Although still an inmato of the 'French hospital In New York, Paul Hlouct (Mas O'llell) Is rapidly recouT Ing from the effects of th'c operation for rppendicltls performed a few dnyn ago. Ho referred to himself as tho "widest epen map In New York" two dnyu after parsing tpidcr the surgeon's tnlfe. Now he has written Ids experiences for the New York Journal. He says: When a month or so ago I decided on having nu operation performed upon me. some New Yorl: papers, short of In teresting matter for their reatierr. pub llshed the Information. This brought me scores of letters from cranks, fad dists, humbugs, faith healers nnd the like. "Cilve up sin'j-ome wrote, "and you will tie all right." "Try my cure." yvutc charlatans. An other of this class said: "Have you .tried hydrotherapy? With hot water I can tiring on a crisis that win settle you." In fact, I received lots of disinterest CJ advice, nud gratis too. A faddist wrote: "Do not submit to the cruel knife of a surgeon. Out of a hundred people operated on seventy die; the oth er thirty are maimed for life." Ignorance and prejudice go no fur ther. Now, dear reader, if you arc sure .that something Is wrong with nny part of your anatomy do not hesitate to have done to yourself what you wonlil order your gardener to do to your trees under the same circumstances. Have the damaged, brokcti or dead branches taken off. Pruning that is, surgery Is the lUmpIest. shortest, saf est nnd surest remedy. If your np jiendlx Is wrong, off with it. If your big Intestine, or colon, gets constricted nud threatens to become n semicolon, be sure that It will soon become n full stop nnd kill you. Off with the offending constricted part That's your only chance. I must sayI was not afraid of the operation. I can always submit to the Inevitable, as I opeo, said to a ycry ngly man whtt said ho was glad (9 .make my acquaintance because he had been o!d I Jcoked very much like him. I prepared myself cheerfully for many days, so as to be strong nnd well nnd give the surgeon and myself as good a chance as I could. Wlvat does nn operation consist in. cvoii uch a long and dangerous one mi I have undergone? You go to Bleep quietly, pleasantly, and by and by you wake up. When you do wake up, jou Inquire If the thing Is done, and you learn that it is. You feel no puln, and you have felt no pain, not even discom fort. My operation lasted two hours, nnd I was under ether from 2:4 5 to fi p. 111, I slept soundly all night. The nest morn- ing I was reading tho papers in bed. All I can remember is that when I woke from my enforced sleep I had a vngue idea I was In a greenish, foex-v atmosphere, and I heard, as In the dis tance, many soft volcen whispering: "Hello' Hello! Wake up! How do you feci':" The day after tho operation I had teaspoonfuls of chicken broth over two hours, the following tidy table spoonfuls, the nest day eggu and milk a::d the next such meals as for tw years I liad not dreamed of permitting myself to try. My dear friends, I cannot remember five minutes of pain. Maybe my anato my Is not lmpioved, but I don't wear decollete dress, and I feel I liavo been given n new lease of life, of health and of happiness. Operations aro absolutely freo from danger. The only thing is that germs may get nt you, but thin danger does uot exist with tho marveloun precau tions of sterilization und antiseptics which nre taken by tho nurtft'ouH of to day. ,, I havo been in the French hospital for three wqeka.

K'.Rtrcu nr.K i F-tt The coat of growing corn, cutting It and pint lug It In the silo has been vari ously reported nt nlinoht all llgurcs from $l to ?a per t.m, says American Cultivator. We do not doubt lint that It has -been done for Lho smaller sum when the land hus'lieon miule rich and well cpltlvuted and 'lie most nicdein Improvements were at .hnnd to do the work, but we think n fair nvernge would be nearer double that with the ordinary farmer even In a favorable season. Hut there nre not many who would like to grow roots for feeding to stock at that price. Certainly we know of none who would grow them to sell nt that price, and few would care to grow them nt 51 per ton If they could grow other crops ami tlndn ready cash market for them. As regards the value of them, an average of tho various roots shows that the wiino amount of each fed will equal rations of hay und grain resulted a llttli In favor of tho roots, hut this was more than offzwt by the two factH that the roots cannot be kept In jim good condition Tor late i-prltig or summer feeding nn can tho ensilage and that there Is more apt to be a crop falluru from diougut or other causes with tho roots than with tho corn. The droughts of the two past years haw led many to believe that hnvlng ensllnge t feed in the summer, when pastures aro growing poorer, Is of iiltnn.se ns much importance, and fom say more, than laying It In the vrtntor. Thr Thrrn .Sllua, What Is the best stylo of silo Is still n mooted question. The round stave silo has been very popular for several years largely because It Is the cheapest form of silo that can be erected. When properly built and projHTly taken care of, it also seems to be fairly durable. Next in favor M tho square or rectan gular silo, with cut off corners. Thin makes an excellent silo. The remain ing style la tho round silo built wholly of stone and brick or with part Btuno nnd brick nnd Above that a wooden fctructure with studding set In the wall nnd covered outside ami Inside with thin boards that will bend to 11 circle, with best quality of building paper be tween tho boards. It goes without say ing that a silo built of stone or brick or n combination of stone and brick will be nmro durable' than any structuro built of wood and In some places per baps not more expensive. Dormi't 1,1 Ur rmvpena. A dairy farmer In Carlisle. Pa., with 2fX) cows does not like cowpens for food for his herd. He sowed two acres, nnd the yield was good, but tho cows refused to eat them. He thlnkH they might do for southern cowa that can not get n square meal without taking a mountain walk of a mile or more. IIo cannot understand how well fed cova can bu Induced to eat thvm. Hut there are farmero who clalul thnt both cows and horses cut them greedily and seem to prefer them to other food, Hays tho American Cultivator. Hut, as all do not, nud It seems to bo au acquired taste, uud as they aro as dlfllcult to cure as hay, wo see no rensou for urglug 11 1 trial or them on northern farmem or thoi-e who can grow' clover, which seems to suit tho nppetlto of till our nniinaiH nud which produces nearly If not quite iih much food per ncre nil tho cowpea nii'fl iih much rilJlc per ton of dry or green food an any crop grown. The MnssachiiMittH I'Xperltuont ututlon has spent much time and uoino monoy in testing vnrloiin fodder crops, but wo think It has not yet found any bet ter than tho combination of corn fod der and clover, which seems to grow In iiimost any fertile soil to furnish food thnt ail nulmalH llko nnd thrlv on, whether gryen or dry cured, and that leave Ihellaud In ns good If- not better condltloiv)for futifro crops aq any ltodb that tint'n l,i.r.n ttni innn&5kfJi . .

Not only could we refer to thnt hi id as strongly favoring the adoption of tho methods of feeding there, but ample testimony from other herds could bo cited with similar lesults.
