officiated. Mrs. Hoffman, for fifty
minutes, held as if spell bound her
hearers, who were sometimes moved to
tears, and again to smiles, as she elo-
quently pleaded for the cause she so ably
represents. She said in part:
Nations, states. communities, families
and individuals leave legacies to those

The Rest wav to Make a silo.

There is still big difference of opin-
ion as to the best way to make silo.
According to articles printed in The
Rural New Yorker, it is best to use only
one thickness of boards and no coating
of gas tar, and also best to use two
thicknesses of boards with paper be-
tween and thick smear of the tar.
Two things, though, are settled-the
silo must be alright, and it is a grand,
good thing to add water under certain
conditions as the siIo is being filled.
