MANY ADVANTAGES OF SILOS
Nearer Summer Conditions Are Main
taIned Throughout Year Greater
VIII Be MIlkman's Gain.

With the advance Of dairying natur-
ally comes the silo. Dairymen are
well agreed that the dairy COW and
the silo are inseparable. In summer
nature provides the proper feed for
our domestic animal, and the nearer
that summer conditions can be main
tanned throughout the year the great
er will be the milkman's success. For
this reason where cattle or sheep are
wintered silage Is almost indispensa-
BILE. 1t is green feed. preserved In
nearly its natural condition for its
winter feeding. In a way silage may
be called a canned feed. 1t is UNI
doubtedly as superior to dry feed for
cattle as canned fruit is TO dried fruit
as food for man.
While fairly old in many states, the
silo Is comparatively new In the cen.
trail states. Naturally a few may be
built that are not properly construct
ed; hence good results cannot be OBJ
tanned. OF all farm buildings the silo
is the one that needs the most careful
construction, as the green corn will
not keep in a poorly constructed silo
Before building the silo it is well to
consider the different forms and
styles of each, as we'll as the cost.
Whatever type of silo the farmer
chooses to build, six things must
strictly be observed:
The silo must be air tight, fol
where the air has access the silage
will mold or decay, being in this re-
spect like canned fruit.
The inside Of the silo should be
smooth, SO that the silage will settle
evenly. Rough projection to the in.
ner wall will prevent this even set
Ting, thus causing dead air spaces
which will cause the surrounding 81
lage to spoil.
The walls Of the silo should be
strong, because the green feed is very
heavy and packs down solidly. This
creates a pressure that will burst the
walls of a poorly constructed silo.
The silo should rest upon q solid
foundation; otherwise the pressure
will cause the silo to settle out OF
shape.

Typical Dairy Cow.

Most good mixers conform more or
less to the idea of the typical dairy
COW having the great girth, big udders
and an enormous capacity for food
The COW with the small paunch, small
udder and heavy forequarters is ex-
tremely unlikely to add much to the
total milk production of anybody's
herd. The right kind of COW has
large nostrils and mouth, clean cut
muzzle, clear bright eyes and shows
every indication of good health. The
COW that is nervous and fidgety usu-
ally is a poor mixer.

Care of the Feet.

The more the feet are bathed and
rubbed the more comfort you will
have. Rubbing the soles Of the feet
with a raw lemon is very restful after
the bath. Keep the toe nails cut
straight across, never cut down on the
sides, and the cuticle around the nails
should be kept loose. A strong, hot
salt bath is very restful for the feet.

WHALE MEAT A GOOD Food
10 Being Used for Frankfurters In
Denmark, and is said to Be
Highly Nutritious.

Frankfurters made of whale meat
are getting to be quite the thing in
Denmark, according to Einar Tenrik-

berg. Norway.
Mr.. Henriksen came to America TO
study drop forging. He was graduated
from a school of mechanical engineer
ing in Christiania a year ago, and
planned TO go to Germany and then
TO come to the United States to study
this particular line Of engineering, but
the war kept him out OF Germany.
There has been developed In Nor
way in the last few years new field
OF industry in which mechanical engi-
ueers are much interested" said Mr..
Hendricksen. This Is the designing
and manufacture of machinery for
cutting up whales. 1t requires special
machinery. OF course, and the inyesti-
cation OF the whale in relation to the
Kind Of machinery required for dis
secting il developed the comparative
ly new industry OF using whale meat
for frankfurters. A big business has
grown out OF this. Most of the whale

things that were not good for him.
But since Crashaw had received six
months notice, according to contract.
Miss Thatcher had been worried about
her own future. At thirty a woman
OF Miss Thatcher's type finds It diff
ncult to start at the bottom again;
and she saw no prospect Of ever re-
csiving twenty-five dollars to start.
What would her ability count against
the magic OF personality?
That she lacked sorely. and she only
waited while the memorable months
hsv by She was too honest TO look
for another position until Bryant &
Co dispensed with her services. So
shs did nothing, and It was a week
before Crashaw was to leave that the
blow fell.
It came in the shape OF a curt official
istter. intimating that her services
would be no longer required one week
from date.
Little Miss Thatcher had not nerved
herself for the blow. though she had
expected IT so long. She cried all
night and went down TO the ONCE
the next morning with a red nose.
All that day Crashav kept her
buster than ever before in his private

that he leaned back in his chair and
watched Miss Thatcher attentively

and her nose decidedly pink. The

over having to go.
As a matter OF fact, Miss Thatcher
was almost equally worried over their
