 Fed in Moderate Amounts.
 In an investigation conducted by specialists of the United States de- partment of agriculture, which includ- ed a study of nearly 800 stock farms Tn the corn belt states, 1t was found that sllage Is an excellent feed for breeding animals, but that from the standpoint of economy it ordinarily should be fed only in moderate amounts and that 1t should not replace too much of the cheap roughage. One hundred of the farms Cor nearly one-f1fth of those under consideration were feed ing silage. and their average winter feed bill was SIG per head. On 20 of these farms approximately F per cent of the ration was silage, an average of three-fourths of a ton being fed to the COW. AS fl per cent of the feed was made up of cheap roughage, the silage displaced only fodder and the more

And the man who only works thir-

public opinion may be brought to

The law provides ample methods to

This should not be done in secret
nor by unlawful methods. 1t should
be done openly at the bar of public
opinion, at the bar of justice. Within
a week there should be no idle men in
the Bluegrass. There will be no idle
men If the process of the law Is put
in operation with absolute impartial
ity, and men who are in position to
know and to aid in in enforcing the
law bring to bear also the power of
public opinion. That power should al
so be exercised on men who attempt
at this time to charge an excessive
price for labor. The men who because
of the dire need for food attempts to
demand an unreasonable price for la
Dor is as much an rofteer as the Grim

tries to hold up through the need @,
