CREAM AND BUTTER
MAKE ALVIN PROSPER

Never in the history of Brazoria
County has so much enthusiasm been
expressed and real action taken by
the dairymen and farmers this season
as regards the production of forage
crops for silos. Every dairyman or
farmer that has a silo, and produces
his feed, is perfectly satisfied with
the results. The following statement
is given out by the Business League
of Alvin, Brazoria County, showing
the benefits to be derived from the
dairying business, putting that local..
ty in the banner section for the great
est number of silos in the State:
"A few months ago Brazoria County
held the honor of having more silos
than any other county in the State,
and Alvin and the territory adjacent
to it had rs per cent of these; or, to
put it another way, there are 165
silos within a radius Of three miles,

and PIP within a radius of six miles.
Four years ago the first silo was built
in Alvin. As our dairymen saw the
advantages and saving made by the
use of them, the number grew, and
new ones are still being built.
"A silo twelve feet in diameter and
twenty-four feet in height will feed
sixteen mich cows $50 days, giving
each COW twenty pounds of silage
twice a day. 1t is necessary to bal
ance this ration, so something like
cottonseed meal or peanuts are used
for this purpose. It is the cheapest
and best feed to be found for dairy
cattle, for fattening beef cattle or for
hogs.
zone of the best products for silage
in the Alvin country is redtop
sorghum. 1t natures in about ninety
days and cuts from six to seven tons

and Sudan grass make excellent for.

cut and put into the silo at cost OF
$3.50 per ton, which makes silage one
OF the best and cheapest feeds that
can be produced. BY this method a
diaryman can have green food all
through the year.
THE dairy business has grown far
beyond the experimental stage in this
section. There is large creamery
here, the Alvin Creamery, that runs
full time the year round. and pays out
annually TO the dairy farmers more
than $4,000 for butter fat. Aside
from this, little more than $4,000
worth OF milk and cream are shipped
to Galveston and Houston each year
by our dairy farmers.
milk and cream are not all the
profits dalryman gets from his cows.

milk used TO fatten his hogs, and the
manure from his barn is put upon his
land and increases It's value, and 30.

Community interest is beyond Ques.

C. B Wood Cremated in Fire at Ranch Home, Resulting From Lamp Explosion.

PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. 1.-Over- whelmed by the fumes of an explod- ing lamp, C.. B. Wood, postmaster of Phoenix, died, and his body was partially consumed in the ruins of his country house on the Black can on road, near the grand canal last evening.
 Warned by Mr. Woods last words Look out," and by the sight of fire bursting out of the window of the trail wood structure, c. L.

before the voters at the next election. The condemned men have been re prieved many times and now that it is only year until the next election, pressure is being brought on the par don board that it should grant further reprieves or communication of sen tences at least until after the people again have chance to express them selves on the subject.
 Among those recently sent to the prison from Maricopa county who were seen Sunday were Tom Gib- bons, Harry Melosch and Harry Duty Melosch is chief tailor, while Duty is helping in the warden's office. Physi- clans have declared Gibbons is too ill to work, so he is confined in the tu- bercular ward. Prison officials say Gibbons has probably more visitors than any other man in the prison.
 There is an air of uncertainty about the prison in regard to whether any hangings will occur. No one knows definitely, but the graves are ready and the coffins are on hand, ready either to fulfil their mission or to be stored away.

placed him on cot, and rushed back into the house, screaming tc men on the other side of canal rearby As he opened the door smoke and flames billowed out, and he was driven from the place, blind ed, stunned, and compelled to stand aside and watch the fire rapidly spread throughout the building. At this time, he had no idea the unfort- unate man had not succeeded in escaping from the house. It was not until he had, with a half score of neighbors, attempted to form a the fire that MT. Wood was missed, and the horrible possibility occurred to the group.
 MT. Wood was in the habit of wis lspend considerable time in his study He had been in his room for some time yesterday afternoon. At about 5:15, he had called Madison, and had asked him for a lamp. Madison filled a lamp in the rear of the house and took it to Woods room, leaving there immediately thereafter to at tend to some chores outside. Five minutes after he left the room, Madison heard the soft explos- ion that indicated the bursting of 6 coal oil lamp.
 c. E Tannehill, who lives nearby, and others, commenced to search the ruins, which had cooled sufficiently by reason of the fact the light frame building had burned clear to the ground-to permit the men to ap proach quite closely. Buckets of water were thrown into the heaps of ashes, and soon the bones of a hu- man were identified. By this means then, it, became known beyond a doubt that frightful tragedy had taken place. Even until this fact was established, the frantic neigh, bors had continued to entertain the hope that MT. Wood had escaped.

 Leonard and Tomlin have strong hopes of their sentences being con- muted. Prominent people have taken ar interest in the cases of the two boys. Among this number is the edi- tor of the Boston Evening Transcript, who has promised to do all he can to save Leonard.
 A woman in far away Alaska has written Leonard advising that if a communication is refused to go to his death bravely. And there is not the least doubt among prison officials but what Atha Leonard will do so if he is compelled to ascend the stair way leading to the spot where the hangman's moose is applied.
 William Faltin, who is to die with Leonard and Tomlin, showed visitors a belt which he has just completed. It resembles those made by the h. dians. Faltin always haws smile for visitors and has became known as 'uhe cheerful Dutchman."
 W. W. Kermeen, too, is very so- -a;o T. ;1 ;1 doubtedly insane and that on this ac- count he will not hang. Faltin, too, is said to be in the same condition as Kermeen, so his chances are not alto gether gone.

 HOPE
Condemned Met at Florence Have Come to Believe in Reprieves.
(Arizona Gazette )


 All hope of escaping the hangman's moose has not been given up by the five men now in the death cell at the state prison at Florence,
 The five are w. K. Kermeen, who is sentenced to go to the gallows Nov. 19; Atha Leonard, John Tomlin and William Faltin, Nov. 26, and Ra- mon Villalobo, Dec. 10.
 As long as there is life the men have hope Time after time they have been face to face with deaths and timIa after time their hopes have been frightened by reprieves.
 The dates for their executions are again drawing near and if anything IS to be done to save them from be- ing sent into eternity it must be done very shortly.
 Only the condemned men them 3elves know of the many anxious days they spend. They themselves know now hard it is to have their death lays set, reprieves at the last minute, and then more death days approach ing.
 A Gazette reporter visited the men :n the death chambers Sunday after noon and had face to face talk with the unfortunate individuals.
 Despite the fact that the date oi the execution of Kermeen, Leonard Tomlin and Faltin is less than one month away and the further fact tha they don't know whether their sen tences will be commuted all four hat smiles on their faces when seen Sun day.
