DAIRY
RULES FOR FILLING A sILo
Iowa Agricultural Experiment Station
Offers Some Excellent susees-
tions on the Work.

To farmers who are filling sflos this
year for the first time, the Iowa agri-
cultural experiment station offers
these suggestions:
The corn should be cut when the
kernels are dented, or when about q
fourth Of the husks and lower leaves
are turning brown. It should be as
near maturity as possible and yet con-
tain enough moisture to insure fer.
mentation.
Either q halfinch Of three-quarter-
inch cut Is best because that length
insures less waste and a larger pack
Of corn in the silo.
Slow filling makes It possible to
pack the corn more thoroughly and
get in q larger tonnage. With rapid
filling the cost Is less, but to I'LL to
capacity the silage should be allowed
to settle and then refill.
Corn should be uniformly packed In
the silo and with good distribution of
stalks and ears. II the sides are kept
about two feet higher than the cen.
ter. the silage wedges against the
sides. keeps In the heat of fermenta-
ton and kills molds.
Water needs to be added when I'LL
ing II the corn in the silo is not moist.
Water must always be added when the
corn is very ripe. when the corn is
severely frozen before 1t il properly
matured, or when filling late In the
fall with shocked corn.
Keep the sides Of the silo alright
BY filling cracks with soft clay. II the
silo is wooden, or with cement II of

HORSE LABOR IS NECESSARY
Many Important Factors Can BE Con-
troiied BY Manager In Making Dairy
Farming Successful.

Horse labor IL q necessary item on
the dairy farm and should command
much attention from the manager. II
its efficiency drops the profits of the
farm are decreased, and the profits
from the cows must bear loss in the
horse-labor item. It Is seen then that
successful dairying is not making a
success with cows alone. but profitably
combining a number of factors. Man,
labor and crop yields per acre are
other important factors that can be
controlled to considerable extent by
the manager.

WOMEN CARRY DAY
FOR GOOD ROADS

The women taxpayers Of Alexan-
dria, La. went in a body to the polls
the other day and voted in favor of a
bond issue for good roads. The vic
tory is credited to them. Much Of the
taxable property in Alexandria is own
ed by women.
When the Louisiana Constitutional
Convention Of 1898 gave tax-paying
women the right to vote upon all
questions submitted to the taxpayers,
it was looked upon as mere scrap of
suffrage; but even this limited right
mas repeatedly proved itself of sub
stantial value to the community.
At that time New Orleans was al
most the only big city without under
ground sewers. All efforts to get the
taxpayers to vote special tax for the
purpose had failed. When the women
taxpayers were given the ballot, new
campaign was started, for sewerage,
drainage and a pure water supply. A
Women's Sewerage and Drainage
League was formed, headed by Miss
Kate N. Gordon, and after great deal
of hard work, the tax levy was voted.
All the New Orleans papers credited
the victory to the women, and the
Business Mems League gave Miss
Gordon a medal.
Soon after, the women Of Baton
Rouge put through similar reform
in that city, and now the women of
Alexandria have shown their public
spirit, and the increased efficiency for
good that has come to them with the
ballot.
