We got the start of them and took
up our station on the terrace along the
river. 1t was there that he witnessed
the scandalous scenes which took
place, and it would be difficult to de-
scribe the surprise and indignation
which they excited in him. When the
king showed himself at the windows
overlooking the garden with the red
cap which one of the mob had put on
his head he could no longer repress
his indignation. What Stupidity" he
loudly exclaimed. why have they
let in all that rabble? They should
knock off 400 or 500 of them with the
cannon; the rest would take them.

SPOILED SILAGE

Spoiled silage may not seem
to injure some farm animals,
but it is dangerous to others,
and has lost much Of it's food
value for all. The loss results
almost entirely from mold, ac-
cording to G. H. Eckles of the
Dairy Department of the Uni
versity of Missouri, and could
have been prevented, although
the only thing to do now is to
study what has happened in your
silo and learn how to do better
next year.
Unless the silo was sealed or
feeding was begun Immediately
after filling, from six inches to
a foot at the top is sure to be
spoiled. 1t should be put where
it cannot be reached by any
farm animals. Lower down the
presence of spoiled silage indl-
Gates the presence of air as the
molds which give it the appear
ance of rotten manure could not
work without air. The lack OF
sufficient water in filling is the
commonest cause of the pres
ence of air, but sufficient.
tramping in. on air-tight struc-
ture is also necessary. Red
mold which some times causes
alarm is no more dangerous than
the less conspicuous forms when
often pass unnoticed.
Among the various publica-
/, | tons on silage which may be Sc
cured by writing to the Agrl
Ecultural Experiment Station
Columbia, Mo-, are: Bulletin liz
! Corn Silage for Fattening Twf

Tax receipts for beer consum-

The game of football between
our Ozark boys and the Bonne

day resulted in wnctory of TO
in favor Of our college team. The
game was exciting, and in fact
a hard fought contest all the
way through. The same teams
play again at the Ozark AthIet-
ic Field, Saturday, November
goth, and one of tire best games
of the season is to be expected,
as Bonnie Terre is coming over
to WIN this one, while the Ozark
boys are just as determined to
add another victory to their list
at THAT time. The Ozark team
goes to DeSoto Saturday, the
18th, where it plays the strong
