The weather has been pretty decent
lately and for a long time we have
had little rain but the crops are not
suffering in the least. The big rain
is due to arrive Saturday or Monday.
For the past year it has come when
eve T. A. Muirhead put on a big sale.
He has been receiving big boxes Of
new goods and has now decided to put
on the sale. This store always gives
its customers bargains and Mr.. Muir
head defes the mail order houses to
meet his prices. The rains have inter-
fered with the local store in his COM
petition with the mail order houses
by coming and remaining during the
big sale days. II will be interesting
to watch this sale and see whether
Mr.. Muirhead is gaining any sympathy
from the weather man. Look up the
big ad and notice the prices.

too big for one or two men to dictate
who we shall elect. The common men
should awake to their duty and see
that good men are reelected to the

now filled with poor excuses should
be supplied with good men. There
are as many in this state as any other

We understand there Is one mar
in the south part of town who can
put up n pretty fair fight when It is
necessary. A drunk man who has the
reputation Of being n bad man and
uses his knife with telling effect if
given u chance, was reported to have
stopped ut one of the houses in the
south part Of town and proceeded TO
bemean the lady of the house and
call her all kinds Of names. A neigh
bor heard the same and called upon
the sheriff to come out and get the
man, but before the sheriff got there
the husband reached home and the
tough proceeded to tell him a few Of
his vile thoughts. The husband was
in no mood to take the cursing and
landed a right uppercut to jaw and
the dirty mouth was closed. He was
knocked out for a time and let go.
The officers are expecting him to re-
turn and il he does Judge McElroy
will be given the opportunity to issue
the prescription which either kills or

ENSILING THE GREEN CROPS
Extensive Investigation Carried on by
Nebraska Experiment Station
Six Small Silos Used.

The department of agricultural
chemistry of the experiment station
and college of agriculture of Nebras-
ka has been carrying on an extensive
investigation during the last year on
the chemistry of the processes which
take place during the ensiling of vari-
GUS green crops. Special attention has
been given to silage made from mix
lures of alfalfa and sweet sorghum.
Six small silos holding about one
ton each were filled in September,
1914, with various mixtures. Two of
these silos were opened during the
second week of August, 1915, and the
silage in each was found to be in per-
feet condition. The first silo con-
tanned a mixture of one part sweet
sorghum and one part alfalfa, while
the second contained mixture of one
part sweet sorghum and two parts af-
falfa.
Alfalfa alone will not make sill
age, because the plant does not con-
tain enough sugar to insure the pro-
duction of sufficient acid to preserve
the silage. The acid produced from
the sugar IN the green plant by bac-
terial action preserves the silage. BY
mixing sweet sorghum with the alfalfa
the necessary sugar is supplied.

Has His Own Cage Now.

"Squabbling and fighting - there's
another very frequent cause of di-
vorce," said Prof. L. Watts Ingersoll
in an address before the Cleveland
Antidivorce league.
"A man had been hailed before a
Cleveland magistrate for nonsupport
or some such fault.
"'But let me see, the justice said,
aren't you the man who was married
in cage of wild, man-eating tigers
and leopards?
Yes, your honor, I'm the man,
was the reply.
Exciting, wasn't it?' said the JUS
tice.
well, your honor said the man,
it seemed so then. 1t wouldn't now!'

very desirable that the coarse aggre-
gate be we'll graded in size between

The proportion of cement to the

and the proportion of sand to coarse

Ordinarily from 1-3 to u of the
total cost of constructing concrete
pavement is for labor after the mate.
rails are delivered. This emphasizes
the Importance of efficient organiza-
ton and proper equipment. Failure
to take those factors into considera-
ton frequently results in adding from
10 to 20 per cent to the cost of a
concrete pavement
The most economical method is to
have the work of mixing and placing
the concrete as nearly continuous as
practicable. The work should be
planned with primary view of keep
ing the mixer going full time The
drainage structures, the grading, and
the subgrade should, therefore, be
completed well in advance of the mix
er and provision made for obtaining
all of the necessary materials without
delay. A common error is the failure
to make adequate provision for deliv-
ering water on the work, and the
amount which given stream is ca
pahle of supplying is frequently over
estimated.

SAFETY OF THE FOREIGNERS IN
NORTHERN MEXICO HAS BEEN
ENDANGERED, HE SAYS.
Declares That II United States Recoo-
+ nlxe the carranxa Faction He viii
Not be Responsible for Safety
q Of Lives and Property.

Ell Paso.-General Villas formal
declaration to George Carothers, spe-
cial agent OF the state department at
Washington, that because of the rec
ognition OF the Carranza government,
he would not hold himself responsible
for the safety OF the lives and prop
erty Of foreigners created little appre-
hension here Sunday OF immediate
danger TO foreigners,
American Consul Edwards OF Juar-
ez declared thGt there we're few for
eigners now in villa territory.
The only news received by the
Juarez authorities from Casas Grandes
was the announcement OF the safe ar
rival there of General villa with his
brigade OF 1000 men. The arms and
ammunition OF the troops sent to
Casas Grandes are locked in box cars.
Half a dozen foreigners arrived
from Chihuahua City Sunday. They
declared they came only on business
and expected TO return.
Fear Of an uprising at Juarez after
the departure OF General Villa for
Casas Grandes has subsidized.
From military source II was
learned that General villa had de-
clared TO Mr.. Carothers that the
United States and other foreign ma
lions could not now hold him respon-
sible for what happened to their ma
tionals In his" territory, and while he
and his bands would commit no depre-
dations, they would not attempt to
stay the operations of bandits that
might spring up.
"The United States and foreign ma
lions having recognized Carranzn.
must look TO him for protection" he
was quoted as saying.

carranxa Pleased With Recognition
Of His Government.


Vera Cruz.--General Carranza re-
ceived with great pleasure the news
that the pan-American conference at
Washington had decided to recon-
mend recognition to the party led by
him as the de facto government in
Mexico. although he pointed out that
he had received no official notice TO
this effect
He declared that the immediate ef-
feet OF this news will be "a great moral
strengthening OF the cause OF consti-
tutionalism. and a corresponding dis
heartendng OF opposing factions. There
will be no more formal battles. Fight
ing of that sort already has ended.
but naturally the struggle TO put down
minor outbreaks and lawlessness
must be continued for a greater or
less time in country such as this,
where there are extensive open
areas"
