Trouble in Navy Circles.
WASHINGTON, November II. -
There are troubled waters in the navy
department over the announced inten-
ton of Secretary Meyer to make
Philip Andrews chief of the bureau of
navigation.
Andrews is commander. For two
years he has enjoyed the distinction
of being aide to the secretary. He
comes from the New York navy yard,
To make Andrews chief of the bureau
can only be likened, it is said, to max
ing a lieutenant colonel chief of staff
of the army, a place to which lieuten-
ant generals only were for years be-
lieved eligible, The position has new
err been held by n officer of lower rank
than that of rear admiral. The choice
of a commander is declared by scores
OF officers to be not only an insult
to the line, but bad precedent.
Rear Admiral Nicholson, who now
holds the place, is an officer of rare
ability and is held in high esteem. He
has been slated for commander of the
Asiatic fleet.

THE CORN SILO.
Some Pertinent Facts Regarding the
Great Stock Food
Supply.

Corn silage is perhaps the most
economical stock food the farmer
can raise. 1t can be successfully
grown on any land between the
Tooth meridian and the Rocky Noun
tains where buffalo grass grows. The
corn stalk, ear and all, is chopped up
fine or shredded, before being put
into the silo, and it contains it's
strongest feeding qualities If cut
just before frost; therefore corn for
silage purposes can be grown even
in localities where the seasons are
very short, for the reason it is not
necessary for corn to mature to be
profitably put into the silo.
A corn silo is simply a big sauer-
kraut barrel filled with chopped up
corn stalks instead of chopped up
cabbage; there is no more mystery
about a silo than there is about a
sauerkraut barrel, and any farmer
who knows how to make sauerkraut
can fill corn silo. A round silo ~
feet in diameter, 20 feet high, will
hold SO tons of corn silage. Five
acres of corn planted with a lister,
dropping the grain to 10 inches
apart, will fill silo of this size. The
contents, together with hay or grass,
will feed twelve mich cows eight
months. Twelve ordinary mich cows
so fed and properly cared for will
bring a gross income from cream
alone of SIS per month, leaving the
separated milk for calf and pig feed
ing. There are many half sections
of government land yet open to set
Element in Wyoming that will sup
port three times this number of cows
and then some.
A round silo IS feet in diameter.
so feet high, will hold ISL tons of
corn silage. Twenty acres of corn
will fill the silo. The contents of
this silo will feed 700 lambs three
months, and together with hay will
put them in shape to top the market
for fat lambs; or, together with hay,
will feed As steers six months.
Corn silage has passed the expert
mental stage. Practically every uni
versity in the central and eastern
states has demonstrated that corn
silage is the cheapest stock food
grown, considering it's value as a
milk and fat producer.
A farmer located on the Burling-
ton route at Belmont, Neb., in the
extreme northwestern part of the
state, at an altitude of 4,50O feet,
has successfully grown corn silage
for many years, and during the past
seven years he has grown an average
of eight tons per acre. What this
farmer has done can be done by
practically every other farmer in the
Burlington territory west of the
Tooth meridian.
If you want to make money easy,
build silo on your farm.-D. Glenn

ANOTHER BIG DUBUQUE FIRE.
Firebug Again Causes Heavy Loss
and Throws 200 Out of
Employment.

A $4,000 property loss and two
hundred men out of employment.
That is the sum total of Sundays
fire loss at Dubuque, when the
Kretschmer Manufacturing company,
the Spahn-Rose Lumber company
and the Wienecke-Hoer Picking
company, were wiped out of exist
ence, and the barns and hardwood
lumber shed of the Farley & Loets-
cher company were reduced to ashes.
That the loss is not higher is due
to a merciful Providence, which tenn
pered the wind and the hardest kind
of fighting by the Dubuque fire de-
partment. Surrounding the fire, on
all sides, was property that only
needed start to put the fire beyond
the control of the department. Had
any of this property started, the loss
would total closer to a million than
the present loss approaches $780,
600.
The origin of the fire is believed to
have been incendiary and John Dick
son, "a years of age, residing at 1175
Washington street, grinder en-
ployed at the Adams company, is un-
der arrest under suspicion of having
been the cause of this fire as we'll as
an incipient one at the Dubuque Cas-
ket company'S lumber yard on Sat
urday night. Dickson is locked up
in cell at Central police station, in
solitary confinement. He is the man
whom the police arrested in connec-
ton with the Standard Lumber COM
pany's fire of six weeks ago, but
whom they were forced to let go be-
cause of lack of evidence.
