DON'T FORCET THE SILO.

Now is the timesto tighten the hoops
on the stave silo, say the agricultural
engineers of Iowa State College. AS
the contents are removed the slaves
will begin to dry out and shrink up,
so that the hoops should be given a
turn or two occasionally. If this
this is done once week it will often
save the silo from blowing over in a
hard storm, since it is more apt to
fall when the slaves are loose. Also
inspect the guy lines once in while
and See that they are working pro-
perly.

Why That Headache2

When you know the cause OF dis
ease a cure may. often be effected.
This is particularly true of headaches.
Headache often results from constipa-
ton or disordered condition of the
stomach, which may be corrected by
taking a dose or two of Chamberlain's
Tablets. Try it. These tablets are
easy to take and mild and gentle in
effect.-For Sale By A. G. Philip.

MARKETING OF LANES.

Several requests have come to the
Farm Bureau office from farmers who
have few lambs to sell, complaining
that there is no local market. We
wish that the farmers who wish to
dispose of their lambs in the near
future, would notify the Farm Bureau
office. An effort will be made TO
secure enough consignments to make g
shipment. Don't delay furnishing
this information to the office as it
may mean that you will be without "a
suitable market if you should try to
sell them locally.

STORING GRAINS.

There seems to be little relief at
present of the car shortage before fall
shipments of grain start. In fact
many shippers doubt if all the last
seasons grain will be moved before
the new reaches the market.
Should such be the case it is doubt
full if the elevators will be able to take
care Of much OF the grain hauled from
the fields, hence it would be well for
farmer to construct or repair tenn
porory building to hold this years
harvest for short time at least. An
effort should be made to store grain
in barns that are not infested with
rats or that are repaired so that the
grain will not be wasted. The con-
tinuance OF labor troubles, the short
age of coal and apparent lack of mo-
tive power on the railroads makes 1t
imperitve that the farmers take pre-
cautions to handle their products anu
retain them on the farm. If the coal
situation continues. it may be neces !
sary for some Of the dear folks in
Iowa to burn corn this year as has &C.
Cured in some of the past history Of
our country.
AT the present writing it is impos-
sible to secure a carload of coal for
shipment in Delaware County. Pro-
vision should be made for good sup
ply of fuel this winter and when wood
is available arrangements should be
made to secure the same.
The officers and co-operators of the
Farm Bureau met in a business ses-
sion on the afternoon Of June 10TH,
for the purpose of outlining the future
policies OF the Farm Bureau.
Mr.. M. A. Hauser of Marshall Coun-
ty, successful farmer, and a man who
has been much Interested in the pro-
motion OF the Farm Bureau work, pre-
scented the meeting plan for arriving
at the program of work. In this dis
cussion Mr. Hauser used an outline
from Orange Township, in Black
Hawk county. This township is rated
as one Of the best agricultural town
ships in the United States, having bet
ter homes, better schools and better
farming than is found on the average.
People in Orange township have defi-
nitely decided that no one is going to
study their proglems but themselves,
and they must do so collectively Tie
matter of combating diseases among
their farm animals is community
problem. The matter OF roads,
schools and churches and all factors
which enter into community life must
be worked out collectively.
AS a result of this conference the
different townships in the county VIII
call meetings in the near future at
which time farmers and their wives
will be invited to attend and express
themselves in regard to the great
problems in the community and what
should be done to solve them. Colony
township has already taken up this
line of work which will be completed
in the near future. Already the farm
ers of that district have decided that
the road problem demands the atten-
ton of the people in that community
and should be developed. Their pol

"''' PASIIME...WAR
(From Capper's Weekly

SdPPSA y
Here are some figures that will as
tonish you. They are taken from Oh
fetal statistics of what the war mas
cost the Unittd States, not what IL
will cost us, because by the time we
get it paid for it will cost much more
Here are the facts:
/. The war cost the United States
considerably more than one million
dollars an hour for more than two
years.
2. The direct cost was about ~
billion dollars, or nearly enough to
pay the entire cost Of running the
United States government from 1871
up to the outbreak Of the European
| war.
3. Our expenditures in this war
were sufficient to have carried on the
revolutionary war continuously for
more than 1000 years at the rate OF
expenditure which was actually in
volved.
| 4. In addition to this high expendi-
ture nearly 10 billion dollars have
been lent by the United States to the
allies.
S. The army expenditures have
been more than IA billion dollars, or
nearly two-thirds of our total war
cost.
6. During the first three months
our war expenditures were at the rate
Of two million dollars day. During
the next year they averaged more
than % million dollars day.
Z. Although the army expendi-
lures are less than two-thirds Of our
total war costs, they are nearly equal
to the value Of all the gold produced
in the whole world from the discov-
cry of America up to the outbreak OF
the European war.
s. The pay of the army during the
war cost more than the combined sal
aries of all the public school teachers
In the United States for the five years
from 1912 to 1916.
8. The total war cost to all allies
fas 166 billion dollars
10. The United States spent one
fifth of the entire expenditures on the
allied side.

pencil, so you can figure out your
share. Then write the tax collector

The Rambler recognized Uncle

has been doing the "rube" stunt with
shows for 20 years. He and his wife
have made countless thousands laugh
as thep pretend to be unsophisticated
country folks in town for the first

talented couple in Louisville some
Is years ago, with the Heagenbach-

he had not seen Mr.. Davis in that
long a time the Rambler recognized
him at once. Buck Turner knows the
Davises well and has seen them block
traffic on many a street with their
perfect acting. They used to drive n

would have everybody roaring with
laughter over the way they got tan
gled up with the circus wagons.

Over Righteousness.

The chorus at the union revival
meetings had so gained in number,
ana volume of expression that DR.
Maccallum who also leads the choii
complimented them openly and the
audience applauded its approval of the
compliment Mrs. X. Hatch and Mrs
D. IL. McCook sang duet. Miss Anna
Peyton Compton will return to Pen
dleton to both sing and lead the choir
tuesday and Wednesday evening. For
tonight there will be "a union mems
banquet at 600 p. m. furnished by the
flhdies of both the Methodist and Pres
| byterian churches After the dinner
matters of material interest relative to
the revival will be put before the men.
Righteousness Is Theme
In his pleading with men and women
last night to play the game of life
square, DR. MacCallum reached the
heights of oratory and eloquence. The
speakers theme was built around the
historic meeting of Paul the apostle
with Felix the Roman governor with
his wife Drucilla, whom he had stolen
from another man. AS Paul eloquent
ly spoke of righteousness. self control
and Judgment to come. Felix was terri
fled and sent Paul back to prison.
Felix didn't become a christian be-
cause he didn't wish to give up his
political position, nor his wife her
place in 'sawciety."
ITO ruin a man today" said the
speaker, don't slander him, just elect
him to a public office"
"A dude" said Dr. MacCallum
lis "A wart on socitey and a dudine is a
Wart that has bursted."
Types are Contrastcd
A strong contrast was drawn by the
speaker between Mrs. Drummond the
daughter of Marsheli Field who lost a
800 900 nccklase on a ship not long
ago and Jane Addoms the great social
worker. Said the speaker Mrs. Drum
mond's life was to show off such bau-
bles-Jane Addoms to uplift commun
ity."
World Is ''Too Busy"
Felix was too busy cried the
evangelist with his politics and assa-
sins to follow Paul's message" Men
are too busy now to become Chris
tians--High finance has ruined
many men,
Get rich quick schemes are ram
pant in the country and are held up

is all rank crookedness. l plead with
you men to-play the game of life

Callum was impassioned-'D Don't soft

OF a volcano, sin is not an allusion. but
