VIKING.

We deeply regret that Mr.. Rud got
the impression from the article we
wrote some time ago about "Silo's and
Dairying." that we were opposed to
t. improving the dairy stock. We as
| sure Mr. Rud that this is not the fact.
On the contrary. we are ready to DO
anything to better our financial con-
dition individually as we'll as tor our
trOther farmers in general. But
what we were, and are, little afraid
Of. is that of going into the expense
OF buying high priced sires, and not
having the proper feed, so as to nave
one thing correspond with the other
But from what MI. Rud states in lis
article, we can now have silage with
out the silo.
Very we'll, we are glad of it, but
excuse us, we can not help but think
that silo would be the more ideal
thing, and perhaps the cheapest in the
end, because, there is always more or
less waste in i stack but in silo
there is no waste, providing it is
properly built.
Regarding the statement oy Mr..
Rud, that cows jaw is cheaper
cutter than corr-cutter, We beg par
don, but can not very we'll agree to.
Comparatively young, both in age
ard as farmer we have nevertheless
noticed-and surely Mr.. Rud has done
the same. that COWS, or in fact, stock
of any kind, do like the fine and short
rcughage much better than the more
coarse stuff. We wonder if this does
not apply to corn fodder as we'll.
After reading the article by Mr..
E'ngelstad, "Sila*e Without Silo," I
join in with Mr.. Rud when he says
that, I'VE are lots nearer the de-
s"ribed condition than our correspon-
dent Thinks with just little modi-
fication, and that is, we are a little
nearer" but not lots. In conclusion
permit us to quote the following from
''Sjlage Without Silo:"
Before leaving the subject, / would
make comparison between the silo
and the stack.
Most farmers who have had expert
ence in doing chores, know the differ
'ence in having hay in the barn and
outside the barn at all seasons, one
point in favor of the silo. The out.
side ring, about inches deep, rots
and goes to waste in the stack, while
it is utilized in the silo as there is
no waste there, -another point in
favor of the silo." 1 @'a' .,....G
Wishing Mr.: Rud good success in
organizing the association, we shall
feel pleased to receive an invitation
to join it, providing it does not inter.
fere too much with our financial abil.

which may have accumulated on the
farm or in the home. Anything you
have to offer may be sold at auction or
private sale at your option. A good
auctioneer and clerk will be provided
and paid for by the club. The plan Of
the club is simply to bring buyer and
seller together.
The committee is in communication
with all the leading horse buyers and
will lend every effort to have as many
Of them present market days as posi-

THE GIRLS CHORUS.

Teachers examination at the high
school Friday and Saturday.
Vacation next week.
High school declamatory contest to
morrow (Friday) evening 30. Music
will be furnished by the high school
choruses and the quartette.
That the rhetOricals are appreciated
was shown again last Friday afternoon,
when the room ,-as filed with interested
visitors, Expressions Of appreciation
We're heard on all sides, and there were
many pleasing signs Of interest on the
part Of the lower classes. The young
people all performed their parts with
credit to the school, and the feeling was
quite commonly expressed that there is
a Iargeamount of talent i'll the high
school.
The girls chorus made their first ap
pearance in public and were thoroughly
enjoyed by all. All the girls who can
afford the time should belong to the
chorus, as the training is exceedingly
valuable. Nora Humbert was not able
to take part on account of sickness.
Marguerite Weise and Elsie Springer
seemed to be very much at home at the
piano, and held the closest attention of
every one in the room. Wearne Har
wick did not give a reading as the pro
gram called for but instead he surpris
ed he surprised and delighted the school
by playing a selection on the violin, ac-
compani9d by Mrs. Harwick On being
called back, Wearne proceeded to sur
prise as well as please the school by
singing a song. We did not catch all
the words of the song, but it was some
thing about Every little bit helps.
The parliamentary practice was well
worked out and proved to be very pop
ular. Besides bringing out several
points of parliamentary law, it develo-
ped into a first class debate, and was
carried through with as much dignity
as if Speaker Cannon had been in
Harry's place This work is of vital
Importance, especially for the young
men. The struggle in the parliamenta
ry drill was over a resolution to censure
President Taft and Secretary Knox for
the manner in which Mr.. Knox entered
the cabinet. The resolution was finally
amended to censure congress instead Of
Taft and Knox, and then the resolution
was tabled. The remarks brought out
many points of interest in regard to the
two men.
Mr.. Anderson is always appreciated
by the school, and he had abundant
proof that his piano playing strikes a
popular chord
Recent visitors in the high school are
Ina Martin, 98, Mabel Matson, O5,
Ella Richards, 'O8, Frank Mcneil, 'O8.
John Mccormick, of the Junior class
has had a serious time with pneumonia,
but is around agRin and we look for him
to be in his place after vacation.
Professor Seymour, one of the most
popular lecturers in the country, who is
at present delivering a course of 1ect-
ures at Platteville, gave the high school
his lecture on Joan of Arc this morn
ing. We shall hope to have him deliver
a course of lectures here some time in
the future.

GREATNESS.
Judge William SpensIey Lectures
on the Life and Character of
the Great En- mancipator.

Judge William Spensley lectured i'll
the Methodist Episcopal church of this
city on last Sunday evening, His sub
ject was Abraham Lincoln " The lee
ture was interesting and instructive, and
was most favorably received by all who
had the pleasure of listening to it. The
lecturer portrayed III well chosen Ian
guage the life and character of the
beloved Lincoln. He said that Abra
ham Lincoln was great as a lawyer, rs
an orator, as a logician, rs President,
and great in his love for his fellow
men. In many ways he illustrated and
substantiated his claims for Lincoln's
greatness in all these respects. In calm
and impassiOned speech the lecturer
told of LincOln's great heart and great
mind, and how he met and solved great
problems of government, and how he
had many times by his invincible logic,
rebutted the sophistries of his would be
advisers. Judge Spensley closed his
lecture by saying that although Lincoln
had affiliated with no church he was
christian whose faith in the ordering of
divine providence was firm and endur-
ing. The lecturer said that he believ-
ed that Abraham Lincoln was called of
God to the great mission of freeing our
land from human slavery.

The largest yield near Cherokee was

the crop before it was harvested at
81 % a bushel
George Beltz has 100 acres west
