BEWARE OF SILO. GASES

Turn the machine on and
leave it on for at least two min

to enter a partly filed silo. Un-
less this rule is followed, the re-
suit is likely To he dead men. says
the United States Department of
Agriculture.
Annually fatalities occur
among the farmers and their
helpers as a result Of the work
men entering half filed silos af-
ter the deadly carbon monoxide
gases have had a chance to ac-
cumulate directly above the
freshly ensllaged corn.
Recently two Illinois farmers
were killed and another rendered
seriously sick by silo gases,
which are almost as dangerous as
poisonous mustard gases used
during the recent war. In this
instance one Of the farm work
men entered a ffty-foot silo
which had been half filed the
previous day. Some time elapsed
andwhen he did not come out
another of the hands asccnded
into the sllo. Neither reappear-

shouted to them repeatedly to
come down.
Fearing an accident, the farm
owner climbed into the silo. He
also was Immediately overcome
by the poisonous fumes. Only
the fact that others followed
him, and succeeded in opening
The extra silo door and carried
him into the open air saved his
life. The two other men were
;uffocated Immediately.

the following message commend
ing the promotion Of the Father
and Son Week:
1T is a great pleasure for me
to commend the Father and Son
Week to be observed again dur

THE success Of this movement
during the past four or five years
has won for it distinct place as
a most constructive institution
for increasing a more sympathe-
tic relationship between father
and son and thus strengthening
the home ties upon which the
stength Of our nation depends.

dates have been fixed to CORE

The lecture given by G. f.
Lindsley of the State University.
at the d. b. S. hall Tuesday eve-
ming and under auspices of the
local American Legion, Post, was
an excellent one.
Prof. Lindsey took his audi
ence back to the discovery Of
America. speaking Of frontier
life and pioneers. up to present
day history and world affairs.
He said that today in the state
Of Minnesota where we now
have fine farms, beautiful cities
and villages. a century ago--or
yesterday-it was a wilderness
with the Indian trail. Mr.. Linds-
ley said the days Of the pioneer
who went out into the wilder
ness or on the barren prairies
to build home and country is
about gone hut there are .pio.
neers in another sense--the pio.
neers who work in the labora-
tories, inventors, who look ahead
to make the world a better place
to live in and the pioneers who
struggle for freedom, liberty,
the pursuit Of happiness and
self-determination.
The speaker also referred
briefly to the covenant of the
League Of Nations what effect
it would have had on warning ma
tions and hate, jealousy and inn
perialism. He also pictured the
struggles of many Of the smaller
nations in their great desire for
liberty and self-determination.
Time and space will not permit
of lengthy write-up but brief
ly speaking it was an excellent
and instructive lecture that
gave food for thought and one
that has a tendency to make it's
auditors strive onward with a
clearer vision for good and to
make the world better place
in which TO live.
Mr.. Lindsey has been heard
twice before in Askov and it
seems that he is better appre-
ciated each time he appears. He
was given very close attention
throughout his lecture Tuesday
evening but the heat in the hall
made the audience rather rest
less toward the close.
