WHAT DOES JAPAN
PLAN TO DO NOW?
FROM PAGE ONE

Invincible-one-eighth that of the
new Japanese war-creature. The
Chester has made q knots an hour
in practice-a little faster than the
Mauretania.
Two great problems are put up
to the United States navy by the
announcement of the mikado S
advisers. One is that of naval con
struction. The other-What will
Japan do with her fighting ma
chine?
Such giant would cost nearly
$40 900 ,0)0-enough to found and
endow a university.
Never before have warships
been improved so rapidly. The ship
just completed lacks new features
of the successor already designed.
In the Delaware and the North
Dakota this government thought
that it had tsopped the Dread
naught fever for all time.
Both ships are splendid fight
ing machines. They are equipped
with new basket masts" made OF
a steel network that would resist
an hours heavy firing. They have
smaller military masts that could
take care of regiment of ma
rines with small arms. Wireless
telegraph, smoke consumers, rap
idrevolying turrets and compile
ment of torpedoes and submarines
will be carried. They had every
thing but speed
was thought.
What does Japan intend to d.
with her big cruiser?
To every nation in the world thi
question is formidable. Big battle
ships are intended to harass tn,
war fleets of other nations, but hi,
cruisers are built to destroy thei
commerce.

WILL SHAVE BIG
e@CITY BUDGET

The opposition that has ariSsn
over the $1,435, S54.47 budget Of the
city council for 1910 has had It's
effect, and this enormous tidal viii
be materially shaved befphe khe
final seal Of approval is placed on
the appropriations on October 4 and
the tax levy fixed for the coming
year. N krss
Captain John Gray. councilman
from the Second ward, who thinks a
total appropriation and tax levy
about the size of last years, with
an allowance to cover the existing
deficits added, will be good enough,
today says that he finds the mem
bers of council favorable to the idea
of economy. -. > ?
Captain Gray says: "The only
additional, appropriation over last
year that l think is necessary is
to take care of the deficits that
have already occurred and will be
increased before the present year
is out. We are asked to appropri-
ate $4,000 for deficiencies, but |
understand that the deficit now is
over 100000, and that it may go to
$150,000 before the coming of 1910.
Give the departments enough
money to carry them through this
year and then hold them down to
the fixed appropriation for the com
ing year"
In Seattle the plan pursued in
holding the departments to fixed
sum for their years operation is to
make monthly allowance or appro-
priation at the beginning Of each
month for that months business. In
this way the council retains check
on expenditures and the deficits are
reduced to a minimum.

STARVING HIMSELF TO
DEATH

1t begins to appear as il John
Glindermann, the insane butcher
who choked his wife to death, is,
through remorse of conscience or
some insane notion, slowly starv-
ing himself to death.
Glindermann has been in the
county Jail two weeks, during
which time the only solid food he
has permitted to pass his lips was
some crackers, on one occasion. He
has swallowed some beef tea, but
seems to care little for food of any
kind.
He sepnds his time lying on the
floor of his coll, and seems the best
pleased whJn permitted to lie there
undisturbed.

In addition to this some of the

Feeding silage.

Quite number Of practical feeders
have adopted the silage method. One
man in particular having large stock
farm in Ohio puts up annually be-
tween $500 and 5000 tons of corn and
cowpea silage, which he feeds to his
beef cattle. A 1,0O0-pound steer will
usually consume about so pounds Of
silage per day. When fed ration of
this kind, some heterogeneous food
should be added, such as oil meal, cot
tonseed meal or other concentrated
products found on the market. The
feeder from Ohio referred to feeds on
an average about 5 pounds of cotton
seed meal per day to his steers and
about pounds of clover hay, in addi-
ton to the so pounds of silage. For
beef cattle it is usually considered adj
visable to allow the crop to mature
before cutting, and also to plant it the
same as one plants for grain produc-
ton. The cattle feeder is not partic-
ularly anxious to obtain large
amount of forage, but he is more anx-
ious to get as much corn as possible.
A crop of corn that will produce about
so bushels per acre will make from
eight to nine tons of silage planted in
the usual way and harvested when
mature. 1t is stated by feeders who
are using silage, and similar reports
have come from stations, that cattle
fed on this produce scour less than
when fed on corn and dry roughage.

At the average rate of twenty BUSH
els of wheat per acre (Which is much
less than the average yield of either
Germany, or England) 1.-THE State of ILL
nois, with a few Indiana counties
thrown in for good measure, cultivated
exclusively to wheat, would produce
annually more Of this product than
does the entire country. If Ohio and
Iowa's 1854 square miles of improved
land Census 1900, with 1858
square mile strip of Kansas, should
be planted in corn, there would be
harvested with an acreage yield of
fifty bushels, 1922, 144,0OO bushels, an
amount practically equal to the total
1906 corn, crop of the United States,
Canada and Mexico. rsl.D y b
With the 10,615,644 acres Of

4x4-foot chute. This should extend the
entire length of silo and have small
windows both at the top and bottom.
The hay chute is 5x5 feet square and
has door at the floor line for forklng
out hay. The chute is of sufficient size
for feeding stock If barn is full. me
silo and hay chute are boarded up
tight to prevent dust, dirt or doors
from entering the COW barn. The loft
floor should be made tight for the
same reason, and If made double with
tar paper between it will be better.
The construction of the calf and
bull pens, also the box stall, should be
such that the animals may readily see
the other animals in the barn. They
enjoy company as we'll as human be-
ings do, and many an otherwise good
tempered animal has been rendered
unsafe by being placed in solitary con-
finement. The milk room is handy to
the cow stalls and has both an interior
and exterior exit. The door leading
into the barn should be closed at all
times. The interior arrangement is
such that one attendant can feed and
care for the stock, in a short time; a
point not to be overlooked in this day
of high-priced labor. An 8 or 1O-foot
opening should be left in the loft floor
over the driveway for passing up hay,
etc. The grain and bran bins are To-
Gated over the feed room and the feed
drawn through S-inch wood spouts
and mixed in the feed room. The
driveway, also the space between the
feed room and COW stalls, may be used
a portion OF the year for tools or a
wagon. The floor above the drive
way should be IL or II feet high; the
floors over the pens and cow stalls
should be Z feet high, and those over
the box stall and horse stalls should
be 8 feet high. This arrangement pro-

Hogs and Fences.

Lean, lank hogs and poor fences will
discourage almost any farmer who has
such combination. With animals
that will multiply as rapidly as pigs
it seems almost shame to see a man
breeding old scrub sows to some boar
that has no pride of ancestry or hope,
of posterity. Yet this is exactly the
course that about half of the farmers
are following, and wondering why
feeding hogs is not paying substantial
profits. Never get the idea in your
heads that breeding from. young and
immature breeding stock. encourages
early maturity in the progeny Good,
strong, well-developed pigs from ma
ture sires and dams will make better
growth and more economical gains
than the understood runts that, result
from breeding immature soWs. to some
6-months-old boar pig. yyaD3a

chard. The fowls will destroy thou
sands of harmful insects, thus greatly
beneflting the trees and increasing the
prospects for fruit and the fowls will
at the same time gain great comfort
and benefit by the protecting shade of
the trees. Plum trees and cherry trees
are especially benefited by the pres
ence of fowls about their roots. Peach
trees will grow most rapidly and soon-
est give an abundant shade.

A farmer near Rock Island! ILL.,,
was cleveriy swindled out of $25 by a
smooth stranger who claimed to be
the game warden. The farmer was
hunting on his own farm when ap-
preached and asked if he had a hunt
ing license. He had not, and the man
said he was not excused by being on
his own farm and that he would ar
rest him. This did not please the
farmer, and he finally gave the fellow
$25 as bail. When he appeared in
court the next morning he i met the
real game warden, but not his money.
