ADVANTAGES OF SILAGE.
Clemson Extension WOrk-Arti-
Gle 47.

\ X
TO produce milk at low cost pastur'
age or its equivalent is necessary. Tc
take the place Of pasturage two meth
DDS of getting green food can be re-
sorted to. The first being to grow
such crops as rye, wheat, oats, sor-
ghum, and corn and cut these at the
proper time and feed to the COWS. The
second method is to put up green food
in such a manner that it will keep
green the entire year and be ready to
feed at any season. To keep green
food all the year it is necessary to
keep it air tight. The most conven-
lent form in which to do this is by
use of the silo. The silo may be made
of brick, concrete, or Wood-Which-
ever is most convenient to the builder.
How to build and what to use will be
explained in detail if application is
made to the dairy division OF Glenn
son college. The requirements for
any silo being that when filled it will
be air tight and have great eG5ugh
depth so that the pressure of the sill
age will drive out all the air. The
material, such as corn and sorghum
Of which most of the silage is made,
must be put into the silo green. If at
all dry, water must be added, for un-
less it stays damp in the silo it will
spoil.
Two advantages of the silo is that
it gives a supply of green food the
entire year and enables the farmer to
put up a large amount Of food in a
very small space. The cost of the silo
will average about 81 to 81 per ton
capacity. The cost of putting the corn
or sorghum into the silo, counting all
cost Of growing, will vary from 81 to
81 per ton. No dairyman can afford
to be without a silo.

A Mission to Rescue the Fallen.

A. W. Elliott, g. Atlanta, Ca, who
has had many years experience as
rescue worker and who has been gath
ering information along the line OF
white slave traffic in the South, has
ORGANIZED the Southern Rescue Mis-
sion with headquarters in Atlanta, and
with the privilege of establishing
branches throughout the country, with
the sole object in view of driving out
Of existence the traffic in girls which
he claims is reaching alarming pro-
portions. The incorporators are A. W.
Elliott, of Atlanta, P. '. Holllngs-
worth, of Augusta. and Rev. Lamar
Sims, of Albany.
Mr.. Elliott's long and varied exper-
fences in this work of rescue has CIV
en- him a knowledge of true conditions
as but few possess, and he states that
the slaughter of human souls has be-
come wholesale, and that unless steps
are taken to break up this traffic and
help the girls break loose from their
slavers (who are holding them either
by their affection or through fear),
that we are not a freedom loving ma
ton, and that We do not sympathize
with the oppressed.
Mr.. Elliott states that there are
thousands of worthless men in the
South who do practically no work and
wear the very finest clothing, and that
their daily and nightly vocation IS
gambling. Their money and the very
food they. eat is furnished them by
girls whom they hold in their grasp,
either through their affections or fear.
And he further says that these ''pimps"
or "cadets" are not only holding ito
death" these poor mothers girls
crushing them down into the depths
of moral degeneracy, but great many
of them are lying in wait, as deadly
viper would, to strike their fangs to
the hearts of the young, innocent and
thoughtless girls of our country
girls whom We would be proud Of
girls whom We need to be the mothers
Of future generations. He says fur
ther that this traffic is increasing in
alarming proportions, and that steps
should be taken at once to break it up.
eff our laws" he says, "are not SUI
ficient to handle the situation, let more
drastic measures be enacted. Make
laws that will protect the young and
innocent from the snares Of these
*'life and purity destroyers."
"A great many of these plmps or
white slavers," Mr.. Elliott further
states, "are known to many of the
officers of the law, and why do they
not handle them? Why will they sac
rifce the young of our nation rather
than do their duty?'
Mr.. Elliott states that this organ
ization will begin a fearless fight on
these destroyers of purity, and that
this fight shall extend over the
Southern Statess and he makes an ap-
peal to this "liberty loving people to
stand with him in this fght-to lend
him encouragement and sympathy. He

The Question of POStpOnement.

10 last weeks issue of one of the
county papers, two of the leaders of the
Pay as You go Plan stated that if the
Bond Issue people declined to POSTPONE
the election ordered by the court for
the 18th instant, it would show that
they were afraid to submit the question
to a full vote of the county.
This statement is not warranted bv
the facts and is not true. The Bond Is
sue people at the time that the circuit
court ordered the election, believed that
every one who was qualified to vote in
last falls election would be qualified to
vote in the road election, and they were
under this impression until a few days
ago, when their attention was called
to the law, which required the payment
of poll tax on or about the 18th day of
December, 1910, in order to vote in this
special election. Advocates of the
Bond Issue plan would prefer that this
question be submitted to a full vote of
the county, and regret very much that
it cannot be done. To do 30 would be
to hold an illegal election and jeopardize
the sale of the bonds, and, in addition
to this, would give the opportunity to
our opponents to contest the election
and set it aside.
We assume that no one, either Bond
Issue advocates or Pay as You Go ad-
vocates had any knowledge whatever of
it, until it was accidentally discovered
g few days ago. 1t was not the fault
of either party, and no one should be
blamed or criticised for it. To postpone
the election to later date would, in all
probability, raise legal question as to
the validity of the election held on the
later date, and those opposed to the
Bond Issue plan would, in all probabil-
ity, contest that election, which would
necessarily postpone the building of
roads in Tazewell county until this liti-
CATION should be determined by the Su-
preme Court of our State.
In addition to this, it is fair to assume
that as many voters favoriDg the Bond
Issue cannot vote as there are those
who favor the Pay Plan, who cannot
vote, and the people might desire the
question determined at an early date. as
they have been considering it for a con-
siderable length of time.
If the advocates of the PAY Plan think
that the judge of the court should en-
join the holding of this election and fix
later date for the holding of the same,
why don't they apply for the Injunction
themselves? For the Bond Issue people
to take the advice of the Paw as You
Go people might be another case of the
spider and the fly. Under ali the circum-
stances and in view of the fact that nc
one knew Of the existence of this law,
and that as many on one side will be de-
prlved of their vote as there will be on
the other side, WHY SHOULD NOT
THE ELECTION BE HELD?

and paid by those who will use the road
after that time.

mans life, and especially is this true if
he has passed middle age. 1t is neither
equitable nor justifable to tax a man
who is 80 or 60 years old a sufficient
amount during the balance of his life to
pay for large mileage of improved
roads for somebody else to use and en-
JOY. On the other hand a young man is
better able to pay his larger, Just share
OF this burden if the taxes are extended
through number of years.
Farms are bought on this principle.
A young man with few thousand dol
lars buys a farm costing 8 good deal
more than he possesses, and he knows
that with the earning capacity of the
farm he viii be able to pay off the bal
ance of the purchase money
Homes are bought and paid for on
this plan.
Railroads are built on this plan.
Every great development project is
based on this plan.
Even the United States Government
is building the Panama Canal on this
plan.
In fact, anything that is done for the
purpose of securing a material return,
Is done upon the assumption that the
expected return is worth more than the
interest on the money. Applying this
principle to the construction of modern
roads, If the use of the roads does not
give greater returns to the people than
the interest on the money would be,
their construction cannot be justified in
any way. If they do give an additional
return, then it profitable thing to bor-
row the money and get the benefit of
the extra return as early as possible.
