CITY MAY HAVE BIG FUTURE
Dakar, in South Africa, Promises to
Develop Into Something Like
Another Liverpool.

The city of Dakar in South Africa
less than half century ago in really
primitive condition, with naked chill
dren running around the streets and
mothers working with babies strapped
upon their backs, has suddenly come
into prominence as the prospective
Liverpool" of Africa. In the keen
competition that Is expected between
America and Europe for trade in South
Africa, Dakar, it is believed, will have
an important role to play.
The French are today making ex-
tensive improvements at Dakar. They
have spent much money In enlarging
the dry dock and making the harbor
deeper as well as increasing the facil-
tiles for transferring cargo from boat
to train. The Dakar of today is
thriving town of about 25,O00 people.
with wide well-laid-out streets, a large
technical school, hospitals and work
shops. There are, however. a great
majority of natives, being in fact, only
about $500 Frenchmen.
These natives have been said by
some to have formerly been the mas
ters of the Mediterranean. They are
wonderful fighters and it was only
with great difficulty that in 1862, Gen.
Faidherbe. the French governor, was
able to overcome them. Thus he paved
the way for the founding of Dakar.
We may know great deal more about
1t later.

PETS BELOVED BY SAINTS
Or. Douglas Hyde, In Series of Leo
lures, Deals Interestingly With
Medieval Irish Lore.

DR.. Douglas Hyde recently delivered
series of lectures-the Margaret
Stokes lectures-in the Alexandra col
lege, Dublin, dealing with medieval
Irish lore. He told anecdotes about
the Irish saints and their love of birds
and beasts. He traced the love of ami
mails by people in different periods
and In different countries. Even the
Irish pagans, had their pet animals,
says Our Dumb Animals.
He took the three Irish saints. ST.
Patrick, st. Brigid and st. Columcille,
and spoke of their affection for their
pet animals St. Patrick's kindness TO
the fawn was well authenticated. and
the fawn returned the love to his mas
ter.
st. Brigid had her pet dog, a most
faithful animal. She also loved birds.
and the birds, especially domestic
fowls, loved her in remarkable man.

surpassed that of the other saints. 1t
was recorded in the life Of the saint
that dumb animals, too, were In love
with him, especially birds, and that
some of the latter followed him from
Ireland to the island of Iona. There
was, in proof of the love of animals
for the saint, the story of how the
horse wept on the bosom of the saint
the night before he died.
DR.. Hyde mentioned q large number
of other saints, Irish and Latin, about
whom he told stories, showing their
love for animals, making special refer

Sorghum silage, according to United
States department of agriculture spe-
cialists, promises to become a cham
pion yieider Of winter succulence. not
only for dairy cows but for other live
stock which relish canned crops. I'm
fortunately, when sorghum was first
used for silage purposes, many grow
ers cut the sorghum too early, so that
when the material was removed from
the silo for feeding it was sour and
acid, and live stock rejected it. AS a
result, sorghum gained an evil reputa-
ton, although experiments have dem
onstrated that it is one of the most
admirable crops for ensilage purposes
that can be grown in the Great Plains
region.
In five years experiments at HAYS.
Kan, the average acre yield of sweet
sorghums was 1894 tons, as compared
with 8.06 tons of kafir and 3.8 tons of
corn. In eastern Kansas, where the
rainfall is 80 inches or more, on fer
tile soils sweet sorghums have yielded
1872 tons an acre, as compared with
11.88 tons of kafir and 11.81 tons of
corn silage. Detailed feeding expert
ments have shown that sweet sor-
ghum silage is proportionately equal
to corn and kafir silage for either beef
production or the maintenance of stock
animals, although for dairy cows this
variety of ensilage is less productive
because of its low content of protein.
Acidity Is Low.
Sorghum silage should be cut when
it is mature. its ripeness being denoted
by the presence of hard seed. The
test for ripeness is when the seed will
crack when crunched between the
teeth. When cut at this time 1t pro-
duces inequality silage which keeps
well and is more keenly relished by
cattle than corn silage. Experiments
show that the average acidity of corn
silage is 20S per cent, that of sweet
sorghum silage is 1.46 per cent, and
that of kafir silage is 1.43 per cent.
The United States department of ag-
riculture does not advocate the grow
ing of sorghum for silage in special
lied corn-producing localities, such as
