the silo affords the cheapest means
for forage preservation.
Because Of the palatability and sue
culence silage possesses higher feed
ing value than does the same forage
dry cured. Conservative feeders esti-
mate that the silo doubles the value
of the forage crop.
It has been conclusively proved
that the silo effects a considerable
saving in the cost of production Of
beef, mutton and milk.

The sudden death OF Mr.. VIM p.
Powell, one Of St. Mary Is most popu-
lar men, on the eighteenth inst has
caused cloud 10 overshadow all
who knew him. Mr. Powell was an
enterprising man, and, 10 my opin-
ion, has taken more interest and &C.
complished more good 10 our county
than any other resident Only his
most intimate friends know how
much charity be has done, as he was
never heard to boast OF any of his
works. Mr.. Powell was a noble

life and as the height OF his career.

INDIANS IN CONFERENCE
FOR OWN WELFARE

COLUMBUS (Ohio) Oct. 12.-lndiahs
representative of more than hundred
tribes assembled at the University OF
Ohio today for the purpose of formally
launching a national organization devot-
ed to the interests of the redskins. The
delegates, clad in perfectly tailored cloth
.ng and carefully groomed, bore little re-
semblance to the scalp lifting savages
described in dime "thrillers." and their
language and department proved to be
mythical the oft. epeated allegation that
che Indian is incapable of civilization.
AT the assembly hall of the university
the visitors We're welcomed by repre-
sentatives OF the city, the university, the
Order of Red Men and various other
bodies.
The American Indian Association, as
.he organization will probably be called,
includes among its founders many of the
prominent Indians in public life, includ-
ng several senators and representatives.
The executive committee includes the
following:
John NJ Oskinson. associate editor of
Golfers Weekly; Charles E. Daganett;
aura NJ Cornelius. y. B., of Columbia
Univel sity; Mrs. Rosa b. La Flesche;
Charles A. Eastman, the well known In
lian author, who represented the~Amerl-
an Indian at the recent universal race
congress in London; William Haslett;
pr. Carlos MonteZuma. of the Apache
tribe a Chicago physician; Henry Stand
ing Bear. an,. Benjamin Caswell.
These educated and successful Indians
are agreed that the present is the most
,ritical time in the history of the race
The Indian, following his subsection by
the paleface. became ward of Uncle
