GOVERNMENT BUYS
MANY STATIONS
For the Purpose of Breeding Army
Horses-some Fine Ones Pur-
chased.

Under me provisions of the current
appropriation act for the Department
of Agriculture authorizing the inaug-
uration Of experiments in the breed
ing OF horses for military purposes
and providing $4,000 for that purpose,
the secretary of agriculture, with the
| concurrence Of the secretary of war,
has appointed the following gentle
men "a advisory agents in the selec-
ton of stations and to assist in the
operation of the governments plant:
Mr.. Henry Fairfax, of Virginia, for
thoroughbreds; Mr.. c. l.. Railey, of
Kentucky, for American saddle
horses; Mr.. Walter Palmer, of Illinois,
for standardbreds; Mr.. Maxwell Ev-
arts, of Vermont, for Morgans.
Each gentleman acts with the off
GERS of the government in the select
ion of stations of the breed he rep.
resents. The secretary of war has
designated Lieut.. Col. d. s, Stanley
of the quartermaster corps to repre-
sent the army. and the secretary of
agriculture has designated Mr.. Geo.
M. Rommel, chief of the animal hus-
bandry division of the bureau of ami
NAL industry, to represent the depart
ment Of agriculture.
Thirteen stations have been pur-
chased to date, as follows;
Thoroughbreds: Gold Heels, by
the Bard: dam, Heel and Toe. Char
cot. by Common; dam, Spanish
Match.
Saddle horses: Young Bill, by
Golden King; dam, by Bourbon Chief.
Fair Acre King, by Bourbon King;
dam. Aletha Chief. Richmond Choice,
by Rex P~eavine; dam, by King Rich
ard.
Standardbreds: McNunne, by Mac
Dougall; dam, by the Nunne, Sigler,
by Red Medium; dam, Maud Sigler
Begue, by Virgins; dam, Lady Ores
cent. Twilight NJ. by belmont, Jr,;
dam, May Fry. Lord Rion, by Arion;
dam, Madge Fullerton.
Morgans: Daniel Webster Lam
bert, by Joe Allen, Madison Lambert,
by Lambert b. Prince M, by Ethan
Allen Sd; dam Topsy M.
All of these horses are well bred
and registered, and some are we'll
known individuals. Gold Heels, for
example, had a conspicuous career on
I the turf; Common, the sire of Char
cot, was by Isonomy, winner Of the
Derby and other important stakes in
England. All the saddle hroses thus
far purchased have had winning rec
ords at the Kentucky fairs, OF the
standardbreds, MacNunne is notable
in that he, like Cannon at the Colo
RADIO stud of the department of agri-
culture, is a grandson of oRbert Nc
! Gregor. Sigler was first in two-year
old class for standardized trotters at
the national horse shoy in 1911; and
Lord Rion's sire, Arion, sold for $685.
600. The Morgans thus far purchased
are excellent representatives of the
breed and should prove useful as sires
of cavalry horses of good size and
conformation The sire of Prince M,
Ethan Allen Sd, has left a remarkable
impress on the character of the Nor
gans of the east side of Vermont.
The department of agriculture ex.
poets to make other purchases during
the winter.

South Dakota Banker Says
South Dakota Farmers Must
Raise More Stock and
Build Silos.
SALVATION OF STATE
Every Farmer Should Read
What This Man Had to
Say At the Bankers
Convention.

That the farmers Of South Da-
kota must devote more Of their
time to stock raising and less to
small grain if they are to realize
the full value of their land, and
that the silo is the key to the
situation in this state was the de-
claration Of J. w. Parmley of
Ipswich in very thoughtful and
interesting address before the
state bankers convention in
Watertown last week. The ad-
dress will be read with much in
terest over the state. Mr.. Parm-
ley said:
First Of all let us consider
where We are at and whether We
are going. The last federal GEN.
sus showed that we had practi-
cally 92,OOO,OOO people in the
continental United States-an in

preceding decade. Computing

figures announce the magnitude

mists. 1t is not a problem Of TO-
morrow but Of today. Some in

prime when we number 2OO, 900.

Present conditions in the Unit

order for us to make short in

sources. The federal census Of
1900 showed that we had 69,-

1910 63,682, 900 or u decrease of

parative figures for the nine
months ending respectively Mar.
81, 1907, and March 81, 1913-re-
moved from each other only six
short years-and the figures are
still more startling. During the
first period we exported 200, ,OOO,- :
600 pounds of fresh beef. Dur

| do not know Of anything that
will pay better than to put up
about fifteen or twenty acres of
corn into silo and get $4,000
out of it.

OF my farms. They have two silos,

ter than they did on this ellsilage
The gain was very satisfactory
and the cattle fattened in q re-
markably short time and We
figured it the cheapest and best
feed we have ever used. OF
course this was fed together
with corn.
During the past winter We hav
had six silos feeding different
classes Of stock from them and
have had the same experience
with them that we had with the
first year.
At the present time we have
one hundred and thirty steers On
feed, feeding them ensilage and
corn and We are more than pleas.
ed with the results. The cattle
eat it, seem to enjoy it and it
does them more good than to feed
corn by itself or corn with the
hay We get.
We find to get the best re-
suits from ensilage during tx
treme cold weather it should be
fed inside a good shed or barn.
In mild weather We feed it out
doors and it is an ideal feed for
spring and summer; handled in
that way it is equally as good
fed in b,lilding during the cold
weather.
Clifford Bros, who rented our
farm and fed from two silOs have
moved on to their own place
during the past winter. They
were SO well pleased with their
experience with silos that they
have put up on their own place
one of the largest. if not the
largest, silo in South Dakota.
They are practical feeders, at
tend to it themselves and they
tell me they will never feed cat
tie without ensilage.
"In the vicinity of Mitchell
there are number Of farmers
who have silos they are using to
feed dairy cattle. l have talked
with nearly every one Of them
and they are all well pleased
with it and a great many who
started in with one silO have
put up more, which is the
best evidence that they are pay.

Professor G. C. Humphrey of

from ysur extended expert OBJ
servxtioA of the silo please give
me your unbiased opinion in ~:
gard thereto.
A silo is most valuable when
used for the storage Of corn
that ia harvested when the ears
are nicely glazed or the crop -
ordinarily ready to be put into
the shock. Freshly cut clover
and alfalfa, and beet tops mixed
with corn fodder or clover may
also be stored in the silO to good
advantage.
The loss Of dry matter from
corn when shocked, hnsked aud
handled in the usual manner
ranges from 81 to IS per cent.
Properly put into the silo the
loss is only 5 to l6 per cent, and
.he crop is preserved ia tean-
n to yield uniform quality Of
fe' d as long az it lasts, and
comes the nearest to being a
substitute for good grass pasture
