SWEET CORN s|LAGE
G. W. Patterson Makes Table Of
Comparison
DAIRY EXPERT GIVES FIGURES
States that Sweet Corn sIa9e
Equal az Food for Cattle on Ratio
Of ITO IONS to GOO Bushels OF
SheIled Corn.

Lake Mills.--Sweet corn silage Is
equal to shelled corn as food for
cattle at the ratio of 100 tons OF 81
lage to little mere than 600 bushels
of corn according to figures when
have been given out bg G. w. Patter.
son, expert Of the North Iowa Dairy
Improvement association as the result
of experiments which have been car
ried on at the Colby farm near here.
The immense fields of sweet corn
stalks that have gone to waste here
led Mr.. Patterson to make the expert
ments and he says this crop makes
a superior ensilage to any other that
can be found. A table in which the
food properties of sweet corn and
mature dent corn is compared Is as
follows:
Per cent of digestible nutriments
in sweet corn stalks: Protein, "a;
carbohydrates, IA; fat, IS; dry mat.
ter, 22.3. Per cent Of nutriments IN
dent corn stalks: Protein, 8; carbo-
hydrates, 11.S; fat, Z; dry matter,
20.9.
This analysis was made without the
ear as to the sweet corn and with
the ear as to the dent corn. On this
basis Professor Patterson says that
100 tons of sweet corn stalks is equal
in food value to $261.5O worth OF
shelled corn at 40 cents per bushel or
S2Q0 worth of oats at % cents per
bushel.

REVISION " EXTRA sEs-
SION Is CALLED.
PARTY PLEDGES TO BE KEPT
Underwood, Chairman Of New Ways
and Means Committee, Gives Out
Authoritative Statement-Farmers
Protest Against New Treaty.

Misunderstanding Democrats Of the
house are prepared to 60 to work at
once on the revision of several
schedules OF the Payne-Aldrich tariff
act shoSld an extra session be called
following the present session OF con-
gress.
An authoritative statement to this
effect was given out Tuesday by Rep
resentative Underwood of Alabama,
who has been selected as chairman OF
the new committee on ways and means.
It was made to correct an erroneous
report which has gained circulation In
the last few days. Mr.. Underwood
said:
1.-THE statement that If an extra ses-
sion is called the Democrats in the
house will not begin the work Of revis-
Ing the tariff is absolutely unfounded.
The Democrats are pledged to revise
the tariff and If we go into an extra
session the house unquestionably Will
pass some tariff bills. revising some OF
the schedules OF the Payne act down
ward, before 1t ,adtourns."
Farmers registered protests against
Canadian reciprocity at the hearing be-
fore the senate committee on finance.
Former Governor N. J. Bachelor OF
New Hampshire, master Of the nation
al grange, made the opening argument
and announced that If the committee
had the time to her them he would
be followed by masters OF oranges In
Indiana, Delaware. Michigan, Ohio,
Pennsylvania. Maryland. New York.
West Virginia. New Hampshire, Con-
necticut and Massachusetts,, as we'll as
representatives in the various states Of
dairy, horticultural and other associa.
lions, including directors Of state ex-
detrimental stations.
Mr.. Bachelor asserted that 100000
farmers were united in opposition to
the agreement, and he said he voiced
their protests against free trade in
farm products while protection was
continued upon manufactured articles
which the farmers were compelled to
buy. He declared that Canada was the
only country which the farmers had to
fear, and that free trade with that
country means that the farmers would
derive no benefit from the tariff law.
The agreement with Canada will
pass the senate. This was the declara-
ton of Senator Carter of Montana as
he was leaving the White House after
a conference with President Taft. Per-
sonally Senator Carter is opposed to
the measure.
