Watch Your Sjjo,

The builders Of concrete silos should
take especial pains to %re-enforce them
stoutly with heavy wire placed not
less than Il foo apart while the con-
crete is being laid. We heard of sew
eral instances where the concrete has
cracked under the outward pressure of
the silage. One instance occurred neal
Waterford. Wis. recently, where Il
silo had beer filled TO its capacity of
o337 tons. When the enSilage began to
heat and ferment the silo burst open,
entailins Il loss, it is reported, of over
$1,000. Not only should ting concrete
he we'll re-cnforccd. but good cement
should be used and enough TO make Il
strong wall when mixed with the prop
er proportion of aggregate. -uoardS

There arc numerous instances all
through this territory where farmers
have o some extent specialized in the
growing Of horses and mules and made
good money in it.
Really good horses are bringing good
prices on the market. and the farmer
who will pay serious attention to the
producing of Il few good animals each
year will not only keep himself equip
ped with good horses. but will have
some money coming in from time to
time as a result of sales of surplus.
The great losses from the horse dis
east which prevailed through the state
so extensively two years ago has caus-
ed many to hold back from engaging
in the raising of horses for fear of an
other epidemic of this kind. 1t is true
there are risks involved. but these risks
are no greater than those Of many
other lines Of production. They are not
as great as the risks which the eXclu-
sive wheat grower must take.

PROLOGUE.

beginning on an ocean liner bound for
Europe and Just leaving New York.
1t has been boarded in haste on Il Win

them aboard. Brill was on his way
uptown with Aristidcs Stcbbins, his
valet. known as JAY. when he saw the
girl, just after purchasing Il valuable
bracelet as a gift for Il Miss Cnrstails.
The passenger list reveals the names
of the pursued RS Mr.. Andrew 1enni-
son and daughter. Brill finds himself
without money and nc@otiatcs with Il
dark individual for the sale of the
bracelet.

Brill, with Strbbin>. went forthwith
to the purSer's office and explained his
neglect in the matter Of procuring pas
sage. He knew there was . enough

been rather late in deciding to come
at all. As he stood there regulating
the matter in his graceful and cas-
Way, .\ristidrs admired him. spite OF
that impulsivcncsS 20 foreign to the
nature of the country youth.
Stebbins saw Brill examine the plan

AMONG THE %"CRITTERs."

The duty of the hour for the individ-
ual farmer is to keep the closest watch
upon his home herd for any outbreak
OF foot and mouth disease. If any sus-
picious case develops it should be i'm
mediately reported to the local authori-
ties.
The dirty feed pail is the killer of
the calf. There is no reason to doubt
that the great majority of calves which
die before they are two months old
are killed because of poisoning or in
digestion, traceable to uncleun feed
pals. If it is worth attemptin. to
raise calves, surely it is worth while
to have the utensils thoroughly clean.
Cows giving milk consume about
twice as much water as those not Civ
ing milk. One of the experiment sta
tions found that the average amount
of water consumed for each pound of
milk produced was Il little over four
and onc-half pounds.
Dairy COWS do not need a great
amount of exercise. Their business is
producing milk. and their milk max
ing machinery will exercise itself if it
is given plenty of good material with
which to work.
When YOU think of buying another
cow or two consider whether or not
you could not make more by better care
Of the COWS You already possess.

For the Farmers Eve
ADVANTAGES OF SHEEP.

The sheep is Il dual purpose
animal, producing both wool and
mutton.
The initial expenditure is small.
Every farmer can we'll afford
the investment of the necessary
capital in a few sheep.
Rapid monetary returns r re-
ccived, the wool clip and the
lamb crop being saleablc an
nually,
Expensive buildings arc by no
means necessary. \ warm lamb
ing pen is required, but for the
aged sheep Il shelter shed to
protect them from the winter
winds is alone sufficient.
Weed destruction represents
another asset. Sheep will eat
and relish almost every class Of
weed.
Sheep admittedly improve soil
fertility. Their manure is rich
and uniformly distributed.
Except at certain seasons Of
the year less time and atten-
ton need be bestowed upon the
care of the sheep than in the
case of almost any other animal
without thereby endangering
successful results.
