The Ohio experiment station has been
esting the value of ensilage as fed to
dairy cows. When over half the dry
matter in the feed was contained in the
ensilage fed there was more than dou-
BILE the net profit that there was when
most of the feed was in grain. The
ensilage produced both u greater
amount of milk and higher test than
where hay and grain were fed. Are not
many of Il Iowa farmers about ready
TO put up silos and thereby winter their
stock at so much less cost than by
the present method? Keep your mind
open to consideration of this subject.

Water the dairy cows at least twice
every day. The chill should be taken
off the water, and the animals should
not be hurried. Sometimes a COW is
rushed away from the tank before she
has really as much as she needs.

Cows Of the same weight do NOT al
ways consume the same amount OF
food. Some may be wasteful eaters
and some nave finical appetites. one
must watch these COWS and get then
to going right.

1t has been found that scours in
calves is caused by fermentation in the
milk. 1t is almost impossible to keep
milk chemically pure, but good results
are obtained by adding formalin to the
milk, at once after separation. in the
proportion of one part to 1000 parts of
milk. This may be obtained by pouring
0.5 ounce of formalih into 1916 ounces
of water. inc ~teaspoonful of this solu-
ton is added to each pint of milk fed
the affected calf.

and 81 200 respectively; and of provid-
ing for the advancement of clerks and
carriers in first class offices from the
5000 initial grade to $500 after one
years service, to 5000 after two years
service, to $1,000 after three years
service, and for the advancement of
clerks and carriers in second class Of
fees to $500 after one years service
and to 5000 after two years service.
The proposed plan leaves to the
department the distribution of promo
tons, based on efficiency, above the
$1,000 grade in first-class offices and
above the 5000 grade in second-class
Offices, the extent of such promotion
being limited, of course, by the ap-
preparations provided.
"The main features of the salary
plan just outlined" says the report,
"are, first, the establishment of the
clerical and carrier service on ex-
actly the same footing as to rate Of
compensation and opportunity for pro-
motions; second, the enforcement of
the important principle that promo
tons in both services shall be made
only on satisfactory evidence of eff
ffciency; and, third, the creation Of
certain grades above the maximum
salaries reached by annual progress
sion that can be utilized by the depart
ment to adjust salaries In accordance
with varying local conditions"
1t is proposed to grant thirty days
annual leave to postoffice clerks and
carriers, instead of fifteen days, as
at present.
Mr.. Hitchcock also urged that suf-
ficient number Of clerks be employed
to keep the work day as near eight
hours as possible.
Suspensions of employees are not
favored by Mr.. Hitchcock and he urges
that this system of Furnishing infrac-
tons of regulations be abolished.
There will be submitted with the re-
! port of Mr.. Hitchcock draft of a bill
embodying the various features of the
plan for the regulation Of salaries, the
annual leave, and the hours of serv-
| ice of postoffice employees.

HITCHCOCK SAYS MAIL CLERKS
SHOULD GETA square DEAL"

Associated Press to The Evening Tlmes.
Washington, Jan. 3.-Failure at this
time to increase materially the COM
pensation of postoffice employees, thus
keeping pace with the advancing
wages in other lines of employment,
will seriously jeopardize the efficiency
in the service.
This statement is taken from the
annual report of First Assistant Post
master General Hitchcock just made
public. The need of new legislation
to make the postal service more at
tractive Is treated extensively by Mr.
Hitchcock.
Higher wages in other classes of
employment taken with the increased
cost of living, have rendered pronounce
ed the inadequacy of postoftice salar-
les. AS result the designations from
the service have increased at an alarm
ing rate. Mr.. Hitchcock's report
shows that in first and second class
Offices there were approximately TO-
900 clerks in the grades ranging from
POVV W PlSVOUs anu VI lLcS6 ClcThS o.
$40, or about 1913 per cent resigned
during the year. OF $4,000 letter car
riers attached to these Offices COL, or
about 2.6 per cent voluntarily left the
service.
Statistics for the quarter ended
September 80 last, and for the month
of October are even more striking.
During the quarter 929 clerks and POS
carriers resigned, while incomplete
returns for October showed the re-
signation of $50 clerks and 81 carriers.
The figures for October last show
that clerks were leaving the servic.
at an annual rate of one in every FIVE
After careful study of the problem
of dividing satisfactory scale of sal
aries applicable to clerks and carriers
alike, this plan has been suggested by
Mr.. Hitchcock: Establishing for both
| of these classes of employees six grades
of compensation, the annual salary
to be $500 for the initial grade, $500
for the second grade, and for the four
succeeding grades 5000, $1,000, $1,1O0

GAS MANTLEs ONLY ASHES.
Invention Due to the Experiments Of
Vienna Chemist.

The gas mantle is nothing but ashes
and it is wonderful how science makes
it's particles cling together as long as
they do.
The gas mantle was invented by q
chemist of Vienna. He noticed the
intense light given out by a small
quantity of thorium thrown into a
stove in his laboratory. He realized
the Importance of the discovery and
in 1880 began series of experiments
to utilize this remarkable quality of
the element in intensifying light. He
found that pure thorium would not
cohere we'll enough to be of use, and
he then began searching for a COM
bination of elements that would an
swer.
In 1887 he produced his first man
ties, but they were so delicate that
they could not be transported, and
were delivered by hand. A boy was
trusted to carry two, one in each
hand, for delivery about the streets Of
Vienna. In the early COS he found
that good mantle could be made
from combination Of the two sub.
stances, thorium oxide and cerium OK.
ide, and that coating of collodion
would give sufficient f1rmness to al
low it to be transported. Since then
gas mantles have gone into general
use in nearly all parts Of the world,
and thousands of factories are pro-
ducfng them.

Safes for Wales.

The number of combination safe,
IN use in Wales is limited. Mans
causes have contributed to this re
suit. In the first place burglary is
not common, and "cracksmen" are
practically unknown. Then, the dan.
ger from fires cannot be great when
practically all the buildings are built
Of stone or brick. Police protec-
ton and fire prevention leave little
to be desired along that line. Last.
ly, the conservative methods and the
economical bent of business men Of
all classes make them satisfied with
lock and key safes, some of very
ancient patterns. Notwithstanding
these facts, there is an opening for
combination safes on account of the
number of new enterprises estab
lished annually, for safe dealers re.
port that they frequently take orders
for such safes. Orsinarily such safes
are made to order, and the cheaper
price of American safes should give
them an advantage with such pur.
:hasers.

to look after it himself. There is a

what wonderful country the north

also how progressive and up-to-date

November Nomenclature.

November was called by the ap-
cjent Saxons the wint monat, or wind
month, on account of the gales the.
prevalent. It was also named the
blot monat, or blood month, from the
ancient practice of then slaughter
ing cattle for the winter provisions.
It is said that the Roman senators
wished to name the month after
Tiberius, as montSs had already been
named after julius Caesar and Au-
gustus, but the emperor, like Canute,
felt chat it was possible to have too
much fiattery and, refused, remark
ing: What will you do, conscript f.
