PROUD COWS.

People may say what they like about cows, moo, mOo,' said Mrs Cow.
 Why may they?" asked Miss Cow.
 q only stopped to take a little chew" said Mrs. Cow. T wasn't through talking at all."
 ''Then continue, moo, moO," said Miss Cow.
 "Pll begin all over again" said Mrs. Cow.
 ''Very we'll, moo, moo," said Miss Cow, but don't stop where you did before. Wait until you get through, to chew"
 '1f can walt that long," said Mrs. Cow.
 People may say what they like about cows, moo. moo, but at any rate they cannot but say" And Mrs. Cow began to chew again.
 Well, moo, moo, you got a little further along in your story that time" said Miss Cow, ''but I'd like to hear more. Don't go back to the beginning again, but start where you left off"
 Cant do that" said Mrs. Cow, but will not chew until I finish this time. Or, at any rate, I will not chew so hard that have to stop talking.
 T will keep on chewing and talking, and that will be pleasant"
 Of course" said Miss Cow, i've heard the children say that it wasn't polite to talk with ones mouth full. And your mouth is pretty full of grass now"
 "Pll swallow some of it," said Mrs. Cow.
 q don't believe that is considered very polite either" said Miss Cow.
 Don't be too fussy," said Mrs. Cow. Remember, my dear, I am only cow"
 ? "Only COW, it is true" said Miss Cow.
 q will tell my story right through this time,p said Mrs. Cow, land if talk with some grass in my mouth and chew while I'm talking at times, you must remember I'm only cow, and that you would do the same"
 "T'll remember said Miss Cow.
 Well" said Mrs. Cow. 'to begin at the beginning once more"
 "Oh, dear" said Miss Cow, 'I do wish we could get on faster with the story"

 SiIage Cutter Needs to Be Strong.
 If the silage cutter and lifting ma chinery have not been selected, every effort should be made to get ma ehinery which has sufficient or ex- cess capacity. The mistake is often made of getting an outfit that is too small, thus making the operation of filling the silos slow and interfering with the continuous employment of the entire force of men. A number of satisfactory silage cutters are on the market. The chief features to be considered in a cutter are that it is strongly made and will cut fine.
 Opinions differ as to the fineneSs to which silage should be cut. The length varies from one-fourth to one inch. The latter is a little too long, as the pieces do not pack so closely in the silO, and they are not so completely HI 4CCulnS dS AAAC OAAOA NOA lengths. On the other hand, the longer the pieces the more rapidly the corn can be run through the cutter. Fine cutting and thorough tramping are needed if 1t is desired to make the best quality of silage and fill the silo to it's greatest capacity.
 Two types of elevators are in use- the old-style chain carrier and the blower. The chain carrier requires less power, but is harder to set up and makes more litter, especially in windy weather, though some chain car riers are so inclosed as to keep the corn from blowing out. In using the blower type the blower should be placed as nearly perpendicular as pos sible.
 Harvest Corn Before Fully Ripe.
 Ordinarily, corn should be harvested for the silo about a week or ten days before it would be cut for shocking; that is, when about 90 per cent of the kernels are dented and at least 75 per cent of the kernels are hardened so that no milk can be squeezed out. At this time the lower leaves on the stalk are turning yellow and the green corn fodder contains 65 or 70 per cent of moisture, which is sufficient for sil- age. Silage made from corn contain ing moisture enough for proper preser- vation is more palatable than that made from corn so mature as to re- quire the addition of water

oh, Cow For I'm not a deer; I'm a cow"
 q didn't mean that kind of deer" said Miss Cow. q meant Oh, dear as an expression. It is spelled diff ferentiy from the way the animals name is spelled"
 "Oh, all right" said Mrs. Cow.
 "Well," she began again, after an- other pause during which she chewed very hard, people may say what they like about cows, moo, moo, but at any rate they cannot but say that we are always among wor,s of art. There, finished that time."
 But I don't know what you mean" ,"
 q mean," said Mrs. Cow, that no one can go to an art gallery in which paintings of cows.
 "YeS, we're considered works of art. We're considered beautiful enough to paint. I've heard that at any picture gallery any of the people here have ever visited they have always seen some paintings of cows.
 That shows we're beautiful, for we have our pictures painted and are con- sidered fine enough to be hung in art galleries"
 Miss Cow shivered and her big eyes looked frightened.
 "Oh, don't mean we are hung in the art galleries, but the paintings of us are.
 'Pve seen an artist painting our meadow here, and looked at his pie ture when he wasn't looking, and l saw a picture of myself therei
 Perhaps he was too tired to paint anything any more exciting than a COW, but at any rate we had our pie lures painted, and so, no matter what people say about our dullness, at least we are works of art"

it is necessary to place the carbon disulphid on top of the seeds in order that the gas may sink into them and reach every part of the container. A tight tin pail, box, or barrel makes an excellent container for fumigating seeds. For tight barrel full of seeds one-half cupful of carbon disulphid is sufficient. For smaller containers, use in proportion.
 Seeds to be fumigated must be dry. and if they are in paper bags, the bags should be opened. The gas penetrates cloth bags easily. The liquid may be placed in any shallow dish, such as a saucer or plate, or merely poured on the seeds. The liquid will not iniure the seeds if poured directly upon them. Immediately after starting the fumiga. tion, the cOntainer should be covered with several thickneSses of heavy paper, or other tight cover, and al. lowed to remain covered from one tO two days. A longer Immigration in tin pails is apt to injure the germinatinq power of the seeds.

Washington-The killing of two American mining men, R. c. Smith, Vinita, Okla, and E. E. Kilsingbury, Los Angeles, Calif., by a Mexican at Dolores, Mexico, has been reported to the State Department. The report gave no details. The Americans were employed by the Dolores Mining Com pany. Consul Ott received assur- rances from the governor of Chihua- hua, in which state Dolores is To- cated, that he would immediately send a detachment of police in pursuit.

 With the approach of the time for filling the siIo the United States De partment of Agriculture calls attention to the desirability of putting silOs in shape and making plans for filling which will save valuable time in the rush of work. Silos are a cOmpara- lively new feature of farm manage ment. and in many cases have been built less substantial than some of the older forms of farm structure.
 SiIos Need Occasional Attention
 Even the best constructed silos will need some attention occasionally. Con- crete silos, which are among the most expensive of construction, require the least attention as general rule, but they will give better service if the inside is given a ooat of special paint about once in three years. Paint for treating the interiors of silos is easily made of new coal tar mixed with gasoline and applied with a tar brush
 Wooden silos, either Stave or board construction, require additional atten- tiOn. The hoops of slave silos should be frightened and any defective pieces of wood replaced. In wood silos, par tlcularly the cheaper ones and those of home make, there is always the likelihood of inlets for air, which will spoil the silage. If the silo Is so built as to require guy wires, these should be frightened to keep the build ing plumb and we'll braced to with stand winds.
 Small Bundles Easier to Handle.
 Careful attention should be paid to seeing that the machinery to be used in harvesting and storing the silage is in working condition. Corn harvest CTS and silo-filling machinery are ire quently owned in partnership by sew eral farmers and, of course, arrange ments need to be made in advance to see that all the owners get their corn in at the season when it is in best shape. In using the corn harvester the bundles should be made rather small. While this takes more time, the extra expense is more than offset by the ease in handling the bundles and feeding them into the silage cut ter.
 The corn ordinarily is hauled to the cutter on common, fiat bayracks. The lOw-wheeled wagon is much preferred to the high one. An underslung rack can be constructed with comparative ease and will save much labor. The, rack consists of two 4 by 6 inch bed pieces, 10 or 20 feet in length, bolted together at the end to form V. On top of these timbers is built a rack feet in width. The bottom of this rack is about feet long. The end boards are feet high. built faring so they do not quite touch the wheels.
 The apex of the V is suspended be- low the front axle of an ordinary farm wagon by means of long king bolt. The other ends are attached below the hind axle by U-shaped clevises. The materials needed in its construction are 80 board feet of 4

HINTS ON SELECTING FOWLS
Fast Growing PuIIet That Begins to Lay Early Is an Indication of
 Health and Vigor.

Some bullets have inherent quali- ties that make them better than oth- CTS. They mature earlier, are fuller in body and begin to lay before others of the same age. These are the points to be observed in selecting stock for next year. If a bullet grows fast and begins to lay early it is an indication of health, vigOr and hardness.

 The late William Marion Reedy went tuna fishing of the Pacific Coast ''The tuna are kept in a roundhouse somewhere over near Japan" he wrote, ''and one of them is released every so often to make the round trip of the Pacific"

The boat had to do a merry 2o-round to keep the line from going under the keel, He reeled and un- reeled to keep the line from parting. For 1 hour and Il minutes man and fish fought. Then the tuna seemed tired out; it began to come in, when:
