II thought once of going home and
giving up-all this said the boy
vaguely, as they strolled homeward.
But now Pm going to stay
"And Pm going to stay, too" the
girl answered.
They reached the door and went up
the stairs together in silence. At her
door the girl turned.

said. 81 have spent such a happy
evening" She blushed at her own
audacity. at has meant such a lot

next minute they were in each others

kiss which everybody knows to be the
sweetest.

other by sight; sometimes they sat
near each other in the cheap little
restaurant where they got their meals
whenever they could afford the lux
ury.
They were both too shy to speak
to each other, and desperately alone;
but now, staring into each others
faces in the deserted hall on the top
story of the rooming house, they
drew toward each other like aban-
doned banks drawn by some current
into vortex.
Are you going to dinner?" asked
the boy timorously.
"Yes," she answered, looking at
him with shy approval.
Let's go together" he said, great
1y daring.
They descended the stairs together.
At the street door she took his arm,
and they proceeded toward the res
taurant, without a word spoken.
That was the most wonderful meal
either of them had ever had. Their
conversation was monosyllabic, but
there was little need of words in the
happiness of this strange sympathy.
And afterward they strolled together
up and down the Lit streets. They
paused at the theater door. Women
in costly furs, accompanied by men
in evening clothes, were going in.
"I'm glad I'm not among that
crowd" thought the girl, and won
dered how many young DarroWs
there were among them.
!, And the boy, utterly abashed at the
thought of the temptation that had
come to. him, and feeling himself
wholly unworthy of the giH whose
arm was still linked in his, was plan
ming to see Mr.. Vincent on the next
morning at and tell him of the con-
spiracy.

READY TO PROBE
 PHILANTHROPIES

New York, Jan. 5-The stage is be- ing set today for the official probe of the United Stats Commission on h. dustrial Relations of the big founda- tions and benevolences centering in this city. The commission has set this date for the opening of the inves- tigation of the Rockefeller Founda- tion, the largest of them all, and the one at which sharpest barbs of cri- tics have been aimed. It is probable that the formal investigation will be postponed few days, but it is expect ed to be in full swing by next week.
 The Rockefeller Foundation off cials, who have charge of the immense benefactions of the "Oil King" de- clare they are welcoming the probe, and are prepared sustain the efhcien- cy and benevolent character of their aid to institutions, and to disprove the allegations of ulterior motives.
 The attacks upon the Rockefeller fund are not confined to one source, but are principally voiced by the labor leaders of the country. President Samuel Gompers has maintained op- position to "any mans attempting to establish himself as sort of all-See- ing Providence to provide for future and present generations" When the Foundation was established, declares Gompers, "Organized labor protested against granting federal charter to increase and perpetuate MT. Rocke- feller's power over the educational forces and thought of the nation and the world. The insidious influences and corruption which organized labor feared developed. Last summer it was revealed that 600 nominally gov ernment employees were on the pay rolls of the Rockefellr Foundation" In his most recent attack, MT. Com DTS declared that the Foundation "has not escaped the fire of general condemnation in the Colorado strike situation.'
 The criticisms aimed at the Rocke- feller Foundation are summed up in Mr. Gompers' two questions: "Why should one of the most powerful re- search institutions in the world be fi nanced by private moneys and private boards and sit financial interests iden- tifed with those of ruthless, exploit ing corporations? Can the research es and spirit of an institution under the domination of the Standard Oil billions be that of search for truths regardless of all else-search for ab- solute truths ?"
 Among the witnesses to be heard are the members of the governing board of the Foundation. An indica tion of their attitude was given the public recently by President Emerl- tus Charles w. Eliot of Harvard, who vigorously defended the character and methods of Mr. Rockefeller, and pro- claimed him the country's greatest business man as we'll as its greatest benefactor. It is not known just who will lead the attack on the Foundation.

There are more than three million members of the farmers union in the United States. Looking over the minutes of the national meeting, held In Fort Worth Texas, last September one can readily tell what states the cooperating by the amount of dues paid. North Carolina pays S4,426.55 dues every year. Tennessee, Texas and Virginia all pay upwards of s1.- OO0.OO. Arkansas pays $32S.3S. Is It any wonder that Arkansas farmers are at the mercy of the speculator? of course paying dues is not cooperat ing but the amount of dues paid by any State is an index to the extent of cooperation.

Death Dealing Kisses.

The most famous example of kisses
that have caused death is furnished by
the story of the sprightly young Ouch
ess of Gordon, who raised so many re-
cruits for the famous Gordon highland
ers. In the early days of the regi
ment recruiting was very slow. but
the duchess attired herself in the reg
mental cOlors and made tour of the
various markets and fairs, offering to
each recruit Il guinea and a kiss.
Most of the recipients paid for the
kiss with their lives. No sooner was
the regiment raised than it was sent
to fight the French. and in the first
engagement in which the duchess re-
cruits participated there was loss of
300 killed and wounded. All the right
fanking company was hit save one,
and he, curiously enough, did not hap
pen to be recipient Of the young
duchess kiss. He was a canny Aber-
deenshire man, and for an extra gum
Ell he sold his right to another person
to a kiss from the duchess ruby lips.

sILos FOR THE DAIRYMAN.
Investigations Show an Increase In
Milk Production Due to 9ilaos.

Investigations Show an Increase In
Milk Production Due to siIaos.
Prepared by United States department of
agricultural -
Before the use Of silos became so
general as it Is today representatives of
the United States department of agri-
culture compared the records of seven
Mississippi dairy herds, which had only
dry feed, with that of one herd Of
twenty three cows, which was fed on
corn silage In addition. The investiga-
ton showed an increase Of 1851 per
cent In milk production, due to the use
Of .shage 5sz4 rrs&, : - >.
During the summer months, when
tho rations for both groups were prac-
tically the same the average produc-
ton per COW was also almost the same.
During the. winter months; however,
the average monthly production for the
247 dry fed cows dropped 1857 gallons
per COW, while the average monthly
production Of the twenty-three silage
fed cows decreased only 8.38 gallons
Thus the silos owner obtained 1929 gal
Ions more each month from each OF his
cows than he would have II he had not
been able to feed them silage.
A gain Of this kind In herd of, let
us say, twenty cows would at the end
Of the three winter months Of Novem-
Der, December and January amount to
"a total Of 617.4 gallons for the entire
herd. At 30 cents a gallon this means

Surprisingly good play by teams
that before the opening of the base
ball season were considered not to
have as much chance as an "open
town" politician in Los Angeles, has
served during the early days of
spring to draw big crowds to the va
rious yards of the Organized Base
ball domain. So the magnates are
smiling broadly but not so broadly as
to eclipse their arch enemies of the
Federal organization.
President Gilmore's insurrectos
failed to bow to the lofty disdain of
Ban Johnson. The predicted "cor-
poral's guard" that would attend the
Federal contests swelled on the open
ing days to anywhere from $1,000
persons to millionaire latter be-
ing the Federal figure, the former be-
ing only the truth. Newark respond
ed to it's new major team as Phila-
delphia responded to "Billy" Sunday
and Billy was not greatly disappoint-
ed there, either.
Now comes Patrick Powers, or Pat
if you don't like the disguise. Mr.,
that is Pat, Powers vociferates with
much positiveness that the Federals
will have a team in New York in
1916 That was said in 1915. But
Pat always has a convincing way.
Mr.. Powers divulges that the New
York club is already organized. All
it needs is park, some players and
a crowd. The mazuma, which is a
synonym for dough, glue or good
baseball teams, as you please, is sub
scribed, asseverates the Fed magnate.
Not only will New York have a
team, emphasizes Mr.. Powers, but
the Federal league does not want
peace-at least not worse than Mex
leo or Austria. He adds that the

GRATING Nut Trees.

One Of the most successful methods
yet devised for grating nut trees is
the ''bark graft method, says the Ma
tional Stockman. "
In this case the stock is not split, as
in cleft grating, and the scions are
tapered on one side only, as shown in
a in the accompanying illustration.
This is then pushed down between the
wood and bark, as shown at b, and

held in place by wrapping soft twine
about the end Of the stock or prefera-
bly, by wrapping with strips Of waxed
muslin cloth. The exposed surfaces
should then be thoroughly waxed to
prevent loss of moisture The tips Of
the scions should also be waxed if they
have been cut. 1t is usually better to
cut them than to use scions with ter
minal buds. -:

the three months when there was
material difference in the rations of
the two groups it was found that each
cow in the dry fed herds cost $40 to
maintain; inTthe silage fed herd, $3.50.
Fluctuations In prices from year to
year and varying local conditions nee
essarily affect estimates of this kind,
but there is no longer any doubt that
the proper feeding Of silage to dairy
cows actually reduces the cost Of feed
per cow, while it increases the flow Of
milk. In the case Of the Mississippi
herds mentioned it was found that dry
fed cows produced a gallon Of milk at
cost OF 14.68 cents and pound Of
butter fat for: 9:93 cents. The silage
fed herd produced milk at 1896 cents a
gallon and butter fat at. 20:98 cents
Thus the saving in the cost Of produc
ing milk by the use Of silage was near
~ 40 per centsand In the case Of butter
fat nearly 30 per cent.
The cost Of the silo, like the resultant
saving, depends largely upon local con-
ditions and upon the size Of the herd.
A ninety ton silo, II by 80, will feed
a. herd OF twenty-five cows for six
months, allowing forty pounds for each
COW. Exclusive of labor the cost Of
such silo built of concrete has been
estimated. at $16O. To this should be
added approximately 1925 for cutter
and blower elevator and the cost of an
engine to run the cutter and blower.
In some communities 1t is possible, of
course, to hire the engine, or two or
three farmers may unite in purchasing
one, thus very considerably reducing
the expense. q" ,: .~..
It is estimated that a concrete silO
costs on the average $3.50 for each ton
capacity, including material and labor,
and wooden silo $3.50, although local
conditions may affect these figures. The
concrete, however, has the great ad
vantage of being permanent and does
not require the attention that even the
best wooden silo will demand after a
few years. i =. =. -"
Although the chief value of silage to
the dairy. is as a winter feed, it fire.
Quently happens that in the late sum-
mer and early fall the pastures are SO
short or so dried up that the flow of
milk is seriously diminished through
lack of feed. X It is mistaken though
common practice among farmers to al
low: this to happen. The easiest way
OF meeting this condition in large
herd is to feed ssilage, the amount de-
pending uponsst the condition of the pas
lures, and varying all the way from ten
pounds to a full winter feed Of forty
pounds. -

The use of pure bred sires in
dairy herds has come to be such a
universal practice that large grade
herds of almost any of the dairy
breeds are to be found Such herds
quickly take on the characteristics
Of the breed of the sire. This is
especially true of Guernseys. the
prepotency of the blood showing .
very plainly in the characteristics
Of all the stock. so that even in
the first genera ton we have a herd
which very closely approaches in
characteristics the pure bred type
A very fortunate coincidence is that
the characteristics of the color and
quality Of the milk are found also
This is especially true where the :
Guernsey sire is used with native .
stock. The cow here shown is Tay-
lor's Cream Cup. a pure bred
