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

3- THACKERY AND THE CABMAN.
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.
