Raleigh, March 22.4-The reason why silos are growing in popularity in North Carolina is because thqy furnish a feed for winter use that comes nearest to giving the same re sults as a good summer pasture. Sil age furnishes succulent food when pasture is not available, it makes possible a cheap feed ration and gives the grower greater value for his corn. These are some of the reasons advanced by E. R Raney, extension farrn^ engineer for tho Slate College and Department of Agriculture, for building a silo this summer. Mr. Raney states that the man who is feeding from 10 to 12 cows without using a silo is not {ceding as economically as he might. A cow will consume about 30 pounds of silage per day and under North Carolina conditions it is advisable to plan for at least two tons per cow which will carry her about four months. The size of the silo will depend on the number of cows to be fed, says Mr. Raney, and where a grower has less thau fifteen head, his silo should be about 10 feet in diameter; from 15 to 25 head, not over 12 feet in diameter and from 25 to 40 head, not over 14 feet in diameter. The ; most common types of silos used are concrete, wooden stave, modified Wisconsin, and wooden hoop. Tarheel farmers seem to like the con crete and wooden stave better than all others. The concrete silo can be built for $3.00 to $3.50 per ton ca pacity aud will last indefinitely when properly constructed. The stave silo can be built for about $2.00 per ton capacity and will last from 5 to 15 years. Mr. Raney will be available for giving help pnd advice in silo 'build ing during the period extending from June 1 to September 15 and those who will need his assistance this summer should write him now so wis -to be placed on his list. At the 'same time, -he suggests that those farmers planning to build a silo sh<>uld plant their com acreage figuring one ton of silage for each 1 five bushel yield of corn given by tho land. ? o? ? ? 1 DEATH OF MRS.

Davis to sit up with the sick and to render any service that I could to that much beloved brother. About eight P.M. we heard a Ford coming and soon I was being inform ed that 1 was wanted at the parson age. "Some folks up there want to get married "they told me,andlwent with them in much fear and trem bling. But when we reached the par sonage I saw that there were' many people in the house and a good num ber in the yard and I looked in vain for the bride and groom. Several of the young men and even some of the girls seemed very anxious to marry but no one had license and I gave up the idea of a wedding. Then I saw what was up and not a word could I say. They had placed the packages on the front porch and I could hard ly get into the house lor them. Soon we were gathered in the hous? and I read a passage of scripture and we worshipped the Lord by the fireside. The people then sang some good old hymns and bade us a cheery goodnight and drove away. As soon as they were out of sight we began examining the packages and we found them to contain the following : There was candy for the baby, Canned fruit for the shelf, Sauerkraut for my wife, Pickled "Ibeans for myself. There wns flour to make biscuit, There was corn for the mill, , Sweet potatoes for dinner, And tomatoes to spill. There was lard in a bucket, There was sugar in a sack, Pickles in a bottle, And walnuts to crack. Irish potatoes in abundance, Soup beans, colored tan, There was co. 'eo for ihe pot, And meat for the pan. There were onions, to plant, There was cabbage to fry, There was oatmeal to eat, - And syrup hard by. <*: But why in the world, Should I write such a rhyme? For we will eat it all up. In a verv short time. * VAN B. U AilRISOW HONOR ROLt FOR WINTER / QUARTER OF CULI/0 WHEE NORMAL Regulations: 1.
