 Little things like bacilu will live in a temperature of above 211 degrees F Experimental observations of stokers have shown that man is a cousin to the salamander. Dante made six fiery circles of hell and felt constrained to resort to ice for the seventh and last condemnation of souls. Heat, in other words, is relative term. Heat is beneficient if you Ike things hot. It depends on the point of view. Heat is supposed to be enervating The hook worm Is engendered by 1t.

FILE MILL CITY BRIDGE CASE
Appeal of Road From Judgment Of the
.. State Supreme Court.

The record in the appeal of the
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul rail-
road from the judgment Of the SUI
preme court of Minnesota in the rail-
roads case against the city Of Min
neapolis growing out of the construc-
ton of bridge over the canal be-
tween Lake of the Isles and Lake
Calhoun, has been docketed in the
supreme court of the United States.
The case started in the Fourth ju-
dicial district for Hennepin county on
an agreed statement Of the facts and
was appealed to the supreme court Of
the state, where the city won by a
divided court, and is now before the
federal supreme court on writ of
error to the highest court of Mime
sofa. Judge Simpson wrote the opin-
ion Of the court, but a dissenting
opinion was written by Judge Start.
The question is whether the city or
the railroad shall bear the full ex-
pense of constructing the bridge
across the canal to carry the railroad
tracks which now rest on an embank-
ment, the city. requiring certain
type of architecture in the bridge,
more expensive than the type usually
constructed by the railroads.

with great eagerness, with results like
those from feeding on grass; the
flesh being of high quality. With it, a
smaller amount of high priced con-
centrates is necessary to form bal
anced ration.
Professor Mumford of Illinois de-
clares that "silage furnishe the best
means of storing the entire { n crop,
a part of which is now only partially
utilized" and this with minimum
waste" Also that, when supplement-
ed with oats and hay used for winter
ing calves intended for beef produc-
ton, corn silage will produce thirty
five pounds more gain per steer than
shock corn similarly supplemented.
Illinois Bulletin No. 73 says, in sum-
ming up the results of some careful
experiments: Where silage, oats
and hay were fed, 1855 pounds of
meat were produced per acre" cor
land devoted to raising the feed.
where shock corn, oats and hay
were fed, 337S1 pounds were pro-
duced per acre." This shows it to be
possible to get 47.45 pounds more meat
from an acre of corn put in the silo.

Corn Silage in
Beef Production.
BY c. r. Barns, Minnesota Uni
versity Farm.

i. ! !. i. i. i. \ X i. !. !. !: !. !. i. J. \
The rapidity with which silos are
being erected on dairy farms in all
parts of Minnesota affords the best
possible evidence that the value Of
corn silage as feed for dairy COWS is
now universally recognized. Such
recognition carries with it large saw
ing of labor, an immense economy of
feed and an encouraging increment Of
gain to the farmer. The rapidity with
which it has spread, furthermore, af
fords striking lesson as to the value
of the educational propaganda carried
on by the Minnesota College of Agri-
culture. But for that work, the bene-
fits brought by the silo, in five years,
within the comprehension of the whole
dairy community, would have required
five or ten times as long to extend as
far. Every silo erected is thus mon
ument to the swift beneficence of edu-
cation as applied to agriculture.
But the value of silage is by no
the dairy herd. Repeated experiments
demonstrate its superior merits, also,
as feed for fattening cattle. In en-
silage the whole of the corn plant, in
cluding the stems, is converted into
succulent and nourishing food. When
fed as either stover, fodder corn or
bundle corn, most of the stems are re-
jected, and are of value only as they
gradually add to the humus of the soil.
Important as this consideration is,
however, it is eclipsed by the superior
appetizing and flesh producing quail
ties of silage.
Silage comes nearer than any other
feed to affording, in winter, an equiva-
lent for the rich grasses on which, in
the spring and early summer, beef
cattle make their best ard most profit
able growth. ''If summer conditions
as to feed could be continued through
the winter, we should dwell in cat
tie raiser's paradise" Cattle eat it

BUILDING A CHARACTER.


Character is the wool OF honor
from which a coat Of mail can be
woven that the swiftest arrow Of
shame or the keenest knife Of disre-
pute cannot pierce. Every thought
that enters our mind. every act we
do and every word we utter adds
a link to the golden chain Of charac-
ter. Our failures and our successes
help to form a reputation that may
be destroyed by an external force,
but the destruction Of a character
can be effected only by some in
temal force.
