The prejudice against silage for
beef cattle has undoubtedly come
largely from the demands Of the
butchers. who have maintained that
beef cattle so fed were inferior meat
producers. The important result,
Therefore. Of the slaughter test Of
these cattle, is found In the fact that
the sllage fed cattle showed the high
est per cent Of good meat, thus over
throwing the impression that such
cattle Will not "Eill well" The
slaughter test Of Is dry-fed cattle
showed a total Of s1O6 pounds Of
good meat, while that Of IS succulent
fed cattle was 1858 pounds, a gain
in favor of the silage fed cattle Of
577 pounds of salable meat. When

Judging from inquiries received from
headquarters by Station Agent j d
Conner, it is to be inferred that the
railroad company is giving some atten-
ton to the subject of new depot in
this city. Three years ago blue prints
DR. and Mrs F B Hyland came home
Thursday from a trip covering about
three months, spent mostly at Portland,
Oregon. and in that vicinity. En- route
home they spent week at Duluth with
their daughter, Mrs Bates, and two
weeks with another daughter, Mrs DIR
Everest, at Oshkosh.
Friday morning the census enumera-
tors begin their labors in the four
wards, Kenneth Oftelie, son of B T
Oftelie, taking the first ward, Leo Oh
son the second, Owen Engh the third
and Miss Helen Hintze the fourth. The
entire work must be completed in fif-
teen days from the day of starting, on
the presumption no doubt that Slough
ton has 5000 population.
Mr. and Mrs George N Campbell sent
out wedding cards Friday announcing
the marriage of their daughter, Mabel
Bessie, to Emerson B Stoddard, De-
cember "a, 1909, at Chicago, where Mr.
Stoddard is engaged in business They
will reside in that city for the present.
The bride is private stenographer for
the head secretary of the American
Surety company.
We are to have suitable ball park
in the city this summer. The commit
tee appointed by the Union Club to at
tend to this matter has worked faith
fully and their efforts have been sup
plemented by the generosity and public
spirit shown by Mr. NJ 0 Turner, who
from the moment he was approached
on the subject evinced a desire to do
more than was asked of him towards
providing play ground for the youth
of the town.
Oscar Nelson, VINO holds position in
the government geological, arrived Sun

ical maps of that section. He leaves
Monday evening and will be accom-
panied to Minnesota by E L Hahn of

survey.
showing location OF the proposed new
depot and alterations in tracks, and
such other changes as would be neces-
sary, were prepared in accordance with
suggestions outlined by Station Agent
Conner, but the panic that came in the
fall of the year effectively put quiz
etus on the project. Now, we under
stand, Mr. Connor has been asked if
the plans made three years ago would
be satisfactory, and if he had any 9TH
er suggestions to make. The proposed
plans provide for new passenger de-
pot on the site of the present structure
which, it was planned, was to be NOV
ed to where the stock yard now is and
used for freight depot. The stock
yard would be transferred to the other
side of the tracks, east of the Standard
Oil tank. The plans embrace the TAX
ing up of the "house" track immedi-
ately west of the depot.

About IL o'clock Sunday night fire
was discovered at the slaughter house
of VIM Lee, but before help could be

The building was the property of Byron

The sad news was received by rela-
tives in this city Sunday that F D Reed

'CORbfTT WORKS
TO Be FIT FOR JEFF
Fsrner Champs Dream Is to
Bring Heavy Weight Crown
Back to White Race

II is seldom that one fighter trains
for the purpose OF getting ready to
train another, but this is what Jim
Corbett is doing. The "cleverest big
man that the ring ever knew is going
through daily grind in the gymnasium
OF the New York athletic club so that
he will be physically f1t to withstand
the wallops and rushes of jim JET
fries when the big boiler maker starts
to get ready for his fight with john
son.
Corbett won't get any money out of
1T. In fact he will lose money. AS all
the world knows, Corbett is high SAL
aried stage star, yet he is passing up
his tempting offers SO that he may Ia
Dor for the good cause OF bringing the
heavy weight championship back to the
white race. This has been Corbett's
ambition ever since Johnson annexed
the title more than a year ago.
Corbett has fought Jeffries twice and
both times he was laid low by the man
mountain. Nobody in the world knows
Jeffries better than does the Caiifor-
nian. This is why he is to have full
charge of the Jefrles training camp.
If anybody can fit JEFF for the fight OF
his life Corbett is the man.
Corbett's brother Tom is in receipt
of letter from Jim in which the for
mer champion tells of his plans to
train JEFF. Jim is full of ginger and
hope and feels confident that Jeffries
will come back in a way that will sur
prise the civilized world.
That big fellow will have to fight
me many fights in private just as I
used to fght Rubin 10 years ago."
writes jim to brother Tom. ST know
that | am going TO take several knock
out punches and I know that I will be
up against the toughest game of my
life, but am willing to go through all
this for the satisfaction of landing the
championship where it belongs.
IT'S LABOR OF LOVE
Like most of the others, I believe
that the fight viii take place in Cali

to begin his active training / will join
his camp. 4 hope to be in great physi-
cal condition by that time. l am box
