held this week for the purpose, II pos.

local will make application to the Ma.
tionai organization at Washington, D.
c., for a charter. The local will be
affiliated with the bartenders' and
cooks unions and the same rules and
bylaws will govern them.
1t was mentioned some time ago in
the West Virginian that a meeting
was held by the local waters for the
purpose OF organizing such a union,
but It appears that the local could not
be perfected at that time as all the
walters would not enter into the agree.

sufficient executive ability to bring
the organization to q focus. Since that

another meeting and to appoint some
waiter to call upon each and every
handler OF the tray in Fairmont and

II there are not a sufficient numbes
present at the meeting this week to
take action in forming a union.
A waiter stated this morning that
it was not the intention Of the local,

is for the purpose OF having a scale
Of wages that shall be uniform, that
every waiter who shall have certain
duties shall be paid uniform wages,
and that the local will bring the mem-

STORAGE OF THE ROOT CROPS
Concrete Cellar 10 Economical and
Easy Of onStf6etlon-Plt Also
Found Satisfactory.
tBy E. ]. DELwIcHE. wlsconsIn)

(By Z. ]. DELWICHE, Wisconsin,
Root crops are valuable for stock
feeding, both for their content OF d.
gestible nutrients ano in supplying
succulent feed for the winter months.
Under good conditions large amount
OF feed per acre can be grown from
roots, for this reason-they are use
full on small farms where the amount
OF land under cultivation is small.
Roots can probably be grown for
less than 81 per ton under favorable
conditions. The cost OF production
per acre is approximately $S5 per
acre.
Mangels give the heaviest yield per
acre, with rutabagas and turnips q
close second, and carrots third.
Carrots and rutaDagas are about
equal in per cent. OF digestible nutri-
ents. and are higher in this respect
than either mangels or turnips.
Turnips and rutabagas do not keep
so we'll as some other roots. They
should be fed In the fall and early
winter In the order named.
Mangels and carrots keep we'll over
winter when properly stored.
The best place to store roots is in
root cellar near where they are to be
fed. Such a cellar may be part OF a
barn., basement, or 1t may be built
conveniently near to the stock barn.
In most places the root house can be
built most economically Of concrete.
Ordinarily cement is the only material
that has to be purchased. The gravel
and sand are usually available at no
great distance on most farms. While
the temperature In root house should
never fall to the freezing point, II
should be at a low point for best re-
suits in keeping roots.
When no cellar is available, roots
may be stored in pits. For fall and
early winter feeding, they need not be
covered to any great depth. The roots
are put in a conical pile, about four
feet in diameter on a bed Of clean
straw, then covered with a layer Of
two inches of long straw. Clean rye
straw is preferred for this purpose.
The straw at the apex OF the pile is
made to form a chimney five or six
inches in diameter for ventilation.

Corn silage is not considered a very
good feed for hogs nor horses.
Poorly fed sheep will not produce
very good wool. nor good mutton.
In the feeding Of live stock there is
a chance for a large leak and yet
have It unknown.
A runaway horse is only safe in the
stable with a good halter and the
stable door latched.
Skimp your sheep on good pasture
and they will skimp you on mutton.
Works both ways.
BY the time the pigs are eight
weeks old they will be ready to wean
without any check in their growth.
Get the hogs on to new corn care
fully. II is hard stuff to digest. You
know that from personal experience.
Garry your good care Of the ewes

nice bright oats TO keep them in con-
dltion.

Of your securing the service Of q

Don't push the fat horse on hot
days, either In the fields or on the
road. Once overheated he loses half
his value.
Too much grass weakens all teams
at hard, steady work. A run in the
grass lot or fields Sundays or rainy
days is sufficient.
You wiz be getting your male sheep
for the falls breeding soon. Pay
enough to get a good one. There Is
money in better stock.
Blessed be the man who will invent
a floor for a hog house that will
drain easily and keep clean without
a man having to set up nights to do
It.

Three years ago this winter l had

little pimples on my back and spread
till It covered my whole body and

down to my elbows. Where l
scratched 1t made sores, and the ter
rible itching and burning kept me
from sleeping. l tried several RENE
dies all to no purpose. Then con-
cluded to try the Cutlcura Remedies. I
used the Cutlcura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment, also the Resolvent, for
about four months, and they COM

skin eruption first broke out till com.
menced using the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. had only used them q
few days before l could see they were
beginning to heal, and the terrible
itching was gone.
"Those that lived in the house at
the time know how / suffered, and
how the Cuticura Soap and Ointment
cured me. never take a bath with

METAL COLLAR FOR A HORSE
Meets Much Favor With Horsemen
Because Il Hardens Flesh and
10 Always Cool.

II is a mistake to use a very soft
collar on a horse. The collar should
be as firm as 1t can possibly be made.
and II Of leather, the surface should
be smooth. hard, and the collar itself
evenly stuffed with the best OF hair.
or other fine resisting material. The
nan who works hard with his hands
covered with soft gloves, usually finds
at the end OF a day or two that his
hands are soft, and often blistered,
