nnoyonce. The planks rot around the nail
holes and soon each individual plank will
Ay up if one steps upon an end. Besides
it ie difficult to secure a smooth walk with
orosswise planking. As to the planks, it.
is a'mistake to use inferior material, or
such as is inclined to splinter. Let the
planks be run through a .platter to make
them all of a thickness. A walk made in
this way will prove satisfactory in use a00

Feeding Fodder.
Corn fodder, to give the beat results
must be exposed to the elements as little
as possible. If stacked outside, the outer
layer of sheavee should be kept all winter
for protection, while those drawn from the
inside, as much as posaible,should be used.
Water -soaked and frozen corn -stalks prob.
ably represent as poor food as any that
can be thrown in the cattle yard. As soon
after g possible ha veatin
r i aa os ble the stalks
should be carted the
barn or atooked
outside properly for winter in auoh a way
that the rain will be shed. Top (tapping is
quite essential to preserve the full nutritive
valve of the fodder. It is always better
stored in the barn, but with a good dry
foundation and Dapping, it will stand the
exposure pretty well. In feeding, this
outside should first be diepoeed of before
that in the barn is touched.

all at oncein the fall of the year, but gen,
erally it is better to out as needed, or only
a week in advance. The suoaulence of the
stalks oozes out more or less when out in
small pieaea,and there is quiteapercentage
of lose. Where a cutting tnachine is not
owned, and it is necessary to borrow or
hire one, the whole quantity will have to
be cut at onoe;but after all,ctstting machines
are so cheap that it quite essential to
have one on the farm where many cattle
are kept. If the stalks are nut when in a
wet condition they will surely mould and
spoil, and it is quite essential in having the
whole crop out atoneet0 see that the stalks
aro in the proper condition for mampulo-
tion.
Butchering on the Farm.
In those days of low prioes for farm pro -
duets, a part of the farmer's Limo can very
profitably be employed in butchering ae
mush meat as hie household can use fresh,
or cured, for future needs. There is also
more or lees of a demand in the local mar-
ket for dressed carcasses, especially of
hogs. It is beat to kill the latter during the
coldest weather. The Dight and morning
before they are butchered the hogs should
not be fed, as the resulting emptiness of
the stomach and intestines allows the car-
case to be mere easily dressedandthe meat
to cool more quickly. In catching the ani -
male, do not chase thein to overheat the
blood and taint the flesh, nor bruise or whip
them, as the meat is killed along thecae ,
and is pale and tasteless. Sticking the hogs
through the throat to the heart kills and
bleeds the animals at the same operation,
though a previous well-direoted blow on
the head stuns the brain and prevents pain.
In scalding hoes, the boiling water should
be cooled 0onatd.1 ebly, for if too warm it
sato the hair instep, of loosening it. Either
have plenty of help or convenient appera-
nus to handle the carcasses rapidly. Save
the heat by covering the water barrel or
tank whenever puesible, and stones heated
in the fire may be used to warm the water
when it gets too coot The hair should be
pulled out, notshaved off, and a very dell
corn•knife or draw -shave will do rapid work
on the body, while a trowel will scrape the
grooves about the head. Hang up a carcass
from a gambrel stick in the haanetringe,
remove the insides ae aeon as possible, and
dranoh the heat, both inside and out, with
the coldest water obtaivable, so as to cool
the flesh rapidly. As soon as the carcass
is thoroughly cooled, but before it is frozen,
out it up into such pieces, ns aro desirable
for home use.. The parts that are to be
used fresh or for making teadelteoso should
be frozen, and if it is not couveniont to
render the lard immediately it may bo
treated m the same way, as also the offal
which is to be boiled intosoap grease. Pork
for future use should be salted.
1'o ours pork, dry salt is rubbed into the
out pieces thoroughly, especially around
the end of the bones in the hams and. shout
dere, and the salted meat is piled, skin
aide down, for twenty-four lours in a
plat:& where it will not freeze. Then elle'
moat is peeked closely into'barrels, with
a quarter inch of dry salt between the
layers, and heavy weights, snob as °loan
stones,are placed on the tap Then enough
salt is dissolved in boiling water to make
a brine strong enough when cooled to float'
a potato or an egg. The salted meat in the
barrel le new kept covered with a cold
brine,and left to Duro for five or six weeks,
according to the thickness of the meat, 10

and dried off for nee. It will keep best of

South Africa comes a talo of a living series
of container and contained somewhat in
this oame line. One Arthur E, Viney, in a
latter to the London Tiinee,vouchesfor the
story,
Near where Mr. Vtney lives at Ceres,
Cape Colony, there is an ostrich farm run
by a 101x. Mallerby, One day Mr. M.allorby,
while out walking, chanced upon a large
blacksnake. Usually these
snakes are very
swift and difficult to catch, but this Parti-
cular reptile moved oiuggiehly away when
the ostrich farmer approached. It was an
easy matter for Mr. Mallerby to kill the
reptile with a stick which he carried. Then
be noticed that the snake was very fat;
quite swollen, in fact, and heavy beyond
what was to bo expected from its size. He
took it home' and there out it open, In-
side was a yellow snake almost as large
as the blacksnake. The yellow snake;
faced the blacksnake's tail. This was a
surprise, but more WAS to follow. The yel
low snake also looked bloated. ' So Mr
Mallerby out open the yellow snake,
Inside he found .another blacksnake,
almost as big as the yellow snake. '10 faced
the name Way as the inside snake. Having
gone so far in the dissection business, the
experimenter proceeded to lay open the
third layer of serpent, hoping to turn out,a
blue or a crimson reptile by way of variety.
Instead, he found a bunch of eggs. Egg
after egg he took out end laid beside the
remains of the two blacksnakes and the
yellow snake. But hie sc ti
tea fie thirst for
exploration not ate d
p y lake and hero•
ceeded to puncture an egg Out popped a
small black enako. He tried another egg,
and got another just like it. Then he went
to work with a will, and when he had fin-
ished the job he found himeelf responsible
for the production of thirty minutecrawlere,
whereas he could credit himeelf with the
destruotion of only one. At last accounts
the rifler}, were still under his care.
From these data he nae igured out the
story of thelltirtythreesnakes. Evident-
ly the eggsbelonged to the smaller blaok•
snake, and perhaps she wasn't very lively,
for when a large yellow snake name creeping
along behind her she couldn't hueele fast
enough to escape, and the underwent the
presumably unpleasant sensation of being
swallowed tail first. Now the yellow snake
was rather sleepy after its square meal and
drowsed off. It hadn't been sleeping very
long when a bigger blaekbnake came along.
This Mr. Mallerby knows, because the acids
in a snake's stomach are verypowerful, and
had the smaller bluely/nab) been long in
the yellow snake's interior it would have
been eaten by the acids, whereas it was
hardly affected at all when taken out, al-
though it was dead,
The blacksnake then, seeing a yellow.
snake of just the right size asleep in the
sun, seized it by the head and swallowed
it. This was undoubtedly cannibalism ;
but then the blaokunake didn't know that
in taking in the yellow snake it was also
eating one of its own family. It was poetic)
justice, too, mud the avenger was peacefully
enjoying the rest of the well fed when Mr.
Mallerbycamealougandkilledit, Thedeath
must have followed close on the meal, for
the internal aside of the outside blacksnake
had not acted on the y llow snake any
more than the internal acids of the yellow
snake had acted on the inside blacksnake.
As for the eggs they weren't harmed at
all.
Afterward Mr, Mallbary was sorry he
didn't know all this before he killed the
outside serpent. Certain interesting ques-
tions that will never be answered now sug-
gested themselves to him. Supposing the
eggs had hatched inside the three layers of
snake (they were evidently just ready to
hatch out serpents), what would have be-
come of them? Supposing their mother,
the blacksnake, and their foster father, the
yellow snake, whohad providedatiome for
them, had both been digested by their out -
aide parent, the oig blacksnake, and they
had contained sttll in the egg, what would
lace become of them then? The outside
blacksnake was a male, Wouldn't it be
rather too much, even in these days, of
female preponderance, to expect a mole
blacksnake to lay thirty-two eggs that had
come into its possession purely by aeoldont?
Also, if it did so far forget its rights asa
mananake, what relation would it be to the
otfepring ? Fatheror mother or both ? And
where would the yellow snake and the
original blacksnake be in this ►nixed -tip
relationship ? klr. Mallerby would like
some =alto expert, who also knave :some-
thing about genealogy, to Dome forward
and enlighten nim on these points. ,,,sA ^ s

Gentlemen : I received a letter
from you May 27th, stating that you
had heard of my wonderful recov-
ery from a spell of sickness of six
years duration, through the nee of
Sonia Aslalilcav N:onvrxx, and asking.
for my testimonial. I was near
thirty-five years old when I tool:
down with nervous prostration. Our
family physician treated Inc, but with-
out benefitting me in the least. iOIy
nervous system seemed to be entirely
shattered, and I constantly had very
severe, shaking spells. In addition
to this I would have vomiting spells.
During the years I lay sick, my folks
had an eminent physician from Day-
ton, Ohio, and two from Columbus,
Ohio, to come and examine me.
They all said I could knot live. I
got to having spells like spasms, and
would lie cold and stiff for a time
after. each. At last T lost the nse of

could read a little, and one day saw
an advertisement of your medicine '
and concluded to try one bottle. By
the time I had taken one and one-
half bottles I could rise up and take
a stop or two by being helped, and.
after I had taken five bottles in all I
felt real well. The shaking went
away gradually, and I could eat and
sleep good, and my friends could', 1
scarcely believe it was I. I am sure
this medicine is the best in the world„
I belivo it saved my life. I give my
name and address, so that if anyone
doubts my statement they can write
me, or our postmaster or any citicen,.
es all are acquainted with my case.,
I ata now forty -ono years of age„
and expect to live as long as the
Lord has use for 1310 and do all the
good I can in helping the suffering.
