BUILD A sILo OF SOME KIND

A great many farmers make reso.
lutlons during the winter time that
they will not go through another win
ter without silage to feed the stock.
When the corn stalks are in the fields
covered with snow, the feed for the
stock is gettin short, the cows are los
ing in milk, and the young stock in
flesh. such resolutions come easy; but
when spring and summer come on
cows and young stock are doing well
in the pasture. and when there are
good prospects for a big crop yield,
there is a tendency to forget about the
resolution made during the winter
the building Of a silo, says Prof.
Larsen Of the State College.
Do not let rosy prospects for a good
crop delay or prevent any one from
building a silo. Build a silo of some
kind. II we have a good crop the silo
will help to make more of 1t. II we
have a small crop it is still more i'm
portant that we preserve some good
winter feed for the stock.
1t is not a question of the kind of
silo. No n will be prepared to say
which is the best silo. There is no
one silo that has all Of the good points.
But any silo has enough good points
to make IL a paving Investment Re.
sides, 1t is so much more comfortable
to take care of cows and stock with
silos. The writer now has ITS tons
of silage left. This will be fed to the
cows during the summer time. There
will be- no pasture for the cows. That
will b. plowed up to be put into corr
to fill o s~ilos.-and more silage will
make DON for still more cows. Those
who build a silo and keep cows and
young stock will never regret 1t.

Not a few Of the exchanges which
We have picked up this week relate au-
tomobile accidents, children being run
over and killed and in other instances
older people injured or deprived of
merely a customary term. In many
instances it is an act of carelessness
and of course nc other plea than "ac-
cident" can be entered. We noticed
in one case that a fellow got eight
years for running over a child, which
died later. All persons operating au
tomobiles should bear in mind the
large number of these cases and ex-
erCise the utmost care.

NOT TO BE CAUGHT MAPPING
Uncle Tobe Lived Up to His Reputa- ton and the Doctor Lost
 His Bet.

There lives in a certain Vermont town quaint old character known as Uncle Tobe," who is so conserva- tive of action and speech that it is most difficult at times to get any thing definite from him. Uncle Tobe, like the Father of His Country, has the reputation of never having told lie, and in addition he is so cautious of statement that he has never been known to tell an innocent untruth
 On one occasion his doctor, in con- versation with friends touching Uncle Tobe's characteristics, ventured to lay bet of five dollars that he could cause Uncle Tobe to tell what wasn't so. A neighbor promptly took the bet
 The doctor walked into Uncle Tobes house next morning, and while he was talking with the old man, the neighbor who had taken the bet drove up to the gate. Uncle Tobe went to see what he wanted, and then the doctor, as he had agreed to do, went out the back door and hid in the barn.
 Good morning, Tobe," said the vis- itor, is the doctor in your house?"
 He was there when came out" said Uncle Tobe.

The horse had run away and was tangled up in the wire fence at the side of the muddy road. Its half-wit- ted owner had kicked and sworn and tried to lift the animal until he was out of sorts and covered with mud
 A well-groomed man came along, took in the situation, and suggested: Spring the fence back, then he can get his feet free.'
 ,tThe owner of the horse did as he was told. Now give him a cut with the whip and he'll get up himself"

 Busby-No-o-o! It's war. They're fighting. The report from Berlin says they've licked tn British army to a frazzle. It looks as if the canal would fall into tn Turks hands.
 Mrs. B. (calmly)-I can't see what good it would do them.
 Busby Heading up to his climax)- Why, they'd loot it.
 Mrs. B. dnnocently)-Of what?
 Busby (triumphantly)- the hard ware. They'd take the locks, of course. Ha, ha, hal"
 A brief silence ensues.
 Mrs. Busby (sweetly)-But there are no locks in the Suez canal.

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
 TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up Mixture of Sage Tea and SuI phur to Bring Back Color,
 Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray; also enqs dandrufr. itching scalp and stops failing hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy ard troublesome. Nowadays, by asking at any store for "Wyeth' s Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get a large bottle of the famous old recipe for about 50 cents.
 Don't stay gray Try it! No one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time, by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another ap- plication or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy Adv.
