SILO is NECESSITY ON FARM
SiIage Is Most Excellent for
Beef Cow and Steer.

The first 'ep In corn harvesting is
the filling of the silo. The siO Is now
generally acknowledged to be ne
cessity on the dairy farm or even on
a farm where beef and butter making
receive only the average amount Of
attention usually given to them by the
diversified farmer.
The experiment stations and practi-
cal experience have shown that silage
is just as good for the beef COW and the
beef steer as for the dairy COW. All
acr, of corn will yield more feed for
cattle when properly put into n sllO
than any amount of ground. All of
the corn crop is utilized when con-
verted into ensilage, hence the crop is
worth at least 80 per cent more to the
dairy COW for the production of milk
and butter than it is when fed as dry
fodder and grain.
SiIage is now used by thousands of
dairymen and stockmen for summer
feeding TO tide over the season Of
short pastures that come nearly every
year. The man with Il well-filled slO
for summer use need never have thin
cattle, and in this way silage cheap
ems production materially, for it Is
much cheaper to keep fresh than to
rebuild it after it has been lost.

MAKING CEMENT PIERS
CHEAP SUPPORTS FOR GRANA.
RlES AND OTHER BUILDINGS.
Galvanized Iron Cone Is Made Use of
to Mold Form-Excavation Is Same
as for Building Ordinary
Stone Foundation.

Cement piers for granaries and
other buildings that should set above
the ground can be cheaply and evenly
made.
A galvanized iron cone is made of
sheet iron, the size and length Of the
pier to be built, which is supported
by an iron band at either end (as
shown In the ilustratiOn).
Two handles are riveted to opposite
sides, and the mold is ready for busi-
ness. The cone should be at least two
inches larger at the lower end than it
is at the top. The excavation is made
for the piers the same as for building
stone piers. The iron form or mold is
placed in the excavation and filled
with the cement mixture.
The piers may be made ia two diff
ferent ways. First, the cement may
be rather thin and allowed to set in
the form until sufficiently hardened
to remove same. or the cement may be

mixed with as little water as possible,

REMOVE LITTLE PIGS TUSKS
Young Animals often Lacerate Each
Other in Fighting for Possession
of Mothers Teat.

When young pigs are nursing they
will often fight one another for the
possession of teat, and at that early
age will make use of their tusks The
results are many lacerated mouths.
The tcats Of the SOW sometimes be-
come sore from the same cause. The
removal Of the tusks is the best way
to prevent these troubles. This is done
by taking pig under the left arm, the
mouth is then opened and the tusks
are broken off near the gums on both
sides of the mouth.
Vaseline or some healing ointment
should be used on sore made before
the removal of the tuSkS.

The Board OF Pardons, after hear

ground that Bulger Is now suffering
from paranoia, decided that the gov

And the board further decided that,
pending this report. execution of the
sentence of death on Bulgar shall be
postponed and no further steps will
be taken by the board in the matter
and no additional arguments heard
until this report of the special alien
list is received by the governor and
communicated to the board.
Eleven other cases were heard by
the board. Communication of sentence
was denied in eight of them and
granted in one, while the hearing OF
the other two cases was continued
until the next meeting of the board,

Thomas Clark, who was sentenced
to serve from four to seven years for
cattle stealing, was given his free

serve.

CUT POOR cows FROM HERD
Farmer Should Not Waste Feed and

corn fed to balance with wheat and

STANLEY FIGHTS. LIQUOR LICENSE
 TRANSFER PLANS
Admits East End Isn't Prop erly Policed, to County
 Commissioners.

President John c. Stanley of the police board appeared before the county commissioners this morning to remonstrate against the transfer of a liquor license from Willard street to 179O Barnum avenue. He said he did not appear in is official capacity but merely as a representative of the Remington Arms-Union Metallic Cartridge Co.,, which is opposing the opening of new saloons in the neigh borhood.
 President Stanley took the stand after a number of witnesses had testi- fled in favor of the applicant, Jacob Hausman. The police official said the location is unsuitable. The section is not efficiently policed, the witness admitted. He said the U. M. c. Co. found that numerous saloons in the vicinity were too much of tempta- ton for employees,
 On cross-examination { by Judge Nicholson, / representing the .appli- cant, President Stanley denied the company sent him as representative because he is on the police board.
 J. A. Page appeared for the Arms Go. to oppose the transfer. He de- clared the company had to discharge numerous employees recently because of intoxication and he thought it would be harmful to have any more saloons. l
 Asst Supt. Hudson B. Britton of the Whiting Co. was another re- monstrant. He declared his conn pany had been opposing all new sa- looms in that vicinity because of the injurious effects upon employees.
 Edward Forbes of Bishop avenue caused laughter by admitting he had signed the applicants petition and had also signed the remonstrance. He said Ne didn't care what the result was. The commissioners reserved de- cision.

SIR ROGER DROPS FURTHER APPEALS IN LEGAL BATTLE.
Defense Abandons Contem- plated Action, High Court is Informed. JUSTICE DARLING
 UPHOLDS ATTORNEY Says Prisoners Counsel was
 Within Rights in Con-
 ducting Trial.

London, July 2S-When the court of criminal appeal met today to hear "a possible application" in behalf of Roger Easement, who was sentenced to death tor treason fin connection with recent Dublin uprising, it was found that the defense had abandon ed any contemplated action.
 It was disclosed, however, that somebody connected with the defense had informed the Kings coroner of a wish to reopen argument of a point abandoned by Alexander Sullivan, Easements counsel in the appeal court when questioning Lord Reade ing's Interpretation of the law in his summing up, on the ground that Mir. Sullivan had no authority to with draw the point mentioned.
 Justice Darling said it could hardly be alleged with anything approaching plausibility that MT. Sullivan had not authority to do what he did, and he added that despite MT. Sullivan's ac- tion@the court had considered the point, and if it had thought it neces- sary it would have called on the s.t- torney general to answer it, The court came to the same decision as did MT. >Su1hvan-that there was noth- ing in the point.
 ; Arthur Powell, who had been en- gagged to argue the appeal in the House of Lords of the attorney gen. erals fiat has been obtained. said the prisoners counsel never had intended to make the application and that the court had been so informed two days ago.
