When one can build silO at the
figures given in the Dairy Special.
why should any farmer be without
one? I have made in past years many
thousands of tons Of ensiage, and [
would as soon think OF farming and
feeding COWS without a barn or stable
as without a silo In the sand bllls
Of Moore county, North Carolina Mr.
Tufts has brought up the sand to
making over 90 bushels Of corn an
acre, and 81 tons of ensiiage an acre
with the manure made from feeding
the ensilage and peavine hay, and thus
on land as poor as exists on earth, lie
has gotten humus into the sand, ana
it is more retentive Of moisture, and
grows crops where naturally te"
years ago corn would not grow knee
high. The silo makes corn one OF our
greatest renovating crops.

the shallow lives, quick to follow each h

more shallowness than sin in the

Overcrowded life-the thorn-infested

like a landscape, needs open spaces.
The twentieth century should null

But after all and after all, most of

Old Cannon Found.

Exeter, Mo-, Dec. 2S.-A much
sought-after old cannon, captured
from Kansas troops by General Sterl-
ing Prices men in 1864, was found
today in deep hole in Flat creek,
near here. A party, headed by E. F.
Heisler, secretary of the Kansas Sol
diers' Memorial association, found the
gun. It will be placed in the rooms
of the Kansas State Historical So
ciety at Topeka.
The cannon was a part Of the equip
ment of a force of Kansans under
Colonel G. w. Veal Of Topeka on
march from Springfield, Mo-, to Fort
Smith, Ark. Attacked by General
Prices command and driven back to-
ward Springfield, the Kansas forces
lost a gun, but rallying, pursued
Prices men so closely that they, rath-
er than risk losing the artillery,
threw 1t down a deep hole, where 1t
remained forty-six years.

Oklahoma City, Dec. 2S.-Oklaho-
mas Third legislature, which will
be convened in this city next Tues
day, promises to be the busiest
since the territory passed into state
organization. Probably one of the
first and most important questions
to be taken up will be the modifica-
ton of the bank guaranty law. At
tempts have been made before to
change the law, but so far failure
came. Just what changes will be pro
posed is not known at this time.
1t Is almost certain that an at
tempt will be made to change the
present election law, or rather put
ting an entirely new law on the
books. The present measure is so
repugnant to the people generally
that it is expected the legislature
will be unanimous for a radical
change from the law that has been
in force for the past three years.
Oklahoma has for the past two
years been deeply interested in good
roads. Organizations has sprung up
all over the state TO improve the
roads, and county convicts have been
employed in the work. But more
funds are needed. and it is likely
that some legislation on this sub
ject will be asked.
