that your silo. if you have one, Is IN
good repair before filling. TAX out any
soft or defective boards, and thus pre-
vent further injury to the structure by
the absorption Of moisture from the
crops when filled in. Give the inside Of
the siIo a coat of tar and pitch mixed hot.
before filling. In filling the silo. do not
rls,, the work too fast. 1t is better To
fill half the day or every other day and
allow time for the silage to pack and
heat rather than to fill right away. h
silage will be better and the sllo will
hold more. Cover with marsh hay or
chaff or cotton-seed hulls to Il depth CT
eighteen inches. This will prevent loss
of Silagc ut the top of the sllo.

"TWO TOES" is DEAD.
Hunters Hare at Last Disposed Of
FaDious Wolf

Hanters Hare at Last Disposed Of a
Famous Wolf
Old 1.-Two Toes" the most noted
wolf ever on the cattle ranges Of okla
homa. has been killed after four years
Of depredations. He destroyed many
thousands OF dollars worth of live
stock, but his cunning and strength
made II seemingly impossible to cap
ture him. He refused to eat poisoned
bait, and was too fleet TO be overtaken
by hounds lie was first heard OF four
years ago, when Jack Middleton, a
Woodward county ranchman caught a
large gray wolf in a trap. The wolf
escaped, however, leaving two toes OF
a right foot in the trap, which gave
him the name Of 1.-TWO Toes" Since
then dozens OF ranchmen have tried TO
catch him, but, although they killed
his family every spring, they were
never able to capture the head of IT,
In the early part OF June NJ j. Lane
went TO his ranch in Comanche county,
and soon saw some of 1.-TWO Toes "
tracks. He sent for Jack Middleton,
Pearl Bunton and pack OF hounds.
When they arrived lively hunt en-
sued, which finally resulted in Middle
ton bringing down the wolf with a
pistol shot.
The old marauder weighed 200
'ooun1s, and measured six feet in
length from tip to tip. His age, as
shown by his teeth, was about twelve
years. His death is SO pleasing to the
eat.lemen that at Kiowa, Kas, they
are raising purse of $3.50 for his cap
tors.

1t is thought that the former passed the

Simmons. a photographer, to whom 1t was
suggested that he aid them in passing the
bogus money. Simmons said he did not
care to go into the deal, but knew crook
who would. He then reported the matter
to the police. A detective was introduced
as the crook and was shown all the moulds
for the dollars, halves and quarters that
the pair were making, together with all the
outfit. This detective stepped outside the
door a minute and then two other detect

men. 1t is thought that in addition to the
pair being counterfeiters, they have also
been engaged in petty stealing, as quanti-
ties of cigars and cigarettes were found IN

COULD CHASE SEEP
The Jury Visits the Spot to Determine
This-A Chapter in Chase's Life

In the damage suit trial of Mrs. Elizabeth
e. Church against the Los Angeles Rail-
way company for serious hurts alleged to
have been received by falling off car, as
the result of the negligence of the cor
poration's employees the plaintiff con-
cluded her side of the case yesterday. The
jury was then taken out in charge of the
sheriff to view the place where the acci-
dent occurred on F street near the Pico
Heights postoffice. The defense will at
tempt to show this afternoon that 1t was
entirely due to her own neglect that Mrs
Church was injured.
During the forenoon session a pension
agent named NJ. NJ Chase, who has made
the acquaintance of various jails in his
time, was placed on the stand in behalf OF
the plaintiff. From where he stood, on the
opposite side of F street at the time OF
the accident. this witness claimed, he had
been able to see everything that happened
and the cimcuns tances were as alleged by
Mrs. Church. The defense claimed that If
Chase stood where he swore he was the
body of the car ntervened between his
view and the Nsrson of Mrs. Church. and il
would have been a physical impossibility
for the witness to have perceived what he
pose of determining the veracity or other,
wise of this witness testimony that the
jury was taken out TO the spot.
