WE Do THE FINEST REPAIR
WORK THAT CAN BE DONE.
ESTABLISHED IN 1861

Other men are hesitating to put up ST.
los because of the same reason
Feeding experiments have shown
without question. that the loss in food
value of corn which goes through the
silo to be much less than that which is
cut the foGder. Olie-third of the food
value of the corn plant is in the stalk
and leaves. Why not save it by put
ting it in the silo?
There should be silo on every
stock farm in st. Francois county. A
good many new ones will be built this
year. The scarcity of labor will tend
to hinder the building of concrete ST.
los, but then there are the ready made
stave silos and the numerous home
made silos which are satisfactory and
may be built easily and with little ex-
pcnse. The Gurler Silo is probably
the best homemade silo. 1t can be
built entirely from ordinary lumber;
requires no highly skilled labor for it's
construction; preserves the silage as
well as any type of silo in use and is
strong and durable when properly
made. The following is an estimate
of the bill of material required to
build Gurler silo Id feet in diane
ter by 81 feet in height, which will
have capacity of about 100 tons. 1t
is assumed that three feet Of the
height of this silo will be below the
top of the foundation. This estimate
does not include roofing materials or
the nails. 1t is probable that enough
scraps will be left over from which to
construct the frame work of the roof

The Germans are said to have six
routes of retreat--each one, owing to
allied artillery fire, little more diff

'SED|T|ON MEASURE
/ PASSED BY SENATE;
NO RECORD VOTE
Bill Which Has Been Bitter
ly Debated Now Goes to
Conference-Final En-
actment Soon

washington, April 10.-The sedition
bill. prohibiting under penalties of 70
years Imprisonment and $4,000 fine, Ian
guage or acts of disloyalty or obstrdc-
ton of the army draft and Liberty Loans.
was passed today by the Senate without
a record vote. 1t now goes to confer
eace between the Houes and Senate and
final enactment is expected soon.
protractsd and bitter debate marked
consideration of the measure the pas
sage of which has been strongly urged
by administration officials, to permit
the government itself to deal with dis
|loyal agitators and check the growing
dangers of mob violence.
Although modified to meet the ohjec-
tons of senators who claimed the origi-
nal draft would curb legitimate freedom
of speech, the bill retains the broad m
hlbition of words or acts which support
or favor the cause of the German empire
or its allies. . +. or oppose the cause
Of the United States" 1t also would
punish "willful and disloyal, profane,
scurrilous, contemptuous or abusive Ian
guage about the American form of gov
forces, flag or uniform" and willful ut
terances designed to curtail production
of essential war materials.
The Senate adopted an amendment by
Senator Jones OF New Mexico, providing
for dismissal of federal executive en-
ployes making disloyal statements. This
was a substitute for one introduced by
Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania several
days ago, after attacks had been made
upon George Creel. chairman of the com.
mittee on public information, and other
officials on account of their writings in
the past.
Senator Lodge, after he and other SEN
ators had denounced alleged dsoyal
publications in the German-American
press, withdrew his amendment prohibit
| ing German language publication unless
paralleled by English TRANSACTIONS. Sem
ator Nelson of Minnesota opposed the
amendment, declaring 1t an insult to
loyal Americans of German blood. Sem
ator Borah of Idao hid not press an
amendment he had offered to repeal the
Postmaster Generals press censorship
authority conferred in the original es-
pionagc act.

Ten Reasons Why
You Should Send for Brooks
Rupture Appliance

/. It is absolutely the only Aprli-
ance of tho kind on the market today.
and in 1t are emb odied the principles
that inventors have sought after for
years.
2. The Appliance for retaining the
rupture cannot be thrown out OF posi-
ton.
3. Being an air cushion of soft rub
Der 1t clings closely to the body, yet
never blisters or causes irritation.
4. Unlike the ordinary so-called
pads used In other trusses. 1t Is not
cumbersome or ungainly.
s. It is small. soft and pliable. and
positively cannot be detected through
the clothing.
.. The soft. pliabls bands holdins
the appliance do not give ono the un-
plee SAINT sensation Of wearing har-
ness.
Z. There is nothing about 1t to get
foul. and whom II becomes soiled It
can be washed without injuring 1t in
the least.
.. There are no metal springs in tho
Appliance to torture one by cutting
and bruising tho flesh.
.. All OF the material Of which the
Appliances are made IL of the very best
that money can buy. making II . dur.
able and safe Appliance to wear.
10. Ny reputation for honesty and
