How the average farmer using or
only $500 can construct a silo with
a capacity of So tons-enough silage
to feed 20 cows 40 pounds per, day for
four months-is told in a booklet just
gotten out by the Live Stock Depart
ment of the Southern Railway, a copy
of which will be mailed free to any
farmer addressing request for same
to Mr.. F. L. Word, Live Stock Agent,
southern Railway Building, Atlanta,
Ga.
Where there is Live Stock on the
Farm There Should be Silo'' is the
title of this booklet which tells Of the
advantage to the farmer Of having d
silo and the great saving which it
enables him to make in the cost OF
winter feeding for his live stock. The
figures given are taken from the prac'
teal experience of Tennessee farm
er who built silo on the lines indi
Gated twenty years ago, who finds II
as good as new today, and feels that
1t has paid for itself many times over
every year.
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson has
recently declared that the Southeast

of the United States for live stock
raising and must be looked to in fu
ture years for the nations food sup
ply. To stimulate interest in the live

Production of Copper in 1912.

Washington Statistics and esti-
mates received by the United States
geological survey from all plants
known to produce blister copper from
domestic ores and from all lake mines
indicate that the copper output of the
United States in 1912 exceeds that OF
any previous year in the history OF
the industry. Not only is the total
output the largest ever recorded, but
six of the large copper producing
state-Arizona, Michigan, Utah, Ne
yada, New Mexico, and Alaska-have
each exceeded all former records of
production, while, Montana and Ten
ncssee have nearly eQualed their pre-
vious record productions.
The figures showing smelter produc-
ton from domestic ores, which have
been collected by B. S. Butler, of the
geological survey, represent the ctual
production of most of the. companies
for eleven months and an estimate OF
the December output.
