WAR coRREsPoNDENT HAS

Under date of Saturday Aug

special articles from the war

made frequent trips to Wilton
during thes.past two years in the
interests Of the mine, and is
well known in this vicinity.
"Stanley Washburn, of Mime
apohs, war correspondent, is on
his way to Europe to watch the
field operations Of the armies
involved in the European con-
flict. Mr.. Washbnrn sailed for
England on the Credic at mid
nj ght last night. He will repre-
sent Golfers Weekly and also
will write special articles from
the war zcme for the Minneapolis
journal. While Mr.. Washbhrn
will first join the English army
in Belgium, it is probable that
later he will go behind the lines
Of the German or Russian fore
es, as he is personally acquainted
with officers high in the war
councils Of these two nations.

3. It's durability.
4. Never blows down nor
burns up.
5. Never have to write insur-
ance on it.
6. Never need repairs.
Z. Less expense in filling.
8. Silo can be put up where
wanted whether inside or out
side the barn.
9. Silage never freezes.
10. Keeps silage better than
any silo above the ground.
There are few disadvantages
which should not be overlooked.
(1) When filling the silo and a
stop is made over night before
the silo is full, there is danger
Of the accumulation Of poisonous
gases just above the silage. This
can readily be determined before
entering by lowering a lighted
lantern which would be put out
if poisonous gasses were present.
Stirring of the air as might be
caused by throwing in a few
forksful Of hay should cause
gases to disappear. (2) It is
slightly more difficult to get
silage out Of an underground
than an above ground silo,
thouph proper equipment would
help overcome. this. (3) A silo
improves the appearance of
farm and the underground silo is
not SO visable as the other types
are. (4) Walls Of pit silos,
which for any reason may not be
filled one season, are likely to
be damaged by freezing.
Though it is not likely that
the underground silo will come
into extended use in Minnesota,
yet it is possible there are some
localities where its use might
prove advantageous. One condi-
tion is certain; if man could
not afford to put up an ordinary
type of silo it could not be said
that he could not afford to put
down pit silo if the location
was favorable.
Additional information relative
to- this type Of silo or any other
will be gladly sent to anyone
making inquiry.

turvey in the time of one month.
To a man from the woods it
would be a world gone mad.
What dragged high civilization
like Belgian into quarrel start
ed by Servian? How did it
spread from the Pit in South
eastern Europe to the industrial
cities of northwest Europe? What
inevitably dragged British,
French and Belgians into the
consequences of this conflict be-
tween Germanic. and Magyar
Austria-Hungary and the Slavs?
What's the price to be paid to
stop the ware Suppose Germany
won? Suppose it flattened out
France and Russia and held
Great Briton off? What then?
What s. in dispute? What's to be
done or not done or undone that
there may be peace again?
We know that Austria-Hungary
had to- put a stop to the Slavic
conspiracies against it's integ-
rity; that Russia could not see
its south Salvic kinsman crush
ed; that Germany could not
see the dual monarchy threatened
with dismemberment; that Franc
could not deny the important
obligations of its protecting
alliance with Russia; that Great
Bfiton could not see France
crushed and Belgium s neutra-
lity violated; and Belgium could
not permit the disregard Of its
national honor and the disregard
Of its territorial sanctity to go
unprotected-that one after
another the nations were drawn
in from the far away eastern
cause Of war.
But the man from the woods,
having the world gone mad
suddenly opened to his vision,
may ignore these convincing
reasons and persist in inquiring:
What are they fighting for?
LIZ he should, wei have an awk-
ward time getting around to an
explanation. What are they
fighting for?
Later, if it should be the fate
Of two or more of the nations to
be flattened out and defenseless,
we can easily imagine what
would be asked Of them as the
price of peace. There would be
indemnity and sacrifice Of terri
tory, restriction Of Influence,
and diminution of power. But
if the plenipotentiaries of the
powers at war were gathered
around table now, and the
question arose, while each ma
tion is still strong: What's the
price of peace?-if that question
arose, what would be the ans
wer?
What does France want of
Germany, or Germany Of Great
Briton, or Briton Of Austria, or
Germany of Russia, by yielding
Of which war could be stopped?
