To take the place of pasturage two meth ods of getting green food can be re sorted to. The first being to grow such crops as rye, wheat, oats, sor ghum, and corn and cut these at the proper time and feed to the cows. The second method is to put up green food in such a manner that it will keep green the entire year and be ready to feed at any season. To keep green food all the year it is necessary to keep it air tight. The most conven ient form in which to do this is by use of the silo. The silo may be made of brick, concrete, or 'wood-which ever is most convenient to the builder. How to build and what to use will be explained in detail if application is made to the dairy division of Clem son college. The requirements for any silo being that when filled it will be air tight and have great en,ugh depth so that the pressure of the sil age will drive out all the air. The material, such as corn and sorghum of which most of the silage is made, must be put into the silo green. If at all dry, water must be added, for un less it stays damp in the silo it will spoil. Two advantages of the silo is that it gives a supply of green food the entire year and enables the farmer to put up a large amount of food in a very small space. The cost of the silo will average about $1 to '$2 per ton capacity. The cost of putting the corn' or sorghum into the silo, counting all cost of growing, will vary from $2 to $4 per ton. No dairyman can afford to be without a silo. Prof. J. M. Burgess. Aeronauting and dying tre begin ning to be synonymous terms.-News and Courier. A i ssion to Rescue the Fallen. A. W. Elliott, cj2. Atlanta, Ga., who has had many years' experience as a rescue worker and who has been gath ering information along the line of white slave traffic in the South, has organized the Southern Rescue Mis sion with headquarters in Atlanta, and with the privilege of establishing. branches throughout the country, with the sole object in view of driving out of existence the traffic in girls, which he claims is reaching alarming pro portions. The incorporators are A. W. Elliott, of Atlanta, P. V. Hollings worth, of Augusta, and Rev. Lamar Sims, of Albany. - . Mr. Elliott's long and varied exper iences in this work of rescue has giv en him a knowledge of true conditions as but few possess, and he states that the slaughter of human souls has be come wholesale, and that unless steps are taken to break up this traffic and help the girls break loose from their slavers (who are holding them either~ by their affection or through fear), that we are not a freedom loving na tion, and that we do not sympathize with the oppressed. Mr. Elliott states that there are thousands of worthless men in the South who do practically no work and. wear the very finest clothing, and that their daily and nightly vocation is gambling. Their money and the very food they - eat is furnished them by! girls whom they hold in their grasp, either through their affections or fear. And he further says that these "pimps" or "cadets" arte not only holding "to death" these poor "mothers' girls" crushing them down into the depths of moral degeneracy, but a great many of them are lying in wait, as a deadly viper would, to strike their fangs to the h:earts of the young, innocent and thoughtless girls of our country girls whom we would be proud of girls whom we need to be the mothers of future generations. He says fur ther that this traffic is increasing in alarming proportions, and that steps should be taken at once to break it up. "If our laws," he says, "are not suf ficient to handle the situation, let more' drastic measures be enacted. Make laws that will protect the young and innocent from the snares of these "life and purity destroyers." "A great many of these pimps or white slavers," Mr. Elliott further states, "are known to many of the officers of the law, and why do they not handle them? Why will they sac rifice the young of our nation rather than do their duty ?" Mr. Elliott states that this organ ization will begin a fearless fight on these destroyers of purity, and that this fight shall extend over the Southern States, and he makes an ap peal to this "liberty loving" people to stand with him in this fight-to lend him encouragement and sympathy.
