FILL ALL SILOS TO THEIR LIMIT Money, Time and Labor Can 80 Saved by Taking Advantage of 'Modern Methods. FARMERS SHOULD COMBINE Cstentlal That Corn Be Mature urd Past th Dough State Before Cut Make Use of Boya for Tramp ing and Packing. (from th TJnld Hints Department of Agriculture.) On account of the labor shortage, neighborhood co-operation In alio fill ing should be highly developed daring Hie current fall. All the silage crop ihould be saved without loss, while all kilo should bo filled to capacity. Five ot six or more farmer who own alios in one community should combine their working forces into a crew which ahnulil rotate from farm to farm a the corn becomes ripe enough, flucn an arrangement resulting iroini the Interchange of neighborhood farm ' labor Win minimise the expense oj housing the siluge crop. It Is essential that corn should nol be cut for ensllago until It la matur and through tho dough stage, as re peated demonstrations have shown conclusively tluit corn In this condi tion is nt the peak of nutrient value. The bugnboo about frosted corn being wliclly unauituble for ensilage is a fal lacy, a corn which ha been damaged with frost can be converted Into very good ensllnge If It Ih cut shortly after wards. In the case of badly frosted corn, however, there occur a consid erable loss of leaves. Watering th Chopped Feed. In case tho corn Is excessively drj and wilted at the time of alio filling v uter should be ran through a nihbei hose Into the cutting box and blowet during the filling process so that tht chopped feed may be wet thorough!) and rendered succulent for future feedT Ing. In extreme cases where It la Im possible to saturate tho corn com pletely In this manner, and where vj ter pressure I available, a second ho. la sometime carried over the top ol tho silo so that tho water falling oc a board Inclined ngalnst the able nl tht silo and moved at regular Interval serves efficiently to thoroughly molster the forage.

If It Is de sired to start the binder several hourt ahead of the ensilage cutter, this at tachment is not used, as then the corr may be dumped on the ground and from there loaded by hand. In view of the current high prlcei of grain, the specialists of the United States department of agriculture sug gest that, In many Instances, the eon may be profitably snnppM or husked end only the fodder converted Intc silage. By the practice of this sys tem the silo will still provide a wealth of cheap, succulent roughage, 8eallng la Neglected. - Sealing of the silo after the struc ture Is filled Is too often neglected There are a number of practical meth ods of topping off the silo so as to minimise waste nnd spoilage. A com roon practice Is to level the silage and then to tramp over the top thoroughly for 20 or SO minutes every day for. a week, In order to eliminate air tick ets near the top of the alio and to thoroughly compact the mass of feed.

WOOL WILL LONQ BE SCARCE Life of a Pound of Valuable Product Ha Bten Shortened on Account of th War. "Even with peace It Is doubtful If our clothes will return to normal, In price or otherwise, until long after the war," write Douglus Jaspersen In Everybody'. "The necessity of re habilitating the million of men In khaki is already a problem. This vast army to be reclothed will be a heavy drain upon the world'a already e bauated wool and shoddy market!. Then, too, the ueed of depleted Ger many for wool and shoddy should fur ther tend to Increase the shortage all ever the world. "Ever since the beginning of the war shoddy hus boon disappearing from our midst at an alarming rate, while the production of wool bns been en tirely Inadequate to the world's needs. "In norinul time the life of a pound of wool in Its various Incarnation ex tends over a period of yours. "Iiut wur, the most wasteful of all businesses, ha a changed the old order . . U shoddy that went to muke up that KliuKl coat for some soldier are burled, with U wearer, somewhere 'over there' and wllLnever return to do duty for us again. And so, In a great many cases, the life of a pound of wool hn been luddenly reduced from some where around six years to us many months. Wool alone can never clothe the world. It has been shoddy that kept the world's clothing bill down for many a year, and until the shoddy sup ply I normal again we ran all expect to have more or less trouble with our clothe." IN SPANISH HALL OF FAME Th Nam of Etpartero, Duke of Vlt- toria, Ha Been Properly Ac corded High Position. Fifty years no Queen Isabelln was dethroned, and Spain threw off the yoke of the Itourbons and Inaugurated a new order of things, looking nt least to the establishment of a coiiKtitutlonnl government, if not a government of the people. Espnrtero. duke of Vlttorln, waa placed at the bead of the stute. He had occupied that position on two for mer occasions, lie aided in securing the succession of Isabella, and success fully led her armies In putting down the CarllstB. In the Insurrection of 18-40, caused by the luw suppressing the freedom of sjieech In the town coun cil, Espnrtero became head of the government and was confirmed In that position by the Cortes, and was ap pointed regent during the minority of the queen, lie was doused In 1843 and had to fly to London for safety. In 1847 be was recalled to Spain and by the revolution of 1854, which drove the Queen Mother ChrlHtlnla and Nor Vaes from the country, he was again placed at the bead of the government, position which he resigned In 1850. Espnrtero was 'born. In 1702. He wnsi the son of a wheelwright, commenced life aa a common soldier In the Span ish army and gained his honors and titles by his own ability as a soldier and statesman. . White Light Best. White light seems to be the most eemfortnble for the eye. In tests of the effects of various lllumlnnnts 0. E. Ferree and J. Rand, aa described to the American Illuminating society, have used kerosene lamps and vnrlons Incandescent lampa and It appears from the results that the color ot the light has a marked effect on eye fatigue. With the white light of the tungsten lamp there was the least loss to the worker from need of resting the eyes. The fatigue was somewhat greater with the yellow light of the carbon lamp or kerosene lamp, and greatest of all with the tungsten lamp having a blue bulb. Some Benefit From Poison Gas. Chemists are planning to use inven tions devised to protect soldiers from the poison gus of the Huns for the pro . tectlon of industrial workers in mines ' and factories. The absorbents used in gas masks may also serve as safe guards from foul gases which are generated In certain industrial process es. Likewise, some of the poison gasps that American chemists have devised j In reprisal against German deviltry, It Is believed, can be used In the exter mination of vermin and also for the dis infection of fruit orchards from Insects and other blights, such as San Jose Male. .. ..... .... .... ..... depopulation Problem.

ISTHMUS PROUD OF VAR RECORD Canal Met Every Demand That Wat Made Upon It QUICK PASSAGE FOR KITRATE Machinery Had Hardly Been More Than Tested When It Was Called Upon to Do Yeoman Service for th Cause Witnessed Fewer Unpleas ant Incident Than Any Place Un der American Flag. The Panama' canal force la proud of the way the big ditch behaved dur ing the war. It was completed barely in time to play its part la affording quick passage to the nitrate ships carrying their Indispensable cargoes from Chill to the United States and Europe, and Its machinery bad hard ly been more than tested before It was called upon to do yeoman service for the cause. The departure of General Goet&alf also put a new governor at the head of the administration In thl critical period, but Governor Harding's hand t the helm has been no less success ful than was that of his predecessor In making the canal. The period of the war has witnessed fewer Inci dents here of an unpleasant character than any other place under the Amer ican flag. There have been no slides from the sides of the "cut" no strike or other labor troubles; no sabotage; no Interruption to traffic no short age of supplies; no lack of adequate provision In arranging for all the needs of the Zone. Enemy Plot Frustrated. Germans were promptly Interned and all suspicious characters deport ed. Precautious against spies were so thorough that the Impossibility of getting by the Zone police has been a subject of comment on all sides. Tons of German propaganda were in tercepted and all sorts of tentative plots nipped In the bud. A revolu tionary movement against Costa Rica, engineered by political exiles here, was promptly squelched. A volunteer news service was or ganized by canal employees and counter-campaign against German propaganda was carried on all over Latin-America, which has bad good results In the attitude ot many ot the governments In South and Cen tral America. More than 10 per cent of the canal employeea went to the war. Those remaining worked overtime In every department The Zonltes gave $90,000 a year to the Red Cross; subscribed nearly $5,000,000 In aU to the Liberty loans and never once complained about high prices or grumbled over conditions Imposed by the war. None of them showed alarm over the sub marine menace. ' Women Do Their Share.' The women knitted and sewed for the Red Cross, and entertained tho British wounded on their way to Aus tralia and New Zealand with a hospi tality which has been commented upon In the newspapers of those coun tries and officially recognized by their governments. The health department has been notubly efficient The malarial rate has been lower than at any time since the American occupation. The Influ enza epidemic was so handled as to be practically negligible. The opium and cocaine trade was broken up, and the soldiers and sailors protected from other forms of dangerous vice. Tens ot thousands ot acres ot Jhnd In the cone were cleared and planted or .turned Into pasture and stocked with cattle against any possible block ade. The fishing business was devel oped with the same end In view. Altogether the little American col ony on the Isthmus feel that they have kept their work going at a high pitch of efficiency, and the big dem onstrations held on the victory day were full of evidences of their loyal ty and enthusiasm In the parades, the speechmaking and the absence ot any jarring note. - WOMEN TO BE ADMITTED Railway Y.
