Wharton, a mar Of about so years Of
age: died in a jamestown hospital, fol-

CORN FODDER STACK

BY HUNTER

And Declares It a Salts

That the plan Of stacking corn fod-
der Is a good n is the opinion Of A.
l. Hunter of thic city and in a let
ter which he has just written to "The
Farmer," an agricultural publication,
ne sets forth the success attained by
him in that particular field. Mr..
Hunters letter follows: -
1.-THE Farmer:
Having noticed in your good pa.
per numerous inquiries from farmers
how best to handle corr fodder for
winter feeding in the absence Of a silo,
and noticing particularly the inquiry
and your answer in issue Of October
Z. l take pleasure in giving you my
personal experience.
A soon as blowing is done. pre-
sumably from November / to Is, haul
your corn fodder from the field to the
feed lot. before the rains and melting
SHOWS freeze 1t to the ground. Stack
In long. narrow ricks, not over eight
to ten feet high on account Of the
weight as follows-put one foot or
more OF dry straw on the ground. then
the fodder on the straw. tops inside
and the butts out, lap from two to
can run an extra row through the mid
die as a binder. Then another lay
er Of dry straw. the condition Of the
corn determining the amount of straw
used. and so on until the stack is
finished. The process Of sweating
which the fodder will surely pass
through f1avors the straw and stock
will eat as we'll as the best OF hay.
I'm feeding. the most economical
way to handle the stack is to use a
hay knife. cutting off end of stack each
day amount to be used.
ANY who have spent hours in
North Dakota digging shocks out of
the snow and frozen ground will ap-
preciate this. Just try it once"

hARR0WEsCAPEFR DEATH
Axe Fell From Top of Pole and Hit
Telephone Man in Shoulder
Missed Head by an Inch,

IeIepilOno MAI In shoulder
Missed Head by an Inch.
One Of the most narrow escapes
from sudden death ever chronicled in
this city occurred about Sis o'clock
Friday afternoon when a handaxe us-
ed by a telephone linesman, who was
at work at the top of a pole, fell from
its holster and struck Carl ]. Ander-
son. another employee Of the Tr-iState
Telephone company on the right
shoulder.
The blade of the axe struck with
one corner down. and missing Ander-
sons head by about an inch, cut a
cash in his shoulder about two inches
deep. The blade falling from a
height of thirty-fve feet struck with
terrific force and went through to
the bone, the clothing of the man
probably saving him from more seri-
Gus injury.
Anderson was hurried to a physi-
clan who took three stitches in the
wound. The victim Of the peculiar ac-
cident was sufficiently recovered from
the shock to walk down to the tele-
phone office and talk it over with 9TH
er employees. He lays the accident to
the fact that Friday the Thirteenth
always had been a hoodoo day for
him.
The crew with which Anderson was
working, was putting crossarms on
poles on Oak street when the accident
occurred.
