Alma GoOding, q Tahitian prin-
cess.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 10.-A
romance that began in a world
cruise ended here recently when
Miss Alma Gooding, Tahitian
princess, married Lawford Ames,
wealthy English globe-trotter.
Miss Gooding is the owner of
two cocoanut plantations in Ia
hiti. Ames met her on this little
foam-girt South Sea island, and
was so fascinated that he gave up
his world cruise to WOO this
Queen of the Cocoanut Isle." He
was, not successful at first, and
finally moved reluctantly on to
Australia and later shifted rest
lively from one portion of the An
tipodes to another, only to answer
the lure of the little Cocoanut
Isle in the end. When Ames re-
turned to Tahiti he found that
the girl had gone.
Then began cumbersome
worldwide letter search with all
the attendant delays of the mails.
The marriage was not finally ar
ranged until Miss Gooding arrived
here,

the acids have made any permanent
injury to the wall. 1t is my opinion
that the,effect of the acids in silage on

Question No. 81 have heard 20
much said against the monolithic re,
infored concrete silos by the stave
and tile silo agents that want to ask
your opinion of concrete silo. Would
also like to have any publication you
have on silos and silage."
Answer.-For a permanent structure
the monolithic concrete silo cannot be
excelled. 1t costs little more than
other silos usually, but will last longer.
Probably 1t Is the cheaper in the end.
On the average it will keep the silage
as we'll as any kind of silo. l am a
firm believer in this kind Of a silo, and
II 1t Is properly put up it is superior
to all, possible exception being the
pit or semi-pit silo, where such is pos
sible.
There are times, of course, when a
cheaper and more quickly constructed
silo can be put up to an advantage, a
fact which any. farmer understands.
When there Is marked advantage in
construction cost, believe tile silo
should be preferred, or perhaps in a
more northern climate the hollow tile
will afford better protection from
frost, through / know no proof Of this

North Dakota Agricultural College.)
The North Dakota experiment sta
ton. has carried on experiments in
sugar beet growing since 1891. Three
hundred and eishty-five trials have
been made during that time. Practi-
cally all OF the state has been COW
cred. The average per cent. Of sugar
for all these experiments is 1916. The
highest sugar content, 1853 per cent.
was In 1910. and the lowest, 9.S1 per
cent, in 1900. !
Professor Ladd makes the following
summary Of the work: 4,
1T Is possible to grow sugar beets

SOME QUESTIONS ON sILos
Assistant In Agricultural Enslnssrin,
Solves Some PerpIexine Problems
for the FarmaSo.

The following questions on silot
have come to the North Dakota expert
ment station. The answers are by C
F.. Chase, assistant agricultural en-
cheering:
Question No. l. Il have been figuring
on silo for some time and have s
scheme in my head that has not beer
worked cut that know Of. would
like to have your advice on It.
The way have intended to put Il,
up is like this: Build foundation vi
to the top Of the ground, to be made
of concrete. Then set in studding on(
foot apart, block in between about
three feet apart and rut iron bands
around at the blocks, then cover In,
side and out with expanded metal (ol
metal lath) and plaster with cement
putting on heavy coat inside and
out"
Answer: A plan such as you suggest
would make an excellent silo There
are great number Of metal iath silos
in Kansas, built by first setting the
studing on the foundation and stapling
the lath horizontally to the inside Of
the studs, plastering two coats one
half to three-fourths-inch in thickness
each, to the lath, and as soon as the
plaster coats are we'll set the studs are
taken down and two or three coats
plastered on the outside of the lath. It
has been found that the one layer Of
metal lath in itself does not have SUN,
cient strength.
Your plan is better in that you have
greater protection from frost and that
your wall will have sufficient strength
In case you put the metal lath on hori.
zontally and tie the walls we'll ct the
doors, which would advise you to do
/ believe the wood studs will last and
give good service many years longer
than they would in an all wood silo.
It 10 even possible the metal lath
would be first to give way.
In case you build as you suggest, we
would be pleased to hear with what
success and the actual cost.
Question No. z.-"The question Of
whether concrete silos keep silage as
well as any other kind and whether
the acid in silage has any effect on
concrete, II the silo Is properly glazed
inside has been brought up
Answer.First, concrete silos on
the whole will keep silage as well as
any other silo. For any silo to keep
ensilage properly the wall should be
tight and the inside smooth and free
from corners or depressions. FL
Second: With concrete walls made
OF properly proportioned and we'll
mixed cement, sand and gravel and
the inside washed with grout. one need
not fear injury to the walls due To-
the acids In the silage. have exam
lined quite : number Of concrete siloa
and have not seen single one where
