Construction OF a
Clay=BIock Silo.
BY J. J. Sprenger, Zumbro
Falls, Mimi.
= !. !. = !. !. = :. :. :. !. !. !. !.


We have just built a clay-block silo
and filed it, and it. seems to answer
ali the requirements of good silo.
We have been asked to describe this
si!o for the Institute Annual, and sub
NIT the following:
We dug a hole six feet deep, and
large enough to allow for our founda-
tinn wall aud leave the silo fourteen
feet in diameter This was dug out
SO that the si,o extends six feet below
ground
The wall above ground is made Of
hollow brick. Each brick is one foot
long, four inches thick and eight
inches wide, with two air-spaces about
two and one-half inches in diameter
and separated by wall about three.
fourths of an inch thick. The brick
are laid fatWise; that is, so that they
make an eight-inch WALL This leaves
two air-spaces in the brick, and the
mortar between the ends of the brick
does not extend clear across the silo,
but is simply filed in at the outer and
inner edges, thus making a single air
space in the mortar at the end of the
brick. The bricks are straight; that
is, they are not curved to fit the curve
in the silo. Being so short, they leave
the wall comparatively smooth on the
outside. The bricks were laid from
the inside, and any unevenness was
plastered over with two coats of rich
cement. The walls are thirty-two feet
high, making the entire depth of the
silo thirty-eight feet at the door.
The silo has a continuous door,
made of two 2xS's sixteen feet long,
splicing so as to make the frame two
feet wide and thirty-two feet high. The
Kiss are fastened together by three
quarter-inch bolts Extending from
one 2xS to the other, these bolts are

Tho Peanut.

The common peanut, beloved Of the
small boy. grows in way that is dis
tinctly original. The little plant sends
up it's shoots. with the fruit on the
end Of somewhat stiff stalk. and
then before it ripens the stem bends
over and carefully pushes the fruit un-
derground. AS pigs are said to be
especially fond Of these, it has been
suggested that the plant does this to
hide it's nuts from the porker's too in

Democrat Leaders Queered
. Vote in Somerset.
They Cry Extravaganza" but
Offer Nothing as a Policy.
County Chat Of New industries,
Good Crops, Etc.

The Democrats are beginning to fear
for what little hold they have had in
Somerset county in this campaign
since PIaisted and Pattangall spoke
here a few weeks ago there has been
a lull in Democratic centers. but many
OF the old-time Democrats are say
ing: II cannot vote for PlaiSted even
if what the Democrats say about the
Republican administration is true"
Pattangall and Plaisted are crying ex-
travagance on the part of the Repub-
leans hut they have not in one in
stance been able to tell wherein they
could better things. This is what people
are saving. They go on to say that I'M
der the administration of Governor
Fernald there has been a wave of
prosperity which has not been equalled
in previous years.
It would look. by going through the
different towns in the county where
there has been dissenting spirit
against the Republican administration
and some talk for Democratic admin
istration. as if this spirit had died out.
A man in Skowhegan who has follow
ed politics all his life said few days
ago that the Democrats reached their
zenith at the last campaign. They
made the best showing in the state
that they have made in number of
years in votes for Governor. but the
gentleman said also that this was only
due 70 the fact that they had an eX-
ceptionally good man. Gardner. as
candidate for Governor. He was vote
getter among the farmers as he IN
fact represented the farm interests and
they expectad a lot from him if elected,
put the bottom fell out of the bucket
when Plaisted was substituted. The
Republicans might have had fears this
year, said the man, If the Democrats
had again run Gardner, but now thew
will be like a gust of wind which will
soon mass over. But what can you ex-
pecto" the politician said, THE Demo
Gratis never had any stability and
guess they never will have. Perhaps
thew might have accomplished some
