Mave no guttor and find this stable touch easier to clean. Platforms should slope to gutter about two inches in four feet. For manger back usoe,2 by 8 inch plank on edge twenty incheo frons front. Ilayrack is thirty-four inches from floor to bottom of rack. For bot tom use 2 by 12. Place its front edge even with the front of nianger. For slats use I by 2, 3 feet long, nailed four and a half inches apart. Itack in this way is 12 inches at bottom, 8 feet high and should be about 8 feet wide at top, with equal flare on both sides. Put in partitions 4% feet high, reaching back 4% feet from-front of manger, so Wt each cow has a separate nmahger Wil cannot hook her neighbor. Partition is of inch boards up and down. Board at back end of partition should reach the celiliW for support. Do not let partition reach into rack, which is better not divided. For end of stable where platform is longest put partitions about 8 feet 2 inches apart and gradually nearer towlard short end until only thirty-four inches Is allowed. This* is very iitti difference, but suff. clent for stable fifty feet long. I have two. Fasten a pole three inches*in diame ter into floor four inches from manger and four inches from partition on left side of each cow. Procure ordinary cow tie chains with the large ring and swivel. Slip ring over the pole, which should be about four feet high, and then fasten top of pole to partition nearly perpendicular. This allows the cows to step back and forth, but with the manger low. They lie down so far forward that they very seldom get any manure on them. My- cows have no horns, so do not hook. Never have any trouble about wasting hay or keeping bedding under cows. --Cor. Country Gentleman. The question of economy of storage room is entirely in favor of silage, writes a correspondent of American Cultivator. Less room is required for storing the product from a certain number of acres in the silo than in a barn in cured condition. Iay placed in the mow will take up more than 'three times as much room as the same quantity of food materials put into the silo. In the case of field cured fodder corn the comparison comes out still more favorably to the silo on account of the greatdr difficulty in preventing the thick cornstalks from spoiling when placed under shelter. Another reason why the silo has been adopted generally is that an acre of corn can'be pliaced in it at less than it can b)e p~ut up as cured fodder. To de rive full benefit from the food materi als in the field cured corn fodder it must be run through a feed cutter in smnaI! proportions at a time; the corn must in most cases be hunked, cribbed and either ground cob ind all or shelled and ground. In siloing corn the whole plant is now as a rule run through the cutter and filled into the silo at once, thus doing away with the separate handling of ear corn. Careful experi ments withl milk cows conducted by several of our experiment stations have shown that silage thus made from corn cut "ears and all'' has produced somewhat more milk and butter than dry fodder and ear corn handled and fed separately, the product from the same area of land being compared in both cases. E Ixtra Pasture Land. As animal industry becomes a per Imanent industry mere et the farm must be converted into pasture. But if the fertility of the farm is to .be in creased, if a good profit is to be real ised from the new system, two blades of grass must grow in the place of one; twice as much stock must be kept on the same number of acres. It will draw very greatly upon the intelligence of the man to handle his pasture land so that the yeld of forage it produces be comes even better every year. The pasturo must have periods of rest. It cannot. be continually nipped into the ground. It must net be overstocked. Forage crops must help it out in a hot, (dry spell and ini early fall. It will need a top dressing of manure or some good commercial fertilizer. Kentucky blue grass, a native of our state, wvith a mix, ture of orchard grass, is probably the best variety of our grasses suited tc permanent pasture.-Indianapoli News Cured.
