Why BuiId a stIo,


The silo enables us to preserve 1
greater quantity of the food materials
of the original fodder, for the feedius
of farm animals than is possible by any
other system of preservation now
known. The necessary loss of nutrients
incurred in the SLIDING process need net
exceed 10 per cent, and by beginning
to feed from the silo soon after it has
been filled, The loss will be reduced to
minimum which may not be far from
per cent In hay-making or field.
curing of coarse folders, there Is 80
unavoidable loss of leaves and Other
tender parts, and in curing fodder corp
there will be a Preventative loss ~
nearly 20 per cent under the best 81
conditions, or about as much as Is lost
in the silo. The loss of dry matter
will approach % per cent in ordinary
farm practice and will even exceed this
figure unless special precautions arr
taken in the handling of the fodder.
The proper construction of the silo
Is of the greatest Importance. If the
sides of the silo are not alright, too
much air Is admitted and the silags
will spoil. If the walls are not perfect.
" -igid the pressure of the silage will
cause them to spring out. thus allow.
ing air to enter between the silage anil
the wall, and, again, the result is de.
cayed silage.

full attention should be given to loca
ton, size, form and method of con
struction. These will differ somewhat

needs.-Farming.

Sheep are sometimes infested rs
parasites which cause diseases of tbs
skin other than the scab insect. The
so-called Texan mango or itch is caused
by variety of louise known as demo
dex. which infests the dog and all the
canine race, wolves, foxes and all the
related animals which range over the
west and south, and which cause .
watery eruption on the skin, which
forms scabs. This special parasite does
not affect cattle. Another one infests
sheep, cattle and horses, forming scabs
on the skin, but they do not burrow
under, as the scab mite does. The uni.
versal remedy Is to dip the sheep as for
scab, breaking the crusts formed &C
as to reach the parasites and clean the
skin. The common sheep scab dip Ia
the best remedy for this, indeed fol
al this class of skin diseases. BY
dipping regularly twice a year, as \
preventive Of all these diseases com.
plete immunity Is secured. Wheneve,
a sheep is seen to be biting itself n

One of the first plans which was laid
before the Car after the conclusion
Of the war was the gigantic project of
building a tunnel through the eau
casus under the present military
Georgian road running from Vladikav-
kaz to Tifis. This will be the biggest
thing Of it's kline ever attempted, and
the costliest. The total length of the
tunnel, which will be in two divisions.
will be thirty-two milestone division
of fourteen, the other of eighteen miles.
The mountain to be tunneled will be
the famous Gross mountain, and the
tunnel will be entered just within
sight of the peak of Kazbek, the
mountain to which Prometheus was
chained. The tunnel, it is computed,
will take about eighteen to twenty
years to bore, and the total cost vii.
not fall far short of f50,0O0.000. The
strategic advantages of the line will
be enormous. The network of Euro
pean Russian railways will be con-
nected with the Caucasian system and
with the line running to the Persian
frontier. With this tunnel built it
will be possible to move troops from
st. Petersburg to the Persian frontier
in about seven days.
