GREAT MYSTERY
SURROUNDS FINDING
OF SUNKEN Liner
Although $50 Persons We're Aboard
Vessel No Bodies Are Found
Near the Wreck.

Key West, Fla, September 20.-With
a wrecking crew and divers examining
the sunken hull, and with scores of
boats searching surrounding waters
and islands for trace of bodies or sur
vivors, the fate of the $50 passengers
and crew of the Spanish steamer Val
banera which foundered during the
hurricane last week, was expected to
be cleared up today. The naval sta
ton here has offered ali facilities, and
with two Cuban gunboats, will aid 9TH
or craft In the search.
The Valbanera, bound from Span
ish ports to Havana, was last heard
from on the night of September s,
when she appeared off the entrance to
Havana harbor. Yesterday a steamer
bearing that name, but reported by
divers to be much smaller than the
missing vessel, was found sunk off
Rebecca shoals light, 40 miles from
Key West
The wreck was located by the coast
guard cutter Tuscarora and the sub
chaser 203, and was resting on a bed
of quicksand in about 40 feet of water.
Divers reported that the wreck bore
the name Valbanera, but said the ves-
sci appeared only halt as large as tine
missing liner. Ensign B. R. Roberts,
commander of the sub-chaser, also
said he had seen the name plat on the
Valbanera on the wreck, and his state
ment confirmed the belief that the
sunken vessel was the one sought.
There were no bodies in the vicinity
of the wreck, and nothing to indicate
what had became of the passengers
and crew.

Praised.

Pointing out advantages Of member
ship in the Federal Reserve system to
Central Kentucky state bankers In
conference in the Phoenix Hotel, Lex
ington, Friday p. G. Wills, of Cleve-
land, president of the Board of Direc-
tors of the Cleveland Federal Reserve
district, featured the fact that mem
bership in the system greatly reduces
the reserve of the state bank and
thereby enables 1t to loan. more money
and otherwise manipulate in sound A.
nance to the advantage of itself and
the community In which it Is located.
After the chief address of the confer
ence by Mr.. Wills and brief addresses
by bankers present, the conferees in
dulged in round table discussion
In the general discussion the lack of
knowledge of many state bankers Of
the advantages accruing to the state
bank, which has membership in the
Federal Reserve system was indicated.
All intimated, however that they were
favorable inclined to the system.
Kentucky, in the lead in many ac-
tivities in which the government asked
the support of the states, according
to Mr.. Wills, is behind in the interest
its state banks are taking in the Fed
eral reserve system This fact, in it
self, was driven home to the bankers
by Mr.. Wills.
Mr.. N. S. Calhoun, Vice President Of
the Bank Of Maysville, was in attend

GOOD COVERING FOR SlLAGE
Run in Cornstalks From Which Ears
Have Been Removed--Top 10
Thoroughly Tramped Down.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agricuture.)
Several years ago it was common
practice to cover the silage with some
material, such as dirt or cut straw, in
order to prevent the top layer from
spelling. At present when any proyi-
sion at all is made for this purpose it
consists usually in merely running in
on top cornstalks from which the ears
have been removed. BY this method
some of the corn grain is saved. The
heavy green cornstalks pack much bet
ter than straw does and so exclude the
air more effectually. The top is thor
oughly tramped and then wet down.
Sometimes oats are sown on the top be-
fore wetting The heat generated by
the fermenting mass will cause the oats
to sprout quickly and form a dense
sod, which serves to shut off the air
from the slage beneath, and in con-
sequence only very shallow layer
spoils. Whenever possible, it is better
to begin feeding from the silo as soon
as 1t is filled; by doing this no cover
ing is necessary and there should be no
loss on account of spelling.

tilated 1t Is preferable to expose the
horses to digestive troubles on the
pastures rather than to attempt to
carry them in the barns.
The feet Of the work animals
should be examined frequently during
the summer, in order that accumula-
tons of dirt may be removed. A few
moments devoted to scraping out the
hoofs each morning and evening will
add to the comfort of the beasts, as
often such foreign materials as nails
or stones lodge in the wall or sole OF
the foot or are collected In the clefts
Of the frog or between the bars and
the frog If the hoofs are excessive
ly dry or brittle, they should be
softened with some good oil or hoof
ointment, and if they are ragged or
tend to split, they should be rasped
on the edges and trimmed until
smooth.
1t is advisable to clip horses when
the weather warns up In the spring
and heavy work begins. When clip
ped, they work much better, and they
do not become chilled after work from
having thoroughly soaked the heavy
coat of winter hair with perspiration.
Horses that are clipped as soon as
heavy spring work begins should be
bianketed at night.
