Bulletin 19O-Corn Silage in a Dairy
Ration-W. E. Carroll.
In this bulletin is given a brief
summary of the results of two years
experimental work on the value of
corn silage in the ration of milking
COWS. The method of attacking the
problem was such as to make direct
comparison between alfalfa hay and
corn silage. Thus the proportion OF
grain consumed was the same thru
out the test. 1t was fed in proper
ton to the amount of butter fat
given. The smaller COWS received
approximately rs pounds of corn
silage, while the larger COWS were
given 80 pounds. In addition to the
grain and silage the cows were given
all the alfalfa hay they would eat
fairly clean. These results indicate
that from 2.5 to 20 tons of corn
silage were required to replace one
ton of alfalfa hay under the condi-
lions OF the test. Anyone contem-
plating the erection of silo or de-
string to purchase silage should con-
slider at least approximately the re-
lative values of alfalfa hay and corn
silage.

A SANE REIMBURSEMENT
ON BUSINESS LINES

Much has been ignorantly SAID
!, about evident deflation OF FARMING.
When the war collapsed so abrupt
ly. every industry had to be restored
to a peace basis; and except for inc
bloodshed, the war lts9tt was less OF
. calamity than the readjustment,
farm valuations up 10 SEQ an acre
for plain corn land, based on the
continuation of the war and war
profits. would have to fall along
with every other speculative vaiu-
alton.
| It is said that farm valuations were
debated $1S,000,O00,OOO. If So
they were speculative and not nor
NAL. But every other kind OF valu-
alton was also Debated. This hap
pened all through the business world.
1t was not possible for the COVER
ment to keep prices up to the war
level. The United States produces
more than it consumes; this surplus
must be sold abroad, if at all. Dis
organized Europe could not buy and
pay; the government bought nothing
after the army disbanded. Without
market, prices of farm products
had to tumble in our country and all
over the world
Could or should the government
have bolstered the $4,000, 100000
speculative valuation of the farms,
industries or products? Could iii
tax the farmer for his share of all
the other business losses caused by
the collapse of Debated values fol-
lowing the war? The whole thing
is grotosque, impossible.
But the farmer really got the best
of the reorganization, in a tariff
that protected everything he raised
and brought him tariff-free every
thing he needed to run his farm. No
other industry got as much consider
alton in the readjustment. All he
needed was a market for his surplus.
1t is here now, not political
elixir, not a soap-box cure-all, but |
the opening of the European markets
through the Dawes-Young repara-
lions agreement. With larger crop /
in most of the farm staples than in
1928, the American farmer expects
to get 81, 100000 more for his
crop instead of less as would be the
case if he depended on local markets
only Business sanity has settled the
question of markets and prices;
political buncombe couldn't have
done it in a thousand years.

Because of American private rail.

receive $3.50 per ton. The rates on

Constitution of>the United States, to
found which our forebears fought
and died.
There is no more pitiful political
spectacle today, and none more sig
nficant. of the danger of the times,
than to see politicians cringing be-
fore the whip of a few blufting labor
leaders. undertaking to play politics
in the name of patriotic men whose
convictions on law enforcement and
the Constitution they do not control,
and who resent the idea that anyone
should believe that they would let
their honest opinions on elemental
things be used as a political asset.
What preteXt, except personal
political advantage. have any labor
leaders in attempting to bring the
question of the open shop into
politics? The Supreme Court of the
United States has held that the right
of employees in a body to bargain
with their employers for the closed
shop is one of the inalienable
rights of the individual under
our constitution. If political
party should place an open shop
plank in their platform, with view
to its crystallization into law, 1t
would be striking at the Constitu-
ton just as much as the lawleSs
labor leader who, in the interest of
the closed shop, would order an
American citizen assaulted as he
went peacefully 10 his work. Cues
tions like that of the open shop will
always be at issue among good citi-
zens. but these differences are not
political. They are economic and
must he adjusted between employer
and employee-not by political
parties.

Iiceman Malcolm O'Brien, the
Dawes party came into view on
State street shortly after l. o'clock.
The cars containing the distinguish
ed visitor and his companions stop
ped at the State street entrance to
the Blaine mansion and here Govr-
nor Baxter and u. s. Senator Hale
greeted the arrivals. Gen. Dawes
made the trip from Brunswick in the
big sedan of Hon. Guy p. Gannett
of Augusta. In his party were:
Mr.. Gannett, Hon. Harold NJ.
Sewall of Bath, member of the Re-
publican National committee for
Maine; Walter A. Wilson of West
brook, Conn: John Moran of Pine
Orchard, Conn: Charles i. Brook
err of Ansonia. Conn, three old-time
friends; George A. Paddock of Chi
cago, assistant personal manager;
Francis j. Kilkenny of Evanston,
ILL.,, personal manager, and Charles
Vogel of Chicago, stenographer to
Gen. Dawes.
After the party had had an oppor-
tunity to wash up%and after photo
graphs had been taken, an informal
dinner was served at which there
were present: Governor Baxter.
General Dawes, senator Hale and
Messrs. Wilson. Moran, BROKER.
Paddock. Kilkenny and Vogel. This
dinner was really a last-minute af-
fair, for it had been expected that
besides General Dawes only Mr..
Wilson would be with him.
In addition TO those in his party
already named. half a dozen New
York and Chicago newspaper men
are accompanying General Dawes.
The vice presidential candidate
remained at the Blaine mansion I'M
til his departure for Island park. On
arriving there. he was given the
heartiest kind of greeting. As
soon as the political rally had been
concluded, he returned with Cover.

Ch, huh. the politicians.
Island Park as a repository for the
wise and the politically
near-wise simply optdid itself. or
course it was a Republican gathering
that featured the day, but there we're
Democrats on hand, too, not afraid TO
share in Republican hospitality or
ashamed to say that they were present
IN listen 10 the speech OF General
Dawes.
But the great majority of the crowd
was Republican. Present members OF
State. district, county and town COM
mittees were out in force. Office hold
ers and past Office holders were there
Aspirants for ONCE were prominent.
There were, too. little cnildreh who'
when they reach the grandparent age
themselves. will be able to tell their
offspring that On certain day in
certain year they heard the great Gen.
eral Dawes speak.
While some may disagree as to the
actual number of people who were IN
attendance at this formal opening OF
the Republican state campaign, no one
will deny that il was the biggest gath
ering politically Island Park or the
State of Maine has known In recent
years. At Railroad Square In, Portland
in 1895 probably throng as large
heard William Jennings Bryan when ne
first ran for president Again in the
same place in 1a09 President Roosevelt
spoke to an immense gathering. In
1912 Roosevelt again spoke in Portland
at the Auditorium. Ten thousand poo
pie didn't hear him. but when he went
from the home of the then Col. Hale 10
the Auditorium the throng that lined
the sidewalks in toto constituted the
greatest gathering that has ever turn
ed out to see a candidate for once
So, as anyone can see with haIt IN
eve. this meeting at Island Park Sat
urday was whopper. That 10000 peo-
pIe were there is generally admitted.
Some saw more: others say less. There
were more women present than ever
be fore attended an Island Park meet
ing.
Not the least interesting feature Of
the affair was the immense number of
automobiles that were parked in the
Wyman field opposite the entrance 10
the park and along the roadside Tor
rods and rods. Conservative figures
place this number at $500. Under tho
direction of members Of the State
highway police, the traffic was well
handled and parking space was found
for all. This very fleet Of motor cars
proved better than anything else the
interest in the gathering. 1t showed

wage as compared with the Europ-
can wage.
THE Fordney- McCumfJer Tariff
Act raised tariff rates because it
was absolutely necessary for the
protection of American labor and in
dustry. The degradation of the Ger
man mark had reduced German
wages SO low that for long intervals
they were below the actual cost Of
existence itself. and starvation, un-
der nourishment. and misery were
the lot OF the laboring man in Ger
many. Manufactured products for
export to America from Germany
were produced at this low labor cost
to be sold in competition with goods
made with American labor.
Had. it not been for the F'ordney-
NcCumber Act, the German in
dustrialists would have enriched
themselves at the expense of Amer
lean labor and industry at the
same time that they prospered at
the expense of German labor. l per-
sonally went into the laboring dis
tricts of the City of Berlin last
winter and ! know the depths of
suffering which existed at that time
Il talked to some of the represent
atives of German labor who had been
before our Expert Committee, which
was trying to find some way to help
the Allies and Germany to a Chris
tan peace and prosperity. In their
talks with me they referred to the
American tariff. not as depressing
them. but as showing that the great
American Republic recognized that
for all it's people to prosper. labor
must he protected in that fair return
from which alone national happiness
and progress is possible.
American labor knows that its
interests are subserved by the posi-
ton of the Republican Party on the
tariff. 1t knows that its welfare de-
ponds upon the protective tariff
policy sponsored by the Republican
Party, and that the reversal of that
policy, demanded by the Democratic
Party, means lower wages and a
lowered standard of living. 1t knows
that the success of LaFollette means
chaos, out of which can only come
lower wages and lower standards of
living for all our people.

have ever visited" he said after Gov
ernor Baxter had taken him through
the long corridors, to the Executive
offices and to the Hall OF Flags.
General Dawes paid silent tribute to
the flags and read with genuine In
tetest and pleasure the immortal
poem of Moses Owen on its bronze
tablet near the flag cases.
General Dawes, during his visit to
Augusta, proved himself to he Just
as original as advance reports said
he was. When he arrived at the EN-
ecutive Mansion, the world famous
pipe was not in view. Instead,
hunched down in one corner of the
back scat in the Gannett car with
an ordinary straw hat on his head,
there was little about the visitor 10
distinguish him from the rest OF the
party.
But right after the dinner at the
Governors table. the ever-present
pipe came into view and from then
on it was hardly absent from the
public gaze. General Dawes was
contentedIy putting it when he ar
rived at Island Park and continued
with it until the time came for nm
to speak. Then he knocked out the
ashes, tossed it TO one of his friends
and gave his address.
General Dawes is not big man
physically. OF about the average
height, rather spalc of frame ana

frail as President Coolidge. Eut Ii"

Large eyeglasses straddled his
nose during The reading of the
speech, but these were removed as
he made a particularly emphatic

As friends were about to get the
water, the speaker said:

continued with his extemporaneovs
remarks which are given In his
speech elsewhere.
