from one edge? Figs. l, and 8 show
the three plans. By putting the parti-
tion, as in Figs. 1 and 9, the silage
from one-half must be thrown across
the other, which means much extra
work in emptying silo. The partition
should be placed as in Fig. and good
doors made to fit the opening in each
side. Use paper, or what is better,
felt to make the joints air-tight
The reader also asks If it would not
be all right to have the boards cut and
put in the partition as the silo is filed.
1t would be impossible to make a parti.
tion alright when put in in such
manner. Too much care cannot be
taken in putting in such a partition.
The ends will have to have much work
where Joined to the walls or air will
get through when one side is empty.
The work should be done in a good and
substantial manner, as there is great
pressure. Both sides should be filed
simultaneously and well compacted

best-made partition if one side was
put in at a time. After it is well
settled if one side is taken out the
pressure is not so great.
When taking out the first side. have
large number of braces ready the
proper length, and as fast as the silage
is used put in the braces. Fig. 4
shows the braces in position from the
sides of the silo to the partition. These
braces should have some pieces at the
ends running the opposite direction to
the material against which the brace
is to support. That is, if the silo is
stave and the partition horizontal to
the brace the end pieces should be as
in Fig. .. If the timber of the outside
of the silo is horizontal the brace
should be as in Fig. 6. When one side
of the silo is empty, there is no danger
of the wall giving way If these precau-
tions are taken. Next year, when fill
ing, the braces as well as the end
pieces should be taken out and laid
away for another year. BY this method
the man with small herd can build
a moderate sized silo and have silage
through the dry time as well as winter
at very small outlay of money!

FARM @

1t may be better on some farms to
laul manure directly to the field than
% leave 1t exposed in winter and lose
, portion of its soluble plant food. If
manure is spread on land 1t should be
rs free as possible from litter, and the
1est place to spread it is on grass land

During the winter and early spring

Large Profits in Swine.

While good many farmers may be
slow in raising hogs to convert corn
into profitable pork when this grain
is as high as at present it is neverthe-
less true that more money can be made
in the aggregate in feeding the corn
to hogs than in selling it in the mar
ket There is no easier way of making
money on the farm than to raise sw!iie
in season and out of season, sticking
to the business year after year, and
profting by the Improvements which
come through continuous efforts direct
ed towards one purpose. In fact large
fortunes have been made in swine
breeding and feeding ON large scale.
where the clover and corn were raised
for no other purpose than to feed the
animals at home. With the full crop
raised to feed the hogs one will be
sure to find fair market for il each
year. There, of course, is an occa-
sional over-productiop of hogs when
prices drop, but the business must be
considered In the aggregate of years,
and not by single year.
There is no other live stock which
can be made to turn out the same
amount Of live weight within a given
time as young pigs which are fed
literally from the day of their birth
until ready for market 1t is possible
to raise. them so that the farming of
the fields will improve year by year un.
der the process. Every ton of corn
taken from the farm and sold in the
market takes about six dollars worth
OF fertility from the fields. Now the
question is how to save this fertility
by returning part or all of It to the
soil. BY system of clover and corn
raising for feeding swine we can, in
fact, return at least three-fourths of
this utility TO the land In this way
we do not rob the soil to make money
to-day, which tomorrow we must
spend to purchase more fertility. The
farmer who raises his clover and corn
for the swine is in fair way to i'm
prove his land indefinitely, and at the
same time to make good profit. Hog
raising is thus more profitable than
grain growing, or almost any other
distinct line OF agricultural works..

Humus in Soils.

The farmer can increase the amount
OF humus and nitrogen by growing
leguminous plants in soils of good
average fertility. There are from 25OO
TO 1000 pounds of nitrogen. 5000 to
1000 pounds Of potash and $500 to
5000 pounds of phosphoric acid per
acre In the surface soil. These pro-
portions vary, of course. according to
the character of the soils. When a
clover crop Is grown and harvested the
soil is left In better condition than
before, especially in nitrogen. while
considerable amounts of potash. phos-
phoric acid and lime are, during the
growth OF the clover, absorbed and
built up into its tissue, which are OBJ

WANTS
INDIAN TERRITORY

INDIAN TEHRlT TORY
AS a result of tie hostile attitude
Of Oklahoma in regard to statehood
with Indian territory and the many
deprecstory and false statements
made concerning that territory in
their mad attempt to exclude it from
statehood with Oklahoma. Arkansas
papers, lead by the TT Smith News
Record, have started campaign to
secure the annexation Of Indian ter
ritory to Arkansas.
Thi- shows that the people Of Ar
kansas do not regard it as such a
incubus as MCGUIRE and the Repub-
lican press would have us believe.
This is the legitimate fruit Of con
tumely and falsehood No other thing
that could happen would so ALLEVIATE
the people Of Indian territory as the
Endorsement Of this campaign OF
abuse by the people of this territory
through the election OF Mcclure.
There is no very considerable sen.
timent in the Indian territory sup
porting the idea OF the TT. Smith pa.
pers for nearly all regard immediate
single statehood with Oklahoma as
the certain outcome OF the present
conditions.
But an Endorsement by the people
of Oklahoma Of the misrepresenta-
tions of the Republican press and
spellbinders would force Indian terri
tory to seek other solutions for her
problems, as TO a man they resent
the idea of piecemeal absorption as
embodied in the omnibus bill.
On the other hand the Endorsement
OF Hon Bill Cross and immediate
single statehood would awaken such
a tide of enthusiastic support from
Indian territory as well speedily bring
about the creation of one good state
with vast natural resources and i'm
mense volume of taxable property
and consequent low taxes, toge her
with a vast additional endowment for
schools of Indian territory.

it that the willful Misrepresentation
Of the Indian territory 10 not receive
