Moscov.- in the very near future.
The newspapers publish an official
announcement that the evacuation of
the fortified port of Reval on the Baltic
at the entrance to the Gulf of Finland
has begun.
The schools at Reval have beer,
closed. The inhabitants of the cit>
are being sent to the interior of

The sailors of the main Baltic flee
are reported to be keen to fight. Th
men at Kronstadt are demanding thaJ
tlie ships be sent out to meet the Germans,
but the government is under
stood to have taken the position that
the enemy forces are of superioi
size, it would be disastrous to leav
Petrograd undefended.
After the capture of Riga by th<
Germans, preparations for the remov
al of the government to Moscow wer
begun. The failure of the German
to develop their offensive after takinj:
Riga, as well as the approach of wir
ter weather making open campaign
ing impracticable, relieved the feai.
for the safety of Petrograd for the
near future. Last week, announce
ment was made that the preparation'
for transferring the seat of govern
rnent had been stopped, as there wa:
no prospect that such action would
be necessary at least for some time

and may be responsible for the decision
to remove the government t

MEDAL FOR THIS
Cincinnati authority tells how
to dry up any corn or callus
so it lifts right off.
1 f - " ' * '
You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the
shoes that nearly killed you before,
says this Cincinnati authority, because
x few drops of freezone applied directly
on a tender, aching corn stops
?oreness at once and soon the corn
loosens so it can be lifted out, root
and all, without a bit of pain.
A quarter of an ounce of freezone
:osts very little at any drug store, but
o sufficient to take off every hard or
soft corn or callus. This should be
ne?l, as it is inexpensive and is said
lot to inflame or even irritate the
surrounding tissue or skin.

How the Horry Farmer Can

FARMERS IN WEST
KNOW THEIR VALUE
Article Says That The Silo Will
Help to Win This
War.
The silo was never so valuable to
the farmer as it is now in furnishing
one of the best mean3 of reducing food
bills. It can be made on the farm
with little trouble, of either wood rr
concrete, says the United States Department
of Agriculture, which will
urnish plans and specifications without
cost. Where there is n0 silo, or

Advantages of the Silo.
Among the advantages claimed fot
the silo, particularly at this time
when the high price of grain threatens
the very existence of the dairy
industry, is that less grain may be fed
without reducing milk production,
provided the dairyman feeds more
silage and legume hay. It is pointed
out that the building of silos at this
time is like the building of ships or
fortifications; the silo will help to
win the war because it means the saving
of grains. Less grain is available
for the feeding of cr-ttle, since it is
needed for human food and must be
conserved for that need. Yet milk
production must be maintained, and
'his can be done by supplementing a|
I shortened grain ration with silage,
j The silo offers the best way of
preserving the mature corn crop, 40
per cent of the food value of which is
| in the stalks and leaves. It also saves
the crop which, for any reason, must
be harvested before it is mature.
When the farmer harvests only the
?ars of com he loses nearly half the
-alue of the crop; when he puts it into j
;he silo the loss is very small. When
drought, frost, or insects threaten a
field of corn before it is ripe the entire
crop may be lost unless the farmer
has a silo ready in which to pre|
serve it.
! n .
vaiue 01 succulence.
Just as fruits and green vegetable,
ire canned to supply succulence to
'.he family during the winter, the silc
supplies succulence to the cow, an',
ucculence adds to the milk flow. Th<~
ibundant milk flow obtained from
.'ur.c pasture is, to a large extent, due
to the juices of the grass; the silo pre
/ides a similar juiciness during wincr,
when pasture is not available. It
promotes the health of dairy cattle by
providing the coarse feed to which
'.l'c digestive system of the cow is accustomed.
Cows like silage, and no
>ther feed combines so well with dry
my and grain to produce much milk
at little cost.

c?? for home construction are the concrete,
the stave, the modified Wisconsin,
and the woodest-hoop type, all of
which preserve silage equally well.
The concerete silo has the advantage
of permanence and stability, but has a
higher initial cost. The stave silo
is cheaply, easily, and quickly constructed,
and there are more of them
in the United States than of any other
type. The modified Wisconsin Is
hiade of boards nailed laterally on the
inside of studding plaeed in the form
of a circle, and is said to be more substantial
than the stave silo. The wood
' en-hoop silo requires somewhat less
material than either of the other two
types of wooden silos, and may be
built of 1 by, 4 inch tongue-andgroove
flooring, with hoops of homo-1
grown material, such as oak, elm, ash,
or chestnut from the farm wood lot.
Anyone who desires to build a silo
should call on the extension department
of the State agricultural college
for any assistance that may be
needed. If the college is unable iv
give the desired help, the United States
Department of Agriculture will
furnish, free of cost, bills of material
and specifications for various dimensions
of any of the silos,
