Nothing has ever been invented that is so useful for the saving of green food for the feeding of stock as the silo. In fact, the means of preserving ensilage Is of the greatest practical Interest to every farmer, stock breeder and dairyman in the country, ami is of commanding impor tance to the agricultural world. This process of preserving vegetation Is far more economical than the saving of hay or the growing of corn. The silo furnishes the means of laying by an abundance of forage for season of drought. More cattle can be support edetl from a given acreage of land by the use of ensilage than in any other way, and the quantity of manure can be proportionately increased. The word ensilage originally meant the act of compressing into pits, trenches or compartments, which are called silos. It now means the materials com pressed. These silos may be built above ground or in part below and in part above the ground. Ill the South ern States it Is the custom to build them wholly above ground. ?Southern farm .Maga/.ine, Kuinv- IlitcU I'orU, II i< n fact.

Value of | INKS Harvest Twice as Groat as Nation's Debt. # Washington, 1). C.? That the current year will he a banner year for crops iu this country Is the Indication of thp Covcrnincut crop report. The Govern ment crop experts have figured out that th ? roru crop will lie 2,710.018,000 busluds, though with favorable weath er this yield may bo Increased so that tin? crop may be close to the throe bill ion bushel mark. At the?price now ob taining in Chicago for May corn, of forty-lour cents a bushel, the value of this crop would reach $1,195,443,1)20. The largest previous crop, harvested In IN! Ml, gave 'J. 0(515 .000, 000 bushels. The spring wheat crop will be only Slightly behind the record crop of 1N0S, when bushels of spring wheat were harvested In the North west. The probable result this year i* now placed nt 2?S0.047,,H)l) bushels. While tiic wheat and corn crops are the most important in the popular es timate. there are other crops which are nearly as essential to national prosperity, ami t ifese also promise great returns, according to the Govern ment report. The crop of oats will probably be In the neighborhood ot P."iO.<m lO.uOt i bushels, of a value at pres ent prices for .May delivery in Chicago, 111., of $274,700,000. These three crops combined will be worth $2,075,080,340. This is nearly three times the amount o. our entire national bonded debt, which amounts to $805, 157,530, and nearly twice the amount of the public debt of the I'nited States. Cold From Alaska. More than $15,000,000 of gold from the Alaskan and Klondike tletds tus already been deposited In the Cnltetl Stabs Treasury this season, and. bused on the output of prior years, it i* probable that some $7,000,000 or $S,UOO.OOO additional will be received before the close of navigation.

Great suffering and sickness came upon Hez eklah, King of Judah. Tho prophet Isaiah saw that death was the Inevit able result of such sickness only as (Jod interposed. Then it was that I Ic&C'Kiu u aabi-d fO'i added* yea i's, uiid received promise of fifteen yearn more. III. Topic: The suffering, atoning Saviour. Place: Jerusalem, the pro phet Isaiah's home. This Is the deep est and loftiest of the Old Testament prophecies, and points clearly and defi nitely to the atonement. The life and mission of Christ is related in few words embracing humiliation, suffer ing, atonement and exaltation. The main thought is that the Servant Is to bo tho instrument In establishing the truo religion, by removing the burden of guilt and bringing many to right eousness. IV. Topic: Tho gospel's gracious call. Place: Jerusalem. Regardless of the mean opinions of men and their lack of faith in the Saviour a magnificent kingdom was founded, aud to it invita tion and Joyous weloonio is extended. Jehovah's thoughts transcend those of man as much as the heaven is higher than tho earth. The thoughts and ways of Jehovah arc Ills purposes of redemption.. V. Topic: Chapters in a sinful life.

By him the good work of reform was wrtirso than undone; the pooplo wclit Into the lowest depths of wickedness. In his mature 'years Manasseh was made to feel the rod of afillctlon which led him to repentance. Then ho sought to repair some of the evils. VI. Topic: Vital factors In a success ful life.

His sou A mon disregarded this effort 0 jk' the part of his father, and led peopw on In Idolatry for two years, when ho ?was slain by his servants In his. own house. Then his youthful son Joslah came to the throne. He made earnest work of destroying Idol worship and of repairing the house of the Lord: VII. Topic: Purpose and mission of the Bible. Place: Jerusalem. WJth the neglect of the temple the people had been without tho book of the law. In repairing tho temple this book .waa found and brought before the king. He was greatly moved because of the fearful disobedience of the people, and the awful curse of God iwhich was pronounced upon tho very sins Judah had committed. lie at once sought to know what the Lord would say unto them. The promise to him was that the curse should not como upon the people during bis life. VIII. Topic: Trying to destroy God's word. Place: Jerusalem.
