CORN HOUSE PLAN.
A Hulldlur That Naves the Crop from
IhnnaKlaa KaVcta.
The accompanying illustrations from sketches by CI E. lloaton, of Massachu
setts, show a novel aad useful plan for
a corn house, by which not only more corn is sheltered In proportion to the
bizo and expense of the building, but,
what is of vastly moro itnportunce, the corn to saved from the damaging effects r -! . f. i t a p
Ol unviiig rain anu anow, which in
moist climates so seriously affect
the value of the crop in tho oldfashioned cribs, while it is waiting to bo ground or fed. Tho ordinary crib has slatted sides, and the ventilation is horizontal, hence the driving rain and snow finds easy access to every ear of corn. Hut by this method the ventilation, while even more per feet, is from the bottom upwards, which entirely protects the corn from direct exposure to tho elements. The building, which may be of any convenient size or proportion, is placed upon chestnut or oak posts two feet high,

A building of Miitablu size for a small farm is eight by twelvo feet, and six feet from Rill to plate. A partition, as shown in Fig. 1, leaves an alleyway four by eight feet at one end, with an outside door, a, as well as a doorway, b, which gives access to the crib. For convenience there should also be a window at c This makes a convenient place in
which a corn-shellcr may be stored and
used, and in which, also, the bags may

a crib eight feet square for tho corn.
and, as it could be tilled considerably above the plates, it would store about
four hundred bushels of cars, or sufli
cient to make two hundred bushels shelled. Tho bottom of the crib is floored with narrow boards, leaving a space of three-fourths of an inch be
tween the boards, thus making a slat
bottom to the crib instead of slat sides. The sides should be boarded tight like any other building. To secure perfect ventilation, rough doors are hung from the sills of the building, against the posts on which it rests, and care is taken while the corn is curing to keep nil these ventilating doors closed, except on the side towards the wind. Thus a current of air will be continually forced up through the corn, and escape through the ventilator in the roof. Fig. 2 shows the ventilation

An upper door is provided through which to fill the crib, and, if it desired to fill it to the very roof this may be accomplished by carrying tho last few bushels up a step ladder in the alleyway. American Agriculturist AMONG THE POULTRY. It is a good plan to cull out and sell early all the chickens that are not tobe wintered. Even in winter it is an item to have dust foi the fowls whero they can flutter at will. The wise poultryman avoids ex
ironies, but feeds enough to keep the

The objection to throwing out the egg shells to the hens is the liability of their getting into the habit of eating

THE AMERICAN FARMER.
War Ii Futur !.. Mort I'roialslaf Tlimi Kvrr Hi-fore. At no time In tho history of the couatry hus the future of ugricultiire been more promising. There was u time.not long ago, when the soil and the farmer
cie union friendly terms, when there wiis a conflict between them. Hut that time is past, or is passing with the progressive farmer. Ho has learned, islearnlng every day. that the fault was with him and not the land. The soil, lacking certain ingredients, could not produce good results. The horse cannot be expected to work at the plow all day, aiany days, If fed only on dry hay. To-day the farmer Is coaxing his land very much us he does his stock, or ho is providing food for his plante with almost as much care as he feeds his animals, If he expects to be successful lhe farmer tests his land for himself: he does not wait for the chemist, oV prefers to be his own chemist in hla way. If potash, nitrogen or phosphoric acid are wanted, he adds them, and he has come to the stage of independence when he mixes his own fertilizers, and knows exactly with what ho has to work. That's progress. Commercial fertilizers are tho farmers' aids, but the government analysis and inspection has opened his eyes, and he sees now that he may prepare his own fertilizer and save money, The farmer no longer plants haphazard; he has begun to see that agriculture Ik an art, a science more intricate than any other; that to be successful in its prosecution ho must know several
sciences. No longer doea ho merely drop a potato in the earth, cover It up, keep down the weeds and dig the increase in the fall. He studies the soil and the fertilizer and then tho notato.
Shall heplnnt large or small potatoes.
cut or uncut, one eye or more, the stem
end or the seed end?
Thus throughout the range of agrl
cuuure every step is thought out and practically made in advance. There nre
many croakers about agriculture, some
euuoriai croakers in newspaper oflices
who, possibly, might be able to tell a hay-cutter from a grindstone, who rise up periodically to say with a loud voice (more or less, according to their circulation) that agriculture has a black eye; that it is limping along on one leg, and not a very strong leg at that, and that the whole fabric of agriculture, like the sheep, is going1 to tho dogs. If these croakers had attended some of the "winter meetings" that have been held in the different states last winter and seen the interest and enthusiasm, seen the men aye, the women, too, assembled and spent two or three days in asking each o'thcrquestions and comparing notes, the agricultural pessimist would admit, if honest that there is a force belli nd agriculture that will not let it stand still. Let every farmer keep his shoulder to the wheeL It turas easier than it did, aad does not have to be helped out of so many ruts and quagmires as it did. Let every fanner be proud of his calling, stick to it, dignify it and swear by it (not profanely). Why, it is not long ago when the farmer at gatherings of any kind took a back seat; it was raro to see a farmer on the platform. All the speeches were made by the lawyer, tho clergyman and the "good talker" of no calling or profession. That has changed. The
farmer got nearer and nearer to the platform, and now, forsooth, he is on it and doing the talking, and taking no odds of any man. This is not idle tnlK; it is fact Agriculture is alive. George Appleton, in Farm and Fireside.

Little Drop of Water, Etc. There is a fashion of depreciation
such small industries as tho care of poultry on farms us being below the
Kiiibitinu of a farmer and rather to be considered us contemptible than deserving. Hut, as a rule, small thing? seem small to small minds, while the nipre intelligent look upon small things more in the light of parts of a whole, to be considered In the aggregate. There are farmers who make less money elear from twenty acres ol wheat than the wife gains from her fowls or from her wcll-cared-for hives. Indeed, this may remind us of what the great poet, the lover of rural things, said of this small business of keeping bees: "Labor in tenui, at gloria noo tennis" which means that labor besUiwedoa a trifling matter may bring rewards that are not trifling. Every little thing on a farm should count It is the aggregate of many little cars of grain that makes th.s farmer's income; and to pick a snowy ball of cotton by the nimble fingers Is a trilling thing, but many balls and many fingers go to
mane up Uie great aggregate of 4,000,000,000 pounds of this staple, which, were it not gathered, would desolate
the whole civilized world. Truly,
small things are not to be despised, if
it is but a single bee or a helpless oue day-old chick. Kural World.
