cl Smith, the 10 year old girl who
recently shot and killed Elmer Briggs.
while the latter was trying to force
an entrance into her fathers house
whore Briggs wife and children were
staying, was placed on trial today to
answer to charge Of manslaughter.
The defense will probably attempt to

life of his wife and that It was to

fired the fatal shot. The further
fact that Briggs was seeking to break

1t is an immense straight sid.
ed barrel, some IS TO 20 feet in
diameter and 25 to 80 feet deep,
in which green corn and other
crops are preserved for winter
feeding. This corn is cut fine
and well packed and keeps SO
well that all manner of farm
stock thrive on it all winter. One
will cost from $50 up, depending
on the material and workman
ship.
The advantages of the silo on
the Missouri farm are.
1st. Silage keeps young
stock thrifty and growing all

2ud. 1t produces fat beef
more cheaply than does dry feed.

duce milk and butter more econ
omically.

lent to handle than dry fodder.
9TH. The silo prevents the
waste of the corn stalks which
contains about ID the food value
of the entire crop.

sth. 1t enables a larger mum
Der of animals to be maintained
on a given number of acres.
9th. It enables the farmer TO
preserve food, (such as cowpeas)

the year when drying would be
next to impossible.
10th. In the southern sec
tions where the winter storms
are in the form Of rain and de.
stroys the exposed fodder the
silo will be as good as a good
