HIS PAPER REPRESENTED FOR PQRE!GN - ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES The Silo One who travels through the Mid- dle West with an observing eye can scarcely fail to note the new archi- tectural feature in the rural land- scape furnished by the silo. This winter receptacle for green feed has not only changed the looks of many: a farmstead, but represents a real revolution in farming methods, says the Minneapolis Journal. The Or- ange Judd Farmer calls attention to the fact that the feeding of silage to cattle is beginning to affect not only the diary industry, where it is increasingly common, but the busi- ness of beet-raising as well. The farmer has discovered that the en- silage system of raising beef cattle is as effective as the old grain-feed- ing plan, and far more economical. As this discovery spreads we may expect the new factor to have a de- cidedly revivfying influence on the diminishing supply of beef. The il- lustration of what happens on an acre of corn land under the old and the new plans is illuminating. The acre will produce perhaps a ton of corn and eleven tons of stalks, blades and husks. The old plan was with great labor to garner the one ton and throw the eleven away. The silo makes it possible to save all the twelve tons. Wien this is consid- ered in connection with the fact that about seventy per cent of-our seven- ty five million acres of corn land is used to produce corn to be fed on ‘the farm, the tremendous economic importance of ensilage is obvious. The Farmer has been taking a trial census of silos, and finds that in the thirteen great cattle States of the ‘Mississippi Valley there are approxi- mately 130,000 silos, and that no less than 31,000 of these were built last year, the increase being rather in the beef-raising than the dairy coun- try. But Minnesota lags behind in this matter of silo-building, for if the Farmer is right there are but 2,414 in this State, including 516 built in 1913. The percentage of in- erease is high, but the total is still| small. The Minnesota farmer, wheth er he has dairy cattle or beef cattle, should get him a silo at the first op- portunity.

Why not get the state to buy it and turn it into a state park? The “forest” is well worthy of being dignified by such a process.—Grand Rapids Indepen- dent. —e— y The wisdom of appointing a super- visor for the ditch work is apparent to all and Judge Stanton is to be commended for taking this precau- tlon to see that we get honest value for the immense sums this and neighboring counties are expending for drainage. These ditches will be of incalculable value to us if the desired results are attained, which cannot be done if they are not built wisely and honestly, hence the need of the inspector, whose appointment will be commended by every taxpay- er of Koochiching county.—Interna- tional Falls Journal. FAIL TO SECURE PAYROLL Robbers Armed With Rifies Several Persons. Smithfleld, R. I, April 22—Five men armed with rifles held up and shot Willlam A. MacKie, president of the Centerdale Worsted company, and Robert W. Lester, secretary and pay- master, but failed to get the payroll of $1,200, which the mill men were carrying. In making their escape in a high powered automobile the bandits kept up a. running gun duel with Deputy Sheriff George Hill, who was shot through the shoulder. MacKie was shot through the breast. He was the most seriously wounded. Wound Now that Roman striped silks are 80 generally favored, for all purposes, nothing could be prettier to use for trimming the school girl's dark serge dress. These stripes come in all combinations, dull and subdued as well as vivid. In No. 8021 we have a simple, attractive little dress for gen- eral school wear, or for the street after heavy wraps have been dis- carded. The dress closes at the side front, has a set-in sleeve, which may be full length or cut off at the elbow, as pre- ferred, a flat sailor collar and a three- piece skirt, This dress is quite as appropriate for linen, or one of the heavier cottons, as it is for serge. The design may be copied for a girl of 16, with 434 yards of 36-inch material. The pattern is cut in 4 sizes: 14 to 18 years. This Is a Perfect Pattern. Be sure to give right size, passing the tape around the fullest part of the breast well up under the arms. It may be obtained by filling out the coupon and enclosing 15 cents in stamps or coin to the Pattern Depart- ment of this paper. Street and No. City and State. Pattern No. BE PRETTY! TURN GRAY HAIR DARK Look Young! Nobody Can Tell if You Use Grandmother’s Simply Recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound- ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streak- ed or gray; also ends dandruff, itch- ing scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make It at home, which is mussy and troublesome. |Nowadays, by asking at any drug store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Halr Remedy,” you will get a large bottle of this famous old recipe ror about 60 cents. Doa’t stay gray! Try it! No one |ean possibly tell that your darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and, evenly. You dampen a sponge jor soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, and after another ap- plication or two, your halir becomes beauurully dark thlck and glossy. IF BACKACHY OR KIDNEYS BOTHER Eat less meat and take a glass of Salts to flush out kidneys— Drink plenty water Uric acid in meat excites the kid- neys, they become overworked; get sluggish, ache, and feel like lumps of lead. The urine becomes cloudy; the bladder s irritated, and you may bé obliged to seek relief two .or three times during the night. When the kidneys clog you must help them flush off the body’s urinous waste or you’ll be a real sick person in the kidney region, you suffer from backache, sick headache,, dizziness, stomacha gets sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu matle twinges when the weather is bad. _ Eat less meat, drink lots of wa- ter; also get from any pharmacist four ounces of Jad Salts; take a ta- blespoonfull in a glass of water be- fore breakfast for a few days and your kidniys will then act fine. This famous salts is made fro the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com- bined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean clogged kid- neys and stimulate ‘them to normal actlvity, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending. bladder weakness. i .Jad Salts is expensive, cannot in- Jure; make a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink: which every- one should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active.
