SHREDDING CORN. Farmers have been so long accu toraed to pulling fodder that it is di ficult to 8top doing so. Hence we bi gin in time this year to call attentic to this subject. Fodder has been pul ed to save for dry food for horse Many think they must continue to pu for this purpose. They think thi without fodder they would not kno how to feed. They do not know c remember that a vast majority of hors< and mules never saw fodder. Thi none ever saw it until a few years ag comparatively. The corn from wbic we pull fodder was not known to tb farming world until a recent period. Even now its cultivation is confine to a small area. And a very sraa part of those who grow corn ever pu fnHHor Thin ia confined a most entirely to a few southern statei Horses do as well with hay fc roughage as with fodder. There is no use pulling fodder sin ply to get roughage for horses an mules. There are so many hay grassc that make this kind of food cheaper. There is no necessity to pull foddei Neither is it a saving business. Hab has taught us to believe that we mus pull the fodder to save it. That w would lose something if we did n( pull the fodder. This is a mistake fc several reasons. In fact it is a loss t pull fodder. The blades are so necessary to th life of the corn that it makes the eai lighter to pull them off for fodder. A growing processes stop at once whe the leaves are stripped from the stalk The grains are never full while th blades are green. Fodder is always pulled before th blades are all dead. The loss of weigt is always about equal to the weigl of the fodder. It is much greatt when the fodder is pulled a little gree as is very often done. Here there is positive loss in value. The cost < pulling and saving the fodder must t added to this loss. Fodder costs moi than it is worth. First it costs abot 75 cents to save a hundred pounds ( fodder, and the damage to the corn i about the same ; often fully $1. So we see each 100 pounds of foddt costs about $1.50. We see then that a farmer who pul fodder is actually injuring himsel Throwing away money. But many will say we must bav roughage for our stock. What shall w do about it? Well you cannot onl 3top losing, but you can save mone ana at me same time nave muie iuu^ food. How can we do that? Simpl cut down the whole stalk. Do tbi about ten days later than you woul pull the fodder and you will save a the fodder and have full weight corr and have a great deal more to fee with. The stalk and the shuck an the sheath of the fodder blades tba you do not get, are all just as good a the fodder. Cut the whole stalk an shuck it so that it will stand firm unt it dries thoroughly. This will tak from four to six weeks. Then yo can haul it to the barn and stack c shred it. The shredder is a machine the tears the stalk to pieces and mixes i with the blades aud shucks so as t make an excellent hay. Experiment have proved that this whole stalk ha is an excellent food. All stock eati freely and thrive upon it. The part of the cornstalk below th ear is richer iu food value than th top. The bard casing of silex, whic gives strength to the stalk, is very ur pleasant to stock. It is often so sbar as to cut the gums. The shredder d< Btroys this, and the cattle eat it freel in this ground condition. The shrec der will, at the same time, take off th ear, either shucked or slip sbucket If desired it will shell and sack tb corn. Nothing is lost, the entire stalk i made into food. Thus you have mot than double the roughness. The stal is worth about the same as the eg crop. Why then should it be lost? Again, pea vines, oat straw, whet straw, and any other hay materii may be run through the shredder wit the cornstalks or separate. This is great item of saving to many farmer Oat and wheat straw are about as goo as fodder for stock. But when fe whole or partly cut there is a ver large waste. Run through the shrec der all is saved. Very many would like to use tb shredder ; but as they are small farn ers they are notable. What shall the do? One shredder can shred man crops. Several can combine and bu one. Or one man can shred for aeon munity, for toll or cash. While it is important to let the cor get thoroughly dry before shreddinf when it is dry you can wait any lengt of time before shredding. We cannot say in one article a that needs to be said about this gres improvement in saving the corn stal crop. Do not pull any more fodder. It i a costly and losing business.?Souther Cultivator. ? 9 + ' 8?" Few stains are more obstinat than those made by vaseline. How t remove them was told recently by domestic science teacher.

Thackeray loved to relate Jokes on d himself, and one he especially enjoyed y was about a Reading hackman. The author was unacquainted with the town, and the moment he emerged ,e from the railway station he told a l* hackney coachman to drive him to the y nearest hotel. The driver closed the 5' door ceremoniously, mounted his box y and they started. In half a minute the > l* cab was at a standstill and Thackeray ' saw the cabman at the door, bowing n to him to come out. He did so with- i out a word, and found that he was at 1 h the portico of the station hotel, which 1 he had failed to see was not a dozen U yards off. ^ But he handed the man a shilling and k was entering the hotel, rather pleased with his own sang froid, when he was , is amazed to see the cabman taking off D his coat and offering to "fight him for the other sixpense." It appears that on that day a resolution of the e Reading town council had come into o operation empowering hackney coacha men to charge eighteenpence for any e distance within the township. This j >t was its first fruits! It is unnecessary r. to add that the cabman got his money I a and Thackeray a good story to tell at y the clubs. d >f Founded 1842. t !
