THE SILO

A silo should be on every
dairy and stock farm because !:
First, silage is the only kind
OF feed that even approaches
the green feeds of summer
which are more palatable than
all dry feeds. Cows give more
milk when fed silage as part
OF the winter ration. Steers
for feeding and fattening vim
ter in better condition if fed
silage.
Second, a silo economies
storage space. Good silage re-
puries close packing and a
field of corn which would have
to be stacked outside the
barn, can be stored in a small
silo.
Third, it distributes the
farm labor. Silage making
comes at a time of the year
when other operations on the
farm do not need attention.
Fourth, corn the best silage
crop can be used in this form
in it's intirety but if harvested
in the usual manner, a great
deal of the crop such as the
stalk, husk, fodder, etc. is lost.
Save it by putting it in a silo.
Fifth, silo is one of the
most profitable investments
on the farm. A cheap temp
orary silo can be built but the
more permanent and costly
concrete silo is preferable if
finances permit the expendi-
ture.
The cost of a silage cutter
and the engine or horsepower
with which to run the machine
can be met by community CO.
operation in buying and oper-
alton of such machinery. The
permanent benefits to be de-
rived from the silo will much
more than repay for it's build
ing nd cost of the machinery
for it's operation.

Loyal What?
From NEW YORK CALL.

The New York Times. in a special
article recently, did an inestimable
honor to Admiral Kolchak and Gen
Russian loyalists" The evident in
ference is, of course, that the bolshe
wiki are "Russian disloyalists." The
terms ''loyalists" and "disloyalists"
are so likely to be banded about in
an effort to promote recognition of
the Kolchak government that it may
not be amiss to request our contem-
porary, for whose veracity in the re-
failing of facts we have so great re-
spect, to tell us to what it conceives
Kolchak and Denikine loyal" To
czarism or to republicanism? To po-
litical democracy or to political auto
cracy? To industrial democracy or
to industrial slavery? To program
of antiSemitism or to a program of
justice to all the races within the
empire? The answers to these ques-
tions are most important. if we are,
hereafter, to understand the political
alignment in Russia, and we hope
that our esteemed contemporary will
not shirk the task of answering these
questions, keeping clearly in mind
the recent conduct of Kolchak and
Denikine, their political antece-
dents, the recent pronouncement of
Kolchak as to his program. and
the nature of the interests which are
devoting themselves to the promo
ton of the Influence of the admiral
and the general.

Today's Anniversary

The immortal hymn, Lead, Kind
ly Light, was composed and first
sung on an oragne boat becalmed on
the Mediterranean eighty-six years
ago today. John Henry Newman,
afterward Cardinal Newman, stricken
with fever and very despondent, was
on board the craft. which like a
painted ship upon a painted sea,
lay off the Island of Caprora. 1t
was to cheer himself and to help
drive away the depression that filled
the mind and thoughts of dire things
that the sick man composed, within
an hour or two, the words and air
of Lead, Kindly Light" He read it
to the idle sailors, and then hummed
the tune, and the English seamen on
board soon caught it up. The date
of the composition of the hymn was
the turning point in Newman's ca
reer. He became leader in the OK
FORD movement in England, and in
1S45 went over to the Church of
Rome, and eventually became car
dinal.
