FIG. Kill ERECTING A sTAyR sILo.
liable feed for dairy cows. twenty-five
10 thirty pounds Of sllage per day viii
keep the milk yields up TO point
practically as high ms could be reached
on pasture A silo is Indispensable on
the dairy farm II means summer
conditions all the year round
The value Of silage for beef steers
has not been fully demonstrated as
set. although great many feeders are
using 1t With satisfaction. Used in
moderate quantities. 1t cheapens the
cost Of gain aud keeps the animals
healthy For calves aud stock cattle
silage is an excellent feed, keeping
them thrifty and making cheaper gains
than could be produced IN any other
way.
All kinds OF sheep do well on silage
II is good feed for hogs If fed IN
moderation, aud chickens are very
fond OF It.
The main consideration IN locating
the silo is 10 have II convenient. Since
most OF the siIage will probably be fed
10 dairy cows, the best place for the
siIo win be at the end Of the COW barn.
Feeding hunks can be arranged close
20 the silo for feeding sllage to young
stock
Wooden Siios.
There are several types OF silos
Many Of the first silos put up were
built OF lumber double walled and
sided on the outside This made
very good silo but one that was alto
geiher too expensive. 4 later and
more popular type is the starc silo
This in made much the same as a
wooden tank. II consists OF long
slaves held In place by hoops. with n
row of doors on one side. Staye silos |
are used more extensively at present |
than any other tyre They are cheap, I
easy TO erect aud fairly durable. This |
latter point depends largely upon the 1
kind of wood used White pine and |
redwood are the hest materials for |
stayes They with last twenty years or
more Cypress, Oregon fir, iarcl and 4
hard pine are al durable woods for 4
sil0 construction. Whatever kind of I
lumber Is used Il should be Of the besi I
quality, straight grained. sound and .
free from loose knots. A stayc silo 4
should be kept well painted on the 4
outside 1, must be anchored soihily I
with guy wires. as IT win blow over
easily when empty The hoops Win

THREATENING CIRCULARS
Tobacco crowers of North Carolina
Are Given Motive How to
Dispose of Weed.

REIDSVIILE, y. c., Feb. 1l.-Sev-
eral farmers in different sections OF
Rockingham county have received CIR
culars and ost cards in the past few
days threatening deeds of violence
unless they pool their tobacco in the
dry prizeries and stop the practice OF
disposing Of the leaf on the warehouse
Some OF the warnings were sent
through the mails, while in other in
stances number of prominent plan
tiers found circulars, thre atening vio-
lence, tackled upon their barn doors.
Efforts to trace the. authorship OF
these circulars have proved futile and
some OF the farmers are inclined to
treat the warnings as practical joke.
The promoters of the dry pTizeries
disclaim any connecti-n with the
warnings.

Oliver Splitter. the former sugar
trust dock superintendent who has
been sentenced to prison for defraud-
ing the government, protests that he
has been made a "scape goat" to
shield others 'higher-up." No doubt
what he says is true. 1t is great
pity that the little men are the only
ones TO suffer. and the administration
would receive the thanks OF the ma
ton IL the heads of trusts were sent
TO prison along with their tools. But
that is no reason for excusing the
tool. Even II Splitter and the four
checkers are Escape goats" they are
guilty and have no right to complain
when they are sent to the peniten-
tiary. The man who is dishonest at
the direction Of his employer deserves
no more consideration than the one
who steals ION his own hook"

While Little confessed last night to

he denied the one Tor which he was

He attempted to burn the house.
