After adding packages to composer.json - you need to run "composer update" from your command line in order to actually download the files into your project.
Now when I run composer update I get:
Liu997$ ./composer.phar update
Loading composer repositories with package information
Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
Nothing to install or update
Generating autoload files

Let's start from the beginning. Try:
composer.phar require anahkiasen/former
It'll ask you for the version, type dev-master
Then add the Service Provider and Facade to app.php.
Remove the facade/service providers before running composer update, or, easiest, run composer update --no-scripts
After that, run composer dump-autoload, and that should work.
After following koomai's instructions, it no longer has a problem on pages that I don't use former. But on pages that I use former the web page loads up with
Class 'Former\Facades\Illuminate' not found
