WASHINGTON, June 27.-President
Wilson's patience in awaiting release
of American prisoners in Chihuahua
City is limited to hours, rot days.
1t may be stated that definite
reply from General Carranza relative
to his attitude is expected not later
than tomorrow night.
The state department has been in
formed the presidents demands were
delivered to Mexican Minister of
Foreign Affairs Aguilar yesterday. It
is understood Consul Rodgers in pre-
senting the note to Aguilar suggested
that immediate reply" was impera-
tive.
What lies beyond this. officials
will not discuss The program OF pos
sfble action was taken up by the cabi-
net today. 1t is understood that in
the event Of Carranza's refusal to re-
lease them, President Wilson will ask
congress to permit his use of the
armed forces of the United States to
get the prisoners.
After the cabinet session 1t was
said Carranza's reply to the United
States demands had not arrived and
that no outline OF it was before the
administration. Should the answer
prove unsatisfactory, it is believed
President Wilson will appear before
congress at once asking for use of
the armed forces as he sees neces-
sary and at the same time sending
Carranza an ultimatum demanding
the release OF American prisoners in
Chihuahua city.
Officials believed Carranza's an

It will pay in such cases to use plank.
In many instances the old fashioned
plank floor is fertile cause Of this all

It and comes up between the cracks.
Under such sleeping conditions hogs
make a.. tremendous effort to keep
warm, and this can be accomplished
only by piling up deeply and therefore
by. getting too hot. By all means board

the floor so that the wind cannot get

DR.. Lipp points out that one can go
too. far in making hog quarters warm.
twill never do to nail up all windows
and to close all openings, because good
air is an aabsolutes essential if hogs are
to remain thrifty Hhe. important thing
is to supply ventilation without allow
ing direct draft ION the pigs when
they are in their Sleeping quarters.
Openings on both sides of the pen

house it is generally entirely practica-
BILE where many hogs are penned up to
keep the windows on one side of the
building open. If there safes no open

no draft, and it is the draft, above all
things, that is dangerous to the hog.

Wavs TO Saal the SiIo.

In good silo the contents are pro-
tected from the air on llssides except
the top. The air always spoils some
of the silage on the top unless feeding
is begun as soon as the silO is filed.
, Various methods for preventing this
waste have been tried. Onei is to cover
the silage with straw and then soak
this protecting layer we'll with water.
This keeps out the air fairly well and
the waste is only slight. Another
method is to sow oats on top of the
silage. When they terminate the dense
mass excludes the air.
The simplest and probably the most
practical method is to remove the ears
from the last three or four loads of
tcornstalks brought to the ensilage cut.
ter and then run just the stalks
through. In that way the corn itself
is not wasted and the loss from the
stalks is but slight.
