slLAGE OF BIG IMPORTANCE
Use Of siIos Becoming More and More
Common Than Ever Before
Some Of Advantages.

At this season of the year, the ques-
ton of silage is always an important
one. There is less argument needed
for silos at the present time than has
been true in the past for their use is
becoming more and more common.
Some of the principal advantages Of
silos are, they require less space for
roughage than any other type Of stor-
age; Stage shows a good effect on
stock; it provides succulent feed in
summer as well as in winter; there
is no waste in feeding silage- for If
it is of good quality the cattle will
clean it up; it is easier to handle in
winter Or during a busy time than
shock fodder; its value as a feed has
increased in proportion to other feeds
so it is inst as economical to use as
1t eve was.

BIG ESSENTIALS IN POULTRY
Breeder Should Air for Early Matur-
ity and High Fog Production
for Best Results.

Early maturity and high egg pro-
ductiOn are the two essentials in
profitable poultry keeping. If the
standard of the fancier does not make
for utility or is a hindrance to con-
%structive utility breeding. then the
standard is in need of revision.
Whether 1t be in cattle, horses. sheep,
swine or poultry. the score card that
discriminates in the least against util-
ity value is a hindrance to the best
development of that breed. OF course
there are certain distinguished breed
characteristics that must be main
tanned. hut these. as a rule. are not
the fine points which are a continual
hindrance to the good breeder. For
tunately. public opinion is on the side
of the constructive breeder.

ALFALFA DIFFICULT TO CURE
Where Two Cuttings Are Made Grass
Is Green at Each Time on Ac-
count of Moisture.

When two cuttings of alfalfa are
made. the grass is very green at the
time of each cutting. 1t is therefore
difficult to cure, not only because of
the large amour of water the leaves
contain. but also on account Of the
large and succulent stems. With very
good hay weather the first crop may
be put in the NOV in about five days
after it is cut, by allowing it to lie in
the swath and with the use of a hay
tedder. On the other hand, rainy
weather will result in a poor quality
of hay.

AN APPRECIATION

Despite the fact that yesterday was a legal holiday, Labor day, The Times decided to follow the example of the large dailies of the states, and give it's readers the benefit of the news of the day. The day being a holiday, how ever, the cable office observed holiday hours, and opportunity to get the news of the day was very limited. Through the courtesy of Private John Champlin of the signal corps, operator in the cable office, who remained at his post all day, The Times was enabled to get its regular news service, including the championship boxing contest at Ben ton Harbor The Times greatly ap- preciates Private Champlin's assist ance in giving it's readers the news of the day while it was news.
