Mr.. To,mey. ut must be remember
ed, however, that after thawing, the
silage will mold readily and so must be
fed almost Immediately. During cold
weather it is wise to keep the edges of
the silage in the silo somewhat lower
than the center A good way to thaw
out the frozen material is too cover it
with silage that is not frozen Some
cover the silage in the silo with a
blanket. Another way to thaw it is to
fill the silage cart and let it stand in a
warm place over night Some people
hang a lighted lantern in the silo to
keep the frost out. /"

A PROCLAMATION


The immense and steadily i'll
creasing fire losses i'll our state and
nation are and should be the only
argument necessary to stimulate
our people to an active campaign
to eliminate or largely reduce this
burdensome and total waste OF life
and property.
The five mutual fire insurance
companies of our state alone dur
ing the year ending August I,
1911, paid to their policy holders
and for expenses $50, $50, and for
the year ending August 1, 1912,
these same FIVE companies paid for
the same purposes S537,632. show
ing an increase of over SCI 900 in
these mutual companies alone.
Add to the above the losses sus-
tanned by the stock companies III
Vermont and the aggregate loss
will largely exceed one million OF
dollars annually in Vermont,
The aggregate loss of property III
Our country for the year of 1911
was in excess of S2I7 900, 900, over
So, 200, 900 in excess Of the fire
losses of 1910, and, in addition, i'll
1910 nearly $50 persons died i'll
buildings destroyed by fire and
nearly 1900 lost their lives as the
result of burns, and when it is
estimated that many of these lives
and fully $50, 900, 900 of this loss
of property is due to carelessness
and should have been prevented,
this subject should appeal to us as
one surely of great Importance.
The social as we'll as the econo-
mic welfare of our people is
ever improved through educational
methods and thus it has seemed
advisable to call the attention of
the citizens of our state to those
conditions which are permitting
this immense loss and urge them to
carefully consider those methods
which should surely prevent one
half of this waste of life and
property.
Believing that the welfare OF
Vermont so demands, l, John A.
Mead, Governor, do hereby desig-
nate Wednesday, the 9th day OF
October, A. D., 1915. as Fire Pre-
vention Day, and do hereby call
upon our people to devote the day
to inspecting their buildings and
premesis, thoroughly removing all
unsightly and combustible ma
terial, to carefully repairing and
cleaning all parts of their heating
apparatus. All SCOT and ashes

hou Ia be removed, rendering the
.ame safe for winter use. Boards
If ed ucation should personally ex-
ami Ie the institutions in their
charge. City and village authori-
ties should cooperate with them
and with the public generally in
the adoption and enforcement of
such rules and regulations as will
prevent this enormous and constant
drain upon the resources of our
state. The superintendent and
teachers of our schools should care
fully consider this eminent danger.
Fire drills should be had regularly
and every means of safety pro-
vided. l invite the public press
to take an active part i'll awakening
the public to the Importance of this
movement and impress upon every
individual a sense of responsibility
to his neighbor and himself, to the
end that the loss of life and property
by fire may be reduced to mini
mum.
Let us remember that our per
capita loss annually by fire i'll Yer
mont is 81 80, twenty-five per cent
higher than the average per capita
loss III the United States, nine
times as large as that of the average
per capita loss of the five leading
nations of Europe.
AS another has said, America
is a nation Of money makers
Europe a nation Of money savers.
America figures that the most i'm
portant thing is to make dollar
Europe, that it is equally impor-
tant to save one.
America regards a fire as a mis-
fortune and one sympathizes with
the man who has had one-Europe
regards fire as result of a
crime, and they investigate and if
possible punish the man who is
guilty.
We figure that the insurance
company restores the loss they,
that the insurance company indem
n1fes the owner for a loss, which
can never be restored. Our SUI
preme effort is to eXtinguish fires
theirs, to prevent them.
We are losing a fortune every
day-they are saving one"
Should we not, then, endeavor
to profit by their example. the re-
suit of two thousand years of ex-
perience.

seal of the State, this twenty-sev-

 iafana.-lt is the general ecng ment here that Cuba is appraachinc a crisis ia it's history as d republic Eve serious questions occupy the pub. lie mind:
 Can Cuba survive the present sta.c Of her finances?
 Can she hold and honest and orderly election for the presidency with a lov. al submission of the defeated party lo the will of the majority?
 That the treasury is empty. that the last dollar of the Sl6,5C000o of the Speyer loan has been spent, while the work Of sewering and paving Havana, the principal purpose for which the plan was authorized by tho United States. is not only not hal finished. but in danger of interruption | not oi abandonment, that the gov. ernment is at it's wits end to find money to meet it's vast expenditures. while receipts from customs and tho lottery have reached their loves; point-all this is asserted by the enc. mics of the government, and most ot II frankly admitted by all. Every where 1t is asked how long can this state of affairs continue.
 Last month the government defaul. ed for the first time on the account due to the se%erinR and paving con tractors fer work done in July amour. ing to about $42G,o00. The govern. meGt declared that t found itself un ale to meet the bill. simply because II had no more money. The con. tractors appealed 10 the American le. sation, aHd sufficient pressure was brought 10 bear to convince the gov. ernment that payment Was imperative. Then the money was forthcoming.

 ngton.-Secretary Fishers ac. ton last January in reyoking the or. der Of former Indian Commissioners Valentine barring religious garb OF insignia from government Indian schools was upheld by President Taft ia an order just made public.
 The decision of the president is that teachers now employed in in. dian schools may continue to wear the sarb Of their religious orders. but the privilege is denied to any persons hereafter entering the service.
