AT the approach Of spring it is now
time to turn our thoughts to the secur-

The county agent is now receiving
lists Of seed grain, grasses, corn, pota.
toes, ETC., for sale, and is in a position
to give information along this line. This
office will not buy or sell other than
clover and alfalfa, but will locate seed
and advise farmers where it can be OBJ
tanned. On account Of the scarcity Of
seed clover and the difficulty Of secur-
ing genuine Grimm alfalfa seed, which
is the only variety Of alfalfa recon-
mended for this locality; the county
agent will take orders for this seed.
The county agent has located some gen
uine Grimm alfalfa seed which he can
get shipped in for about forty or forty
two cents per pound.
Order your clover and alfalfa seed
as soon as possible. If you put it off
we may not be able to get it. 49,:

Is a Silo a Paying Investment?

LIS q S1l0 raging investment!
During the winter the county agent
has figured % balanced dairy feeding
rations for different farmers and in all
cases the cost Of feed per pound Of but
terfat has been figured. The average
cost Of feed for producing butterfat
from the % rations was 40@ cents per
pound. Fourteen Of the 20 rations con-
tanned silage. The average cost of
these per pound Of butterfat was 80
cents.
Eight rations were figured which did
not contain silage. The average cost
of these was 49, cents per pound. Ac-
cording to these figures butterfat was
produced 81 cents per pound cheaper
from the rations containing silage than
from those without silage.
On account Of the unusually high
prices Of hay and mill feeds the differ
ence is somewhat higher than it would
be in ordinary years. It is safe to say;
however, that in ordinary years there
would be difference of cents per
pound in favor Of the ration containing
silage. From this it should not be a
difficult matter to figure out whether
q silo would be a paying investment or
not.

I rint- riting in Place
OF Old~F ashiioned Script
Advocated in England

To abolish ript-writing annd re-
place it by print-writing is the pur-
pose of an inf1uentially-supp
movement begun in England. Advo-
Gates of the change contend that the
present system fails to stand the
test of commercial life in England
and causes a great loss of time and
labor.
The characters used in the pro
posed system are the ordinary print
ed letters, known as Roman block
letters, with the exception of thu
va" and "g' which are simplified
into their script forms. The print
characters were employed by Monks
long before script-writing came into
fashion and can still be seen in an
Gent manuscripts from which, in
fact, they were first copied by the
printer.
Advocates Of print-writing CLAIM,
ordinary handwriting, especially to
tiers being employed both for writ
ing and reading, the child learns
much more quickly, and it is further
asserted that his spelling and his
education as a whole are correspond
ingly benefited.
Many British educational authori-
ties favor print-writing and IL is
taught in numerous British schools.
No time is wasted in the new sys-
tenn on innumerable Jennings. Su-
perfluous loops and dourishes are
abolished.
One big London firm has adopted
the system and other concerns arc
said to be considering it's use.

Cape to Cairo Air
Service Expected to
Be Inaugurated Soon

Despite enormous difficulties being
met with In establishing the long air
route, it is expected that the Cape
to Cairo aerial mali service will be
in operation before the year is out
The first flight, it is said, probably
will be made in October of Novem-
Der.

vey parties now in the field detail
some Of the obstacles that have had
to be surmounted. Between Mala-

that no suitable landing place for an
airplane could be found 1t is, there
fore proposed to use a flying boat
for that stage Of the journey.
A month after the signing of the
armistice with Turkey the first sur
vey party was ready to start. Two
years previously the route from Sol
lum to Cairo had been used by Ma
jor MacLaren on his flight from
England to Egypt and aerodromes
had been built at Sollum, Mersa, Mat
rub and at Amria, near Alexandria,
while intermediate landing grounds
An aerodrome had been constructed
also at Khartum. in 1915.
For the purpose of the survey, At
RIGA was divided into three sections.
One party was assigned to Egypt,
the Sudan and as far south as Vic
toria Nyanza. The second covered
the central stretch from Victoria
Nyanza, through a part of what was
German East Africa to Qituta at the
southern end of Lake Tanganyika. A
third party inspected the line from
iKtuta to Cape Town.
A route via Egypt and the Arabian
coast to India is being developed
from Atbara to Trinkitat, on the Red
sea, and thence via the Farsan and
Kamaran islands to Perrin and Alden.
