u. s. BUREAU CALLS
ATTENTION TO THE
DANGER OF SIL0 GAS

According to the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture the
poisonous gases formed in 4
silo overnight while the silO
is in process of being filled is
deadly to persons. Freshly cut
silage in the partially filled
silo is the cause. When there
is no air circulation the gases
remain in considerable vol
ume; immediate death may
result from entering such a
silO.
To avert this danger, says
the department, run the ensil-
age cutter for a few minutes
before anyone enters the silO.
Air currents stirred up by the
blower will either dilute the
gases or drive them from the
silO.

that item of maintenance which is
small in the new house but mounts
to a higher figure in the house that
has been in use a few years and
must be reckoned with.
To determine the proper amount
to allow for the maintenance of the
home, that is repairs, requirements,
ETC., is more matter of personal
opinion than anything else. Experts
vary in their calculations, some say
ing that it should be 1 per cent of
the cost in the case of a new house
with a proportionate increase as the
house begins to show signs of wear

Former State Senator Louis A.

chased the $4,000 residence. near
Camden, built by the late DR.. Car

to accept the nomination as State

Senator Drexler is well known
throughout Delaware, being con-

Gil. He would succeed Senator
Wharton of near Dover.
If he accepts the nomination it is
more likely that the representative
in the legislature would come from
the lower end of the district, partic-

Grid Games at Yale Pay for All
 Other Sports Costs

New Haven. Oct. 3 (UP)-Yale did more than a million dollars worth of football business in the 1929 season, the revenue from the game paying for the operation of the university's departments of sports. according to the financial report of the Yale Athletic associa- tion, made public today by H. F. Woodcock, general manager.
 Football revenues totaled $1,164,- 964.3S, which, deducting disburse- ments of s52S,730.9o, gave net ln- come of s636,233.44. Gross revenues from all sports was $1,270,20411. out of which s414,426.23 was paid to visiting teams, making a gross income of sS55,777.SS. which pro- vided an excess of s2S7,139.07. This sum entirely liquidated cost of con- struction of the golf course and wrote accounts off totalling s2S5, 059.51, leaving a surplus for the year of s2,079.51.

CARNATI0N SENT
 SLAYER'S MOTHER
N0rthCott COfln Bud Goes to
 Prisoner Today

San Quentin Prison, Calif., Oct. 3 (UP)-A white carnation from the grave of Gordon Stewart Northcott, executed slayer of boys, was taken today by Larry Newgent, evangelist, to Northcotts mother, serving a life sentence in prison.
 Northcott's last request-"Please. I want white roses on my coffin"- made to his father just a few hours before he was hanged yesterday, was, not granted. No white roses could be found in Richmond, the nearest town, so carnations were substituted.
 Newgent, who took the flower to Mrs. Northcutt, convicted with her son, was the slayer's friend and ad- wiser while Northcott was in prison and up to the minute of his execu- , ton.
 Northcott's father. Cyrus, New gent and two morticians were the only mourners at the slayer's funeral. Newgent officiated.
 The father returned today to his carpentering business at Riverside. Authorities said they did not expect to hold him because of "confes- sion" in which he was involved by his son shortly before Gordon died.

VIENNA ANXIOUS
 OVER POLITICS
Internal Strife Feared-Claim
 Rights Violated

Vienna, Oct. 8 P>-Anxiety was manifested today in political circles over latest developments in internal affairs.
 The new cabinet was charged be- fore the bar of parliament with a breach of the constitution by its first governmental act. The new cabinet, on being formed, immedi- ately dissolved parliament without first introducing itself to the house in the knowledge that a vote of non confidence was awaiting it which would compel it to immedi- ately resign. This was in con- travention, the charge said, of the clear intentions of the Austrian con- stitution.
 The cabinet permitted yesterday the appointment of Dr. Strafella as director general of the state rail- ways. notwithstanding that Dr.. Johann Schober resigned the chan Cellorship rather than have Straf- ella, fascist. in that position, after Justice Powalatz had declared in open court that Dr. Strafella' s private business transactions were "unclean and improper"

WILL GET
 REST FOR DEATH
Slaughter to Be Postponed Week to Fatten Cattle

New London, Oct. GP - West ern steers, travelling to eastern mat- kets, soon will be able to gain the respite of a week or so from the slaughter house, recover from the effects of their journey and grow plump on bit of Texas transplant ed in Connecticut.
 w. E. Dampier, of Yonkers, N. Y, associated in the management of a large Texas cattle raising ranch, has purchased a tract of more than 300 acres near the Groton subma- rine base for the purpose. A 400 foot pier and side tracks have been constructed on the property to aid in handling the steers.
 The project was lauched after MT. Dampier had consulted with cattle authorities at the Connecticut Agri- cultural College on the advisability of sub-ranches in the east to re- habilitate western cattle for slaugh- ter. Steers shipped by rail from the west and southwest, a survey show ed, lost as much as 150 pounds each on the trip, resulting in subsequent loss of many thousands of dollars to the producers.
 Experiments conducted at the Connecticut Agricultural College with one car load of steers over a period of 120 days were reported to have shown an average gain per steer of 3.77 pounds a day.
 P. Leroy Harwood, treasurer of the Mariners Savings bank, and a trustee of the Connecticut Agricul- tural College, predicted the linking of Connecticut with the west in the cattle business would be a great boon commercially to the state.
