My dear SIR
Your letter OF the 18th inst, reached
me yesterday.
In view OF the application you have
made OF my remarks on the subject
OF certain class OF lawyers certain
~ owe You a most humble apology,
and sincerely trust that you will ac-
cept the apology in the same spirit
IA which n Is expressed.
assure you, Mr.. Dwyer. that in
what ! had TO say regarding lawyers
who prostitute themselves and their
profession that did not have the re-
hottest intention OF applying II 20 you
was applying tho remarks 70 those
to whom II does apply and not TO you.
And most certainly. IL you thought
that was ass enough to write such
things and try to apply them to a re-
putable attorney, and one or whom /
have never heard anything but good
and more especially one whom l new
er have had the pleasure Of meeting
personally. you would be more than
justified in not waiting for the slow
process of law TO secure redress.
After receiving your letter i have
read the editorial very carefully. and
I can SEQ where there Is a chance for
II 10 be interpreted in the way in
which You have done, and certainly
wish 20 do anything can 10 make
amends. Of course, your name does
not appear in the editorial, and
doubt IL any reader OF the Journal,
aside from my Iron county editorial
friends, knew who defended King. and
for that reason ! doubt whether its
publication in The Journal could be
held libelous. However am not a
lawyer, as you suggest. and even
though knew II was not libelous
would not split any hairs over II, but
would do anything within my power
10 calm the just rage of one whom ]
had Internationally wrongod. II IS
my honest. earnest purpose not 10 do
amy man wrong. and assure you
that had no intention OF going over
into Iron county and selecting law
yer who stands high In his profession.
and against whom have never heard
a disparaging remark. and whom
have never met, as one TO whom 10 do
a wrong
In view OF the fact that your namo
did not appear in The Journals edit
orial, and none OF our readers knew
the namc OF the lawyer who defended
King, cannot see what good IL will
do 20 bring your namc into the mat
ter through the columns OF my news

stand TO one plant 10 every 10 or liz
inches. They are cut for ensilago
when IL 70 IA OF the seed Is tn the
milk stage. The stalks are passed %
the ensilage cutter and treated just
like corn.
Two lots OF cows we're used in a
test TO find the relative feeding value
OF the silage. Each lot contained 4
cows as near equal as possible in
breed, age, weight. condition. etc. Lot
! received grain and clover hay. Lot
2 received grain, clover hay and sun
flower silage. At the end OF the first
70 days the lots were reversed. each
receiving tho feed for the next 2s
days which the other lot had received
for the first period The COWS gained
an average OF IL pounds each when
fed on grain and clover hay. On grain
clover hay and sunfower silage the
average gain was six pounds. The
grain ration was the same through
out the entire experiment and an av-
erage daily feed OF "a pounds OF sun
flower eusilage saved pounds Glow
or hay per day per COW. There was
a slight increase in production while
the cows were receiving sunfower en-
silage.
Al the Nevada experiment station
sunfiowers were grown and fed with
excellent results The coarse stems
and heads, including the seed. went
through tho proper stages OF fsrmen-
tation and worked up into a mealy
succulent pulp which was very palat-
able and which was entirely consumed
by the stock. In Illinois an agricul-
tural agent reports that ono OF his
farmers planted Mammoth Russian
sunfiowers at the rate of pounds per
acre. They were about lilo in bloom
when cut for silage. Six average
rows that were weighed yielded at the
rate OF Is IL tons per acre. Corn on
the Same soil would average 10 10 IL
TONS per acre. II is found that sun
towers are an especially good crop
for adverse conditions such as dry
spells. insects and early frosts. Sun
flower silage is practically equivalent
to corn silage in feeding value. This
may not be maintained when there is
large percent of ear corn Ia the sill
age but up in this northern section
we do not get a large percent OF ear
corn and the sunHowers, therefore,
with their heavy seed heads will make
just about as rich feed.
A county agent from Colorado re-
ports the Russian sunfiowers were
planted in his county from May 18th |

was one OF the worst freezes ever

May Refuse To CONFIRM
Appointment OF Palmer.

The appointment Of Mr. Palmer
hasn't entirely put a quietus on spec
ulatiOn, for the outgoing Senate did
not confirm the Presidents choice,
and it is quite within the bounds of
possibility that the new senate may
refuse to make permanent the present
interim appointment. There's also
room for considerable discussion as TO
whether or not the incoming Congress
will put the seal of approval on the
nomination of John Shelton Williams
another interim appOintment-to
succeed himself as Comptroller of the
Currency: and the resi- snation OF
George Carroll Todd from the post of
Assistant Attorney General gives us
opportunity to indulge i'm q little

Atop Cafe st. Marx.

The room is canopied with sand
color, with the ceiling of the church
towering high above, so that the VEN
tilatiOn is perfect. The numerous
church windows, hidden away behind
the garden wall, also help to keep the
air fresh and sweet. The decorations
are most effective, dull blue and
rich orange blended in true Maxfeld
Paris style; and great Italian lanterns
hung from the ceiling cast a rich
light over all. The pillars which
support the canopied ceiling are
checkered orange and blue in me-
dieval fashion, and the tables and
chairs are Of dull blue, with soft tan
cushions TO make the latter comfort
able A space in the center of the
room is cleared for dancing.

With the announcement Of the
resignation of Thomas Nelson Page

vious necessity of naming i new am
bassador there, has come revival Of
the pleasant pastime of speculating,
which suffered heavily when Hugh c.
Wallace was appointed American am

Palmer nominated Attorney General
to succeed Thomas Watt Gregory.
Furthermore. there is the pleasant
prospect of welcoming the Thomas
Nelson Pages home; and the fun of
speculating as to what they will do
for a home when they get here, since
their Washington residence has been
rented for the last few years to the
Italian Ambassador and Countess di
Cellere.
Word has come that the Pages have
purchased a farm in Virginia. not
fifty miles from Washington, and the
story is that Mr.. Page has ambitions
to become a gentleman farmer. and
that they expect to spend most of the
year in the country. However, II re-
mains to be seen whether or not they
will take over their town house from
