smallest at the bottom. In using such
silo. especially when fling e. care
should be observed in going into II
when there is possibility that car
bonic acid has accumulated to a dan
gerous extent. When stave siles are
built of good durable lumber they are
but little cheaper than the very much
more substantial and much better
wood and lathed and plastered silos.
If one wishes to build cheap tenn
porary silo which will stand rigldly
and will preserve the silage in good
condition it is possible to do this for
less money than the stave silo VIII
cost. In short, says Prof. King, the
instability of the stave silo should pre-
vent its use outside of another build
ing.
Crops will make the best silage when
they are cut as near full maturity as
possible and yet have their tissues
filled with sap. When corn is put In
to the silo in a very succulent state 1t
is filled with large per cent. OF COM
pounds which are easily decomposed,
and this not only makes the unavold-
able losses high but it is likely to
cause unpleasant odors and less palat-
able feed. Besides there has not yet
been developed enough of the woody
tissues in the plant to enable the
juices to be retained under the pres
sure of the sflage and in early silo
practice provision was often made Tor
drainage on this account. Corn is IN
the best stage for the silo when 1t is
in the best stage for cutting and put
ting in the shock; that is, when the
ears are fully matured but the stalks,
leaves and husks are yet green. Glover
for the silo should be little more
mature than for making the best hay,
that is, the bloom should have well
begun to turn brown.
We are told in conclusion that where
man possesses a good sil0 of some
what larger capacity than is needed
he is able to manage so as in large
measure to be unaffected by the var
liability of seasons. Silage may be car
ried from year to year with little loss
so that one is able, if he has silo, to
store a reserve of feed in seasons OF
heavy crops to be used in seasons
when they fall below the average. In
this way one is not only more largely
Independent OF seasons but he is able
to carry a much larger herd upon the
same amount of land. Silage in good
silo does not appear to materially de-
teriorate with age, and it has been
fed when six years old. In semi
arid climates where the rainfall is ex-
tremely variable the silo will be found
very desirable as a means of holding
green feed in reserve to be used in
seasons of drought; and if experience
shall prove that alfalfa and Kaffir corn
can be made into silage with anything
like the advantage with which corn
is handled in this way the agricultural
possibilities of semi arid climates will
be very greatly increased.

A recent bulletin from the univer-
sity treats of silos, a subject of great
practical interest to progressive farm
ers. Prof. F. H. King is the author
and he strongly urges the use and
Importance of silage. In intensive
farming, he says, it may be fed the
year around and is relished as well in
summer as in winter. 1t is much
cheaper than soiling crops for summer
feed, and there is nothing equal to it
for short pastures" AS part of the
winter ration of domestic animals it
is the only available substitute for
roots and it is great misfortune to
the interests of animal husbandry

Detailed and exhaustive descriptions
of the proper manner Of constructing
silos are given. A good stone, 13-
foot silo, 80 feet deep, will cost about
S175, and have a storage capacity of
between 20 and so tons. A silo rs feet
in diameter, 80 feet deep, will cost in
the neighborhood of 1928 for capacity
OF 290 tons, making 1898 per ton for
the smaller silo, and s1.14 per ton
for the larger one. Excellent silos may
be made of brick and where brick of a
good quality can be obtained at $4.25
to 81 per thousand a silo which will
last indefinitely may be made at a
moderate cost. Two brick silos "a feet
deep and 121s feet inside diameter,
built in a barn, cost the owner S110
each with no stone work in the found
alton and the lower Is feet IA inches
thick, with Pinch dead air space,
and with iron rods laid in the wall
every feet. The brick cost 81 % per
thousand. Another brick silo 80 feet
deep, IL feet inside diameter, with the
lower feet of stone, the next s feet OF
3 brick with hollow wall Ia inches
thick and the remainder of brick s
inches thick, cost the owner a little
less than 500. These silos cost less
than 10 cents per surface foot.
Four lathed and plastered silos cost
$500, 5000, s475 and s352.9O respective
ly. The first was % feet deep and 2e

seal OF condemnation on American
meat 1t happens that he is in i'm

which is hardly to be expected after
his exhibition of ill-will. AS the

there has been no reasonable ground

BEFORE THE AGE OF HOMER.

The excavations carried out by
Arthur Evans and D. G. Hogarth in
Crete continue to yield results of the
highest interest. On that portion of
the site of ancient Knossos which Mr..
Evans has selected for Investigation
(Khephala) a Mycenaean palace has
been discovered containing relics of
extraordinary Importance, by means of
which the hitherto uncertain question:
Of Myeenaean writing has been
finally settled. In the chambers of the
buildings have been found a whole
series of clay tablets, analogous to
the Babylonian, but with indigenous
Cretan script. These tablets are ap-
parently palace archives. On the
south front of the building the en-
trance hall of the megaron has come
to light, and in the adjoining corridor
is large piece Of fresco representing
full-size figure Of girl in Mycenae-
an costume holding a long vase. In
briliancy Of coloring and grace OF
form the figure surpasses anything
hitherto discovered belonging to this
period. The remains belong to the
great Myeenaean age, about 1400 B. c.
1t is believed that important and in
teresting traces have been found of
civilization anterior to the age Of
Homer.-London Times.

And He Wagu't the Only ono Who
Cusscd.
1t was supposed that the captain
never swore because he had been a
minister, but it was only one of the
l~ieutenants who had been a minister.
and he had decidedly fallen from
grace. The right of swearing had
been a question of continued discus
sion aboard ship. The executive of
ticer swore because he was all bile.
the navigating officer because he was
jolly, and when the captain remon-
strated with him he said: What can
do? The whole shipload of men are
swearing, captain. cusigns and sea-
men, and I've got to beat them all to
show my position, haven't -" How
ever that was. excitement generally
followed a public swearing by the
captain except on one day when the
excitement preceded it. That day the
sea was calm and nothing much was
going on aboard ship save the con
slant watch of the blockuded Cuban
port and the sea horizon. The air was
clear, the sun was bright. and for
some unusual atmospheric reason ev-
erything that appeared over the hur-
lion was tremendously magnifcd. \
puff of smoke was seen beyond the
sky line and all hands watched eager
ly for the appearance of the steamer.
Up she came. putting away. and in
the clear light she looked like the

flags, she looked strange. and she
bore down on the blockading cruisers

growing larger and larger, while the
crew waited breathlesSIy for some
word from the captain. The officers
IN the bridge stood watching her fix
eddy, muttering because they could
not make her out. Finally the cap
tain said: well, she doesn't answer
our signals, and its not our fault if
she gets hurt" Then turning to the
bugler he said: Sound clear ship for
action" This process was no mean
job, but when a scrap was in sight it
could be done quickly. and in tive
minutes all hands were ready tO an
swer the call to quarters. Again
there was anxious waiting. Then a
queer change came over the appear
ance of the approaching craft. She
had gotten well out of the horizon
zone, and as she came near enough
for the water to be seen foaming at
her bow she grew peculiarly small.
Officers and men began to look fool
ishly at each other, and still the
stranger grew smaller. Looks of sur
prise grew to looks of disgust. and
despite the fact that they were stand.
ing at quarters, the men began to act
as if they were unconscious of the ap-
preaching vessel, as though no one
had ever suggested a scrap. The
steamer, shrunken to a tug. turned

distance, displaying Il large white
