HOUSE To ACT ON
LABOR ISSUE TODAY
So-CaIIed Exemption Clause o,
Trust Bill Due to Be Voted
Upon Late.

The provisions of the antitrust bill
relating to labor will be reached by the
House late today, and a lively fight is
expected over the so-called exemption
Of the labor unions. Opinion Is still
divided regarding the meaning Of the
language of the bill affecting labor
unions, certain members contending
that it would place the unions above
the law, others insisting that It gives
labor no rights. except to organize and
exist. and that It does not sauction
breaking OF the Sherman law.
Comparatively slow progress was
made on the bill yesterday and SAM
uel Gompers and other representatives
of the American Federation Of Labor
who came to the galleries to watch the
fight over the labor sections went away
disappointed. They probably will be on
hand when the provisions are reached
later today.

Foreign Trade Convention.
One of the features of this cam

trade, as distinguished from domestic
commerce. Popular approval of such a
course is to be frankly sought.
This was the action taken at the
concluding session of the National For

yesterday in resolutions, other sections
of which pledged the conventions sup
port to measures necessary to increase
the efficiency of the consular and dip

to call another national foreign trade
convention to take further advance

Strong Pleas For Trade.
Aside from the resolutions, the ses-
sions were notable for the vigor of the
discussion of perils and opportunities
confronting American foreign trade.
Nearly every speaker laid stress on the
value of increased foreign trade to ma
tional prosperity. The papers and dis
the establishment of American banks
abroad, American investment in foreign
lands as a "puller" for American trade,
and the imperative needs of American
ships to carry American goods.
Appreciation of the tariff and cur

speakers discouraged the extension OF
the antitrust laws to foreign commerce
on the ground that II would hamper
American industry abroad.

pictures illustrating the modern
methods of sanitary dairying, were
shown, these pictures being fol-
lowed by local valley views taken
by Prof. Cooley, valley agricul-
turist.
Drainage Engineer Miller, who
has had supervision Of the work in
the Carmel district, spoke at some
length upon the progress of that
enterprise, illustrating sal e mt
points with lantern slides.
Chairman Shahan invited to the
speakers platform, the govern

Fred o. Roof of Pueblo, was
eloquent in praise of the united
spirit of helpfulness manifested by
the business men of his city when
anything of interest to the south
ern part of the state was before
them for action. He assured his
audience that they could rely up
on any aid that Pueblo could rem
der. After cautioning the body
that much depended upon individ-
ual effort of every citizen of the
Valley, he concluded his remarks
with the prediction that "machin-
cry will be on the ground and act

of another winter hy."
The Monte Vista journal., 1914-02-07

Mr.. Davis, who was the last
speaker of the evening, said, in
substance, that he had come as the
representative of the Secretary of
the Interior, but had no authority
to promise anything, and no au-
thority to do anything but learn
conditions and to report to the
head of his department. he said:
II can tell you what 1 know, and
that is that Secretary Lane has a
deep and abiding sympathy for
the pioneer and desire to extend
every help to aid them in making
homes upon the desert"
Mr.. Davis said that his first
visit to the Valley was made 10
years ago last fall; that his own
appointment was made from Kan
sas and that the men engaged in
the reclamation work were western
men and their activities lay wholly
in the west. Irrigation is as old
as history, and always has drainage
accompanied it. He said that
large areas in the Nile valley had
their alkali problem due to the
rise of ground water.

great known fertility" said he,
"well watered and well ventilated.
This problem appeals to me as one
eminently fitted for National at
tack, and should appeal to all
thinking men. A feature in its
favor is that you propose to do the
major portion Of the work your
selves" "
The speaker said that the prob
lem should be attacked under three
heads: First, whether physically
! feasible and worth its cost. Sec

Thos. Ormond, speaking of the
La Jara drainage district, said:
This vast audience didn't come
here out of curiosity, but like my
self who have farmed in the San
Luis valley for 25 years, have a
message. Land which formerly
produced all crops abundantly, has
now gone to 'seep.' During a
great part of the year water is
within a foot of the surface. In
our district $4,000 in bonds were
voted without dissenting voice,
but owing to financial conditions,
we are unable to place the bonds.

depends largely upon the manner in
which it is put into the silo. Most
crops should be run through a good
ensilage cutter. The material is
then more evenly distributed in the
silo, packs better and larger ton
mage can be put into the silo. AS
the ensilage is carried into the silo
it should be evenly distributed and
thoroughly tramped around the out
side wall. Keep the outside higher
and tramp thoroughly. The center
will take care of itself. Its own
weight settles it while the outside
silage is retarded by the friction of
the walls. Put the best man into
the silo while filling, for this part
of the job is most important.
In feeding use Judgment. Silage
has proven valuable for all classes of
stock. For cattle and sheep, calves
and lambs it is unsurpassed. Horses
usually relish good silase, but it is
considered dangerous by some horse
men. Use limited amounts of first
class silage only and feed regularly
until you have tried it thoroughly.
In feeding silage to milk COWS have
no silage in the stable at milking time
and do not permit silage odors there.
Feed it after milking and if any is
left clean it out of the manger. Never
have musty, moldy, or rotten silage
about the silo or barns. Put it with
the stable manure, where it should
be.
If planning to build silo one
should first decide what types of silos
are best adapted to his conditions
and requirements. Get prices on
complete bills of materials for each
type and determine labor cost for

above 45 tons, was 81. 60 per ton ca
pacity.
The average cost of II stave silos,
below 45 tons, was 1898 per ton ca
pacity.
In Eastern Washington
The average cost of II stave silos,
all sizes, was 225 per ton capacity.
The average cost of eight stave
silos, above 40 tons, was .O8 per
ton capacity.
The average cost of nine stave silos,
below 45 tons, was 50. Al per ton Ca
pacity.
They vary from 81 cents per ton
capacity to ST.. IA per ton.
The modified Wisconsin or hoop
silo is a cheap but servicable sllo.
On the foundation circular sill is
laid and upon it 2x4 studs are erected
at intervals of u or 16 inches. de-
pending upon diameter of the sllo.
These are lined with half-inch boards
placed horizontally and nailed secure
" to each stud. A lining of acid and
water proof building paper is laid on
and then another layer of half-inch
sheeting, breaking joints with the
first layer and also securely nailed.
The outside of the structure may be
sided up. This will add much to its
appearance but is not entirely nee
essary.
One method is to plaster the inside
of the silo, wood lath or expanded
metal being used to hold the cement
mortar. This is more expensive, but
makes a very satisfactory structure.
Properly finished on the outside and
with the plastered interior receiving
a cement wash at intervals OF two or
three years, such a silo should last
indefinitely.
The Wisconsin or the plastered silo
will doubtless be more satisfactory
than the stave silo where summers
are very hot and dry.
The crops used for silage are many.
Corn is easily most popular, being
used almost wholly in the eastern
counties and largely in the western.
In reports from silo owners in West
ern Washington as many are using
corn as are using clover. One man
claims alfalfa has made satisfactory
silage and another says he has sue
cessfully used kale as silage crop.
In order of their popularity silage
crops for Washington are as follows:
