Silos fire Money Makers For
-FQrn1erS
WHAT PETER MILLER OF MORRIS, SAYS ABOUT s,Los
At the State Dairymen's convention

At the State Dairymen's convention
last March, Peter Miller, president OF
the Central Minnesota Butter Makers
association, made the following ad'
dress on silos. The paper is reprinted
owing to the information contained
therein, and on account OF the interest
manifested in the silo at the conVen-
ton. The silo solves to great ex-
tent the problem Of feed for a dairy
herd on the North Dakota farm. 1t
means the growing of some corn each
year and the doing away with depend
ence on prairie hay. Mr.. Miller said:
I'm describing the possibilities OF
the silo in feeding dairy stock, 1t will
be necessary for me to refer to condi'
tons as l find them in the country
surrounding my home town, Morris,
Minnesota, as l have not had the ad'
vantage Of much travel over the state
to study the feeding facilities of other
places. The first silos were built in
the fall of 1909, and l wish to give
you the figures of one of my patrons
for five months before he had silo
and the same period the following
year, after having built and filled a
silo. The first figures are from Nov
ember l, 1908, to April I, 1909. In
these five months he received from
II cows $379.6O. The next year he
received in the same months $740.38,
and the part that should receive your
best attention is this, that the amount
he received the last year did not cost
him as much to produce as the year
before. So it is safe to say that he
fore than doubled his net income by
the use of the silo the first year.
II shall now give you the best fig
ures from another farmer who built
a silo last summer. He MIXED thir.
teen cows during the month of Janu-
airy, 1911. He produced II 500 pounds
of milk, average test 3.S; amount Of
butterfat 436 pounds; average price
was 20 cents. The total value Of but
terfat was $126.44; the cost Of, pro-
duction was as follows:
80 lbs. Of ensilage per cow per
day, 1890 lbs. at 81 per ton $3.50
10 lbs. of hay per COW per day,
4,O30 lbs. at S. ............ 1907
2 lbs. OF bran per COW per day,
SOC lbs. at $21 .......... SAG
2 lbs. of oats per cow per day,
S06 lbs. at $40 ............. SOC
2 IL lbs. screenings per COW per
day, 1907 lbs. at $12 ........ Goa
l Id. of oil meal per COW per day,
400 lbs. at $34 .............. 6.85

MEXICO AND THE EXTRA SESSION

ana expresses the opinion that the
president had the Mexican business in
view in calling congress together in
extra session. On the eve, as he was
of ordering the troops to the Rio
Grande, says the Washington Star
and approaching the gravity and the
possibilities Of the step, he wanted
congress at hand in case an emer-
gency arose. OF course, he also want
ed action on the Canadian trade pact
but the former was the more pressing
and important of the two matters, and
the determining factor in the presi-
dents proclamation.
Well, if this is true, good for the
president! He is appealing to body
of mighty good Americans. They will
soon be pledged, as he is, to allegiance
to the constitution. They will help
him preserve, protect and defend that
instrument. They will listen with
great respect to anything he may sub
nit on that subject, and support him
in every reasonable position he may
have taken before their assembling.
In the past fifteen years there have
been two exhibitions of the national
spirit-both very gratifying-in the
face of national duty. In both cases
party DIVISIONS disappeared. The two
great parties merged in appraising
what should be done.
Mr.. Cleveland's message in the Ven
ezulan controversy was criticized in
some republican and some democratic
quarters, but not to the extent of en-.
couraging Great Britain with the sug-
gestion that in case of clash we as
a people would be divided. Had the
matter-which was happily composed
been pressed to an extreme, the
presidents support would have been
strong in all quarters.
In the case of Spain, it was the
democratic party in congress which
more frequently than his own party
urged President Mckinley to inter.
vene in Cuba. 1t claimed, indeed, the
credit of the Intervention, though, as
was afterward made plain, the pres:-
dent, instead of dawdling, was quietly
preparing for what he as we'll as 9TH
ers saw was inevitable. And when
the clash came, the response came
from both parties and all sections.
There was but one party in the Unit
ed States, and that the party of up
holding the government in the task it
had undertaken.
1t is very likely that the public is
not advised as to the full details of
the presidents course. But there is
this assurance: that, being no jingo
he has not played recklessly, or to the
galleries; that his information has
satisfied him; that he has the supDort
OF his cabinet, and as no fear of any
revelations as to his action. His res.
ervations, we may all be sure, have
been compatible with the public inter.
ests, and neither politics nor personal
ambition has swayed him in any step
he has taken.
In this business congress, in session.
may be curious. but is not likely to
be captious. And the president is not
likely at any stage of the game to
abuse his powers. either by swasger
or by a strained Interpretation OF the
situation.

ENJOYABLE TIME AT wAYMART.

The Ensign House was the scene
of a splendid banquet Thursday
evening, Nov. 2, at eight o'clock.
The spacious and well-appointed
house was ideal for such a function,
and lent the charm of home-likeness
to the occasion. All present were
lavish in their praise of the ban
quet and many say it will long ling
er in memory as joyous reflection.
The banquet was under the auspices
of the official board of the M. E.

were: Mrs. f. r. Varcoe, Mrs. E. P.
