Pleased With the Silo.
my silo is the best investment I
have made since have been interested
in dairying," declared Dr.. r. A. Brat
ton, proprietor Of the Guerensey Dairy
Farm yesterday. The declaration was
made in reply to q question Of the re-
porter who happened to be familiar
with some Of the doctors operations In
connection with the farm. How much
did the silo cost you?" the reporter
asked. Three or four hundred dol
lars-I do not know exactly" was the
reply; but 1t cost me a great deal
more than 1t should have cost. That
was because very foolishly used un-
skilled labor when / should have given
the contract to somebody who UNDER
stood the business. But the siio pays;
It gives me all the rough feed need
at the lowest possible cost, and en-
ables me to use lot Of stun that has
heretofore been wasted"
