The SiIo a National Factor

The leading agricultural subject Of
the day is the silo and its coming is
OF national Importance. No subject
is receiving SO much attention from
the Experimental Station Farm papers
and Farm Institutes. All the great
industries depending on live stock,
as the stock yards, creameries, pack
ing houses and transportation COM
panies are advocating it's use. 1t is .
conservation subject of great impor-
tance, for with it can be saved large
part of our principal crop. Nearly.
forty percent Of the food element of
the corn crop of this country is now
wasted. By the use of the silo this
could be saved and by so doing, hum
dreds of millions of dollars could be
added to our national wealth. The
corn forage which annually goes to
waste in this country is often referred
to as the "Billion Dollar Waste"
Is it any wonder we are complaining
Of the high cost of living?
In the past seven years the great
stock industry of the United States
in comparison with our population,
has been showing decline. This
condition has been largely brought
about by the rise in price of all kinds
of stock food, thereby making small
er profit to the producer. This in turn
has driven many men out Of the stock
business and discouraged others from
going in. With the silo the cost of
stock and stock products can be great
ly lowered. Experiments have shown
that by the use of the silo in place of
the old feeding methods, butter can be
produced from nine to ten cents per
pound cheaper and saving made on
the production of beef from 81. SO to 81
per hundred pounds. AS the largest
part of our food comes from live stock
it is plain to see the relation of the
silo to our national food supply.
Silage can be made from nearly all
kinds of farm forage and is a good
and cheap ration for horses, cattle,
sheep, swine and chickens. 1t re-
quires little storage space, is a labor
saving device, doubles the value Of
the corn crop, tripples the stock carry
ing capacity of the land, restores the
fertility to the soil, and returnes its
user annually one hundred percent on
the investment.

THEN He ABANDONED VISIT
Missionary Found Out Why He Was
Being Sent as Messenger to
CannbaI King.

Jack London, preparing to embark
on another cruise around the world,
told in Santa Barbara of the strange
experience of his last cruise.
But we had no such hairbreadth
escapes as that of a missionary we
met in Samoa" he said. This good
fellow was preaching in one of the
islands in which cannibalism is prac-
ticed. While trying vainly to make
converts he was captured by canni-
bal king. To his surprise, he was i'm
mediately released. His release, how
ever, was made on the condition that
he carry a small sealed packet to a
neighboring king.
1.-THE missionary was so grateful
that, meeting unexpectedly a de-
tachment of English sailors, he re-
fused to accompany them to safer ter
ritory. The sealed packet from his
benefactor would be delivered as he
had promised. But an officer in the
midst of the discussion opened the
packet

OF the $4,000 Wisconsin school
children who last planting time en-
rolled in a statewide corn-growing
contest, a very large number will COM
pete this fall at county and district
fairs for the much coveted scholar
ships and prizes offered by the respec-
tive county fair associations.
At each of these fairs exhibits will
be made of corn grown by these school
children under the immediate super
vision of their teachers and the gen.
eral direction of the superintendent
of the A counties in which the so
contests will be held this fall. The
dis plays will be passed upon by ex-
pert judges and the prizes awarded
to the contestants who enter the best
displays will be passed upon by ex-
corn most popular with Wisconsin
corn growers. The champion exhib-
itors in each county will be given
scholarships which include all of their
expenses while attending the one
weeks young peoples course in agri-
culture in Madison.
The whole plan originated with
r. A. Moore, professor OF agronomy
IN the College of Agriculture Of the
University of Wisconsin and secretary
of the Wisconsin Agricultural Expert
ment association. His purpose in or
ganizing these contests was two-fold.
In the first place he confidently be-
lieved that the boys of Wisconsin
could be induced to stay upon the
farm if they we're but given an oppor-
tunity to see that by raising better
grains and eventually better live
stock much more money could be
made and be convinced that farming
was just as honorable and dignifed a
business as any in which they might
engage. He was determined that at
least a large number of the farm boys
of this state should see the possibilf-

Old People Need

The Ideal Ons Is q Mild Laxative
Tonic That Wzu Keep the BOEceLs
Gently Active.
Gently Active.


Healthy old age is so absolutely de-
pendent upon the condition of the bow
els that great care should be taken to
see that they act regularly. The fact
is that as age advances the stomach
muscles become weak and inactive and
the liver does not store up the juices
that are necessary to prompt digestion.
Some help can be obtained by eating
easily digested foods and by plenty OF
exercise, but this latter is irksome TO
most elderly people. One thing is GER
tain. that a state of constipation should
always be avoided, as 1t is dangerous
to life and health. The best plan Is
to take mild laxative as often as is
deemed necessary. But with equal GER
tafnty 1t is suggested that cathartics,
purgatiyes, physics, salts and pills be
avoided, as they do but temporary good
and are so harsh az to be shock to O
delicate system.
A much better plan and one that
thousands Of elderly people are follow
ing, Is to take gentle laxatiVe-tonic
like DR.. CaldwelTs Syrup Pepsin, which
acts as nearly like nature as is possible.
In fact, the tendency of this remedy
is to strengthen the stomach and bowel
muscles and so train them to act natu-
rally again, when medicines Of all
kinds can usually be dispensed with.

different ages, among them Mrs. Mary
