A Boost For SiIOS

To the Gazette: The excessive
dry year Of I'll was a pointer and
eye opener. 1t has taught farmers
to take due precaution, guarding
against shortage Of feed by storing
their crops in a way that makes it
nutritious palatable and handy. One
word describes this manner and it is
small one, silo. it merits your con-
sideration
Farmers Institutes ANIMALS, etc.,
this year are "chuck fui'' Of infor-
nation on silos fixing figures on cost
of several silos of various sizes and
construction.
In the writer's estimation there are
two constructions for you to con-
slider if you mean business. that is,
concrete and brick block. Wood
silos are o. X. ais long as they last but
are exceedingly short lived which
makes them expensive. The writer
built one Of the first two or three
silos in Redwood county, it was a
wood silo but like others has been
replaced by more substantial one,
concrete. Will also say in this con-
nection that the wood silos are not
short lived from decay as YOU may
suppose but from the natural SWELL
ing when wet and shrinking when
dry as long as there is any life" in
the wood the Tightening and looeen-
ing Of hoop is not practical as it in

SCHOOL ELECTION

Residents of School District No. 40,
near State Road station, are at logger
heads over the school question. One body
of citizens say no school election was
held in the district on June ], and no
notices of such an election had been
posted The opposite side says notices
of an election were posted on May 25,
and that the election was held on June
/, when James NJ. McCallister was elect
ed commissioner and clerk. The real
fight dwindles down to the election of
teacher for the school, Miss Bessie
Miller. daughter of Samuel B. Miller
and Miss NJ. Denning. daughter of James
Denning, being the applicants.
William II. Cooper. Harry H. Hance
and others are so positive that no elec-
tion was held in the district that they
have applied for a new election. They
say the present commissioners cannot
levy an assessment for taxes to raise
| funds for the teacher as well as money
to make Improvements to the school
house.
The other side by report filed with
4 the county authorities show that on
May 25 notices were posted in accord
ance with the law and that on Satur-
day, June J. at ? o'clock the election was
held. John j. Mccoy was chairman and
James NJ McCallister secretary. Sam
uel b. Miller. whose daughter is an APP
plicant for the school. was one of the
auditors of the books of the clerk of the
district. James NJ. McCallster, accord
ing TO the report, was elected clerk
Considerable feeling exists over the situ-
alton as the commissioners are proceed
ing with the selection Of the teacher by
a postal card vote of those having chill
dren in attendance at the school
The application TO hold another cleo
tion in the district has been held up as
the report of the election filed appears
to discredit the claim that no election
was held. because Mccoy has signed the
report James W. Denning, whose daugh-
ter is the other applicant for school
teacher was the other auditor, but he did
not sign the report as filed. Threats Of
mandamus proceedings have been made
but it is probable no legal steps will be
taken to prevent McCallister from serv-
ing as clerk.
