The building is live -tones high, every was crowded full of to so large had been the chases of Such immense weight than Hie building could stand, and mid- way the house to the front second and floors fell in. The first had only about two feet clear from the ground, and the inside studs kept the other from coming down more than the same distance. Wat for this it is probable the entire build- would have collapsed.

Mr. says he stated that cattle and horses will eat the tender part of the stalks that cattle will fatten in a cot- patch after the stalks are killed by weather. Mr. Brown further mentioned his postal that Prof. Atkinson, of Boston, asserted at the first exposition that stalks and seed properly are worth more than Mr. Brown stated that the far have no to put the stalks in. and asked if had been made into hay. reply Raleigh, Oct. 10th, Mb. Isaac Tuckahoe, N. Your postal of the 8th to Mr Patterson has come to me, in his absence, for reply. The chemical of cotton stalks show them to be equal feeding value to ordinary grass hay- but the difficulty with them is that after the cotton is picked the stalks are so tough that animals will not eat them to consider- able though, as you say the case is rather different this sea- son, and if they should be cut be- fore frost, then stock would eat them. I see no reason why they should be a fair feed. You might try an experiment with them by cutting a quantity, and putting away for your stock. I am satisfied that experiment of this kind has been made. It you had a shredder, like the ones used in the of corn stalks, it would certainly improve the value of the stalks for feeding, as it would break and tear up so that the could eat them to much better advantage. Of course it would pay you, I think, to get one of these shredders just purpose, as it would be an experiment with you, a number of farmers the Slate having good farms arc g t i-., utilizing the entire corn plant instead of the ear fodder as it has been done heretofore. By this process double the feeding val- is gotten from the corn plant, as the cars contain about per of the total feeding value the stalk about per cent. am sorry I cannot give you Information on the subject but, as I have stated, I know of no experiments will help you out. Very respectfully, B. W. State Chemist. The Free Press knows nothing about such matters as the but publishes this article simply to put our farmers to thinking. If it ever would pay to harvest and save the cut ion it seems to us that this is ideal year to do so, Kinston Free Press. A Diplomatic Ultimatum.
