Avoid Silo Gases,

Turn the machine blower on and leave
1t on for at least two minutes before
any one is permitted to enter . partly
filed silo. Unless this rule 10 followed,
the result is likely to be dead men, says
the Department of Agriculture. An.
uually fatalities occur among farmers
and their helpers as result of the work
men entering half-filled silos after the
deadly carbon monoxide gases have had
a chance to accumulate directly above
the freshly ensiled corn. A few days
ago two Illinois farmers were killed,
another was rendered seriously sick by
silo gases which are almost as danger
Gus as the poisonous mustard gases used
during the recent war. The preventive
measures are simple and efficient and
where they are followed, there 10 no
danger. No workman should ever enter
a partly filled silo after the ensiled corn
has had an opportunity to develop
poisonous carbon monoxide gases over
night, until the machine blower hai
been started. The fresh air dilutes ano
scatters the obnoxious gases to the ex
tent that they are rendered harmless
Another precaution which should ~
practiced religiously Is not to wedge tn!
silo doors into place until they are need
ed to prevent the waste Of the ensilet

Rural vs.. Urban Population.


The Census Bureau at Washington has
sent out some interesting statistics In
regard to age In Maine, and compared
rural with urban populations. One bul.
letin says:
The urban population as compared
with the rural shows some rather strik-
ing differences in age, the percentage 20
to A years OF age being 3S 6 for the
urban population as compared with 1872
for the rural, while the percen tage under
15 years OF age is 20 8 10 the urban popu-
lation as against 20 4 In the rural.
These differences may indicate larger
families of children 10 the country than
in the city, but are more probably due
to foreign immigration to cities augment
ed by immigration of natives from the
country. The country children az they
grow up have . tendency to flock to the
cities thereby increasing the active adult
population OF the cities ct the expense
of the country districts.
Further statistics say 28 2 per cent, or
over one. fourth, of the people of the
State of Maine are either infants or chill
dren under 15 years of age; 8.3 per cent
are young people 15 to 10 years old; 1878
per cent, over one-third, are men and
women in the prime of life. being from
20 to A years old; while 281 per cent,
being 45 years Of age and over, are we'll
along In middle life If they have not
reached old age.
Just about tbree-fifths of the popula.
tion, 61.9 per cent, are old enough to
vote. beinp 21 or over. and In this class
the men outnumber the women In the
ratio of 103 to 100. The males of mill.
tary or fighting age, 1s to A, constitute
3S.2 per cent Of the male population and
10 8 per cent of the total population.

SunfIowers Growing Near Jefferson.

The travellers between Stickney's
Corner in the town OF Washington and
North Village in Jefferson, this state,
are impressed by the sight of huge
field of sunflowers at the Jefferson Farm
Compapy's premises. There are "a
acres of them. The entire Meservey
farm and part of the Andrews farm are
covered with the plants. The sunflow-
ers are sown four in hill and bill
every square yard. A little figuring
shows that there must be considerably
over 5000, 900 plants and to the eye of
the person viewing them, they create a
very impressive sight. They stretch
away for more than quarter of mile
and appear like gold dinner plates. The
entire lot will be cut up for ensllage,
stalks and all.
The sunflowers make good ration
for the horses and cattle. Last year the
suuflowers were alternated with corn,
two rows of each and all was cut up and
made into ensilage together. The stock
picked out the sunfowers and left the
corn. Sunflower stalks would appear at
first glance too dry and woody to please
COW but such is not the case. This
year the sunf1owers are planted without
the corn. The "a acres will yield zoo
tons of fodder. There is an idea thai
sunflowers exhaust the soil, but where
the Jefferson Farm Co. had sunfowert
last year there is large crop OF hay thit
