A Reinforced Brick Si|0.

Having had good results with a
brick silo constructed in 1904, the
West Virginia Station undertook, in
1909, to construct larger brick silo
which should have all the advantages
of the first structure, and yet be
much less expensive. The construc-
tion of this silo is described by Horace
Atwood in a recent bulletin of the
West Virginia Station as follows:
An excavation was made about four
feet deep to the underlying rock in
order to secure a solid foundation.
Then a cylindrical brick wall was laid
up the width of brick or four inches
thick, cement mortar being used.
AS the wall was laid, god wire nails,
which previously had been annealed
by heating them, we're embedded in
the mortar with the ends projecting
from the wall about two inches into
the silo. About two nails we're used
per square foot of surface.
After the wall had stood few days
for the cement to harden, woven wire
fencing was cut into peices Of the
proper length to go around the inside
of the silo, tapping somewhat, and
the projecting ends of the nails we're
clinched over the wires so as to hold
the fencing close to the brick wall.
Only fencing with straight horizon
tai wires should be used for this pur-
pose, for if the fencing is not drawn
close to the wall in all places an un-
necessary amount of cement will be
required for the plastering.
Two thicknesses of wire fencing
we're put on for about one half Of the
depth of the silo and for the remain
der only one thickness. Each strip
of fencing as put on was Tapped about
two inches over the lower one. The

for the money expended. 1t is
certain fact that most dairy farmers
do not read enough OF the dairy
literature that is in circulation. We
must abandon the idea we once had
that books do not contain anything
practical, for the books that are
written on dairy subjects today are
written by men who have had many
years of experience and look at the
business from the standpoint of profit.
The state experiment stations, and
the United States Department of Agri
culture send out, from time to time,
some very interesting bulletins of ex-
periments conducted in the various
branches of agriculture. A list of the
available numbers can always he had
by writing for them, and when you
mention the ones that are of interest
to you they may also be had for the
asking. The stations are conducting

done by the farmer himself, the actual
cash outlay would be much less than
given above. And since these prices
are for material in West Virginia,
some Of the figures may be too high,
while others are too low, so that it
ought to average up to about the
same total for this section of the
country.

Milk as Food.

Now that the hot weather is here
we ought all to drink more milk. Is
it not fact that we esteem it alto
gether too lightly as a nutrient? Yet
the facts of the case show that few
articles of common consumption sur
pass it in nourishment. At the New
York Child Welfare Exhibit, it was
shown that a quart of milk is equival-
ent in food value to eight eggs, to one
pound of lean meat or three pounds
of fish. Occasionally a person is
found who does not like the taste of
milk. For the great majority it has
decided attraction, alone or in COM
bination with a cereal. The old fash
toned dish of bread and milk still
holds favor with scores of people old
and young. Skimmilk lacking only
in fat, may be wholesome, but is not
so palatable as that containing it's full
quota of cream. Even sour milk has
its votaries and cup of rich milk
allowed to become thick at tempera-
ture of SO to 100 degrees F. SO that the
flavor is not impaired, possesses much
the same qualities as dutch or cottage
cheese. Try little with or without
sugar and see if it is not better than
you imagine, but let the milk be rich
with its original cream, and icy cold.
AS for buttermilk, it is simply de-
licious to those who have a taste for
it, either natural or acquired. For
those troubled with rheumatic aftec-
tions, also nervousness, headache and
other Heterogeneous of the digestive
system, sour milk or buttermilk has
proven beneficial in case of constipa-
ton and on the other hand persons
suffering from summer complaint or
diarrhoea have sometimes found relief
in its use. The Tactic acid is claimed
to be particularly good for people
advanced in years at which period
more or less poisoning of the system
is present by the absorption of wastes
from the body. 1t is not probable
that buttermilk is II panacea for all
the ills of life, neither fountain of
youth to all who drink it, but it APP
pears certain that it is sane and
hygenic beverage for those on the
down hill side of life especially, and
without any doubt its plentiful use
would be worth far more than drugs
in many instances. Hoard Dairy

project about four inches above the
top of the wall and this was stapled
to the plate. thus fastening the roof
securely to the structure.
After the wire was in place the in
side of the silo was plastered with
cement mortar, thus covering the
wire. The mortar consisted of one
part of cement and three parts of sand.
Four openings we're provided at
convenient distances for removing the
silage. These openings are each 24x3O
inches in size. The door frames are
of cast iron one inch in thickness,
with a projection which laps couple
of inches over the brick work on the
inside of the siIo. There is also
projection an inch high extending
around the frame on the inside and
two inches from the face of the frame
and against which the door presses
when in place.
The doors we're made as is custO-
mary, OF two thicknesses of seven
Fights inch flooring, with roofing
paper between, and they are held to-
gether by being bolted to AKA in. pieces
of timber, which extend across the
door frames on the outside. The nuts
on the doors which pass through the
doors and the pieces of timber are
frightened from the outside, and in
this way the doors can be drawn snug
ly against the jamb of the door frame.
This silo has been used only one
year, but the silage has kept we'll and
the walls withstood the internal pres
sure.
1t is believed this method of con-
struction possesses many advantages
where permanent structure is desir-
ed. The wire fencing, being protect
ed by the coating of cement. has no
tendency to rust and the life of the
silo should be almost indefinite.
In every agricultural community the
services of a brick mason can be
secured easily; the job of laying up
the four inch wall is a short one, and
the farmer himself can put on the
wire and do the plastering.

GRAND OPERA

There is a characteristic of the
American people that is noticeable In
the purchase Of a book. automobile
or sleigh. This characteristic is also
manifested in the selection Of play.
The people want the best, and in &C.

the largest and best grand opera
company in America to appear in
this city January 7th.
This date for the Lambarti Grand
Opera company. a caste of over 125
artists in every operate line, with
an orchestra Of thirty pieces, was
the greatest stroke ever made for the
music lovers of this city, and the
people feel justly proud of the town
for being selected as the only place
in North Dakota at which the great
company will give an entertainment.

BANKS ISSUE
fine CALENDARS

Among the fine calendars issued to
their customers the banks OF this
place have done about the best. The
First National Bank is putting out q
beautiful series Of hand.fnished col
ortypes. There are four in the SER
les three of which are women and
one child. Each has taken prize at
some exhibition and the little child
is the one that took the prize among
the hundreds of babies in the show at
Atlantic City.
The State bank of Morton county
are giving out small art panel OF a
lady beside balloon basket and nm
ished in delicate colors. Also they
are putting out handy little pocket
compendium containing the latest
census figures, a map of North Da'
kota and of the United States be-
side ruled spaces for three entries
for each day of the year.
The Farmers and Merchants bank
has given out very elaborate affair
consisting of a reproduction OF the
painting of "Sentinel Rock" to the
Yosemite Valley, California. To
those who have had the pleasure OF
visiting the Yosemite, this calendar
is considered a perfect piece OF the
calendar makers art,
Numerous other fine calendars are
being put out by the mercantile ana
other firms and it is a pleasure to
examine the various lines. The main
idea carried out is to be educative
and artistic. and not so much uttli-
tartan. In fact several of the people
who are issuing the calendars state
their idea is to get as far away from
the sordid and mercantile as possible
and to give real enjoyment from the
little tokens of the first of the year.
One of the prominent men said he
did It more to promote an interest
in art than to receive any Dement'S
from advertising.
