Frost Blast Not
So Bad as First
Reported, Officials Say

Washington, Mar. S0.-With the
passing today of the old wave which
came on the heels of Easter, officials
of the Department, of Agriculture to-
night expressed the belief that the
fruit crop surplus of the country as
whole had not been materially af-
fected, despite reports from various
sections of heavy damage, First re-
ports in such cases they said, usual
ly are "hysterical" for those suf-
fering loss are inclined to judge con-
ditions generally by the situation in
their own districts
1t was pointed out that no reports
had been received of damage to fruit
crops in New England, New York,
Michigan, the Great Lakes region, the
Pacific coast or the extreme south.

SULPHUR CLEARS

Apply Sulphur 40 Told When Your
Skin Breaks Out

Any breaking out of the skin on
face, neck, arms or body is overcome
quickest by applying Mentho-Sul-
phur. The pimples seem to dry
right up and go away, declares q
noted skin specialist.
Nothing has ever been found to
take the place of sulphur as pimple
remover. 1t is harmless and mex
pensive. Just ask any druggist for a
small jar of Mentho- Sulphur and use
it like cold cream.-Adv.

The insilage cutting has been one Of
the draw backs to people putting in
silos in the valley. This obstacle is
now removed as Mr.. Cotton will glad
ly take his cutter with him to any
farm in the community and do custom

Nels filled his silo with corr and
sunflowers. His silage cured perfect
ly and there is a reason. Nels took
the precaution to see that the insilage
was properly packed and the heavy
part or grain of the insilage was thor
oughly mixed with the light part or
leaves. Nels had one good man all
the time and two men part of the time
in the silo tramping it. Another
thing Nels did was to add water. He
had a one-half inch hose running from
the tank to the blower practically all
of the time, (note cut), this thorough
ly mixing the water with the insilage.

Nelson Cotton, living seven miles
west of Glasgow, was the first man
in the Milk River Valley in Valley
county to put up a real silo and carry
it thru to completion and fill it. Mr..
Cotton has a $50 ton double-wall
frame silo. The silo is built just right.
Mr.. Cotton put a four foot pit with a
twelve inch wall, extending the con-
crete wall two feet above the ground,
thus making a six foot concrete pit
or silo that his frame silo sets on.
The making of the pit is the cheapest
part of the storage Of the silo. It
is necessary to have a foundation and
to turn the foundation into a storage
place is the thing to do. Mr.. Cotton

Silage should be wet enough SO that
the mar in the silo would have to
wear rubber boots, and this was the
case at the Cotton ranch. Nels used
corr and ~sunflowers. We are anxious
to learn which Nels thinks is the best,
Nels states the only objection he has
is that the stock are so crazy about
the insilage that it is dangerous to
feed them. The stock will run over
a man to get a mouth full of the
silage.
Other silos in the county giving SIM
liar results are the Redfield brothers
who live seven miles southeast of Op-
helm. Their silo is a double-wall
frame. The Redfield brothers filled
