Almost Every type of sl'o Can Be Seen at the Fair

Few, II any, discoveries in the world
Of agriculture and stock growing
have been as important and far
reaching in effect as the perfection
of the silo. Its influence has been lit
tie short of revolutionary in upsetting
and eliminating ancient methods In
farming and handling OF stock. The
silo idea is not so essentially new by
any means. It's advantageous fea-
lures were advocated a good many
yeaN ago, but the farming world,
apparently hailed from Missouri. and
a vast deal Of Showing" in the way
ct demonstration work was necessary
to establish its claims. Not much
real Roadway was made in exploiting
silo work in this part OF the country
until prosperity appeared on the
scene in the late nineties, following
a period of the most woeful business
depression. Land prices began to
soar to unbelievable heights. Land
owners sat up and began to use their
pencils. They were up against new
propositions. The man farming land
worth $50 or more an acre realized
that he would have to run things in
a different way to dig out even rea-
sonable percentage OF profit on hts
investment. 1t was altogether differ
ent from farming forty dollar land. 1t
was the golden opportunity for the
silo enthusiast, and you may believe

that gentleman was not slow in grasp
ing it.
The silo has come to stay. It is an
institution no man on high priced land
should think OF trying to get along
without. Probably you are even now
thinking and planning for one before
the time rolls round for taking care
OF another crop. There are so many
different kinds and makes that one
might we'll be puzzled to make =
choice. The logical thing to do, un-
der such circumstances, is to visit
the Iowa State Fair and Exposition,
August 25 to September 3. Attend
the fair and visit Silo Town. AS an
object lesson in silo construction and
methods there is nothing else to equal
1t, or even to be mentioned the same
day. for that matter. All the modern
makes; the various plans and prin-
cip.es exploited; all the modern ma
ch;nery in use, all will be displayed
and demonstrated for the benefit OF
all who may be interested. The man
of receptive mind can acquire more
practical knowledge and information
of silo work in one week at the fair
than it would be possible to take on
in an entire year of reading, visiting
factories and listening to the windy
spiels of agents. If you are interest
ed in silos attend the fair and get
it all in one big lesson.

a big gunboat, and at 6:25 a. IN. we

Hoisington, Kan.-There is a case In
the hospital in this city that is at
tracing the attention of physicians
throughout western Kansas. Clay
Brewster, fourteen years old, the son
of q McCracken man, was the victim
Of an accidental shot from gun three
weeks ago, a small bullet striking him
in the left eye and passing through
the cereblum of the brain, coming OUT
through the top of the brain.
In passing through the brain the bull
let did not actually destroy any of the
brain cells. but severed the nervous
fibers. The bullet was removed.
Young Brewster was unconscious for
several days and no hopes We're en-
tertained for his recovery.
He has regained consciousness and
recognizes friends and makes his
wants known by signs. He cannot
talk. and his right side is paralyzed.
The attending physicians say that he
will recover, and there will probably
be no bad effects from the injury

WHO'S Yer MALE QUARTET"

We understand that anyone who ap-
proaches member of the Chautauqua
Committee this year, trying to find out
what will be one of the most popular
and pleasing features of the program,
by asking, Who's yer quartet?" will
be satisfied by the answer, "Hoosier
Quartet"
From what we can learn, everyone
ought to be satisfied. Nothing gives
more real pleasure to crowd than
the singing of a good male quartet
and the committee is going to furnish
US with dandy this time. There is
nothing new in the fact that they are
Gll trained soloists. That is true Of

RATES ON GRAIN
ARE GOING DOWN
Railroads Cannot Make u
Profit Carrying the
Products.

CHICAGO, March 1O.-That freight
rates on grain have steadily been
going down in recent years so that the
railroads cannot make a profit on car
rying them, in spite of an upward
tendency in the market value of these
commodities, was the testimony given
by Frank p. Eyman, assistant freight
traffic manager Of the Chicago "
Northwestern railroad, at the inter-
state commerce commissions hearing
of the western freight case today.
Mr.. Eyman, who appeared on be-
half Of the Al western railroad sys-
TENS which are asking for Increases
in rates on certain commodities to In
crease their revenue, IL Is said, $1O,-
600, 900 yearly, asserted that in his
calculations he had not considered
higher prices paid for grain on ac-
count Of the European war. The roads
are asking that the rates on grain
from points between the Missouri and
Mississippi rivers and Chicago be in
creased one cent Il hundred pounds.
Clifford ThOrne, chairman OF the
Iowa state railroad commission and A.
y. Helm, representing Kansas ship
pers, asked the witness whether. If
the increase were granted, the FARMER
or the consumer would have TO pay
the difference. Mr.. Helm replied that
so far as he could learn the farmer did
not pay the freight but rather that the
Spectator and ultimately the con-
sumer paid It.
Mr.. lyman asserted that the down
ward tendency in rates had not been
reflected i'm the market values but on
the contrary the values 20 the con-
sumner had disrcgarded the freight
rate. He introduced figures TO show
that the loss and damage claims on
grain was much higher than those on
other classes Of carload freight.
