The Candidates

Two candidates are in the field
for the office OF Secretary of State.
G. P. Cary, who has been State
Superintendent for the past tel
years being candidate for re-elsc-
tion. He will be opposed by
William Kittle of Madison, who has
been secretary of the Board CT Re
gents of Normal schools.
Mr.. Cary is an anti-university
man and during the past two years
has carried on "a fight against the
University, charging extravaganza
to that institution and an attempt
to control the politics of the state.
Supporting Mr.. Kittle is an un-
usually large number of the best
known educators aud prominent
men and women of the state. Mr..
Kittle is neither pro-university or
anti-university. He is a scholarly
man with a broad experience and
is tied to no faction.
Mr.. Kittle is receiving endorse
ments from the Press and educators
from all parts of the state and will
make a good run for the office.
1t is our opinion that Mr.. Cary's
fight against the University will get
him nothing in the present cam
paign for the people throughout the
state have come to look upon the
university as an institution that
has done much to better conditions
throughout the state, and while it
may have been a trifie expensive,
the people generally .are not COM
planning of tie burden. Mr., Cary's
attack against that institution of
learning have seemed unwaranted
to many.

Agricultural Number

Northern Wisconsin, the
Poor Mans Paradise" is the
title CT a special edition to be
issued about May 1st by the
Superior Telegram company.
The edition will be a comprehen-
sive description of a number of
counties in the northern part of
the state in the way of agricul-
tural achievements and posi-
bilities.
The editorial work, as we'll as
the business end of this under
taking will be in the hands of
Henry P. Peterson of the Tele-
gram staff.
Mr.. Peterson is writer who
believes in giving facts regard
ing a region and is not inclined
to color his material i'm order to
make the reading better, believ-
ing that more good can be
accomplished by giving report
of the conditions as they are.
People have thus learned that
his reports can be relied upon
and this counts for mo1e in the
end.
It is the intention of the Tele-
gram company to give wide
circulation TO this agricultural
number and the good it will do
will be hard to be reckoned.
Besides containing much read
ing matter, the edition will also
contain many cuts of farm scenes
in this great region. There will
be advertising enough in the
edition to partly pay for the cost
of getting it out.
Mr.. Peterson expects to visit
this region in the near future to
begin his work of gathering
data. etc.

-HERE are more reasons than one
for making poultry a prominent

1t is necessary to keep a poultry
house and ward literally supplied with
road dust or some other light soil. The
floor under the roosts should have a
fresh supply of this earth twice a week
or oftener. 1t serves as an absorbent
for the droppings. produces rich com
post very fast and destroys lice.
AS dust heap Is one of the first es-
sentials around a poultry plant this
clean, fine earth comes into play there
also. Dust which chickens use for
their baths does not need to be chang
ed more frequently than two or three
times in a season. When it becomes
dirty il should become part of the
compost.
This fertilizer is valuable enough so
that it ought to receive some care, and

rual accumulation will fill good sized

ally every season. being of special val

months when it is accommodating it
needs to be tightly covered in shed

When the roosting platforms or the
floors of a poultry house are cleaned,

nure thrown into the compost heap
add ten pounds Of salts of potassium

MANURE FROM THE STREETS

Oil Must Be Extracted to Make 1t
Equal to Stable Product.
The department of agriculture re-
ceives from truckers and gardeners
many requests in regard to the value
of street sweepings as fertilizer.
The collections from sweepings con
sist chiefly of animal manures, trasl
and small particles of paving materi
ais, and at the present time. when the
use Of power vehicles is SO extensive
they also contain a percentage of oily
matter.
Experiments were made to test TIL,
effects of the sweepings on crops. G'GC
stable manure was also used in order
that a comparison might be made. H.
almost every case the sweepings prov
ed to be beneficial. The effect of the
stable manure. however. was much
greater
1t was thought that the oil contained
in the sweepings might affect their
fertilizing properties, In order to study
this point the oil was extracted and its
effect on plant growth was tested. In
every case it proved harmful. The
sweepings from which it had been eX-
tracted we're next tested. In this case
the growth was about equal to that
caused by the stable manure. In other
words. street sweepings from which
the oil has been extracted are prac-
tically equal to stable manure in fer
tilizing value: If some method could
be discovered whereby the oil could
be economically extracted street sweep
ings, on account of their comparatively
low cost. should constitute valuable
source Of fertilizer to the trucker and
farmer.-Country Gentleman.

ed $1,000 to Lands Value.
Four hundred and fifty bushels of
corn from eight acres that were almost
worthless two, years ago is the yield
Mort Van Buskirk of Kincaid. Kan,
received this year. Drainage did it.
Here is the story:
Mr.. Van Buskirk wrote two years ago
to FL. B. Walker, state drainage and ir-
rigation engineer at the Kansas Agri-
cultural college. asking what he should
do with an eight acre piece of swampy
land covered with willows. This land
never had produced anything.
Mr.. Walker advised him to drain the
land. and he did. The land was planted
to corn and yielded $50 bushels. Other
corn in that neighborhOod averaged
from ten to forty bushels to the acre.
The cost Of draining the land was 1925.
Mr.. Van Buskirk values his corn at
80 cents a bushel. or 1925. Besides the
increased crop. he considers his land
worth 81 600 more by the improvement.

Observe These Points and Get the Best

The basic point about a silo is that II
must be an air tight receptacle. A ce-
ment silo should always be pitched
with tar or painted on the inside with
some air tight material before filing.
The sole reason for building the silo
Is that it is the most economical way
of storing succulent feed. We can
store three times rs much dry matter
In Il siIo per square foot as we can in II

The theory of silage is that sugar

100 to TO degrees, which kiA off al

ly low. Cypress. redwood and cement
allow a little absorption, dry silage a
little on the outside and provide fer
mentation.
Forty pounds per cubic foot Is about
the right weight for silage. 1t is prac-
tically uniform all the way down.
The most expensive place to build a
silo is inside barn. 1t may be de-
sirable for convenience, however, but
it takes up valuable space that can be
used for storing grain or sheltering an
lmals.
Silage must be cut fine. The finer it
is cut the better it will pack and the
better it will be. A quarter of an inch
is about the right length, and half
inch is the limit at which silage ought
to be cut What you lose In cutting
you gain in labor in the pit.-Farm

TO PENSION DEPENDENT MOTHERS

The SUBJECT of mothers pensions
is one of the important pieces of legis-
lation to be taken up at this session
of the legislature. This was one of
the planks in the Republican platform
of 1919.
The plan for working cut the law
is simple, calling for the appointment
of state child projection agent.
He, in turn. has authority to select
twelve or fifteen assistants in the
more thickly populated counties and
these deputies shall be assisted, if
necessary by visitors" The duties
of the visitors shall be to keep a
check en- all charity dispensed and
secure data valuable to the state
agent.
The maximum amount allowed for
the maintenance of a child is $1,000
per month. 1t costs the state S21 go
per month to care for child in the
state home for dependent children at
Sparta, this fact showing that under
the proposed law saving OF $3.50
per month will be made for the state
on each child.
A desire to keep the child in the
home and out of the institutions is
the humanitarian motive behind the
measure, it having been proven. that
an institutional child" rarely develops
into the highest grade of citizen.
The plan does not entail addition
al expense" as it is simply taking
funds already used for charitable pur-
poses and applying them in a better
manner.
Opposition to the measure has
been registered by many associated
charities. In most instances the
opponents are representatives OF
charitable institutions which pay halt
their funds to officers to dispense the
remainder to the poor.

OF it. But when he looked over his
notes he found he had it down as being
in two different places, and as star
cannot move in forty eight. hours he
supposed he had made mistake in one
