Cement SilOS
Are Cheapest

Mr. d. NJ. Bowles was here from
the matter of silos a study. said:
Il think it due to the farmers TO
know that the best and cheapest silo
for this country can be constructed
by themselves. of concrete.
"1n the matter of such construction
the farmer can do his own work. OF
excavating. mixing and building. so
that the money outlay is little more
than the cost of cement and boxing
timber.
Farmers can often unite, help each
other with the work. use the same
tools and framing. II necessary. and
stin further lessen the cost.
IF man can. in this way. put up
a lo0-ton silo for an actual cash out
lay of $40 or $50. it is the best invest
ment he can make, for, with his work
added to that amount. he has perhaps
a better and more nearly air-tight silo
than he could buy for $500 or $500.
There is plenty OF gravel in gen
orally easy reach and II mixer can
not be borrowed. farmers can join in
and buy one at little expense.
Farmers Of the northern part OF the
state are going in strong for silos and
hog raising. and are rapidly increasing
their money profits. You can fill your
silo with anything from potatoes to
tumhle-weeds and not a pound of the
content will be wasted"

Row Over Delta's

There's quite a little war en- be

days since entrance of the new Fed

at this time just where the thing VIII
end. One of the very interesting fel-
lures of the fight is the settlement of
assignments of players end Tom Sea

was with the Philadelphia Nationals
last year. and went over to the FEEDER

able controversy. recent United

ence to the Delta twirler is as fol-

The task of settling the Seaton
case, first of the Federal league
player disputes was begun Saturday.
Both the Chicago club. from whom
Seaton was originally signed by Presi-
dent Weegman and the Brooklyn club.
represented here by George Ward.
are anxious to retain the former Phila-
delphia pitcher. President Gilmore
said that Seaton legally is the prop
erty of Brooklyn. having been award
ed that club when the Wards decided
to take the franchise.
"Weegman said he had promised r,
B. Ward, president of the Brooklyn
club, his cLoice of pitchers on the Chi
cago staff. and Ward picked out Seat
on who thereupon was turned over to
him. though Chicago got nothing in
return.
"Seaton himself is lost TO the Brook
lyn team. Hendrix may be awarded
to President Ward.
The Chicago Nationals will begin
the season with their present pitch ar
according to President Thomas. 1t
was reported that they would seek to
purchase or get in trade one or more
additional first class men"
Later reports say Seaton will stay
with Chicago.
