Hog Prices Go Skyward

The price of hogs took an up
ward jump the first of the week
and eight cents a pound was Of
fered here Monday for fat hogs,
but few were delivered even at
that price. Hogs are not as
plentiful in the country as they
have been in the past, owing to
the heavy sales last fall and win
ter when practically everything
that would be accepted was dump
ed onto the market in order to
save feeding them high priced
grain. AS a result hogs are
scarce and the farmers who did
not sell have not many hogs
ready for market. With these
conditions existing the price of
hogs can confidently be expected
to go considerably higher during
the next few months and it would
not be surprising if the ten cent
mark was reached again this
year.

SiIO InSureS
Bigger Profit

Indications are that many silos
will be built in this neighborhood
the coming year. The reason for
this is the painful fact that the
farmers are discovering that they
have been wasting their sub
stances in neglecting this most
essential adjunct to the farm.
The few who have tried silos have
found them increasing their pro-
fits, and the good news is spread
ing. Everybody is getting the
fever.
Mention has been made in pre-
vious issues relative to George
Cooks silo, constructed last fall,
and used for the first time this
winter. 1t is interesting from
the fact that Mr.. Cook was new
at the business, and therefore
his experience will show other
new silo converts how to proceed.
Having recently fed up the last
of his ensilage Mr.. Cook was
asked for statement for the
benefit of the many other inter-
ested farmers of Clearwater
county.
Here is a short statement COW
ering the case:
The Cook silo is of wood, cost
ing about $50. 1t is IA feet square
and 16 feet high, with 2-foot cor
ners, making it octagon. The
square corner will not do. Mr..
Cook graveled the bottom, put
ting in no floor, and put the en-
silage on a little hay to keep it
off the dirt. This bottom is air
tight. 1t will hold So tons. Mr..
Cook was working in Orofno and
hired all the work done when fill
ing the silo, and figures the cost
at 81 per ton. Last fall when he
opened the ensilage to begin feed
ing the loss on top was a layer
five inches deep. The ensilage
: was food all the way to the bot.
+ tom.
Il should have had "a head Of
/ cattle for silo this size in diam
eter, since one must feed off &
/. thin layer from the top every day,
D l fed a layer from one half one
r day and the rest of the layer the
! next day, but had some spoil as
went down. l didn't have enough
r stock for my silo.
Zone who has not had expert
ence has no idea of the value O.
ensilage. The results with my
mich cows were magical. Whel
| ran out recently my cows haC
to be starved before they would
E eat hay, and fell off alarmingl!
J. in cream production. l expert
O mented with one COW to see how
+ ensilage would fatten and the re
# suits were satisfactory. Thi!
e animal was finished up prime, a
a fat as one could hope to make al
r. animal, and the beef was prime
5. Il intend to build a new sill,
F. this year, using steel lath ant
p, pr plastering it, a method proven
good, and will sell the silo l nov
have. l want one a little smalle
in diameter, since l do not nee,
so much per day. The one thini
e | now know is that every farm
,s should have silo, and after tn
n farmer once tries ensilage he vii
wonder how he ever managed t.
to keep stock and run his farm with
Of Of out a silo. "--Orofno Republican

Wilcox Also Admits
Wilson Is the Winner
(Ry Associated Press


NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-William r.
Wilcox, chairman of the Republican ma
tional committee, issued the following
statement in reference to Mr.. Hughes
telegram to Mr.. Wilson:
Having conferred by telephone dur
ing the day with the Republican state
committee and the Republican national
committeeman in California, l am in
formed that the official canvass of the
vote has been so nearly completed that
no change will result from the few
precincts not counted in the returns
thus far complied.
This means that the majority for
the Wilson electors in California ranges
from about 1900 to $500 votes and
that this is the final result of the can
vass for which we have been waiting.
So far as any recount is concerned the
national committee is not advised that
there are sufficient grounds to call for
such an application"
Holders of some OF the largest
wagers made in Wall street on
the presidential election began pay
ing the bets off today on the
assumption that there now was TO
doubt President Wilson had been
elected.
Estimates Of the total sum wagered
in the financial district range from 3d.,
OOO. 900 to S5,000,006.

SANTA ROSA. Cal, Nov. 23.-Jack
London, the author. died at his Glen
Ellen, Cal, ranch near here. at 7:45
o'clock last night, a victim of uremic
poisoning. London was taken ill Tues
day night and was found unconscious
early Wednesday by a servant who went
TO his room to awaken him
His condition at first alarmed his
sister. Mrs. Eliza Shepard, who summon
ed physicians from this city,. II was at
first believed the author was a victim OF
ptomaine poisoning. DR.. J. Wilson
Shields, OF San Francisco a close friend
of the writer, was summoned during the

was serious.
From the time London was found
Wednesday morning he did not regain

GREECE TURNS DOWN DEMANDS OF ALLIES
COMPLICATIONS
ARE POSSIBLE ON
SUBMARINE ISSUE
Gemany'S Conduct of Under
sea Warfare Has Produced
Big Crop of Inquiries From
United States

BERLIN, Nov. 22.-CBy Wireless TO
the Associated Press via Sayville. Nov.
23.)-A period of complications may
again be impending in German-American
relations.
Germany's conduct Of submarine war
fare has brought forth an abundant
crop OF American inquiries, of which
Joseph c. Grew, the American charge,
recently has filed no less than ten-flve
OF them today.
Six remain to be answered, including
the cases Of the Marina, on which a
number OF Americans appeared to be
killed, and the liner Arabia, sinking of
which the American government de-
clanes to be inconsistent with the prom
ises Of the German government regard
ing the treatment Of passenger liners.
The United States bases it's attitude
in the case Of the Arabia on the as
sumption that IL was unarmed and tor
pedoed without warning and is unable
to see that there was justification for
forcing the passengers into the boats.
Washington believes the submarine
commander. on ascertaining that there
were women and children on the decks,
should have refrained from making an
attack
Germany in the four cases in regard
TO which replies already have been
made, was found to have fairly con-
vincing answers which II Is believed
may put quite a different aspect oil
affairs. II is pointed out here. for err
ample, that according to testimony Of
her own passengers the Arabia was
armed and used her cannon; that the
sea was smooth and that other vessels
were near. II is argued that the Ara
bia, having on board a large number
OF coolie war workers, should be re-
garded as a transport.

SEEK TYPICAL TEST CASE
FOR ADAMSON LAW
Railroad Lawyers and AttOr-
ney General Gregory Con-
tinue Conference
CRy Associated Press. }


WASHINGTON: Nov. 23.-Railroad
lawyers and Attorney General Gregory
continued today their conferences in an
attempt to agree on one suit involving
test of the Adamson act, to press for
early consideration by the supreme
court. The difficulty in reaching an
agreement arose mainly, IL is believed,
from the anxiety Of the railroad repre-
sentatives to pick from the many cases
pending in federal courts, one covering
typical conditions faced by all roads.
Railroad lawyers thought the Atchi-
son, Topeka and Santa F'e case, set for
hearing today at Kansas City, involved
all points at issue better than any 9TH
er, but department. of justice officials
were inclined to favor the Missouri,
Oklahoma and Gulf case, in which Fed
eral Judge Hook at Kansas City, yester-
day held the Adamson act unconstitu-
tional.
Selection Of q test case would re-
lieve the department from defending a
multitude Of suits already filed, as it
is understood all railroads would agree
not to press individual suits or insti-
tute new actions pending decision lin
the test case.

His Congratulations

E Hughes, acknowledging his message
Of congratulation, received last night.
The presidents telegram read:
Il am sincerely obliged to you for
your message Of congratulation. Allow
me to assure you Of my good wishes for
the years to come"
The White House made public several
thousand kilograms Of congratulations
from cabinet members, governors OF
states, Democratic leaders and from
presidents Of several Latin-American
republics. No messages were received
from any OF the belligerant nations.
Replying to the congratulations of
the cabinet, the president said:
zone OF the best things ABOUT the re-
suit is that It means four more years
of active association in public service,
and in that we are genuinely rejoiced."
This was taken by some to forecast
an invitation to the members of the
cabinet to remain in office.
Former Secretary Bryan telegraphed:
'I am proud Of the west, including
Nebraska. The states beyond the Mis-
souri, have rallied to your support and
saved the day, and in doing so, have
honored themselves no less than you.
They have been largely benefited by
the great reforms secured under your
leadershi and they stand with you for
peace, prosperity and progress"
