Wild Flowers to Beautify City
Parks.

Fort Worth. TeX.-Under the di-
rection Of Park Superintendent Vim
hedge bushels Of seeds from wild
flowers will be gathered this spring
and summer and later planted in the
Fort Worth parks. He has discov-
cred wild flowers in great profusion
over the country that are native TO
this part of the world, and he pro-
poses TO beautify Fort Worth with
them. At several of the parks half
acre tracts will be given over to these
wild flowers. If Mr.. Vinnedge car
ries out his plans special days may
be named for the various flowers,
following the custom that has been
a great success in Kansas City. Mr..

planted trere. Plans have been CON-
pleted for remodeling the lorse fonn-
tain near the Texas and Pacific de-

Science Jottings.

One morning early last Novem-
Der the inhabitants of Trinidad were
surprised to find that during the
night a volcanic island had emerged
from the sea off the southern coast
Of the island. When FIRST seen it ap-
peared 70 be a mudbank about 80
feet across - feet high. A few hours
later spectators saw the island burst
into flames, which rose hundreds of
feet into the air and which were re-
placed by dense clouds of stiiing
smoke. The flames were followed by
loud reports, which we're heard all
along the coast. The Governor OF
Trinidad and other officials visited
the next day and thoroughly
explored the island. There we're two
craters on it, one of which constant

FRIDAY, JUNE z, 1912.
BOTH PARTIES ENTITLED TO A
EQUARE DEAL.

If the city water rate is toe high,
ii should be reduced. Doubtless, a
petition signed by a number OF re-
putable citizens and presented to the
city council showing that the rates
are too high would result in secur-
ing reasonable rates. With the flat
rates now in force, however, it is APP
parent that the city does not get a
square deal. Almost everyone using
water or light on a flat rate is al
most certain TO use either much
~extravagent than would in the case if
used by measure. There are some
people who keep the hose running
in their yards or gardens all night
long-not once in a while, but every
night. The drain on the water
plant through this abuse is heavy,
and the practice is plainly an i'm
position. If every user of the water
should do likewise, it is evident that
it would be almost impossible to Sc
cure sufficient pressure in the mains,
in case of fire. There is no justice in
permitting one citizen to use the
water thus ad libitum, when others
are using no more than they pay for.
This is what The Herald means,
when it a y that, with the meter
system, the city will get a square
deal. If the citizens do not feel that
they are getting a square deal in the
rates charged. they can easily induce
the city council to reduce the rates,
by proving their case.

DISHONEST ALDERMEN TRAPPED

1t will not surprise anybody that
five councilmen at Atlantic City have
confessed to taking brides. They
have merely put on record a state of
fact at which most people familiar
with the town have guessed for a
good while.
The interest in the exposure comes
from the ease with which the bribe-
takers were trapped, from the Nne
example of government for what
there is in it" which the case af-
fords and from the light which it
throws upon the sources of the fam
liar cry for "a wide-open town
Atlantic City has been a larger and
more perfect example of what Coney
small enough so that the corruption
which skulks more or less furtively
in large cities was ablessto lay its
hands on all possibles. sources of rev
enue, legitimate and otherwise. The
end came because some Of the big
hotel -proprietars tired-.aE the exae-
lions of the local machine and CON
cluded that it would be cheaper to
raise a 500, 600 exposure fund than
to pay blackmail and the high taxes
which the machine was imposing on
their property.
The ease with which Burns trap
ped the councilmen is almost comic.
He actually put through the council
an ordinance to substitute concrete
for Atlantic City's famoum Board
walk, at a cost to the taxpayers Of
81, 900 900. He did this by buying
votes in the council for $500 each,
and when the mayor vetoed the ordi-
nance he says the councilmen came
back and offered to pass it owe the
veto for an extra 1000 a head. But
he had dictograph reports of the
talks in which his agents had paid
over the money, and as they had reg
istered the number of the bills paid,
he didn't make the additional invest
ment. Instead, he sem for the coun-
cilmen, read to them the ~dictagraph
reports Of their conversations, and
five Of them confessed. Their con-
fessions are being used against the
sixth man, who refused to confess,
and who is running for city commits
although he is under indict-
ment for the election frauds of last
year.
For years the efforts of some citi-
zens at Atlantic City TO check gam
bling and vice there have been met
by the cry that we NEEDED one wide
open American resort on the model
Of Monte Carlo. This case reveals
who needed" the wide-open town.
The reputable hotel men are the ones
who subscribed for the investigation
and hired the detectives. because
they could no longer stand the bleed
ing by political leeches.-Brooklyn

FILLING AND CARE OF SILO
Greater Danger Of Putting Up Silage
Too Dry Rather Than Too Moist
Keep Out Air.

Corn Is ready to be cut for silage
when the grain Is In the dent and
glazed, but can still be broken with
the thumb nail. says a University of
Missouri press bulletin. At this stage
under normal conditions the two or
three bottom leaves will be turning
brown and the shuck will be turning
yellow Mt the end. There Is greater
danger OF putting up silage too dry
rather than too moist. In a stave silo
the slaves should be ughtened up to
exclude the air and generally loosened
little after the silage swells tho
slaves. The inside wall OF concrete
silo should be washed with thin mix
ture OF cement and water every two or
three years. This fills the pores and
keeps the air from the silage.
1t will take at least six teams to
keep the average siiage cutter busy
Corn should not be cut down too far
ahead or It Will dry out too much. Two
men should work In the silo distrib-
uting the silage with forks Where
silage distributor is used one man Is
suh'Ni'ht' htS Shoulu Keep lHt bllaH8
higher at the walls than in the CEN
ter and should continually tramp the
silage next to the walls. The tramp
ing is especially to keep out the air.
When possible allow the machine to
sNnd two or three days and refill to
make use of all the capacity. Finish
filling the silo by running in load OF
grass and weeds. This will rot and
seal the top and prevent having to
throw out the same amount OF spoiled
sllage
The silage should feel wet after 1t
is cut in the silo. II the corn is very
mature when cut and Is therefore too
dry add water. A small stream may
be run into the blower from barrel
or tank 1t is especially important
that the silage be well tramped. The
blower should be run few minutes
every morning in order to clear the
atmosphere before anyone enters tho
silo.
The above instructions cover the i'm
portant points in filling a silo.
