FILLING THE SHO.

Corn is ready to DC cut for silage
when the grain is in the dent and
glazed, but. can still be broken with
n thumb nail. At this stage under
normal conditions the two or three
bottom leaves will be turning brown
and the Shuck will be turning yellow
at the end. There is greater danger
of putting up silage too dry rather
than too moist. In a staye silo the
slaves should be frightened up to ex-
Jude the air and generally loosened
a little after h silage swells tn slaves.
The inside wall of a concrete silo
should be washed with a thin mixture
or cement and water every two or
three years This fills III pores and
keeps the air from the silage.
1t will take at least six teamS. to
keep the average silagc cutter busy.
Corn should not be cut down too far
ahead or it will dry out too much.
Two men Mould work in the silo dis
tributing the silage with forks. Where
a silage distributor is used one man
IS sufficient. They should keep the
Silage higher at the walls than in the
center and should continually tramp
the silage next to the walls. The
traInping Is especially to keep out the
air. When possible allow the machine
TO stand two or three days and refill
to make use Of all the capacity
Finish filling the silo by running in d
load OF grass or weeds. This will rot

DiP(H.

Altoona, Pa. Sept. 2S.-En route4o
NcAlveys Fort, Huntington county, to

brass band Of Mooresyille ran into the
best snake story of the season.
They travelled the nine miles in a

a game warden musician, sitting UP
with the driver. espied a three-foot
blacksHake ~snOozing along the road.
He slid quietly TO the ground, seized
the reptile by the tail and just for
thu fun OF the thing, gave it a toss
into the midst of the band men, who
were all logged out in new uniforms.
In their efforts to get away some of
the party fell off the sides Of the
wagon.
Before the band men recovered
from their fright the snake, seeing
the inviting hole in Huller ~Isenberg's
big brass horn. sought refuge in the
interior Of the instrument and quickly
disappeared. Huller nearly shook the
horn to pieces trying to get the rep
tile out. but it sat tight defying
all his efforts.
Finally a brother musician with q
streak Of originality in him, suggested
scalding 1t out. When the band arrived
at it's destination a kettle OF hot tea
vas secured and the snake came ou'

Italian While Excavatlng For a Wine
Cellar Makes Discovery OF Value.

Rome, Sept. 28.-An ancient Chris
tan cemetery has accidentally been
discovered In the neighborhood of the
remains Of the Church Of the Holy
Apostles at Spoleto, in the Province
Of Perugia. The church, one Of the
first Christian temples erected in that
part Of Italy contained the bones of
many who suffered martyrdom under
the Ilavian Emperors, but had not
been used as a place Of burial for
more than fifteen centuries.
Since modern times, having been
little more than a ruin, it passed as
private property into the family Of the
Sinibaldi, of whom the present head.
the Italian deputy Of that name, de-
cided to enlarge the extensive base
ment for use Rs a cellar for storing
wine, he being a wine grower on a
large scale. Excavations had hardly
begun, a few days ago, when one OF
the workmen struck a solid block OF
stone about three feet below the sur
face and this proved TO be the cover
Of An ancient sarcophagus Of unusual
size.
TW~enty-one sarcohagi with massive
covers in monolith were unearthed
all belonging to the third or fourth
century A. D.. They were opened in
the presence OF a group OF public Of
ftcials and archaeologists from differ
ent parts OF Italy and each was found
to contain a skeleton In a perfect
state OF preservation.

ARTESIAN WELL PIPE is
CL0GGED BY CATFISH
How They Got into Subterranean
Lake or Reservoir Is II Mystery to
Texans.

W~hitesboro. Texas, Sept. 2s.-An
unSolved fish mystery has attracted
much attention to a We'll on the farm
of p. S. Wilcoxson, who lives two
miles south of here. Wilcoxson bored
a 6-inch we'll 1873 feet deep recently
and installed a pump. 1t soon became
clogged, and a catfish 9 inches long
was found lodged in the suction joint.
The fish was removed and the pump
again put in service.
A second time it became clogged
and another large fish was removed.
Since then a large number OF fish have
been AIKEN out Of the pipes. Where
they come from Is a mystery.
1t is believed by many persons who
were witnesses to the capture OF the
fish that the we'll touches a Subter-
ranean lake or reservoir and that the
fish found their way into it from a
neighbOring stream.
