It Costs You More
to rot buildings than it
does to let paint save them
CHECK the costs. Compare
the prices of lumber and
paint They will show you how
extravagant it is to allow build
ings to depreciate for lack of
paint
And buildings do depreciate
rapidly unless they are painted
when they need to be. Paint
saves the lumber. It protects
your investment
To enjoy the biggest sating In
painting, as the best paint. It
spreads more easily saves labor cost
It covers more surface per galloo than
"cheap" paint
It serves five or more years longer
than "cheap" paint
The best paint is most economical
because it is scientific in formula and
preparation. We have been making
best paints for 73 years.

TO GROW SUFFICIENT SILAGE
Experts Assert It It Batter to Care
fully Figure on ftiio to Fit
Herd of Cows.
(Prepared by ths United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The planting season li the time
when the dairy fanner should arrange
to see that he has crops enough to till
his silo. As a case In point. I Missis
aippi fanner failed to take this mntter
into consideration when he bought
silo of fiO tons' capacity, for ho fount
that he hnd corn and sorghum fo
only 20 tons of sllatrp; and since, more
over, he hod only 8 cows, he dectdet
he had made a mistake, and tried tt
sell his new silo instead of sating It
Bp. A field niuu fro.n the dairy divi
sion of the Cnitod States Depart iuenl
of Agriculture however, persuaded
hint to keep ll until the next year, and
to put tip a small stave silo for imme
diate use. He did so. and found It
such a help In, feeding his cows cheap
ly that he bought more land and ie
solved to enlarge his herd to 50 cows,
and thus make good use of his larger
alio.
Both the height and the diameter
of the silo must be considered. The
proper diameter of the silo depends
npon the quantity of silage to be fed
dally; and this quantity will Tary
with the Blue of the herd. The silage
should be fed out fast enough to re
move it from the top of the silo at the
rate of ltt to 3 Inches a day, depend
ing upon climatic conditions. The
warmer the weather the more silage
must be removed from the surface
dally In order to prevent spoiling. For
the winter feed.ng season It H Bafer
to figure upon removing 2 inches dally
than any smaller amount.
A common error Id building Is to
make the diameter too large for the
else of the herd. The weight of a
cubic foot of silage varies according
to I he pressure to which It Is sub
jected, hut In a silo 30 feet high the
weight per cubic foot averages about
40 pounds. So, by knowing the quan
tity f silage to be fed dally, It Is pos
sible to estimate what the diameter
of the silo should be to permit the
removal of a certnln neither of Inches
each day. The table below shows the
jin-i'er diameter of the silo, on a basis
of 40 pounds of stlaee iier cubic foot,

A 900-pound cow ordinarily con

a 1, 310-pound one about 40 pounds.
Veurlihgs eat about one-half as much
as mature animals; fattening cattle,
25 to '6a pounds for each 1,000 pounds

It happens, sometimes, that a alio
Is not wholly tilled. bcau&e there la
not enough com planted for silage
and there are oot enough of other
crops wake np the deficiency, The
amount of silage that may be ob
tained from an acre of corn 'varleVl
from 4 to Zt) tons. A fair allowance
on average land ts 8 tons per acre.
Hence for a 60-ton stle it might be
well to plant 8 or 10 acres of corn
It Is by all means heat to lay out
bind enough in silage crops to nri the
silo to the very top; and If there I
any doubt about bow much will be
needed, to allow a margin of safety,
remembering that the season may cut
down the yield of this as well as ol
other crops, On the other hand, 11

MARK TWAIN AND WATTERSON
Lifelong Friendship ttween Two et
the Brainiest Men the United
States Has Produced.
The late Henry Watterson was a
long-time friend of Mark Twain, as of
early every other prominent Ameri
can literary worker of hla day, and
related many nnecdotea that resulted
from this friendship. Murk Twain's
mind turned ever to the droll.
"Once in London I was Ihlng with
my family at 103 Mount street. Be
tween 103 and 102 there was the
parochial workhouse, quite a long and
Imposing edijice," . Mr. Wntterson re
lates In hla autobiography. "One eve
ning, upon coming in from an outing.
I found a letter he had wrltteu on
the sitting room table. He had left
It with his card. He spoke of the
shock he hnd received upon finding
that next to 103 presumably UKl
wtis tne. workhouse. He had lovod me,
but had alwnvs ft-uml I would end by
disgracing the family being han'd
or something but the 'work'ua,' that
wa beyond him; he hnd not thought
it would come to that. And so w
through pages of horseplay; his re
lief on ascertaining the truth and
learning his mistake, his regret at
not finding me at home, closing with
a dinner Invitation.
''It was at (leneva. Switzerland, that
I received a long, overflowing letter,
full if flamboyant oddities, written
from London. Two or three hours
later came a telegram. "Hum letter.
Blot It from your memory, Susie Is
dead."
SCHEME WORKED OUT WELL
How Hast Mads Pretty Sure That
Unwelcome Queat Would Not
Attend Engagement Party,
The problem was how to Invite a
certain young woman to the engage
ment party and still be certain that
he would decline to attend. She
was known to be a killjoy, but If
she were not Invited she would talk
ef It
, About ttvo weeks 'prior to the
party the couple managed to bring
together the young woman and
masculine acquaintance of theirs.
After the proper Introduction the In
nocent young man and the young wo
man were left alone.
The following week the young man
received two theater tickets from his
acquaintance who was to be engaged,
wbiPsttld be would not be able to use
them himself. Three days later the
young woman received an Invitation
to the party.
; "He's a alee fellow," ran part of
the letter In answer to the engage
ment party Invitation, "and he has
asked me to accompany him to the
theater oo the ,very evening of your
party. I would like to come to your
party, but I gave him my promise
before I received your Invitation, so
you see how It Is: I do hope you
will excuse me." New York 8un.
