The Concrete SilO

It has been made part of the duty
of the Dairy Department of the Mis-
souri, College of Agriculture to assist
the farmers of this state in construct
ing silos. The College has no inter-
est in any particular kind Of silo but
tries to give unprejudiced informa-
ton concerning all kinds that are
adapted to the state. The College is
interested only in having large
number Of good silos built regardless
of what kind they may be.
Since there are no dealers in con-
crete silos or agents distributing in
formation in regard to them the
farmers of the state have to rely
largely upon the College of Agricul-
ture for information about this type
of silo. The assistance offered by
the CoNee is in the nature of sup
plying plans for forms, giving esti-
mates for materials, and as far as
possible sending a man to assist in
starting the construction Of the silo.
The Department of Dairy Husbandry
has been led to give special attention
to supplying information concerning
the concrete silo on account of the
Misrepresentation this type of silo
has received at the hands of agents
for other kinds.
Every silo which has been built &C.
cording to the plans supplied by this
department has been successful Con-
trary to reports circulated by certain
silo agents not q single concrete silo
built under the College supervision
has cracked. Among dozens Of con-
crete silos that have been built in this
State only four have cracked and this
resulted from insufficient reinforce.
ment These silos were repaired
By putting hoops on the Outside and
filling the cracks with cement and
are used today with success II al

Guards Drop Name of T. r.

Milwaukee, Wis.,. Aug. 1.-THE
Milwaukee Roosevelt Guards have
changed their name.
No longer will this militia organiza-
ton, which has been a feature of the
military life of the city, wear the
name of the chief of the Bull Moos-
ers. The new name is the Milwau-
kee Hebrew Guards.
Roosevelt? Say! he's dead one
now," declared the anti-Roosevelt
members, and then they proceeded
to argue that after his retirement to
private life it was making a political
organization of the only Hebrew mill
tia company in the West to retain the
name.
The vote was about 2 to l to change
the name, but the minority made
gallant fight to save the name of their
hero before capitulatinp.

ing concrete silos in Missouri state
that their silage keeps perfectly. One
concrete silo on farm near Column
bia has been used five years and the
owner says that not a bushel of silage
has been spoiled in that length of
time. The College Of Agriculture
has been entirely unable to locate a
concrete silo where the silage has
not kept when it was put into it in
the proper condition.

A Scream from New England

Senator Lippitt of Rhode Island
complained bitterly yesterday because
the Underwood tariff discriminates
in favor of the South. It must be a
terrible shock, after all these preda-
tory years to find that the tariff is not

New England's exclusive benefit

ESCAPES FROM
MATTEAWAN ASYLUM
Hurls Guard Aside, Rushes to Waiting
Car and Disappears. VIII

Hurls Guard Aside, Rushes to Waiting
Car and Disappears. MI
Matteawan, N. Y, Aug. HARRY
Kendall Thaw escaped today from the
Matteawan State Asylum for the Grim
inal Insane in an automobile, which
carried him at speed of eighty miles
an hour to the Connecticut State line,
where he is immune from arrest.
Hurting Howard Barnum, an asy-
lum guard, aside when Barnum
opened a gate to admit milkman,
Thaw ran out to a waiting automobile,
leaped in apd was driven alongside a
six-cylinder Packard machine quar-
ter of mile down the road, where
he leaped into the speedier car and
got away.
Pressing into service the fastest
automobiles procurable in the town,
armed guards and attendants gave
chase, but the best speed they could
make was sixty miles anhour. They
followed, hoping that blowout or a
wreck might halt Thaw. The big
Packard was last seen at Stormville,
N. Y, fourteen miles from the asy-
lum, where Constable reported it
went through the village like pro-
jectile from a 16-inch gun.
Asserting that the escape was the
development of a well-laid plot, in
which relatives of Thaw were the
chief conspirators, and that several of
the guards and attendants of the in
were accessories, DR.. Ray
mond Francis C. Kieb, the new asy-
lum superintendent, ordered the ar
rest of Barnum and an investigation.
DR.. Kieb received the information
4 few hours after the escape which
induced him to believe, he said, that
he machine was carrying Thaw to a
seaport town in Connecticut and that
| yacht is waiting off shore there to
AXE him away.
Once over the State line and into
Connecticut, Thaw is immune from
lrrest, so far as the Stanford White
murder is concerned. Should the
authorities arrest him there on some
'retext he could not be extradited.
legal experts assert that there is no
lause in the extradition law which is
pplicable to the Thaw case.
Thaw, it is believed, thought the
ime opportune, owing to the Sulzer-
flynn controversy over the governor
hip, which would cause complica-
ions should extradition from another
State be asked.
Evidence that six men were in
solved in the plot to liberate Thaw
was made by the discovery that four

Miss Gee Talks on China

At the meeting of the Sue Tar
boux Missionary society of Central
Methodist church held yesterday af-
ternoon at the home of Mrs. Tenn
pie Ligon, Miss Minnie Gee, of Con-
verse college, made an excellent talk
on the Sioux Chow college, of China.
Miss Gees brother, Gist Gee, is pres
ident of the college, and her talk
was of a most intelligent nature. Mr.
Gee had collected large number of
interesting curios and pictures, par
ticually of the college, and these were
exhibited. Her talk dealt with the
customs of the Chinese, especially in
an educational way.
The society is interested in this
college in that it is supported by the
Methodist churches of the South, the
Sue Tarboux frequently making con-
tributions to aid in the work.
The program which had been pre-
