Silage Appetites of Cows Shown

A series of experimental feeding
tests, conducted by the United States
Department of Agriculture at its
Beltsville, Md, live stock farm, re-
vealed some interesting information
as to the effect of SLIDING upon the
palatability of various plants found
or farm or range.
During the last summer and fall
about $50 different plants and COM
binations of plants were packed in
barrels in the same manner that en-
silage is placed in a silo. The purpose
was to study the effect of the silo fe-'-
mentation upon the fiber and other
features of the plants. 1t was thought
possible that silage would overcome
some Objectionable qualities of certain
Plants, in addition to breakind down
the fiber of some which were too
woody for stock feed.
The various lots of silages were
taken to Beltsville to test their pala
liability as cattle feed. The tests were
not protracted enough to give final
conclusions, but a number of interest
il results were obtained. Both wi.t:
and tame sunfowers were eaten read

IF | Could Only
Belch Up That Gas
KnowI Would FeelBetter'

How often have you felt that
way How often have you wished
for something to give you genuine
and lasting relief for Gas?
Don't buy any ordinary dyspep-
STA tablet or temporary results. Go
to a first-class drug store, ask for
a bottle of genuine Baalnlann' 5
Gas-Tablets; take three tablets an
hour before meals and again three
, befre eating-then watch. Now
comes a surprise. No more gas, no
more smothered feeling. no difficult
breathing, and no bloat.
Remember Baalmann's Gas-Tab-
lets are not only for the relief, but
also for the prevention of Gas.
Most people with Gas suffer from
nervous Dyspepsia, not common
indigestion.
Baalmann's Gas-Tablets are sold
in the famous yellow package for
one dollar.

Tells Aldermanic Head to
90 as Far as He Likes

f. II. La Guardia, President of the
Board of Aldermen, in a letter yester-
day to Chairman George McAnenv of
the Transit Commission, asked for
absolute assurance" from the new
commission that, in the event the
courts upheld the validity of the law
creating the commission, it would NOT
enter into any agreement with the
traction companies modifying existing
contracts with the city to increase
fares The Aldermanic President de-
clered that if the commission had any
! such intention he would oppose the
! appropriation of any more money by
| the Board of Estimate for subway con-
struction.
Chairman McAneny promptly replied
to the La Guardia letter
"The Transit Commission naturally,
at this stage of its work" he said,

tion to the plan it is expected to pre-
pare and to present, at the proper
time, for public consideration. 1t

fore the Board of Estimate for the ap-
preparation of funds to cover uncom-

tenn. You are aware, of course, of the
! obligation that rests upon the Board
of Estimate to supply funds as they
are required, in order to avoid un-
| necessary delay in the completion of
! transit facilities that are badly needed.
cannot add to your own knowledge
of what your duty may be in this re-
i spect, and have, therefore, no sugges-
tion to advance with relation to the
course of action you shall take"
In his letter to Chairman McAneny
| the Aldermanic President said:
"If contracts involving hundreds Of
millions of dollars of city investment
are to be modified to permit an in
/ creased fare, do not believe that any
more city money should be appro-
/ priated There are several applica-
the extension of new lines and the
appropriation of city money for rapid

| in position now to stipulate with the
! Board of Estimate that in the event the
! law creating your commission is held
by the courts Of the State and nation
to be valid, and that this commission
has the powers the law purports to
j give it, the said commission will not
enter into any agreement or issue any
order or do anything which would
modify the existing contracts increas-
; ing the fare provided for in said con-
tracts, namely, five cents on the rapid
transit lines?
"If such positive and binding assur-
ance could be given, a way may be
found to appropriate money for con-
struction purposes under the aforesaid
contracts. Otherwise, you will under
stand, I feel it my duty to protect the

invest any more money where control
