LATTA ON SILOS

In the month of August l spent
two days in Torrance county with
County Agent Harwell, looking
over the condition of the crops
and stock with special reference
to the dairy industry. The abun
dance and excellence of the feed
crops is a matter of much satis-
faction. We are coming to see
the necessity and advantage of
growing crops which can be fed
on the farm, thus getting a bet
ter price for the crops and saving
the fertility of the soil OH the
farm. am especially gratified
by the action of Mr.. J. M. Mil
bourn and Mr.. C. L. Riley in
putting in pit silos. The pit silo
is the cheapest, and unquestion-
ably the best suited to this coun-
try. These men are taking a
positive step in the right direc-
ton. More of them should be
put in. The silo makes the fod-
der crop worth nearly twice as
much for feed as it would be
worth if given the usual care
and fed as cured fodder. If the
farmer has not the money for
the cement this year. he should
put in the pit anyway. Several
silos in this state have been used
very successfully without any
cement plastering on the walls
of the pit. If this suggestion is
followed it is advisable to con-
struct the cement collar at the
surface. before digging if possi-
Bile, so that the walls may be pro-
tected and kept in good shape
for the cement plaster next year.
Mr.. Harwell will be glad to give
advice and suggestions to anyone
interested, and can furnish them
with bulletins which will be of
practical help in the construction
of silos. Anyone thinking of
digging a pit this year should get
in touch with him at once.
With great hopes for the future
of dairying in the Estancia val
ley, l am
Very truly yours,
R. w. Latta,
Agent in Dairying, U. S. D. A.

A GET,TOGETHER
LUNCHEON

A meeting of the business mel
of the town was held Monda,
evening at County Agent Har
wells cffice to talk over the mat
ter of a getting together lunch.
con of business men and farm.
ers. The idea is Mr.. Harwell's
He thinks that if the business
men and farmers take their noon
meal together once month and
after dinner talk over matters of
mutual and individual interest,
it will result in a better under,
standing and make for team
work in the advancement of mu-
tual interests. 1t is true that it
would be possible for the farm
ers to get along without the
town people, but nevertheless
the town people are useful to the
farmers. There is in fact an in
ter-dependence and community of
interests that all thoughtful men
perceive clearly, and this being
true it necessarily follows that
better understanding and more
cordial feeling-a getting closer
together must result in good to
all. Those present at the meet
ing all expressed themselves
heartily in favor of the idea of
the get-together luncheon. All
of us persist in eating. anyhow,
and why not eat in company oc-
casionally-"b break bread" to-
gether? The thing will be tried
out a week from next Saturday
November 9th. There's to be
nothing formal about it. 1t will
not be banquet" Each per-
son will pay for his own grub,
and it will simply be the every
day task of filling our stomachs,
the only difference being that we
agree previously to go to the
same place, accomplish the task
in unison and then talk about
the things that interest US
in a material way. In order that
the people who furnish the eat
ables will be able to make their
preparations according to the
crowd to be fed, it is desirable
that the willing ones should be
enrolled. Mr.. Harwell was en-
powered to appoint a committee
to help him make arrangements,
and it would facilitate matters if
you would report to Mr.. Harwell
your intention to be on hand.
Everybody, men, women and
are invited. The same
kind of a movement will be in.
augurated in all the towns in the
county where a sufficient number
of people can be gotten together
for the purpose.

BLACK HAND LETTER
AT DEVILS LAKE

Is Devils Lake, N. D., Aug. ia
,black-hand letter, demanding $500
from G. M. Fisher, president Of the
Ramsey County National Bank and
one Sof the extensive farmers o1
this section Of the State, Failed to
worry the financier in the. least
The letter was received last even
ing and bears the signature OF
"Bad-Man," leaving further iden-
tification to the Imagination OF
the public.
The letter directs that the money
be left at the cornerstone Of the
Fisher farm near the city of Devils
Lake. Saturday, Aug. IA is the
particular date sefected FOR the
bundle of kale to be left to satisfy
the pressing demand for cash
which is being suffered by Mr.
Bad-Man.
The bank president was further
informed that failure to leave the
money at. the desired place would
result in the big barn on the
Fisher farm being destroyed by
fire. Giving the 1etter to the
public will result in more hard
luck overtaking him. Mr.. Fisher
looks upon the communication as
the product of an over-balanced
mind. So far as can be learned
he hasn't the least idea Of meeting
the request in any respect.
