FAMILIAR WITH GREATNESS.
Mere Generals Didn't Impress the
American Camera Man.

WSTe SSHSF6.S IHIHTSSS bho
American Camera Man.
A story told by Francis A. Collins in
the Camera Man shows that the direct
methods of the American news photOg-
rapher are not affected by surround
ings that might cause others to grow
self conscious.
A newspaper assigned an American
to make portrait of General Won
Kissing in the palace in Brussels. The
photographer applied for permission to
the authorities at Berlin, who received
him courteously and after consider
able formality, detailed an officer to
accompany him to Brussels. An APP
pointment was made, and the two were
admitted to the generals room. Pre-
viously, however, it had been explained
to the American that under no circum-
stances was he to address the general.
The officer began his explanation, but
became confused at finding himself
face to face with so distinguished a
parsonage.
Your excellency," he began, 1--WE
have come from Berlin-that is, if you
will be so kind In his confusion he
came to full stop.
General Won Kissing was seated at a
desk and seemed to be very busy. The
American photographer stepped for
ward.
General, am an American" he be-
gan without embarrassment.
u
smile.
81 have come to take your picture"
the photographer added without waste
Of time.
The situation was unprecedented.
The officer stood aghast.
"Very WELL" replied General Won
Kissing. GO ahead. What do you
want me to doY'
IF you will step to the window
the photographer explained. Now
step this way, little farther, please.
No; this way" And to the horror of
the attending officer the photographer
laid his hand on the generals arm and
arranged the pose. The picture was
taken In few seconds.
''Thank you, general" said the I'M
abashed American easily.
81 hope your picture turns out well, =
replied General Won Kissing, and the
interview was over. Once they were
outside the door, the officer eXpostu-
lated:
"How did you come to address, his
excellency? 1t is most unprecedented.
And you laid your hand on him. How
could you do SOP"
"Mein lieber freund,' said the Amer
lean, 81 have photographed three Amer
lean presidents and general more or
less is nothing to me-"

Write Them Often

Today there are more than
100000 men in the service OF
Uncle Sam. Some of them are
in the trenches in France. many
of them are behind the lines in
training camps, many OF them
are located in camps in this
country and mum bers of them
are on the high seas.
All miss the home life to which
they were accustomed. Some.
times they are lonely and a bit
disheartened. 1t is the duty of
US who are still at home to cheer
them as best we may.
Have you written that letter
yet that you promised when the
boys were leaving for the front!
Have you tried to cheer the boys
who are serving for humanityf
If not, why not? e
Write of the pleasing things
which have happened at home.
Tell of your own personal
activities. Forget the war when
writing to the boys at the front.
The boy at the front has no
chance to forget that part and
he does not need reminding OF
the awful carnage.
It is the home news that he is
longing for. The things pleas
ant to his memories. Write him
now and keep the letters going.
He will make a better soldier if
you do these things and life in
the trenches will be made more
pleasant for him.

No Empty SilOs in 1918

Few dairymen in Bayfield, County
realized any profit from their cows
last winter. The man with his root
cellar and silo filled last fall is the
one.who realized the most from his
hay and grain fed to his cattle. The
farmers of this county lost at least
$50, 900 last winter in wasted space
I'm their silos. This does not include
interest on investment, time in cul-
tivation of corn crop and other items
such as labor. etc.
There have been good many
silos sold to farmers this season to
be used next year. The buyers oi
these sios have chosen well in their
investment, providing they get them
filled to the top, for the long winter
season. During the early part OF
1917 there were number of silos
sold to farmers about Washburn,
many of these silos were not filled
half full with silage. Many of the
owners of these silos feel discouraged
and disappointed in results they re-
ceived from this investment.
But wait moment, what did we
plan to fill the silo with? Most Of
us depended on corn alone. But
the weather man got the corn before
it was time to put it in the silo, also
the cold spring made the first cutting
of hay so late, we did not get any
second cutting for the. silo. We
must avoid this mistake. the second
time.
Did you ever remember when oats
and peas made failure, as the corn
did last year? This is crop which
we can depend on almost every year
for a good yield. This crop will
make fine insilage if cut and put

The SilO and Its Relation to Milk
Production

Someone has said, the old COW
Is a machine which manufactures our
feed into milk. We might also
say that the silo is one of the gov
erners which regulates the volume
of energy this machine will use in
producing a maximum amount of
milk, from the fuel it receives in
form of feed. This is why we are
looking for cows with large barrel
or in other words, capacity to con-
sumo large quantities of feed.

in the silo when the oat straw is just
turning and the grain is in dough
stage. The yield in tonnage per
acre will equal that of corn in this
county. 1t will average from eight
to ten tons per acre. The State
Experimental Station at Superior.
got this result last season. We do
not want our silo owners to stop
raising corn altogether but don t
depend on this crop exclusively as
most of us did last year.
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1918-04-18
The silo is the most economical 0

The silo is the most economical of
any of our farm equipment or build
ings. We can feed two cows from
feed grown for silage while we only
feed one from hay or pasture on the
same area of soil. This is very
important fact in our cut over lands
where the farms are yet small and
we need to increase food production
per acre.

Dat and Peas for Silage

You can sow 4 blu. oats and Il
blu. common yellow peas to the acre,
mixing them we'll before putting in
the drill and keeping them stirred
in the grain box on the drill while
sowing. This crop can be sown as
soon as the spring wheat is sown.
1t should be cut short and tamped
very solid as it goes in the silo, in
order to keep out the air and prevent
loss from spoilage.
There were Bayfield, County far
mers who put oats alone in their
silos last year with excellent results.
These men had plenty of silage when
their neighbors had long exhausted
their supply of roots and corn silage.
To convince the parties who put
oats in their silos last year, that it is
an excellent crop for silage, we had
analysed for food value, by the
State Chemist, with the following
results.
Silage content Protein Fat Fibre
Oats 5000 2.69 l.54 $50
(grown in
Bayfield,
County,
peas as

red clover AZ 1.2 ga
corn 1900 1T 8 90
You will notice that the oats alone
ranks well with other crops for silage
therefore, the combination of oats
snd peas will still be greater in pro-
tein, thus we can cut down on some
OF our concentrates and still hold up
the flow of milk.
This silage will make excellent
feed for sheep if fed in proper por-
ton with other feed, keeping these
crops in mind, along with some corn,
and clover, there should be no ex-
cuse for empty silos for next winter.
Roots
If there are only three or four
head of cows to be fed on your farm
roots can replace the silage with
very good results. After we have
