The Game Of Cricket.

Cricket dates from the reign Of
Queen Elizabeth and had it's origin In
FOUNDERS and stool ball. Lord Chester
field was the first man Of weight to
take 1t mp seriously and Elton the first
public school. In those days scores
were notched upon tally sticks. the
ball had heavy cross seams. the bats
we're curved, and the fielders stood al
most in Indian ile. The early laws OF
the game had their inception at the
Star and Garter inn. Pail Mall. and
one Of the few Of these original laws
which obtain today is that Of the toss
up. The wickets were twenty-five
inches high and the ball six inches In
diameter. The first county match was
when Kent played all England in I'LL.

THE BUzzAR0 A MENACE

The buzzard is protected sby law and for many years has en- joyed immunity from marksmen on the theory that 1t was a pro- moter and preserver of human health and animal longevity be- cause of it's propensity as a scav- enger. Recent investigations by scientists has established the fact that the turkey buzzard is most dangerous foe to brute creation. It will attack and devour young lambs and pigs; spread disease. plague and pestilence because of it's unclean habits. It is claimed that hog cholera, cattle fever and other fatal animal diseases have been spread by the buzzard. In the South a movement has been started for repeating the law which has protected the scaven. ger. The law which protects the buzzard in any state should be wiped from the statute books.

ton of frst-class alfalfa hay, and of greater value than Cotton Seed Hulls for feeding cattle, either for beef or Gairy purposes.
 Corn cut in the roastihg-ear stage seems to be the most prac- tical for filling the Silo. Sorghum or peavine hay also makes good silage and may be mixed with corn or other green feed. as pre- ferred.
 My experi nee bears out the statement that fully 40 per cent of the corn crop is wasted when the stalks are left in the fields and only the ears gathered
 My silage gave out the first of March, 1914. At that time was feeding little less than two tons of silage to 100 head of cat tie. and figuring the cost of sil- age at $l. 50 per ton my feed bill was less than $7.00 per ton the estimated cost of silage being from $1. 50 to $5. .00 ger ton, ac- cording to the economy used in growing silage. Since March 1st 1 have been buying Cotton Seed Meal and Hulls, and for the same 100 head of dairy cattle it costs me about $30. % per day to feed on Meal and Hulls or more than twice that much of silage.
 would not think of running a dairy or feeding cattle without Silos. as my experience has taught me that it reduces my feed bill fully 50 per cent.
 After seven years experience in using Silos. both the Wood Slave and the concrete, I regard the concrete by far the most ec- onomical and practical for the feeder. I have no interest in any firm making silos. nor have I any interest in the silos sold by any dealer. What I have said herein is based on my actual ex- perience of twenty years in the dairy business.
 You are at liberty to write any man or citizen in Texarkana as to my character or business re- putation. hope my experience may be of value to those contem- plating the building of a SILO. (Signed) Carmichael Creamery Go.

4 PRACTICAL DAIRY MAN
A Letter From A Practical Dairy Man And Cattle Feeder Who Has Used, For Many Years,
 Both Wood and Concrete Silos.
To whom it may concern:


 My name is John Carmichael. 1 have lived in Texarkana for more than twenty years. 1 own and op era t e the Carmichael el Creamery of this city, and a dairy herd of some two hundred cattle two miles south of Texarkana and milk more than one hundred head of cattle during the entire year.
 Seven years ago l built two Wood Slave SiIoS; one of them lasted four seasons. and the ot- her five seas ms. The many sud- den changes caused by frequent rains, the sunshine on the sur face and filling the Silos and re- moving the contents and leaving the Silo empty for months makes it difficult to ket D a Wood Silo in perfect order. Although sup port d by a concrete foundation and fastened with guy' rods, about four or five seasons is as long as they will stand, accord ing to my experience,
 Two years ago 1 built two con crete Silos with capacity of 25O tons each. My Silage kept sweet and sound, and l regard a Con crete best adapted to this coun- try as the weather changes do not effect the material. From observation and from what ex- perience concrete men tell me believe the Concrete Silos are good fer One Hundred Years. My concrete Silo is moisture proof will hold water, and isnot affect ed by weather conditions.
 There is not great deal of diff ference in the cost of building a Concrete Silo and a Wood Silo of equal capacity when you count the required expense to make a good foundation and build secure ly the Wood Silo.
