natural and
strong. This course has the double advantage that it not only seeures better wool,
but a heavier clip, and gives at the same
time stamina and vigor to the flock.—Can-

A Fine Stook Farm.
Editors Indiana Farmer.
I have just visited the Valley Stook Farm,
of O. W. Tuell, six miles southeast of Val-
lonla, Jackson oounty, Ind., which consists
of 440 acres of rather level clay land, well
watered with never failing springs. Ho
has 300 acres cleared, 160 of which ia well
set to grass for pasture and mewing. The
b3rns are elegant, large and well arranged,
one f#r horses 60 by 60 exclusive of shedding, and one for cattle, of which he is the
possessor o' a fine herd of Short-horns, 60
by 60. His dwelling-house is one of the
best farm-houses in the oounty. At tke
head of his herd of Short-horns stands
Clyde of the Manor, with a registered pedigree running back through the most noted
fimllies ofthe breed. He has some yearling bulls of clear cherry red color, which
are especially fine. He is also a breeder of
Poland China hogs aud Cotswold sheep.
Ht> has some young hogs that will compare well with the most perfect type of the
breed, and worthy a place In the pens of
the most noted breeders of the State. His
flack of sheep consists of 90 breeding ewes
and a few choioe bucks, and a* the^head of
the flook stands a pedigreed back, whose
veins run with the best blood of the  Im-
found many ears of oorn in the same con- ported Cotswold.   His yearling bucks are
not handy. Parched corn is also a substitute for charcoal to a certain extent. , By
keeping charcoal near them, and also a pan
of wood ashes, they will keep in much better health than without, and as the oost of
these things are very' litttle they should
not be overlooked. Ho^s are very voracious, and our own knowledge of that fact
is sufficient to allow us to reason that an
animal that gorges, as does the hog, needs
some corrective to the stomach, which nature teaches him to use In the shape of
charcoal.

A New Oattle Plague.
A singular disease, hitherto unknown,
or at least undescribed, and to which , the
veterinarians have not yet given a name,
is reported to have broken out among the
cattle ln Watertown, N. Y. The stock attacked are blooded animals, and are in the
very best oonditlon. Saveral have died.
They are taken first with intense coughing,
followed by loss of appetite and shrinkage
of milk. When let out where they can
bave perfect freedom, they appear almost
crazy, and will bite themselves, tearing out
chunks of flash, and appear in the greate t
agony. The attention of the State authorities has been called to the matter.   • ■

Skin Disease.
Editors Indian a. Farmer:
My horse has a spot on both hips, extending to the flanks, on which the hair i»
of a deadly color and the skin hot and
scaly, with a thin fluid discharge. The-
same appeared two or three years ago, but
not so large and painful. It disappears in
winter, but returns in the spring*, increasing in size and fury till it leaves a baro
scab a foot square. What is the ailment,
and what the curt? o, j., V.
Youri horse has scaling off of the

all over him. Blister the parts with Spanish fly, one ounce, and spiritB of turpentine one pint. Hub in with the hand one©

will take it ofl? I- notice several other
smaller warts growing about the larc©

Look-jaw.
Editor* Indiana Farmer:
I have lost three horses and a mulo
the past winter. The mule when first taken
had his eyes drawn up unnaturally, head
and ears cold and stiff, and tail constantly
in motion—seemed stiff all over. Cut the
cords in his nose, ears, apes and tail, or
had it done, and tsok a gallon of bleod
from him. Was that right? The mule had
his Jaws locked five dajs and died. I have*
other mules and horses all in good condition, tut when exercised they seem In
great misery, will roll and tumble awhile
and get up and seem all right. Others
acted the same way at first but finally died.
What shall be done? T. B. S.
Your mule died of tetanus, lock-jaw, that
is quite evident. You intensified the disease by your cutting. If one pretending to
be a veterinary done it, he should go some
where and study. It was the most barbarous treatment I ever heard of. No man
can tell the disease your horses died of from
the symptons you give unless seeing them,
or giving full symptoms.

A Coquillard's Wagon and Carriage Works, South Bend, Ind.
There is a striking illustration in South
Bond, of what may be accomplished by beginning at the foot of the commercial ladder and working up. We refer to the extensive wagon and carriage works of A.Coquil-
lard, E-sq. The proprietor began operations
upon a small scale some fifteen years ago,
and one has only to look through the several spacious and thoroughly equipped,
buildings that constitute his factory to
understand what rapid progress he has)
made. The product of his works include
the celebrated Ccqulllard wagons,carriages,
buggies, sleighs, etc. All of these wares
being strictly flrst-class and guaranteed as
Buch. The Coqulllard wagon is made both
heavy and light, with and without springs
and for all purposes where a wagon is required. It ls made of carefully selected
and thoroughly seasoned timber, well
Ironed, and Is a marvel of durability combined with low coat. As to carriages, buggies, and sleighs they are produced in
many different styles, the materials aiyi
workmanship in all cases being the very
best. Several years ajo Mr. Coqulllard
purchased heavily of tke finest timber
lands ln this oountry. Thus while other
manufacturers are collecting their timber
from points more or less remote and that
varies greatly ln quality, he Is able to procure supplies averaging tbe very highest:
from hia own lands hard by. Manufacturing them under such peculiar and special
advantages, it is not surprising the products of the works are in snob demand all
