A Lesson in Silos.
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. The rector will preach
a New Years sermon, the subject of
which will be “Pressing Onward to
the Goal.”
Evensong and sermon at 7:30.
Sunday School at 9:45. All the
members of the parish are kindly
asked to make a strong ffreot to
be present at these services that
they may make a fresh start in
Christian duty and service for the
coming New Year.

Too Much Printed Matter?
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.
