Des Moines. July pending final
determination of the question Of the
validity Of the Iowa sterilization law,
or rather it's application to second Of
Tense or habitual, criminals, thru the
appellate federal courts, the state par
ole board will not issue 'any more
orders for the application of the law
at the state hospitals.
That the application of the law at
the hospitals has been beneficial will be
shown in reports to be made to the
legislature. Upon orders issued last
winter sterilization was performed in
very many cases at the state hospitals.
and 1t is the uniform testimony of the
heads of these institutions that the pa
tents have in many cases received
benefit therefrom and that such treat
ment is good not only for society in
general but for the individuals.
Decision Not Clear.
It does not seem to be quite clear
from the opinions filed in the case
WHICH Cd1ilc 1TOIil OIl >AAaSAASCAA
whether or not anything at all is left
of the law. The discussion was wholly
on the question of the application at
the penitentiary to ilahituai criminals,
and wholly on the theory that it was
punishment to the individual and not
a measure for the protection Of society
or for the benefit of the criminal. Moth
ing was said about the law as it applies
to the insane and other unfortunates
The state was pursuing the policy that
the law does not apply to the COM
victs but only to the others, yet upon
a discussion of its application to the
habitual criminals as a measure OF
protection to society the whole law
even as applied to insane as a thera-
peutic agent, was declared unconstitu-
tional. The fact of an appeal. virtually
holds up the decision.
The parole board has Just returned
from visit to the various insane hos
pitfalls where an investigation was made
Of the situation, as required by law
But it has been decided no orders will
be issued for the present. The appel
late court will have to say whether OF
not the entire act is null because it car
not be applied in certain cases.

silo, but after it is once built little at
tention is required to keep it in good
condition.
The stave or tub silo has become
very popular in late years because OF
the cheapness, ease and quickness
with which it can be built. Generally
speaking, the stave silo excels IN
these three particulars, although there
may be sections of the country where
sand and gravel can be obtained at
nominal cost and where the price OF
lumber is prohibitive. Under such
conditions the concrete silo may be
cheaper. Stave silos last for from five
to fifteen years, depending upon the
kind of material used and the care
given them. Unless well anchored or
guyed, they are apt to be blown down
when empty.
The average cost for concrete silo
of 100 tons capacity is $780, from one
to two hundred tons in capicity, S34S.
The average cost of the modified Wis
consin silo of about one hundred tons
capacity is s1S6, and that of the stave
type of 100 tons or less, Sis. The
cost, of course, varies with the local
cost of labor and material.
There are some features which are
essential to the construction of all
silos and without which silage cannot
be kept in perfect condition.
l. The walls should be air-tight,
since the successful keeping of silage
depends upon the exclusion of air.
Large knots in the lumber should be
avoided, and the lumber should be
we'll matched. In concrete silos a
wash on the inside with cement and
water or with raw coal tar thinned
with gasoline is effective in making
the walls impervious to air. The tar
treatment is also advisable for stave
silos. as it preserves the wood. Care
should be taken that the doors fit
closely into their frames.
2. The walls should be smooth and

When simple change of diet brings

Silo construction has undergone a
great change since the first ones we're
built, all the early ones being built in
the ground, while the modern silos
are constructed almost entirely above
ground. Besides, the first silos were
comparatively shallow structures,
which resulted in a large amount OF
spoiled silage on account of the lack
of sufficient pressure, says Farmers
Bulletin $50 of the United States de-
partment of agriculture.
Silos have increased rapidly in num-
Der, until now they are extensively
used, especially in those regions de-
voted to the dairy industry. So useful
have they become that many farmers
consider them indispensable. The silo
is adapted to all parts of the United
States where corn or the sorghums
can be successfully grown. Its use at
present is confined principally to
farms where cattle are kept, although
silage is good and cheap feed for
both sheep and horses. Some danger,
however, attends its use for horses, as
it is essential that silage fed to horses
be made from fairly mature corn,
properly stored in the silo and that it
be not moldy or frozen. Dairy farm
ers, especially, have appreciated the
value of silage as a milk producer. To
make the silo a profitable investment
however, the farmer should have at
least ten cows, or the equivalent In
other stock.
A well-constructed concrete silo will
last indefinitely, and there is no dan
ger of its blowing over or burning, rot
ting out, or being attacked by vermin
Its first cost is, as rule, greater thar
