We know of some instances where
common lath has been used, but it
seems to us better to use the lath made
from one-half-inch material.
The 2x4's will not need any sort Of
iron hoops. The inside sheeting and
the beveled lath are strong enough to
resist all lateral pressure. II inch
lumber is used and lath as suggest
ed, it would be well to put on the
outside some wooden hoops three feet
apart. These hoops may be nailed to
the 2x4s.
The capacity Of the silo is sufficient
for Is milk cows. We believe that a
silo IL feet in diameter and 80 to 80
feet high would be almost better to
construct, for 1t is necessary to re-
move about one and one-half to two
inches of silage per day, especially in
summer, If it is to be kept in good
condition.

BREEDING STOCK FOR DAIRY
In Selecting Cattle Real Test Must 30
Scales and Babcock Test--Con-
formation of Cow.

Professor W. ]. Kennedy Of the
Iowa station recommends the follow
ing in reference to the selection Of
breeding stock for the dairy:
In SELECTING dairy cattle the real test
must be the scales and the Babcock
tester. The GOV is a machine to con-
vert food into milk, thus she must
have a large middle and a strong con-
stitution to insure the best results.
She must also have a large udder.
large milk wells, large crooked milk
veins and good sized teats. Her head
should be clean and angular in ap-
pearance, with the eyes standing out
prominently. The neck should be
rather long and lean in appearance.
The shoulders pointed, and the back
bone rather prominent. The skin
should be loose and soft to the touch.
In selecting herd bulls, either mature
animals which have already demon
strated their worth as sires, or
younger animals from high testing
dams and sires only should be used.
The best and surest results will
always follow the use Of a mature
sire which has sired heifers with good
records. A good dairy bull should be
kept until he is IL or Is years old, in
fact as long as he Is a sure sire. Real
good sires are SO are that when we
do find one, he should die only OF old
age. All breeders Of dairy cattle
should secure yearly tests on each and
every COW in the herd. Shorter tests
do not really mean very much. 1t is
the COW that stays by her job that Is
really valuable.

A great deal of butter that sells for

SUBMITS PROPOSITION
FOR FORMAL PURCHASE
Council Passes Resolution Authorize
ing Offer of SAB, 1850 for the
Plant and Real Estate Holdings If
Light and Water Company,

AS a climax to the resolution in
troduced at the previous IN Getting Of
the council looking toward the max
ing of formal offer for the plant
and realty holdings of the Virginia
Electric Power & Water company,
which was tabled because of defects,
the council at the Tuesday evening
session considered and passed by
unanimous vote a resolution making
formal proffer of $443,736.S9 for the
plant, franchise and realty holdings
of the company, written offer to be
rendered them with a provision that
written acceptance or rejection of the
offer must be made within thirty
days
The resolution recites that the Of
fer is made in accordance with the
written proposition of the company
submitted to the city through the
former council 3n December 26,
1911, resulting in the appointment
of Burns & Mcdonnell as appraisers
of the plant and of Alexander Reid,
John Ketola, G. E. Moore, Thomas
Gill and Adolph Keller as appraisers
of the realty holdings, which ap-
parisals were submitted near the
close of the term of the former ad.
ministration. '
The action of the company il the
premises, in consideration of the ap-
praised valuation placed by Burns &
Mcdonnell, is scarce problematical.
The next move of the council, it is
anticipated, will either be an action
for the condemnation of the plant or
a movement looking toward the
building of new plant in competi-
tion, eithe rof which actions would
doubtless result in a settlement by
the courts at cost of many thou
sands of dollars to the tax payers Of
the city. =. VI IT. Ill. ~

HOSPITAL FOR LUMBER
COMPANY EMPLOYEES
DR.. Mcintyre of Chicago Has Let
Contract for New Hospital Build
ing to Be Erected on Virginia Ave.
nue-Shaver and Boylan Secure
Contract

DR.. E. Fl. Mcintyre of Chicago has
let the contract for the erection of
a large and modern hospital building
which will be erected on the west
side of Virginia avenue between Pop
lar and Cedar streets. The building
will be of frame construction, 45x65
feet, two stories with an eight-foot
basement. w. B. Shaver, the we'll
known local building contractor, will
superintend it's construction, and
Roylan & Co. has secured the con-
tract for the putting in of the plumb
ing and heating system. When the
structure is completed it will be one
of the most modern of hospital build
ings in this section of the country
DR.. Mcintyre, who las had consid-
erable experience in the practice OF
medicine and stands high as a ply
sician and surgeon, will have charge
of this hospital when completed and
will be assisted in his work by an
able corps Of physicians and nurses
The James Sullivan house, which
is located on West Spruce street, will
| be removed to the lot adjoining the
new hospital building, and remodeled
into a modern residence for the ac-
commodation of DR.. Mcintyre and his
family. The remodeling plans for
this residence were drawn by C. K.
Shand of this city, who is consid-
cred one Of the best architects in the
country, and are said to comply in it's
construction into one of the most
modern residences in the city.
The new hospital is being built
mainly for the purpose of taking care
of the employees of the Virginia &
Rainy Lake company In case of an
accident or sickness Detailing them
or any member of their families. This
company has in it's employ between
5000 and 1000 men the year around

tai fund established by the company.
This entities each employee or any
member of his family to hospital
service or physicians care at any
time during the life time of the con-
tract held by such employee. As
there are several hundred families
entitled to such hospital service and
physician's care the hospital corps
will, in the natural course Of events,
no. doubt have. q considerable mum

Well, it's come and gone, and ev-
erybody who celebrated in Virginia
had the time of their lives if il was
excitement and enjoyment they
sought. for from the time of the,
sunrise salute of the Oliver battery
until the passing of the Mardi Gras
pageant IN the evening there was
"something doing" every moment
of the day, while music led the
way to all events and assisted in
infusing the spirit of the day into
thousands who thronged the city
throughout the day and evening.
; And the committee in charge had
left nothing undone, even to
the perfecting of special arrange
meuts with the weather man for
the finest day to be wished.
The parade, forming at the City
Hall square promptly at 900 a. M,
was an imposing spectacle, nearly
every business house in the city be-
ing represented with elaborate
floats, the parade as a whole under
the able guidance of W. H. Eaton

his son, II. !. Eaton, being accorded
the unqualified honor of being the
finest ever presented for the inspec-
tion of the citizens of the ranges.
Led by the Virginia City Band, the
line Of march covered several of the
principal streets of the city, the
Mohami and Boys Military Bands
and the famous Buck Tail Drum
Corps assisting in infusing spirit
into the line of march at every
step. The procession stopped at
