My seven years of experience hav proved to me the great vain of the silo, says W. B. Barney of Iowa. Round silos ore best Build them on a hill De cide the barn. If possible, to decrease labor la handling ensilage. Use noth ing but the best of materiaL They may be lathed and plastered at any time. If desired. The Important point tn filling Is to tread the ensilage well while filling. Use twenty-Ore palls of water each noon, the same amount at night, and, when finished, poor on six or eight barrels In addition- About twelve tons of silage per acre can be raised under ordinary ciroa instances. I usually raise 125 acres of com, and for my silo cut that whjcb Is not apt to mature in time to avoid injury from frost I have tried the various varie ties of corn designed especially for en- j silage, but have not had as good suc cess as with the ordinary field varieties. Were' I planting my entire acreage for ensilage purposes t would make no change in seed or method of planting or cultivation, except to drop more ker nels In each hill. There is a difference in the digestive capacity and requirements of cattle, but for the ordinary cow forty pounds of ensilage, ten pounds of clover and timothy hay and -four pounds of oats and bran would constitute a good ra tion, well balanced, for one day's feed. Ordinarily I cut corn for ensilage about a week before it Is ready to shock. Some of my com was frosted this year, but It made good ensilage. I used more water than usual on It and this takes the place of the juices which are want ing. I would do the same thing when putting up drier corn. There has been a shrinkage of late In the creameries in Iowa. Had the dairymen used silos these 200 creamer ies could have been kept open.

Wntcr ShrcTrs. A pretty little animal, writes a corre rpondent, occasionally to be noticed nt tLe edge of a Btream or pond Is the wa ter shrew. The ways of these creatures are most fascinating. I have seen them quietly emerge from the grass, run down the side of thobailU Into and along the bottom of the stream. While under tho water their movements aro very rapid. They scrape away on tho bottom with their feet, thrusting their Souk- snouts into the nwl and under i: n.-s J leaves i'l s :- h lis- 1 em'whith tluv ft-f'1 '! ti roL.re a little wuy up the Imnk for a moment or tvo to take breath and hurry back to their work once more. I have never seen water shrews dive. They simply run In and out of the stream, as If air and water were both alike to them, and they were equally at homo In cither cl ement. When under tho water, they look as If they were covered with mi nute silver pearls owing to tho particles of air adhering to their furry bodies. Land and water shrews are not of the mouse tribe. They have the sharpest and most delicately beautiful teeth im aginable and live entirely on insect food. Loudon Opinion. Line is not better from us.
