work from the moisture of the silage,
so that the timbers are not subject to
the swelling and contraction common
to the stave silo.
Cost of Gurier Silo.
The Gurler silo is especially adapt
ed to those parts of Missouri where
there is still a local supply of native
lumber, which furnishes a cheap
building material. The cost ranges
from SITS to 81 per ton capacity. A
100-ton silo will cost in the neighbor-
hood of $500. The dimensions of a
100-ton silo are approximately "a feet
high by IA feet across.
Method Of Construction.
The foundation Of the silo is made
of concrete. In building this a pit is
dug two or three feet deep and a
concrete wall is made in this to ex-
tend a foot above the ground. Blocks
of two-by-fours are laid around on top
before the, concrete has set, with
large spikes running into the con-
crete. This forms a solid sill and
helps to anchor the silo.
The studdings are made of two
lengths of two-by-four lumber spiked
together at the middle, and are erect
ed two feet apart. If the diameter
and height of the silo are more than
about 16 feet by 80 feet, it is advisa-
BILE to either use t~wo-by-six lumber or
set the studding only IS inches apart,
Two pieces of two-by-four lumber
spiked together to make a f%our-by-four
is used as a center pole to tie the
studding to while they are being set
up. Each separate stud is t~oe-nailed
to the center of a section of the sill
in the concrete foundation. Only the
lower half of the studding is put up
first. The second piece is spiked on
after the lower half of the silo Is
nearly complete and needs no bracing.
The studding is plumbed with a car
penter's level and tied In position tern
porarily with small scraps of oil lum-
Der.
Putting on the %Sheetlng.
When the lower half of the stud
ding has been tied in position the
sheeting, which is, one-half inch lum-
Der, made by ripping one-by-four or
one-by-six lumber, is nailed horizon
tally on the inside Of the ~studding,
taking care to break Joints. The
sheeting should be nailed 0 from the
foundation to within about a yard of
the top of the studding and then the
lath put On.

Light Signal Drill
For Jackets To-day

That II to s game put UP by the
Yellow Jackets Saturday against the
Chattanooga team Is food for a lot
OF encouragement among the sup
porters of the Tech team of 1913.
The Chattanooga game was re-
garded as a hard test for the Heisuan
boys. Sewanee had met Chattanooga
the week before, and the score was
only % 10 D, so the expectation ap-
peared quite reasonable.
The conclusion seems IN he +uo\
fold. Either the Tigers are much
weaker than in former years or the
Jackets have a far stronger scoring
maChine-Or both.
Sentiment in Atlanta favors the
second conclusion. 1t seems fairly evi-
dent that Harris Cope has a not much
feebler team on the mountain. And
the only other interference is thaf
the Heisman wreCking crew is able to
run up lot of points.
