To show the value of the silo, the cost of its construction and mainten ance together with its many advan tages and how it increases the value of feed, the National Association of Silo manufacturers has been organ ized and will make demonstrations that farmers may have a complete knowledge of the silo before invest ing in them. Of course the silo hsa passed the experimental stage, but it is still thought to be an expensive proposi tion and in comparison with tis cost some farmers are likely to think its advantages trivial. One of the finest exhibits to be made underr the auspices of the Na tional Association of Silo manufac turers is to be at the Western Land Products Exhibit which is to be held in Omaha January 18 to 28 inclu sive. Here Prof. A. L. Haecker, for years with the University of Nebras ka will make a complete demonstra tion. This includes everything from cost of the stave or cement, silo to the comparative storage capactiy of the silo and the barn. One of the significant things about the silo and the barn when compared is that a barn costing eight times as much as the silo will not hold and more feed than the silo and besides there is no process for enhancing the value of feed stored in a barn as there is in the silo. This exhibit at Omaha is just one of scores of practical things to be learned at such mid-winter exposi tions. A farmer can learn more about the silo by visiting the land ex hibit in Omaha in an hour than he could by building a silo at big cost, trying it himself or by driving about the country for days visiting those who have silos on their farms. The Western Land Products exhibit is condensed agricultural knowledge placed under one roof and being in its simplest form, easily acquired. St. Thomas Church. The entire musical program of the midnight service Christmas eve will be repeated next Sunday at 10:45 a. rn.

Thinklets. _ No man can escape from himself. The companionship is insuperable, i Ingalls. • * * Think and do but let results and ) others tell how good you are. * • * Enthusiasts without fixed inten tion are like the blank eatrldges used in sham battle's, good only for their noise. * * * The world’s greatest heroes are the conquerors of themselves. • * • Quick decision denotes whether or not we have a mind in order. Fear is a fanciful terror in our hearts that steals away accomplish ments. * * * The excuse makers rarely makes j progress in other lines of industry. * * * The fastest flying machine is | gossop. * * • Few women are able to write for magazines but all can write for cat alogues. * * * Whitewash your barn, but never try to whitewash a crooked politician. • * • Carelessness does more harm than want of knowledge. » • * What passes for sympathy is often like a woman’s hair—a lot of it false. • * • When the world laughs at a fool he imagines it is laughing with him. * * * Love really is blind and this ac counts for the neckties some women buy for their husbands. • • • Which bores you more, listening to peoples’ troubles or their jokes. • • • Ambition will never lose its incen tive nor genius its supremacy. * * * Contentment makes men rich in poverty—millionairs in disguise. • * * Goodness in every way to every body, everywhere, everytime is prof itable. WWW You owe so much to your own peace of mind that you cannot af ford to anyone else. • • • It is no sign of your own strength to have only contempt for the unfor tunate and no patience with the foolish. * * * If a woman isn’t ashamed to wear , her last year's clothes, it is a sign i she is rich. * * • Talk is cheap, yet some people use extravagant language. * * * Every man is the center of a cir cle whose fatal circumference he can not psas. * • » You cannot hope to become a mas ter—a leader of men—until you first overcome your strongest oppon ent., yourself. ■ Just Published Webster’. NEW INTERNATIONAL Dic tionary (G. & C. Merriam Co., Springfield, Mass.) surpasses the old International as mnch as that book eiceeded its predecessor. On the old foundation a new superstructure i has been built. The reconstruction has been j carried on through many years by a large force of trained workers, under the super vision of Dr. W. T. Harris, former United States Commissioner of Education, and reen forced by eminent specialists. The defini tions have bcea rearranged and amplified. The number of terms defined has been more than doubled. The etymology, synonyms, | pr-nur.ciation, have received unsparing j scholarly labor. The language of English literature for over seven centuries, the ter minology of the arts and scirnces, ar.d the every-day speech of street, shop, ard house hold, are presented with fullness and clear ness. In sis* of vocabulary, in richness of genera) information, aid in convenience of consultation, the book sets a new mark in lexicography. - VvViie to tue publisher* for Specimen !*•»«•.

There never was a time, at least during the last 200 years, when the difficulties in the way of making an efficient use of books were greater than they are today, when the obsta cles were more real between readers and the right books to read, when it was practically so troublesomo to find out that which is of vital importance to know; and that not by the dearth, but by the plethora of printed matter. For It comes to nearly the Bame thing, whether we are actually debarred by physical impossibility from getting the right book into our hand, or whether we are choked off from the right book by the obtrusive crowd of the wrong books; so that it needs a strong charac ter and a resolute system of reading to keep the head cool in the storm of literature around us.—Frederick Har rison. The Ladies’ Aid. We’ve put a fine addition on the good old church at home. It's just the latest kilter, with a gal lery and dome, It seats a thousand people— finest church in all the town. And when 'twas dedicated, why we planked ten thousand down; That is, we paid five thousand— ev ery fellow did his best— And the Ladies' Aid Society, it prom ised all the rest. We've g of an organ in the church— very finest in the land. It's got a thousand pipes or more, its melody is grand. And when we sit. on cushioned pews and hear the master play, It carries us to realms of bliss un numbered miles away. It cost a cool three thousand, an 1 its stood the hardest test; We’ll pay a thousand on it the Ladies’ Aid the rest. They’ll give a hundred sociables, cantatas, too and leas; They’ll bake a thousand angel cakes, and tons of creatn they'll freeze. They’ll beg and scrape and toil and sweat for seven years or more. And then they'll start all o'er again. for a carpet for the floor. No. it Isn’t, just like digging out the money form your vest When the Ladles' Aid gets busy and says, We’ll pay the rest. Of course we're proud of our big church from pulpit up to spire; It is (he darling of our eyes, the crown of our desire, Hut when I see the sisters work to raise the cash that lacks, I somehow feel the church is built on women’s tired backs. And sometimes I can’t help thinking when we reach the regions blest, That men will get the TOIL and SWEAT, the Ladies’ Aid the rest. Ladies’Suede and; Velvet Shoes H. M.
