SILo DAYS.
Large Number Of Exhibits IN
Mexico Last Friday and Sat
urday.

Silo and Dairy Days in Mexico
last Friday and Saturday attract
ed many visitors to the city, froG
out over the county and Other
counties.
The silo was discussed from
every standpoint. The dairy In
terests received no small attn
tion also. A dairy organizatior
was formed. which we mention
under another heading.
The silo exhibits were interest
ing indeed. b. A. Powell, thc
only silo manufactures in Mex
leo, did not put up a complete
structure, on account of hoops
needed failing to get here, but he
had a portion of a silo construct
ed, to show how it is put up. Mr.
Powell was kept quite busy tx
planning the merits of his manu-
facture. His make is the
Diamond Concrete Stave Si!o.
Chris Kentzel, local agent, was
on the grounds representing the
Indiana Silo Co. j. T. Johnson
is the local agent for the White
hall Vitrified Tile Co., and was
around talking business for his
firm. Reece Holmes with Ran
Kendall and w. +. Atkinson were
pushing the claims for the Una
dilla Silo. S. p. Emmons and
VIM. Tompson had a complete
structure on the grounds of the
silo made by the Faber Lumber
Co. of Keokuk, Iowa. A. n. Day
was pushing the claims for the 81
10 he represents also.
James Surber of Thoml SON
was representing the Colunbia
Steel Tank Silo Co. And there
were agents of other silo b'Gftf
erS present also.
We hope every farmer present
carried home some ideas worth
while as to the good use that can
be made of a silo.
