a larger demonstration plot


Now that the potatoes are all planted
in the demonstration plots, Mr.. Birch
has more time to devote to follow up
the campaign for silos. He reports q
great interest in silos In his county, by
cattlemen and sheepmen as well as
dairymen, and that several silos are 60
ing to be erected by both cattle and
sheep feeders. In this connections un-
usual success in feeding silage to both
ewes and lambs is rspurted by Mr.. j.
E. Clinton. of Boise, who has several
silos and feeds on large scale. He
feeds large number of lambs for the
early market and is satisfied that he
has solved the problem of profitable
production of early lambs by feeding
silage, with chopped alfalfa hay and
cottonseed meal. Mr.. Clinton plans to
erect 3OO-tOn solid concrete silo this
summer.

.LEON-KLEM BOUT
 INTERESTS FANS.
Russian Defeats Dane in Two Straight Falls-Big
 Attendance.

A larger crowd was present at the sec ond round of the wrestling tournament last night at Redwood Field than wit messed the initial bouts on Tuesday night and better match was offered. Jack Leon, the wild Russian Cossacl, met and defeated John Klem in two straight falls.
 The Leon-Klem match was full of thrills and appealed immensely to the spectators. Leon, with his great amount of brute strength, proved too much for KIem to handle, and the defeated grap- pier was on the defensive throughout the bout. Leon won the first fall in Al min utes with another body hold.
 There was no doubt in the minds of the spectators, but that Leon is the best wrestler with the exception of Ed ("Strangler') Lewis that has appeared in Birmingham during the recent wrestling craze. Although he is not so skillful, he is a hard worker and gives the fans their moneys worth. He keeps after his opponent throughout the bout Kfem gave the Russian a good fight, but he wasn't in his class.
 It is probable that Lewis and Leon will meet tonight. The bout will start at 8:30 o'clock. Only one bout was staged last night, owing to the fact that Isra, who was supposed to meet Lewis, failed to arrive until too late for the bout. Two matches will be staged tonight

That it was little short of a benefaction to bring "The Birth of Nation back to Birmingham for reunion week has been proven many times to the management and attaches of the Jefferson theatre To see the decrepit visitors of the gray live through Petersburg. Appomattox and other lights and shadows of the time that tried mems souls' has brought mist to the eyes of the thousands of the younger generation who have divided their atten- ton between the screen and their ven- erable neighbors.
 And, strangely enough, 'The Birth of a Nation condemns, rather than gloriefies, war. One of it's most beautiful scenes Is an allegorical representation of fu- ture brotherhood of love, contrasting sharply with similar scene depicting the misery of war. For the latter scene wan. skeleton-like figures were selected Their dress if of many lands and na- tions. but all suggestive of grine and sordidness Some of the lean ,emaciated figures are bare to the waist. Men and women are strewn about the stage like the piled-up victims of a battlefield Arms are raised in entreaty to heaven Bodies. legs and arms Gas 1t were) shreds of human beings, are inextricably mived.

 The Penrose element favored an unin- structed delegation while the Brumbaugh faction advocated the election of dele gates pledged to vote for the popular choice of the voters as the party's presi- dential candidate.
 On the republican presidential preferen- tial ballot only one name was printed that of Brumbaugh, and there was much interest in the extent to which voters would write names on the ballot In Philadelphia, in 8 total vote of IFS, 355 Brumbaugh got 6S,76 votes, Ford 3123 Roosevelt 2036 and Hughes 507. Some other counties report scattering votes for these candidates, but the only one outside of Philadelphia showing a vote for Ford ot any consequence was Lebanon, which gave him l02.
 Because of the great size of the ballots many counties did not tabulate the scat tering presidential ballots and the official count, which will be announced in about three weeks, will undoubtedly disclose many votes fer various favorite sons.

SPEED
 DEFEATS LOOKOUTS

New Orleans, May 17.-New Orleans won a see-saw contest from Chattanooga in the tenth inning today, to 5. Allison, Pelican outfielder, was given credit for winning the game through his speed on bases. With the score tied in the tenth Allison drew a pass, went to third on a bunt by Knaupp and reached home be- fore the ball could be handled by the Lookouts' first baseman, pitcher and catcher. Covington started on the mound for Chattanooga, but was retired in the sixth after the Pelicans had secured five runs. Martina replaced Covington for one inning and was succeeded by Mar shall who worked throughout the balance of the game. Weaver, New Orleans pitcher, was hit hard by the visitors and retired in favor of Smith in the seventh.
