Filling The Silo.

During the time corn was sell
ing at $3.50 per bushel many
farmers said that it was too
high priced to put in the silo.
now these same farmers are
saying that corn is too cheap to
put in the silo. AS a matter of
fact it looks like now is the
time to fill the silo. Corn is
down in bad shape and the
ground is wet and the grass is
growing very fast. Much corn
will rot before husking time
besides as much of it will be lost
IN the grass and the expense of
husking will be higher than it
would be if the corn was stand
ing. Corn is going to sell at a

The Date is October 7th.
The past seasons wheat har-
vest was very materially low
cred because of the Hessian hy.
Every part of the county show
ed i~nfestation. If natural caus-
es do not operate to destroy the
fly we can expect it to be so
prevalent as to almost DESTROY
the wheat crop, however, farm
ers have it within their power
to control the fly. Men have
spent all of a life time determin-
ing when the fly lays its eggs;
when the fly dies; when the
eggs hatch and what stages
they go through during their
live cycle. This is not so diff
cult bat what any of us could do
the same if we spent all our
time trying to determine these
things. They have discovered
that the fly does not lay. eggs
after October 7th. They know
that the fly must have what
on which to lay the eggs. Occa-
sionally a few are laid on rye
or oats but these are of no con-
sequence. 1t is then only a
question of destroying all wheat
that is growing previous to that
date and seed only after that
date to control the fly absolute
iy. Of course, there is a possi-
bility of some natural enemy
destroying it but that is a long
chance to take. The safe thing
this year is to disc the wheat
gound thoroughly in order to
destroy all volunteer wheat and
then seed after October 7th. To
be the most effective a neigh
should club together in
order to control all the wheat
otherwise flies from your
neighbors earlier seeded wheat
may fly over and infest your

very low price and indications
are that feeding win be a bet

surplus than by selling it. While
feeder cattle are high now, the
wet season has held the usual

probable that heavier runs will

 At the Paris conference Miss Abbot gave a paper on educational work in the Metropolitan Museum, and the last part of her talk, which was a resume of this former paper, gave her audience new idea of the important work being done in New York. There are Sunday afternoon talks and supplemental work during the week for children. One recent Sunday one thousand children attended and one hundred and fifty were turned away. There are week day classes for defective children, that is. the blind, deaf, etc., and there are classes for high school and normal school pupils. Some lectures are open to the public for a small fee and special classes are pro- vided for buyers in stores and for man. ufacturers In order to raise the stand ard of American goods.
