PASTORS REFUSAL TO STAY
REGRETTED BY CONGREGATION
CORDIAL INVITATION OF CHURCH
TO REV. ELDRED is DECLINED.
Many Former Pensioners at Anniver-
sary Services Yesterday.

The congregation and officers of the
Pewabic Methodist Episcopal church
deeply regret the declination by Rev.
M. III. Eldred. of the cordial and earn
est Invitation extended TO him at the
quarterly conference last week, To re-
main as pastor for another year. The
invitation came unanimously from the
church and the official board, but the
conviction on the part of Mr.. Eldrcd
that the fve-year limit should be re-
stored and adhered to I'm pastoral
tcnures, caused him To give a refusal
of the offer The relations between
Mr.. Eldred and the people of the Pewa-
bic Methodist Episcopal church, have
been of the warmcst and most sympa-
thetic and friendly nature, church and
pastor having worked together In
pleasant harmony during the five years
of Mr.. Eldreds passionate.
Il deeply appreciate the honor con-
ferred upon me by the church, and IL
Is with the deepest sorrow and re-
gret that l feel that | must leave for
a new field, as my stay at the Pewabic
has been of the most pleasant nature.
The church trustees have co-operated
with me in the upbuilding of the
church, and their unanimous request
that ! stay longer is deeply appreciat-
ed | have always maintained that
the church should adhere to the plan
of assigning pastors and that the five
year rule formerly in vogue should be
restored. This being my conviction

transferred to a new field. much as

Pains "Pompeii" Again.

Pains big open air spectacle, Last
Days of Pompeii," contains more dis
tinct features than any circus per-
Torrance ever offered. Principal, of
course, is the magnificent fireworks,
the great scenic display and the
startling earthquake and volcanic
eruption scene. But in addition to
these are the imposing pageants Of
Roman senators, priests, guards, cour-
tiers, gladiators, musicians, choir
bovs. flower girls, standard bearers,
etc, all gorgeously costumed; sensa-
tional aerial and acrobatic perform
ers; pretty ballots by trained prem
ieres and coryphees, including a won
derful fire dance, contests of the hip
podrome, such as wrestling, boxing,
fencing, vaulting, etc. It will be seen
again for the first time in years at
the Iowa State Fair.

MILLION DOLLAR
STOCK PARADE.

Iowa people who have never wit
messed the great stock parade which
is always held on the last day of the
State Fair have missed the sight Of a
lifetime. It is worth more to go see
than to catch a glimpse Of corona
ton parade or an inaugural display.
The horses and cattle that have won
the ribbons are brought out and
marched before the amphitheater,
each animal with his evidences of
prize winning, each one groomed per-
fectly, and all carefully handled. Tho
visitor gets q chance to compare
herds and breeds as well as individual
animals. Only the best of the ami;
mails are shown. Their value may
easily reach a million dollars; for the
Iowa State Fair attracts the very
best herds in the world and a larger
number of prize winning horses and
cattle than ever come together at any
other place.

The Wright brothers, Inventors OF

Iowa this year and show Iowa people
what success has been attained in the
perfection of the devices for flying.
The Wrights have worked hard and
faithfully to make their machines the

were the pioneers and have the sat
isfaction Of knowing that every other
machine that makes any pretense Of
flying is patterned after theirs. They
will be at the State Fair a whole
week and will send their best birdmen
up every day.

Races nj Iowa Fair.

The races at the Iowa State Fair
commence Saturday, August Goth,
and there will be six days Of racing
with the finest field Of horses ever
seen in the state. The purses aggre-
gate about $4,000, which calls for
the speediest animals that are on the
circuits. The program is complete in
every detail and in addition to the
races there will be splendid concerts
and choicest vaudeville entertain

The Fallen Leader.

If there is any prominent American
politician who, within the last year,
has fallen faster and farther in the
estimation of intelligent and fair mind
ed men than has Senator Cummips, we
would be obliged if someone would
name him. The fall began with the
famous speech in Chicago, in which
Senator Cummins, the fearless and i'm
maculate progressive, pleaded for the
reelection of rcactionary Republicans
like Cannon and Boutell and Mann, on
the theory that, "any Republican is
better than the best Democrat. 1t
gained in momentum when the dis
tinguished senator, having spent many
years of his life fighting for tariff re-
forms, announced himself opposed to
the Canadian agreement on the ground
that it would injure the Iowa farmer.
The falling leader lit on rocky
ground with thud that spattered him
over many miles of landscape, when
John Sharp Williams exposed the fact
that only six or seven years ago
Senator Cummins was pleading and
clamoring for Canadian reciprocity
and practically the same kind of reci-
procity that is covered in the pending
bill. At that time the senator was
eloquently assuring the Iowa farmers
that they would have nothing to fear
from such reciprocity, and that its
advantages would far outweigh its
disadvantages.
There is only one word that can pro
pe,ly characterize Senator Cummins'
attitude. It is-insincerity. The ar
guments he advanced in 1904, if they
were good then, are good to day. In
1904 he was, for the time being, a
statesman. To-day he is schemiDg
and self;seeking politician, unscrupu-
lously bent on advancing his own am
billions by putting Taft in a hole, "
and desperately seeking to build up his
faction of republican party by fill
clustering fight to prevent the Demo
cratic party from giving the people re.
lief from tariff exactions. Needless to
say he is not succeeding. He is put
ting only himself in the hole. He is
making Democracy stronger as he
makes insurgency weaker.-Omaha
World Herald.

6. Filling Cracks and Air Spaces
The silo should be air tight to pre-
vent more or less moldy silage.
Cracks in a wooden silo may be
filled with soft clay. Cracks in a
masonry silo should be cemented be-
fore filling. Silo doors should fit
tight.
z. Preventing Waste at the Top
Some waste at the top is unavoid-
able unless feeding commences as
soon as the silo is filled. It varies
from two inches, where care is ex-
ercised, to ten or twelve inches
where little or no precaution is
taken. Various preventive steps
nay be t11en but IN aoe tohr Of
TIE alb mIs&eb be thorous6ASp packed
and )evelied Oh. Then some put on
oat chaff or cut straw. Others soak
the top thoroughly with water and
then SOW with oats, which gcrmihate
and form thick covering, which
keeps out the air. An easy and sat
isfactory method is to pick the ears
of the last three Or four loads Of
corn put in, and then run the stalks
alone through the cutter into the
silo. Thoroughly tramp this and then
put on from twenty to thirty barrels
Of water. There will be only a thin
layer of waste with this method.
8. Cost Of Filling Silo cost
of filing the silo, cutting the corn in
the field, hauling it, running it
through the cutter, tramping. level
ing, varies from 40 cents to S1.OO per
ton. It depends on many factors,
distance of hauling, the weather, kind
of machinery used, and the organiza-
ton of the crew Of workers. One
successful dairy farmer says that the
following table represents the aver
age cost to him of putting up from
eighty-fve to ninety tons per day:
Four teams and drivers. $1,000
Corn binder, man and team. 1000
Cutter and engine and one man 1900
Two extra men to pitch-...-.-...-... 800
Two men in silo.............--........... 300
Thirty gallons gasoline.............. 800
Total cost per day..................$54.6O
Cost per ton, for eighty-five to
niety tons per day. 60 to 65 cents.
At the Iowa Experiment Station the
average cost for eight years has
been from 60 to Is cents per ton.
9. When To Open the Silo-The
silage may be used as soon as the
silo is filled, but for the first few
days it will be merely cut corn, as it
is not silage until it has gone
through the heating process. In a
week or ten days the real silage will
be reached. When managed this
way there is no waste at the top.
If allowed to stand several weeks,
there will be some waste in the form
of decayed corn, which should be re-
moved and used as fertilizer.
The fame of the experiment work
conducted at the Iowa State College
Experiment Station spreads far and
wide. A days mail brought re-
quest from the president of Guate-
mala for bulletins on sheep, cattle,
horses and mules, of which he had
heard through agriculturists way off
in Central America; also a reques
