Crops, Cost of Filling SilO, Effect OF
SiIaEe on MIX Flavor.
Corn silage is. as a rule the most
economical succulent food that can be
obtained for dairy cows at a season
when pasture is not available. Al
though not balanced ration IN itself,
1t tends to heavy milk production and
economical milk can be made by feed
ing corn silage and legume hay with.
out the use of much grain.
BY helping the pasture out during dry
periods with partial soiling more stock
can be carried on a given area than by
pasturing alone. No crop will furnish
more feed to the acre than corn, and
with the silo this can be utilized for
soiling.
In Illinois corn seems to be the best
single crop for the silo, and by combin-
ing with it cowpeas or soy beans the
feeding value is greater ton for ton,
than of corn alone.
When corn Is fully tasseled it CON
tains less than one-fourth as much dry
matter as when the ears are fully
glazed. From this stage to maturity
the increase is but slight
That silage may keep well the corn
should not be cut until most of the kerr
nels are glazed and hard If too ripe
the silage will not settle we'll and the
air will not be sufficiently excluded to
prevent spelling.
The corn is most easily handled by
cutting with corn binder and using q
silage cutter of large enough capacity
to avoid the necessity of cutting bands.
If silage is 10 keep well the leaves
and heavier parts must be kept thor.

silo and well tramped next the wall
After filling. the top six inches should
be wet once and the whole surface
tramped every day for a week to oh
tain thin, compact layer of well
rotted Silage which will exclude the air
Records of the cost of Silo filling

parts of the state, and the cost was
found to range from 40 cents to &c

"Chamois" skins.

Charles c. Druedling has written an
article in the Journal of Pharmacy on
chamois skins. The commercial article
of that name, he says, Is really oil
tanned sheep or lamb skin lining. The
supply of skins from the channels ami
NAL is very limited. Enough could not
be obtained in year to supply the
United States for more than single
day. He made special inquiry on a
visit to Switzerland about the annual
crop of the chamois skins and ascer-
tanned that from 5000 to 6,000 skins
would be a fair average yearly crop
This skin is heavier than the skin of
the sheep or lamb, also much coarsec
For strength and durability the cham
OILS skin is preferable, but for ordi-
nary use and appearance the oil tanned
sheepskiu lining would in most in
stances be preferred.

General Joseph Wheeler.
Greensboro Industrial News.


General Joseph Wheeler is dead.
Amidst his friends and relatives the
sturdy old soldier passed peacefully
away last week.
And what career has been his. A
prominent figure in two great wars
he in each case accepted his duty as
he saw it and shirked not the task
that lay before him.
AS q cavalry leader in the cival war
he did valiant service for the Confed
eracy, and then when peace came he
put aside his sword, but continued
to serve his State
In the halls OF Congress during
many years he was q CONSPICUOUS
figure. And then when the call to
arms was sounded and a foreign foe
threatened the country the grizzled
old veteran again took up his sword
and in the uniform Oft United States
brigadier went forth to battle. On
the hills and plains grounding San
tiago he was ever most potent and
commanding figure. But now he is
gone. The gray uniform of the Con-
IeOeracy ana the blue OF Jhe Union
are for him forever laid aside. The
sound of drum and the rattle of mus
kerry are hushed and still and the
voice OF command is silent.
But around the bier in comming-
ling folds should be draped old glory
and the bonny blue flag. For both
were dear to his heart. Both repre-
sent the duty which he saw and fol-
lowed. And their bright stars and
stripes and bars tell of a life in which
fear held no part.

State Fair a Disgrace to the State.
Pittsboro Record.

Pittsboro Record
The next State Fair will be held the
week beginning Oct. 10Th, and we
hope that the Press OF the State will
in due time demand a positive and
satisfactory assurance and guaran-
tee from the authorities in charge
that they will not admit and permit
such immoral gangs and scenes as
disgraced our last State Fair
We had better have no fair than
to have another like the last, and the
moral sentiment OF the State should
be able with the help OF the Press to
prevent a repetition OF the scenes
that disgraced the last fair at Raj
eigh. Such a horde of gamblers and
dissolute characters of both sexes
as attended our last State Fair had
never before assembled in our good
old State, and we hope never will
again. They can be excluded and
ought to be.
Our State Fairs ought to be en-
couraged and can be OF great benefit
to all classes of our people in many
ways, but we hope never to have
another like the last. And the way
to prevent it is for the Press of the
State to demand with one voice that
some positive and satisfactory as
surance be given that we will have a
decent fair.

STOCK FOOD SWINDLE.
Wheat Bran, Etc. Favored and Scent
ed and Sold at from $500 to $4,000
Ton.

Charlotte Chronicle.
The Raleigh Progressive Farmer
sounds a note of warning to the
farmers of the South about what it
calls the stock food swindle. 1t says
that one of the most outrageous
frauds now being perpetrated upon
the American farmer is that OF pre-
pared stock foods-cOmmOn meal,
bran, etc, with little cheap sulphur,
salt, Epson salts, pepper, saltpeter,
etc, added to change the taste, and
the mixture (hardly more valuable
than ship stuff pvt up in flaming
packages, advertised in big illustra-
ted ads in farm papers and sold to
gullible farmers at from $500 to
$4,000 ton" The Progressive
Farmer says further, that some time
ago, the chief Southern contributor
of one of the farm papers most large
ly circulated in North Carolina and
adjoining States, wrote an exposure
of the whole miserable fraud and sent
it to his paper. The reply came back:
"The Blank Stock Food Company
pays us $4,000 a year for advertis-
ing, and we would lose it if we were
to print your letter. Please don't
insist" 1t is quite proper that while
the patent medicine nOstrums are
getting a drubbing, the stock food
humbugs should be exposed and this
the Progressive Farmer proposes to
do. If the frauds are the nature COM
planned of, we hope the exposure will
be sufficient to protect the farmers
against them.

North Carolina Should Be Represent
ed at Jamestown.
New Bern Journal.

New Bern Journal.
The message of Governor Warfield
to the Maryland Legislature, special
ly that portion of it which refers to
the jamestown Exposition, and the
fact that the previous legislature had
passed a resolution, authorizing him
to appoint commission to represent
the State and to make suggestions
concerning a suitable and proper
representation of Maryland, is OF in
terest to North Carolina, for the re-
lations between Virginia and North
Carolina are certainly as close as
those existing between Maryland and
Virginia, therefore if the Maryland
legislature declares for suitable rep
resentation at the jamestown Elk
position on May 13, 1907, the Old
North State should be fully, if not
more pronounced in its efforts to
have its representatives at the Ex-
position.
In closing his message on the Ex-
position, Governor Warfield, says:
1t is, therefore, eminently fitting and
proper that Maryland should have an
adequate building and exhibit OF its his
torical, educational and industrial
achievements and resources that will be
creditable to us ali. The Government
Of the United States has made substan-
tial appropriation and the President has
deemed it OF such Importance as to merit
special reference in his message to Con-
gress. New York, Pennsylvania and
New Jersey have decided to participate,
New York having appropriated $780,
900 for building and exhibit and Penn
sylvania 100000. OF all expositions
ever held in this country, it will be of the
largest direct and practical Importance
to Maryland. l therefore heartily rec
ommend a liberal appropriation for
Maryland representation at the James
town Exposition.
North Carolina ought to take ac-
ton which shall give it suitable
representation next year at the
jamestown exposition.
