SUPT. BOERGER PLEASED
He is Gratided With Results of School Ex-
hibits at the State Fair Held
Last Week

"This was the first time the Stearns
county schools we're represented at
the state fair with an exhibit, and we
are naturally very much elated over
winning second place." said County
Superintendent Boerger this morning
upon his return from the state fair,
says the St. Cloud Journal Press.
While at the fair Mr. Bosrger made
arrangements to fill an entire booth
next year with Stearns county school
work, for which preparations will be
made as soon as all the schools have
started. ~ r
The Stearns county exhibits were
praised by all who saw them, they be-
ing particularly attractive because of
their uniformity. A year ago Supt.
Boerger had special size of paper
printed both for drawing and writing,

be charged to the smaller silo. We
estimate that it would cost forty dol
lars per day to run this full crew in
Guiding the hire of an engine, if all
help were hired by the day at prevail
ing wages at that time of the year.
OF course the farmer can reduce that
expense quite materially, as he works
his own help, his own horses, and ex-
changes more or less with his neigh
bors. A silo 12x30 will hold 10 tons
of ensilage. If it cost forty dollars to
put the standing corn in the silo that
would be an expenditure of 60 cents
per ton. If we can have available
feed right in front of the cows for an
expense of 60 cents per ton of getting
it there we cannot afford to send a
man and team to the field every morn
lug to cut green corn for our cows.
The ordinary man is not usually re-
quired to milk more than six or eight
cows. For each man to feed as many
COWS as he milks would require so
little time that it is not worth men,
tioning, five to six months at the out
side. The work is practically all done
the day the silo is filed.
Assuming that we are to feed one
half of the usual winter ration, where
the cows have fairly good pasture, 20
pounds per day, at this rate one ton
would feed each cow 100 days. With
60 cents expense for putting in the
silo we have got the labor expense per
cow per day SO small that we cannot
compute it in cents, and further, if
the feed is right in front of them they
are pretty certain not to be neglected,
as the COWS will let their wants be
known. In this way herd of 80
COWS can be fed 2O-pound ration of
ensilage daily at an expense of Is to
80 cents per day in labor.
This may not entirely overcome:the
shrinkage that we are now suffering
but it will in part, and when we con-
slider that this expense is only the
price of one pound of butterfat per
day, it is we'll worth. consideration.
, ''If anything will solve the problem
of summer shrinkage ,cheaply it is the
summer silo. Some may. ask why not
buimone silo of sufficient capacity
for summer and winter both. Some
have triedStfiis to their sorrow, as the
silage of the larger silo was not fed
fast enough. to prevent spelling. 1t
is much better to have two smaller
silos than one large one. A certain
amount must be taken off every day
or it will mold and be of little value.
"The matter Of producing at the
least expense of labor is the subject
the former must study in the fut-
ure.'

dog for year, has his gun oiled, his

respond to the call of the wild, even
if the call came Sunday morning he
would be so righteous that like Elisha

be translated at once to the realms OF

LABOR VIOLATIONS CLAIMED
Charged That Government Winks at
Abuses of Eiaht-Hour Law.

Washington, Sept. 10.-Charges that
the government is winking at gross
violations of the eight-hour labor law
in the execution OF federal contracts
led to the institution of an investiga-
ton by the Central Labor union.
The American Federation of Labor
will lend it's powerful aid in pressing
the inquiry. The committee proposes
to look into the alleged practices Of
contractors and subcontractors said to
be working out their contracts with
the government at the expense<of their
employees
E. L. Tucker, delegate to the Cen
trail Labor union, was the authority
for the accusation that on much gov
eminent work nine and even ten-hour
schedules were not uncommon. He
also charged that the work was being
done at a cost greater than it could
be done by the government itself.
