Values of Corn Silage
Depend on Conditions

The usual method of estimating the
value of corn sllage, says Hoards
Dairyman, Is to compare 1t with hay
on the basis that one ton OF hay is
equal In feeding value to three tons
of silage. In other words, II hay IN
the NOW Is worth SIS ton. then silage
In the silo would be worth SO a ton.
Another method Of estimate ia to use
a comparison that a ton of corn silage
Is equal In feeding value to 3 bushels
of eern-and- aoa pounds of hay. With
corn at S. cents and hay at $50
ton. this would indicate value OF
S5.75 ton for corn silage. 1t is to
be remembered that this comparison
Is based upon the silage In the silo
and the hay and corn In the barn and
ready for feeding. II the silage must
be hauled away from the farm. 1t Is
possible that some discount should be
allowed for the cost of the hauling.
There Is no accurate method of mr.
irving ut the value of silage, because
II Is not a product that's bought and
sold on the market. The estimates
given above are only rough approx
nation and might need some amend.
ment to meet local conditions There
Is also the problem involved as to the
quality OF the hay and the quality OF
the silage that are used In the COM
parlson. Consideration should be CIV
en- to this when arriving at an agree
ment as to the price to be paid.

OUR GLASSES
BY DOUGLAS MALLOcH

nH. THE glasses we wear we con-
~ slider with care,
Yes, the glasses we wear on our
eyes,
For we measure and test and decide
on the best
In way that Is cautious and wise
But the rest
OF our glasses we never surmise.
Yet we look all the day all at life all
the way
Through the glasses we wear on the
mind.
Some with glasses of hate make the
little hurts great;
Thereyare some SO exceedingly blind
Here of late
That they seem to see only behind.
But the best sort of glass shows each
blossom you pass,
Sees the past, and little ahead,
Makes the mean rather small, makes
the kind rather TALL
Makes the highway more easy to
trend
After all
Makes the world Just as good as
God said.

the break Of day Then when they
poked their noses out OF their houses
Jack Frost syly pinched them ever
SO gently by way OF introducing him

Now Johnny Chuck was, as you
know. very fat. very fat indeed. For
weeks he had been eating all that he
could. He had been stutting himself
just to make fat so that he might sleep
through the long winter In comfort.
OF late he had been getting very
sleepy. Fat people usually are sleepy.
So Johnny Chuck had been going to
bed much earlier than he did In sthe
summer and finding 1t harder to geU
up early In the morning. On this par
ticufar morning somehow he didn't
want to get up at ALL He stretched
and yaWned and tried to make up his
mind that he was fat enough.
But be remembered what Sammy
Jay had told him of how Jerry Musk
rat and Paddy the Beaver were pre-
pairing for long hard winter and OF
how old Mother Nature had given Red

He yawned and stretched again,

doorway. He was still blinking as no

Now Jack Frost had fingered just as

Frost knew that III was not yet strong

at least go out and see how things

IS LIMNED
FOR ACCIDENT
INSURANCE
By FRANK F. LOOMS

The Importance of accident
insurance is never fully realized
until disability from an accident
cuts off the income. A man
with family dependent upon
his earnings cannot afford to be
without this insurance protection.
Accident insurance is not ex-
penSiVe. For a cost of only
$50 a year, a man can purchase
policy which pays $1,000 for
loss of life, limbs or sight; $4,000
for loss of hand or foot; $1,625
for loss of sight of one eye;
$l,250 for loss Of thumb and
index finger.
SIS Weekly For Time Lost
For loss of time $25 a week
is paid during the period Of
total disability; $40 a week is
paid for partial disability up
to 26 weeks, or in lieu of the
weekly indemnity, the insured
may take indemnity in one sum,
If he so desires, for certain
fractures, dislocations and ampu-
tations in an amount ranging
from $25 to 1925.
Another important feature in
the contract provides for the pay
ment of all medical expenses in
connection with an injury up to
$500, which includes the actual
expenses of ambulance, X-rayS,
operation, nurses, hospital and
doctors, and is paid in addition
to any other indemnity to which
the insured may be entitled.
This is q strictly modern fea-
ture, and in most cases will COM
pletely insure the high cost Of
medical expenses, leaving the
weekly indemnity to the insured
in addition.
Principal Sum $4,000
The contrast outlined is based
on a $4,000 principal sum, paid
for accidental death, and also for
loss of hands or feet or sight or
both eyes. In lieu Of this lump
sum, payable for loss of limbs or
sight. the insured may take $25
weekly indemnity for life. This
option is exceptionally valuable to
younger men.
The same contract may be pur-
chased providing larger weekly in
IDENTITIES at the same proportion
to cost.

RENTAL PARLEY
HERE TONIGHT

Charles J. Rush, executive
secretary of the Washington Real
Estate Board, predicts a record
attendance of members, outside
brokers and property owners at
the meeting tonight in the United
States Chamber of Commerce
auditorium, to discuss the rent
situation here.
Senators Capper and Copeland
are expected to attend, and tell
something of their conclusions as
a result of the rental hearings
before a Senate District subcom-
mittee.
Secretary Rush, in his call for
the meeting, said the board wants
to cooperate in improving rent
and housing conditions here, and
concluded:
"If you are a member Of the
real estate board, broker who
is not a member of the real
estate board, an owner having
rental property in the District
of Columbia or lender of
money on the security of real
estate in the District of Co

urged as a matter of civic
obligation and in the interest
of your own business to attend

YEAR Of MIXED
GAINS SEEN

A summary of leading authori.
ties on the business and invest
ment outlook shows that 1889 is
expected to be a year of irregular
improvement, with a good posi-
bility of a sharp rebound in bust
ness and the security markets, ac-
cording to Gage P. Wright, editor
OF the Business Economic Digest,
which publishes a weekly survey
OF current economic opinion.
Economists are practically
unanimous in the belief that the
bottom of the depression was
touched in the summer of 1892.
Those authorities who comment
on the banking situation say a
definite start will be made to-
ward establishing branch banking,
and the country will emerge
from the depression with a much
stronger set-up than in 1929.
Few authorities enthuSe over
the agriculture outlook. Most say
the presence of huge supplies
makes substantial advance in
farm prices and gross cash farm
income improbable. On the other
hand. interest and taxes remain
at the old level, leaving very little
for the farmer.
1t is generally agreed that en-
ployment conditions will improve
in 1888. Wages are not exoected
to rise materially until business re-
covery is fairly we'll advanced.

If you've been attracted by the
beautiful bird whistling on several
of the Show Boat programs lately,
YOU may be interested to know it's
the work of a specialist named
Robert MacGimsey, who first
sprang into prominence five years
ago when he did some bird
whistling on Gene Austen's we'll
known recording of my Blue
Heaven" He was introduced to
NB.C. by Billy Jones and Ernie
Hare, who heard him in a record
ing studio, and he has been get
ting the call from that chain ever
since.
So far as MacGimsey knows,
he's the only one in his line; at
least, he's the only one who has
made such a speciality of it. But
even at that, bird whistling is to
him a sideline to harmony whis-
tling, which he claims to have
popularized.
Offhand, he recalls 16 birds
whose whistling he can initiate
the mocking bird, cardinal red
bird, house wren, red-wing black
bird, bobolink, marsh birds, ring
dove, goldfinch, bluejay, whip
poor-Will, mourning dove, meadow
lark, white-throated sparrow, hoot
owl, bob-white, and oriole. He
could learn more, he says, If he
could travel more and study the
birds of different sections Of the
country.
Listen to the Mocking Bird" is
the song which results in more
calls to NB.C. for accompaniment
than any other.
Despite such extreme Specializa-
ton, MacGimSey is talented in
other lines. He's just set to music
