The federal food administration n

The federal food administration n
calling on the farmers of Minnesota
to build silos, and to build them now.
The food administration is making the
same appeal to the farmers of other
states. The reason for the call is that
the silo increases the prosperity of
the farm and thereby strengthens the
organization on which the nation and
its associate nations in the war depend
for the food that will win the war.
Here are some facts worth knowing
about the silo:
Why Have 4 Silo?
Every farmer who has silo be-
lieves In the silo.
The silo offers the only means Of
storing corn in such form that it can
all be made use Of.
Silage is both palatable and succu-
lent and increases the digestibility Of
the dry feeds consumed in winter.
All classes Of farm animals relish
silage, even hogs and poultry.
BY the use of the silo it is possible
to save corn that might otherwise be
lost through frosts.
It gives a sure food supply, because
there is no surer crop than corn il

Waterproof walls.
Strength to resist winds.
Durability.
Round walls, to facilitate filing and

Attractiveness.
Location Of the Silo.
Where it will be most convenient for
feeding.
Where it will be least exposed to
freezing (though freezing does not
spoil silage if it is fed soon after
thawing out).
Size OF the Siio.
Four tons OF silage will feed the
average cow or steer for 200 days.
A 100-ton silo, therefore, would take
care of Is cows or steers for 200 days:
A silo 80 feet tall and IA feet in d.

Subtle Youthful Reasoning.

Jimmy had been coaxing his mother

she had made, and in order to discour-
age him she tried to tell him that it did
not turn out well and that she would
have to give it to the little dog, Too

found him in corner in the pantry.

Worlds Debt to Arabians,

The world is indebted to the Ara
bans for a greater number of sciences
than today is generally admitted. The
Arabs were in some sort the discov-
erers of botany and chemistry. Agri-
culture was studied by them with
knowledge of climate, soil and the
growth of plants. From the eighth to
the eleventh century the Arabs estab-
lished medical schools in the principal
cities of their dominions and pub
lished valuable works on medical sub
jects.

How Floating Dust Causes Fire.

Spontaneous combustion is caused,
SO the chemists tell us, by floating
particles Of coal dust or other inflam-
mable material jostling and clashing
against one another until the friction
they set up raises their temperature
to the ignition point. If this explana-
ton is correct, it would appear as if
such fires could be prevented by per-
feet ventilation. Such, however, is
not the case, for ventilation may actu-
ally help to bring about fire by spon-
taneous combustion. Air facilitates
oxidation, really tanning the warm
dust into blaze. Keep air damp and
quiet to avoid fre.-Popular Science

Chjldren's Health Exercises,

Teach your child to sit, stand and
walk in an erect posture. Set good
example of this by your own conduct.
Here suggestion thus has powerful
influence. Spend three minutes per day
with the children in taking vigorous
breathing exercise-lifting the chest,
expanding the lungs to their greatest
capacity, holding the breath, exhaling
to the limit and the like, all together.
All will soon become fond Of this little
drill. as they almost feel the increase in
the glow Of good health.

When the crescent of the new moon

called "the old moon in the young

ance is that the "earthlight" upon that

Character Revealed by LAUGH.

The leopard cannot change his spots,
nor the Laughter his laugh. A laugh is
said to be as characteristic of per-
son as his nose or the color of his
eyes. No polish or educational veneer
can alter the laugh much in quality
and tone, although it may soften it.
Yet, even then, in an unguarded mo-
ment the old laugh rings or cackles,
or explodes, and the Laughter is given
away.

Now as to which offense is the
most unfair-the most unforgiving
in a question. as neither. while
being violations OF the law, are moth
ing serious. Public opinion and
public sentiment are against the man
who kills game or catches trout af-
ter the open season closes and he is
held in greater disrepute than Is the
automobile driver who violates the
law. Admitting that the man who
catches fish or kills game out of sea-
son is transgressor-a law-breaker
and should be dealt with accord
ingly, yet in so doing he takes no
chance of killing a person or inflict-
ing any great injury upon any one.
He is merely catching a fish or bag
ging a bird that some city chap"
might get later on. Nevertheless, he
does not by his act. show true sports
manship and should not object to
a nominal fine. But his misdemean-
or is much smaller than the person
who "cuts corners" with his automo-
bile, or speeds up while driving
through city or town. This per-
son always takes chances OF having
a collision with another car, or Of
running a pedestrian down and pos
sibly killing him-and his fine
should be in proportion to the
amount of damage he might possibly
do.
Public sentiment is generally right
but here is an instance where the
game violator gets the worst of the
deal-his crime is the lesser of the
two.
