Tentative plans submitted by Chicago
architects for the new Young Mems Chris

story structure of unique design. The
ten stories will be constructed if the sub

massive design, built of cream colored

When Mrs. Daisy Grace goes to triaF4
Monday morning charged with having
attempted to kill her husband, Eugene
Grace. she will have no bitterness i'm
her heart for him Despite the fact
that he has been quoted often and at
length as saying that he believed her
guilty, she still cares for him and is
insistent in the belief that he was not

The basis Of her defense will con-

that she could not have possibly shot
Eugene. While in Philadelphia Mrs.
Grace stated that her husband knew
who shot him, that she knew, and that
in three minute statement she could
clear hirself before any jury. She had
nothing to add to this statement today,

The DUCK and the Trout.

AS a Virginian was fishing below a
milldam near a village in his state so
a contributor writes to the Companion.
he accidentally threw his line across
duck. which suddenly turned round,
twisted the gut about its neck, and
fixed the dropper-1y in its breast
Thus entangled and hooked, 'he
duck soon broke off the gut above he
dropper, and sailed down the stream
with the other fly trailing hcbiud il.
1t had no gone far before a trout about
a pound and a half in weight took he
fly.
Then began an extraordinary con.
test. While the trout struggled. The
terror OF the duck was very evident;
II fluttered its wings and dragged the
fish. When the trout grew more quiet
the duck gave way, and suffered itself
TO be drawn under some bushes, at The
edge Of the stream. When the s'Ug-
gle was renewed the ducks head was
frequently drawn under the water
By chance, however, the gut aot
across a branch that hung downward
into the water, when the duck taking
advantage of the purchase that this
circumstance gave il, dragged the fish
from its hole and obliged It TO show
its head above water. Then it became
contest Of life and death. The trout
was in its last agonies and the duck
in very weak state. when the gut
broke and suffered each to go his own
way.
The man who saw this strange COM
bat stoutly afiirms the truth OF every
detail.-Youth's Companion.

GOOD CARE IN HOT WEATHER
That Hens and Young Chickens
Have Plenty Fresh Water.

During the spring and summer
months constant care must be taken
70 see that the hens and young chick
ems have plenty of water and shade.
says a writer in the Iowa Homestead.
The hens cannot manufacture eggs
without liberal supply of water, as
a large per cent. OF eggs is composed
Of water. The growing flock, too, will
not develop properly If half famished
from thirst. This may mean no win
ter eggs from the pullets.
II one would take the best care Of
the flock he should give 1t fresh water
in the morning and just after noon.
The water that stands in a fountain
very long becomes stale and un-
healthy. Water should always be
pure and the vessels clean. Il is wise
to keep the water vessels in the shade
Of the house or trees all the day
This leads TO the important question
of shade No fowls will do well in
warm weather without sufficient
shade. have made It a special point
to notice my hens in the summer, and
] have discovered that along toward
the middle Of the day they will seek
shelter from the suns hot rays. They
will either retire TO the shade OF a
tree or the shelter Of the poultry
house They prefer to get away from
the house If they can find suitable
shade elsewhere. If no trees are
growing in the yard and there are no
bushes or shrubbery of any kind
where the flock may find shade it
will be well to construct an artificial
shade by setting posts into the
ground. one at each corner of par
allelogram plot. Nail crosspieces TO
these and place boards on them. Here
the hens may find retreat from the hot
sun.

WHEN TO CUT SIL0 CORN
EXPERIENCE HAS SHOWN WHEN
CROP SHOULD BE CUT.
BY C. II. Eekes. Professor Of Dairy
Husbandry College Of Asrieul-
ture, University Of Missouri.

Missouri farmers are learning by
experience that corn for silage should
be cut later in its stage of develop
ment than has been the practice here
tofore. Corn cut and put into the silo
when the ears are Just beginning tC
form usually results in sour silage.
Moreover at this stage OF growth the
ear contains comparatively small
amount Of food and is mostly water
Some OF the feeding value of the ST.
lage is lost il the corn is cut too
early.
The proper stage TO cut corn for
silage is when II shows the first sign
Of ripening. In a year of normal rain
fall this is when the husks first begin
to turn yellow at the end OF the ear,
while the leaves of the plant are still
ereenJ AT this time the kernels are
entirely past the milk stage and are
glazed and dented. Sllage made from
such corn does not develop much acid,
as when cut in less mature stage,
although it still develops a sufficient
amount to preserve II.
If the corn crop gets past this point
before II is possible TO put in the silo,
and the leaves and husks are dried,
It is always advisable to add some
water. The cut corn as found in the
silo at filling time should feel moist
TO the touch. Corn can be put into
the silo with reasonable success even
up to the time when the leaves are
nearly dry, provided a sufficient
amount OF water is used to wet IT up.
No bad results follow the use OF too
much water 1t means that there will
be more water TO carry out when the
silage Is fed.
on the other hand, II too little water
is used. the silage may spoil by the
formation OF mould, For this reason
II is advisable to be on the safe side
and use too much rather than too lit
tie water The water may be added
TO the silage at the time Of filling by
running It into the blower with a hose
from a barrel, or inconyenient, it may
be added to the sllage in the silo as
the flling progresses.
In putting kaffir corn or sorghum
into the silo, the seed should be past
the milk stage and the stalks begin.
