VALUE OF THE SILO.
Al Important in Animal Husbandry
as the Improved Barn
Corn Crib.

The use of the silo as an economic
institution of the farm has been ex-
emplifed the last winter in many
farming sections have visited. Al
most without exception, wherever
have gone, have seen more or less un-
husked corn standing in the fields, ex-
posed to the wind, rain and snow,
and to the hungry tribute gatherings
of mice and crows. The valuable food
elements of the fodder are, Of course,
the ones most soluble, and moisture
cannot fall upon and run off of any
ripened forage without carrying away
with it some of the most easily avail
able elements of nutrition. Fodder so
exposed to the weather cannot be COM
pared in feeding value with that early
husked and stored, as any feeder who
has fed the two kinds in comparison
well knows. The good results from
that consumed are much less, COM
pared to the results from the early
stored, while the amount refused by
the animals is very much more.
These losses resulting from the corn
exposed in the shock to the fall and
winter weather are so extreme that
the saving that would have been eff
fec8ed had the corn been ensilaged is
so apparent that it is not necessary to
further enlarge upon it. But the corn
saved in the silo has the further in
trinsic value of being much more thor
Oughly saved at the very height of its
perfection so that it is easy 10 count
it as having double the feeding value
of the other. 1t must be remembered
also that corn cut for the silo is cut
clear to the root or as close to it as pos
sible, whereas that cut and shocked to
be husked usually has a stubble from
one foot to three feet long left on the
field. This is all lost as feed. In the
silo it is all saved.
The fact that corn is our greatest
crop, most easily and proftably raised,
and that by stirring it in the silo it's
fullest feeding value is obtained, and
as a result the live stock capable of
being kept on given number of acres
may be almost doubled, it seems
strange that the silo among intelligent
farmers is not considered as necessary
in animal husbandry as the barn or the
corn crib.-W. F. McSparran, in N. Y.

ESTABLISHED FACTS.
Have Been Established by Ex-
haustive Experiments.

Some things may be said to have been
well established concerning milk by
long and exhaustive experiments,
which we will enumerate as follows:
l. If milk rich in butter fat is de-
sired we must breed for it. 1t is en-
tirely dependent upon, the individuality
of the COW, so that men have finally
established that individuality into a
breed Characteristic, as with the Jer-
sey and Guernsey breeds.
2. A bull belonging to butter breed
will impart this quality to his heifers
if he has sufficient prepotency Also
bull belonging to a breed which gives
milk low in percentage of butter fat
will impart that quality to his heifers.
3. 1t is not possible to increase the
percentage Of butter fat in milk by
feeding food rich in fat, although that
is the general idea with hosts Of farm.
ers.
4. A food rich in protein increases
the quantity but not the quality of the
milk. But by inducing the COW to give
larger quantity we may also induce
her to yield more butter tat in "a hours
than she otherwise would have done.
5. Sudden changes in the time Of
feeding or character of the food, or
sudden changes in the temperature, or
exposure of the COW to cold transforms,
or to brutal usage-all these affect the
percentage of butter fat in milk. It
may be mentioned also that some milk
ers affect cows favorabTy or unfavor-
ably in this respect.
6. The milk of a COW does not, as
rule, reach its highest richness until
after she has had her calf.
7. Milking three times in "a hours
has been found to increase somewhat
the amount of butter fat production
8. For the consumption of infants
the milk of herd of COWS is safer and
more digestible than that of a single
COW, for the reason that it is less liable
to variation from nervousness and
other caUses.-Hoard's Dairyman.

with a lid, clamped securely in place
by simply raising the handle to lift
the bucket All that is needed to
make connection is the mere hanging
of the bucket on the pipe above the
COW by a hook attached to the milk
pail for that purpose, as shown in the
cut This is an ordinary pail with
tight lid and glass peepholes down the
sides So thai the milk can be seen. A
rubber tube runs to the cups attached
to the cows teats. Between the cups
is valve and chamber about the size
of hens egg which really consti-
tutes the effective part of the machine.
The machine is set to work by
simple turn of the valve and the sue
tion holds it in place until the milk
ing is finished The valves and the
cups weigh about two pounds and one
man can use four or five of them to
advantage in a large dairy. The ma
chine is cleansed by passing cold wa
ter through the hose and tubes a few
moments. All parts of the bucket may
be cleansed with brush. The cups
are new and novel in their action.
They are so CONSTRUCTED that they
collapse at the top first and thus COM
press the base of the teat and strip
the milk, as by hand. 1t requires from
two and one-half to ten minutes to
milk a COW. With proper equipment
one man can readily handle so. The
makers claim a COW may be milked
perfectly clean and there is no ten
dency to dry up the flow of milk

Some Useful Churning Hint..

Should you use the old-fashioned
dasher churn you are annoyed by the
cream, milk and butter splashing out
at the top, where the dasher handle
goes through. This may be avoided
by melting the bottom off Of a small
fruit or baking powder can and plac-
ing it over the handle of the dasher.
It rests on the lid of the churn and
catches all the splash" and conducts
it back into the churn. If you only
have one pound of butter per weel,
to sell, don't take it to market in a
shapeless mass. A mold is cheap and
pays for itself in a short time. Peo-
pie like to buy attractive butter, and

the early part of the year 1902 had
been sufferer from kidney troubles
for many years. The pain in my back
became worse and worse until it was a
daily burden that interfered with every
duty. 1 was much afflicted with head
aches and dizzy spells and was unable
to rest well nights. In May 1902 after
using Doan's Kidney Pills I made a
statement for publication declaring
that they had entirely relieved me Of
the pain In my back. Ihave since then
had years time in which to study the
effects of the medicine, and while l
have had slight touches of the trouble
since, the use of the pills has always
driven away all signs of the disorder
and I have become convinced of the
fact that the first treatment was prac-
tically permanent in its effects, and
know that box of Doan's Kidney Pills
kept on hand is a sufficient guarantee
against any suffering from the kidneys
or back I should advise every sufferer
to take Doan's Kidney Pills, and know

CHICAGO'S BIG FETE.
Centennial Celebrating the Permanen
Settlement of the CITY.

Chicago's Centennial Jubilee, to
be given this fall, is beginning to
attract attention throughout the
Western states. From Sept. 26 to
Oct. l the city will be the scene of a
series Of municipal fetes such as
have been equaled onls in the days
of the Romans.
Two of the most popular features
on the program will be the military
parade for President Roosevelt, and
a vivid reproduction of the burning
of Chicago.
The parade will include United
States troops from the forts of the
West, the state militia, crack regi-
ments from different parts of the
country, and other uniformed or
carnations.
In the mimic confagration, five
hundred tons of Roman fire will be
ignited simultaneously on the tops
of the taller buildings within the
area burned by the great fire of
1871. The skyscrapers will be
especial vantage grounds for the
display, and from the DeKoven
street home of the famous Mrs.
|OLeary, where the great fire start
| ed, there will be a big flight of
bombs.
In one of the parks there will be
reproduction of Fort Dearborn,
built in 1903. This was the first
white man s building in the city,
and it is to commemorate it's con-
struction that the jubilee is held.
Four hundred Indians, descendants
of the tribes that once lived in Chi
cago, will hold camp about the fort
and will make daily attack on it.
The structure also will be the scene
of reunion of the scattered pio-
neers of the city.
An industrial parade at night,
brilliantly Illuminated and contain
ing many handsome floats, will be
another spectacle. There also will
be superb fireworks, automobile
races, swimming races and water

general favorite in Sleepy Eye so
ciety. He developed a fondness
for good clothes, but in other re-
spects was not noticeably extrava-
giant, never indulging in liquor to
excess and being free from other
expensive vices.
"He was with Arveson three
years and during that time, as far
as can be learned, received no &C
tual wages. At odd times his en-
ployer would present him with a
few dollars, but there was no stated
emoluments, and this, tits believed,
compelled Fletcher to take money
which did not belong to him. While
there can be no excuse for this the
fact still remains that Arveson is
not so much out of pocket as would
at nrSt appear. Fletcher S defalca-
tons, if such they are, extend over
so long period that at most they
amount to only fair salary.
Then, too, a portion of Arveson S
losses are covered by the jewelry
stock which he attached atSanborn.
Regarding his affairs at the last

he knows nothing of the goods be-

without consulting him."
