Well" he said. you see we have turn
ed over our school to the government.
that is they hold their civil service
examinations at the school and have
offered to furnish Uncle Sam with

so strong that we can hardly keep up

The steers on the farms in the valley

importance of this industry should not
be overlooked. It affords new and

the local farms. Such Industries are
a great aid to the transportation saci-

that can be very easily handled.

interest to those carrying on this prac-
tice. SiiIage should be fed combina
ton with other feeds such as alfalfa
hay. Trouble often results where sill
age is the exclusive ration.
Well matured corn is best. If the
corn is put up too green high acidity
will develop and then in that case it
is not wise to feed too heavily.
For ewes " to pounds per day is
the proper ration of silage.
Silage has the same effect in Undue
ing milk to flow with ewes as with
cows. In this way a better lamb is
produced.
Moldy silage should not be fed to
sheep.

contemplate the building of silo this

are quite popular. The WOODEN stave
