have sold some and we cannot agree on
the cubic feet in a ton"
number OF different conditions. For
example, the depth OF the silo. the
diameter. the condition OF the corn
when put into the silo, etc. Professor
King in his book on THE Physics of
Agriculture" gives a table showing the
computed weight of well matured corn
silage at different distances below the
surface and the computed feed weight
for silos at different depths two days
after filing. In the case of a silo 10
feet deep is given as 1871 pounds per
cubic foot, and the average weight for
all the silage in the silo down to 10
feet 26.1 pounds per cubic foot. For
a silo 10 feet deep the weight Of the
silage at the fifteenth foot is 40 pounds
per cubic foot, while the average
weight of all Of the Is feet of silage Is
1913 pounds per cubic DOT. For 20 feet
deep the weight Of the silage at 20 feet
age weight of all the silage in the 20
feet is 1873 pounds per cubic foot. AT
80 feet the weight of the si!age at that
depth is 1914 pounds per cubic foot
while the weight Of all the silage in tho
silo of hi depth is 1916 pounds per
cubic foot.
A silo 20 feet deep and Is feet in
diameter will hold 1884 tons. A silo
so feet deep and 15 feet in diameter
lO5 tons. In the above our correspond
ent can find enough information to en-
able him to figure out the weight
which should be allowed in his own
particular case.

A Shrewd Parson,
From the washington Star

a ~ ASAA oSoh
George b. Cortelyou. the secretar1
of the treasury, was talking at a din
ner about the recent panic.
There's a story about a we'll known
railroad man in the panic that is al
most too good" said Mr.. Cortelyou,
This man is kind hearted, INC he was
deeply moved by a Letter that a country
parsor wrote him when things were
looking their worst:
THE letter ran like this:
"Dear Sir: AS the pastor OF -
church my aim has always been in.
vestment and not speculation. Re-
garding YOU railroad as a sound bust
ness institution. solid as a rock. in 1904
I purchased 400 of it's shares at 1O6,
sinking my little all in them and a
great deal more. They nave now
fallen to So, and 1 am undone. My
congregation l cannot face as a bank
rupt, and at my age-72 years years
what am l to do? throw myself upon
your mercy
Well" said Mr.. Cortelyou, "the
banker read this letter several times
and each time his pity for the poor old
parson increased. Finally. calling in
his s~tenographer. he wrotes to the man
that, considering all the painful cir
cumstances of the case. he would him.
self buy back the 400 shares at LOG, the
price the parson had paid for them.
Immediately on receipt of this gen.
erous letter the parson wired to his
brokers:
Buy 400 Dash Railways at 55. and
send same round to Dash's president
who will give you LOG for them"

An Appeal to MilIionaires.

From the Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin.
The shocking death of William H..
Marsh, of Brooklyn, which was predicted
several days ago. took place yesterday
afternoon. Marsh had been bitten by q
pet dog afflicted with rabies. AT first he
paid no attention to the matter. After
long delay the development of nervous
symptoms led him to apply fer treatment
at the Pasteur institute. But the authori.
ties there declined to receive him as a
patient. saying that the time had gone by
when anything that could be administered
to him would effect a cure.
The man went home Immediately with
the truth Of the declaration that his NAL
ady was beyond nope and that he would
die within q ~hours-and he did, his suffer-
ings being mitigated by frequent doses OF
morphine and ~hyoscyamine. The symptoms
We're Intermittent commissions OF the
larynx. acute difficulty in swallowing, stiff,
fleming of the muscles. and finally paraly-
sis and coma. Between the commissions
the patients mind was clear, and he
talked as calmly of his disorder, as if the
victim were a third person. During the
last hours he was unconscious.
So marvellous have been the successes
of science in the discovery of anti-toXins
for diseases that one would be rash who
should set q limit to the possibilities OF
this quest. What Pasteur has contributed
toward the relief of victims of the rabies,
and the powerlessness of his treatment in
the sad case of Mr.. Marsh, might we'll
stimulate further research. Here is an
object we'll worthy of liberal expenditures

The Character of Labor Has Improved
From the New York Tirnez

From the New York Times.
A peculiar and unexpected, though east
ly comprehensive. result of the hard
times and business depression Is re-
ported in the shape of a marked advance
IN the efficiency of the men who are still
employed. Now that jobs are
lively hard to get. the man who has one
does his best. or at least his much bet
ter, to convince his employer that he is
worth keeping. and his output Of labor
and amount OF production have both

the days when discharge -7as something

Roughly stated by one observer. this
member OF a big contracting firm. 60 men
now do as much as 100 did formerly, with
a corresponding reduction in the cost Of
the work done. This. in many cases. has
changed what had seemed to be a losing
contract into a profitable one, and has
made possible the continuance of opera-
tons that otherwise would have had to
stop.
Looking deeper into the matter, one gets
| some new light on the petty reasons SO
often given in the pas. as justification of
the worker who did not exert himself to
his fullest capacity. This, it was said
was for altruistic reasons-in order that
there might be work enough to go round
and one should be left without employ-
| ment. Apparently an ever stronger areu.
ment along these lines could now be made,
but, II the facts are as stated. the ~inclina.

Announcement.

I hereby announce my candidacy
for the Republican nomination for
meber Of the Hsuse of Representa-
tives of the Legislative Assembly of
the state Of North Dakota for the 10Th
District at the primary election to be
held on June 24A, 1908.
l have no particular pet theories,
except that l am Republican Sc
cause believe that no other party
has written so many glorious pages
of history as the party of Lincoln and
l believe 1t is today the party of the
people as it was at the beginning.
I also believe that Theodore Roose-
welt is a worthy successor to the noble
line of his predecessors. I also believe
that the Republican party is the
party Of Progress and achievement,
a party Of young men and men not
afraid to meet responsibility.
II nominated and elected, I shall
endeavor to carry out the Republican
party principles as interpreted by
Theodore Roosevelt during the past
seven years. I believe that today
there is rising tide in human
thought which tends to honesty and
a square deal to every man. and If
elected, I shall endeavor to promote
the enactment OF just laws and an &C.
onomical administration Of the state
affairs. The Ward county farmer is
almost universally the owner Of the
farm he tills. He should dominate
and control the political and econo-
mical affairs of the district because he
is the mainstay and upon him the
burden Of taxation must fall heavily.
For some reason the farmers taxes
are unreasonably high and am in
favor Of our state revenue laws, the
creation Of tax commission to the
end that all classes Of property be
taxed fairly and honestly.
l believe that the permanent and
substantial growth Of this region
justifies the belief that instead Of
making large appropriation for the
enlargement Of the normal schools
now in state, Minot should have a
we'll equipped and up to date normal
school: that 1t is the duty of the
next Legislative Assembly to take
the necessary steps to bring this
about. II nominated and elected, I
pledge myself to subordinate other
matters to the carrying out of this
idea.
II successful, l shall consider 1t q
paramount duty clearly entailed to be
always active and vighant in season
and cut Of season to safeguard the
rights Of an the people Of the 18th
