In q Time Of Drought.

Perhaps the only cheering feature
about the unprecedented drought
that has afflicted the Mississippi val
ley and especially Kansas is the fact
that man has learned IN some meas
ure how to mitigate the damage that
these catastrophes can cause. The
lessons of previous years have not
gone UNDECIDED.
thousands of siios,r says DIS
patch from Topeka, "are scattered
over the state and these rob the
drought of some of Its terroTs.
Farmers have learned to dig ponds
deep and to protect them with viii
low trees. The first panic following
the doubtless sept thousands OF
heads of cattle to glut the market,
but warnings from a dozen reliable
sources seem to have checked these
disastrous shipments. The heat
and drought of 1901 was a lesson.
Most farmers have since prepared
for such a summer.
Thus the application of brain
power as well as horse power to the
necessities of agriculture is shown
again to be worth while. The silo
is particularly note worthy. 1t is
a specially constructed chamber IN
which green forageis packed and pre-
served under pressure and in which
the forage undergoes fermentation
Europe knew the silo as long ago al
1900, but 1t was not until about 1877 !
that the United States adopted it,
For the intelligent and widespread
use of The silo at the present time
the various agricultural colleges and
the United States department Of az
ricullure deserves much credit.

That the work of charting the

means completed is shown by the

foreign authorities, and SII were re-
ported by colonial and foreign gov
