White PLAINS, \. Y, Aug r. Harr,
Is Thaw's latest attempt To gain his
liberty was defeated today when JUS
tice Isaac n Mills dismissed the writ
Of habeas corpus and declared the
release of petitioner would be dan
gerous to public peace and safety"
An order sending Thaw back to Mat

There is no crumb of comfort for
ThaW in the seven thousand word
decision handed down by Justice Mills
All the contentious Of his old adVer-
siary, District Attorney Jerome are
supported and it Is deciared that Thaw
is still insane, still suffering from per-
sistcnt delusions and still as much a
paranoiac as on the day he shot Stan

forced than real.

The st. Paul women who collected

The st. Paul women who collected
$22, ZOO on lag Day for the anti
tuberculosis cause are deserving of all
praise, as also their sisters of Mime
apolis, who raised a large amount the
same day. The economic loss to the
United States yearly from tuberculosis
is said by students of the matter tc
cover a billion dollars, SO that from
the commercial standpoint the ques-
ton has become of the highest i'm
portance, without considering the
sadder aspects of the scourge. It is
claimed that one tenth of all who die
succumb to tuberculosis and that
eleven-twelfths of those afflicted get it
by contact. DR.. Cabot says that
prevention of tuberculosis is common
sense hygiene, and that campaign
against it is a campaign against all
disease. While the widespread agita-
tion may have caused great dread OF
the disease in some quarters, the good
results have been many. The
campaign of education has awakened
the people. There can be no ques-
tion of the duty of the state to it's
people along the lines of preserva-
tion, for preservation of the people
means the preservation of the state.

Little need be said concerning the
stave silO. The number of these silOs
erected annually and the general salts
faction expressed by the owners are
indications of their efficiency In some
cases the farmer purchases his own
materials and constructs the silo him
self, but, he generally buys the ready
made silo, and in view of the growing
scarcity of lumber and the difficulty Of
procuring proper material at the gem
eral lumber yard the latter way would
appear to be the most advisable. There
are number of reliable firms manu-
featuring stave silos.
Suggestions may be offered at this
point:
However open the cracks between
slaves may be while the silo is empty.
these cracks should be closed when
the silo is filled. Otherwise losses|
must occur because of penetration of
sir through the cracks into the ensi-
lage; hence the Importance of inteli-|
gent tightening of the hoops.
Every unsound stave should he re-
jected when selecting lumber with
which to build stave silo or in pur-
chasing a ready made one. Sapwood
and worm eaten pieces are unfit for
silo construction. The writer recently
inspected the slaves of silo erected
seven years ago which was being
moved to a new foundation.
One stave was too badly rotted to be
of further use. The other slaves were
in good state of preservation except
for some rotting at the lower ends
Little Falls herald. [volume] (Little Falls, Morrison County, Minn.) 1889-1950, 1909-11-12

which rested on the foundation. Slaves
of silos rot most rapidly at the lower
end, where they come in contact with
the foundation. If before setting up
the lower six or eight inches of the
slaves could be thoroughly treated
with warm coal tar or, better perhaps.
with carbolineum their durability
would be considerably increased.
For several years past there has
been a growing interest in cement as a
material for silo construction. Reports
concerning their efficiency have been
conflicting. and numerous theories have
been set forth as to why they should or
should not produce good ensilage. Nu-
merous questions have arisen concern
ing the possibilities of cement silos.
materials required, methods of con-
struction, etc.
While there is much more to learn
concerning cement silos and cement
silo construction. it has been proved
that durable efficient silos can be made
and are being made of cement. Such
silos are in use and possess all of the
essential qualities needed in first
class SilO

The Long Prairie Leader has discon-
tinued its Tuesday edition, which it
has run for the past three years, be-
cause the patronage does not warrant q
continuance of the same. The regular
issue published on Friday will how
ever, continue to go to the Leader g
large number of subscribers. Brother
Lee gets out good paper and will do
better by the change. The advent of
the twlce-a- week paper IN Minnesota
has not been great, and from q bust
ness standpoint should be less. az it can
be plainly seen by looking through
most of them that the extra edition is
not paying its way by a good deal.
The time when such q proposition
will stand on it's feet may come sooner
or later-but that time does not seem
to have arrived in most of the places

Dairy Nuqqets.

Give the COWS grain ration every
day.
This extra food will be more than
paid for every day in the increased
amount of milk. and. besides, the drop
pings will be so enriched that the pas
lures will be fertilized sufficiently to
pay for the extra grain.
Be sure that the COWS have all the
pure. clean water they can drink with
out walking long distances for it.
In the opinion Of some. the quantity
of water drunk by COW is an impor-
tant test of her value as a mixer.
Milk that is we'll cooled and carefully
strained will keep much longer than
that which is not thus treated.
Pasture will produce more milk than
soiling on rye, alfalfa or oats. but
when the grass begins to fail it is well
to have silage to fall back on.

JUDGES of the old judge. He made it
appear that the Jeffersonians were
actuated by craftsmanship, and he laid
more stress on politics than on law.
Marshall and one Of the justices were
known to be for the old trustees, two
other justices were for the Legislature,
and the three others were also leaning
toward sustaining the New Hampshire
court Unfortunately the other side
was not as we'll represented as the
college, although tits evident that if
represented by archangels, Marshall
He did not know how to be fair
toward those differing from him. He
was the last hope of the old-time
Federalists and he wanted to deal a
blow at the hated Jeffersonlans. The
law on the side of the respondents
was so strong that in spite Of
politics, when the case ended, it was
evident that the court stood five to
two in favor of the state power to
change the charter. Marshall could
not brook this, and refused to have the
matter settled then and there,
but suspended announcement of the
courts decision for many months. In
the meantime a systematic campaign,
evidently under the direction Of
Marshall and Webster, was carried on
to bring pressure on the three judges
who It was thought could be
changed. Every possible influence
was brought to BEAR. and the affair
became entirely a partisan and
political proposition, founded on the
political squabble in New Hampshire
and the desire of Marshall to 'get
even' with Jefferson by preventing
some of the followers OF the Sage of
Monticello from electing the president
Of small college, Justice and law
were not even secondary considera-
tions, and for petty and unworthy
motives, we're the interests Of millions
of future Americans imperiled. The
campaign succeeded, and the three
judges were brought over, resulting in
the decision when given out. favorlng
the old trustees. The imperlous
Marshall refused to allow the case to
be re-opened, although Pinckney of
Maryland, the acknowledged head of
the American bar, had been engaged
for the losing side. Marshall, it is
apparent, ought to have been i'm
peached. and his memory does not
deserve the gloritication which has
been given it so long. The story Of
how the decision was brought about IS
given in the Independent for Aug.
18th, and is worth reading by every
citizen.

dandy. The issue contained an ex-
haustive write-up Of the county's

vantages. The fact that the county
won first prize at tho state fair this
year for excellence OF agricultural ex-
hibit, is the nucleus around which the
arguments for Morrison county is
grounded. The edition is cleverly
prepared and when thoroughly
circulated as we have no doubt the
, business men ana farmers of Morrison
county will hasten to do, will be a
powerful agency in attracting land
buyers to the county and capitalists
to it's towns and cities.

We prescribe how many deer a man
shall shoot, and when, and restrict
him in his disposal Of the animals
after they are shot. He must get
permission before he can shoot, also.
We also say how man shall fish, how
me- ny he may CATCH and when. And
the rights of the capital invested in
the rifle or the fishing rod doesn t
deter legislatures from passing game
laws. And the laws are universally
accepted. We have. in proportion,
done far more to conserve the fish and
game of the state than to conserve the
water powers and the woods.
