SIDNEY MANNING'S
 BROTHER ARRIVES
COMES TO ASSIST IN lNVESTi GATlNG THE CAUSE OF HIS
 6RoTHER DEATH.
Officers Investigating but No New Developments Have Been
 Unearthed.

Sheriff Hale is still working on the case of the mysterious death of Sid ney Manning, the aged recluse, who was burned to death at his home on the Cedar Glades road early Sunday morning, but no new developments have rewarded the sheriff's efforts.
 Dr Manning of Dardanelle, broth CT of the deceased, arrived in the city yesterday, and is aiding the sher- riff in his investigation to determine the exact cause and manner of the death.
 Yesterday Sheriff Hale and Dr. Man ming spent the day in the vicinity of the Manning farm, talking with neigh bors and making a close investiga- tion of the occurrences of the last few days of Manning's life.
 According to the sheriff Manning had been to the city Saturday and drawn some money. Out of this he had paid the woman who did his laundry work. and the woman stated that he had a considerable amount, a roll of bills. left after paying her It is also stated that Manning wore a heavy silver watch. having it on the last time he was seen alive. The of ficers say no money was found on the body or about the house. and that the watch is also missing. These facts 1t is believed by the officials, point
 O foul play, although both money and watch may have been disposed of by Manning in some manner not yet dis covered.
 It was learned today that when Manning came to the city, little over three years ago. he deposited quite a sum of money in one of the local banks During his residence here he has withdrawn portions of this account from time to time. The amounts withdrawn have never been large, not exceeding $50. His last withdrawel was on August 2, at which time he drew small sum. It is supposed that this money was withdrawn from de- posit in amounts necessary to meet in- cidental and living expenses, and at the time of his death Manning had drawn most of the original deposit from the bank.
 Sheriff Hale states that he is unable to learn but little of the life of Man ming, and especially but little of his actions during the last few days of his life from the neighbors. Whether this is due to reticenee on the part of the neighbors or to the fact that Man. ming mingled but little with the neigh bors and talked little of his affairs is not known. The sheriff is still working on tlhe case and believes that the circumstances point to foul play.

FIRST SILOS BUILT
 IN GARLAND COUNTY
MRS. 4. w. FILES BUILDS TWO ON HER DAIRY FARM, THREE
 MILES FROM CITY.
Will Reoin Filling Them on Thursday and the Public Is Invited to
 Inspect Them.

Mrs. A. w. Files, owner of a splcn did dairy farm, three and onehalf miles east of Oaklawn, is responsible for instituting an innovation among the farmers of Garland county in the erection of two 100-ton silos.
 The sllo Is well known to the farm CTS of the north and west but they arc so little known in the south. and especially in this section of Arkansas that brief explanation of this great feed saver and preseryer will be in order
 A silo is nathing more or less than giant feed preseryer for stock, pre- serving in a marked degree green feed for stock during the winter months and afiording them a quality of feed that cannot be obtained in any other manner
 In form the silo resembles nothing more than a city water stand pipe It is a giant iron or steel cylinder stand ing high in the air and capable of stor ing anywhere from 50 to 250 tons of green feed It is built with a number of doors from bottom to top, by which the feed can he gradually ta- ken out during the winter months and fed to stock as desired
 Corn is the staple article of feed to be stored, but almost any kind Of grain can be utilized The manner of preserving the feed can be readily

MAYOR WATERS RECEIVES AS suRANcE THAT WORK WILL

Chief Clerk Ucker Says It VIII Be Pushed as Rapidly as It Pos

A telegram received from Mayor w. " Waters. now in Washington. con veys the cheerful intelligence that a government engineer has been as siRned to the work of making the sur vev and estimate of cost of the pro posed Central avenue drainage sys- tenn, which has been provided for by act Of congress, and that the engineer and his assistants will arrive here on September I to begin the actual preliminary work on the big sewer age system.
 Congress recently made an appro- priation of si0.000 for the purpose oi making the necessary survey and es timates, but the matter had not been acted upon further by the interior de parfment, until Mayor Waters arrival in Washington and consultation was held with the department officials. In his telegram Mayor Waters states that Chief Clerk ticker of the depart ment always loyal friend of this re sort. had given him promise that the work on this system would be pushed as rapidly as it was possible to push federal work.

 With the work thus auspiciously be- gun there can be no further question of it's successful completion. and in the lasting ani permanent style in which the federal government com pletes all its improvement work.
 Much credit is due Mayor Waters for his interest in the citys welfare, and everyone will welcome the assur- ance which ne has received personally that the work will start at once and be pushed to successful completion.

realized when it is stated that it is put up much the same as sauer kraut. The green corn from the fiells, from the ground to the tassle is mangled, stalks, ears and all 1t is packed closely in the silo and covered with it's own juices as far as possible, but like kraut must be completely covered with liquid to preserve it. The silo is alright at the top, and as the feed is taken from the side doors the solid feed is covered with liquid, thereby maintaining it's green quality.
 By the use of the silo every particle of nonrishment in the fodder is main tained and utilized Stock eat it as greedily as they would green food direct from the field and it's feeding quality is far superior to field stacked fodder or feed from any other kind of storage
 The corn on Mrs. Files farm. which surrounds the silos, is now ready to be placed in the big stand pipe and the cutting will commence on Thurs day. The corn will be cut, mangled for packing and placed in the silo
 A number of prominent local people who are interested in the promotion of agriculture are planning to be pres ent and watch the process. Senator Hamp Williams, Secretary Bedding of the Business Mems League. and many others are planning to be present Everyone is invited, especially stock men and farmers, to come and inspect this farm convenience and money saver which ha meant so much

Slams That ForeteII Weather.

The country dweller has a thousand
weather signs that the city man never
knows. A red sunset means very little
to the man in the street, but to the
man among the lanes it indicates rain
and bad weather. Smoke that rises
straight in the air is another Of the
signs that farmer notices and fore
tells bad weather. Circles about the
moon and sun, streaks of greasy
clouds and the peculiar actions of
birds and domestic animals are all in
dications of some change in the
weather to the man whose eye has
been trained to recognize the signs.
