BRYAN SAYS WILSON
is HELPED-N0T HURT

DALLAS, Tex, Jan. A.-'In the Har-
-Watterson matter, so far, Mr.. Wilson
has been helped rather than hurt by the
correspondence. Mr.. Wilson is right in
believing that a man is sometimes hurt
by the sort of men clamorous in his
support"
William j. Bryan made this comment
last night with regard to the contro-
versy between Gov Woodrow Wilson, of
New Jersey, and Col. Henry Watterson.
of Kentucky. Mr.. Bryan was in Dallas
for several hours between trains en- route
to his farm at Mission. Tex. and dis
cussed the political situation in general.
81 am under no bond to keep the
peace. declared Mr.. Bryan, in discuss
ing the political situation in general while
waiting for his train en- route to his farm
at Mission, Tex. Harmony Is not the
most desirable thing in public life. The
organization proceeding upon that princi-
pie can progress only as fast as the
slowest of it's elements
CONTEST UNFORTUNATE.
The contest in Missouri between Speak
er Champ Clark and former Gov. Joseph
w. Folk he described as distinctly I'M
fortunate"
Whatever the result of the primaries, -
Mr.. Bryan said, lit is to be feared that
either Of the contestants will have weak
ened his chance of carrying Missouri in
the general election.
"It was mistake that the Clark men
would not accept the Stephens sugges-
ton, a thing l heartily approved, that
the two Missouri men divide the vote
of the state on the first ballot in the
national convention and that the one of
them who shall have received the larger
support in the delegations from other
states take the full vote of the delega-
ton afterward.
About the letter Governor Wilson
wrote to A. II. Joline several years
ago?" Mr.. Bryan was asked.
"A shining illustration that Mr.. VIII
son is the best modern example Of Saul
of Tarsus," Mr.. Bryan exclaimed. He
has been soundly converted. Anyone who
talks with him or hears him will be con-
WINGED OF that Mr.. Wilson's sort of
progressiveness is best demonstrated In
the Smith incident in New Jersey"
WON'T NAME CHOICE.
At this time Mr.. Bryan will not make
any announcement as to his choice of
candidates for the Democratic presiden-
tial nomination.
There will be campaign in my state
in about two MONTHS" Mr.. Bryan con-
tinued 81 expect to be in that cam
paign and before that time to decide
between the Democratic presidential can
didates. We have asplendid opportunity
to win, and 1 hope for the selection of
that man who can unite the Democratic
elements"
Mr.. Bryan also expressed his approval
of presidential preference primaries.
while primaries are still in the ex-
perimental stage to large extent" he
said. 81 favor this method of selecting
candidates. ultimately / favor the max
Ing of majority vote the deciding meth
cd in primaries"

SPRING WORK DELAYED
IN THOMAS BY RAIN

THOMASVILLE, Ca, Jan. a.-The rain
of Monday has further delayed the farm
ers of this county in their work of prep
aration for the planting of their spring
crops, and they are beginning to grow
very tired of waiting to start blowing
and breaking up the ground Not in
years have they been so backward with
their work, caused by the heavy rains
some weeks ago which have rendered
the ground unfit for work.
/, In sections where the ground is roll
ing a few of the farmers did some plow-
ing last week, but as much of this Sec
ton is level there were comparatively
few who could make much Roadway.
All indications point to the fact of a
much greater diversity of crops for
Thomas county this year than ever be-
fore, caused, no doubt, by the fact Of
the low prices of cotton and the amount
of that staple which was lost in the
great crop made last year, owing to the
inability to secure SUFFICIENT labor to pick
1t before it was injured by the weather
Thomas county made unusually fine
crops of corn, potatoes, sugar cane, ETC.,
last year and all of those who tried 1t
will go into diversifcation of crops this
season on a larger scale than ever.
Many OF the farmers are going into the
raising of fine hogs also, and one man
near Boston has plowed under his cotton
which was not picked and will plant feed
for the larke stock of hogs which he in
tends to raise.

MARTIAL LAW DECLARED
AT NEW ENGLAND MILLS

LAWRENCE, Mass, Jan. 30.-No repe-
tition of yesterdays rioting occurred to-
day when the various textile mills open
ed their gates. The whole city was I'M
der control OF the militia and picketing
near the mill district was stopped by the
soldiers. There appeared to be a slight
increase in the number of mill employees
who went to work as compared with yes
terday.
No serious trouble had occurred up to
s a. m, although there were a few minor
disturbances.
In the plains district, when Syrians
attempted to form a parade at the time
the mills were opening, the militia
forced them to disperse. Several strikers
were hurt.
Near the Arlington mills a crowd of
strike symp athizers attempted to cripple
the electric car service by cutting troll
ley wires.
No cars were damaged this morning.
Troops guarded the thoroughfares.
Today the city was as near under mar
tial law as is possible under the Mas
sachusetts statutes. Colonel Sweetzer
had under his command nearly two full
regiments of soldiers, totaling about
II, 200 men.
Colonel Sweetzer said that the position
OF militia was no longer that of waiting
for trouble to develop, but that the SOL
diers were looking for trouble and such
as meant trouble. His orders to the
troops are that no persons shall be al
lowed to congregate in the streets and
today the military zone was extended to
include the entire city instead of the
mill district.
The number of people entering the mills
today appeared to be greater than yes
terday. There are still about $1,000 oper-
atives on strike or forced out by the
closing of mills. Today there were three
mills that were closed, the Everett Ar
lington and Pemberton.
Joseph J. Ettor leader of the strtk-
ers, said that his men would hold meet
ings during the day, although it had
been declared by Colonel Sweetzer that
no outdoor gatherings Of the strikers
would be permitted. The strikers COM
mittee will meet about IL a. m.
On assurance of the militia that or
der would be maintained. officials Of the
Arlington mills announced their plant
would resume operations this afternoon.
Strike Leader Ettor declared his side
was enforcing, more order than the 9TH
err He pointed out that 10 pickets
were on duty this morning. In reply
to a note from Colonel sweetzer, Ettor
declared the strikers did not intend 70
have parades or open air meetings.
John Breen, arrested last night accus-
ed of completely in alleged dynamite
planting, blended not guilty this morn
ing. His case was continued.

THE sILo CONTAINS THE
FEEDING VALUE

Those farmers who have never
studied the silo question naturally
do not know how much money
they are loosing every year in their
feeding operations. No. pap, who
buys steers to fatten can afford to
be without the silo.
It is a poor corn field that win
not yield an average OF from ten
to fifteen tons of green corn per
acre. If this is cut into silage it
will make a sure profit at present
prices of cattle at from $50 to $S4
per acre.
1t has been demonstrated con-
clusively that sllage fed steers
bring more money on the big mar
ket than those that are fattened on
whole corn. It is also a fact well
known to experienced feeders that
silage saves grain and hay.
It is true that corn fodder con-
tains under chemical tests more
protein. carbohydrates and fatten-
ing material than silage, but the
fact remains that steers do not get
all Of the benefit from corn fodder
while about everything that is val
liable as feed is consumed in the
silage.
Then. silage being quite bulky.
IT is an excellent feed given in con-
nection with ground grains and
heavy meals as it aids greatly in
their digestion.
Another thing: steers like silage.
1t tastes good to them and they
eat it with avidity.
a steer prefers silage to dry corn
fodder just as a boy prefers pie to
dry corn bread. but in the case OF
the steer the silage is better food
for him than the pie is for the
boy.
Place silage and dry corn fodder
sfore a bunch of steers and they
Will not touch the latter until they
have entirely disposed Of the first.
This is an important factor in
feeding, because palatability odds
to digestive qualities OF feed, and
the more a steer digests the more
tat he will put on.
