"Ue it re:o!ved than the bankers and fertilizer companies of the state are requested to grant extension of all paper for fertilizer.! and other sup. plies used in making the present crop. "Resolved, That in making such ex.

Since the organization of the An derson County Live Stock Association,! in the quarters of the chamber of com incrcc. last spring, there hus been so much interest evinced in live stock and hogs that there ha.; sprung up quite a considerable interest in the building of silo? in this region Therefore the agricultural bureau of the chamber of commerce yesterday issued the following bulletin to all farmers: Many men will fill silos for the first time this year, and some infor mation uh to when and how to fill a silo may not be out of place. The greater pan of the silage this year, in the Panhandle, will be made from kafir, milo, fetcrlta and sweet .lorphum. The proper time to cut this feed for stlagc is when the seed are ia the stiff dou~h stage and the bot tom leaves h'.gln to turn brown, ,for at this stage the plant will have its maximum nutritive value and yet be; green enough to keep well in the silo. ' The fed should be cut with a row binder, us this is the most oconom I ical method when one haz a large amount to cut. In hauling the feed from the field j to i\\r silo, a "-ason with a low-down { bed le much better than one with a I reirular hay frnirii?. n? the Z---? bun dle i are rather heavy to lift. Enough wagons should be used to keep the feed hauled out of the field a? fast as~it is cut Do not leave the feed in the field. to wilt and become partly cured before putting into the silo, as a part, of tho nutritlvo value may be lost, and if dry it will not keep as well. It is. especially advisable to take as large a. load as possible each trip, for 83 th*e feed is green loads of large bulk ?an not be handled, and If a wagon is only partly loaded each time the expense of filling the silo will be great/y., Increased. If one has strong wagons' -and good drivers, four-horse teams, may be used to ad vantage. ,.i r ...... .. ,.. ; Silage should' be cut Into one-half I inch lengths, as it. packs In much closer than when, left longer, thus crowding out tho air. and the sllago keeps better. The capacity of'ihe *?llo increased and there 1b less waste in feeding, as all will be eaten. The power required to run tho ull age cutter, with blower - attached, is ordinarily figured at one horse power for each lncfyjpf cutter?that Is, a 15, inch cutter, 7^11 require a 15 horse power gasoline engine, but In filling a pit silo where no blower is required, only about half this power Is needed. One of the most, if not the most. , important part in filling a b11o Is the ; i packing of the silage The silage must bo packed well if it is to keep, , for this packing forces out the air \ \ and the essential thing in making j ' ail ago is the exclusion of air. If air j spaces are left in tho silo, large | amounts of silage will be lost. In a silo 12 foot in diameter and'with a ! small cutter, use two or more men.. I In large silos' and filling with largo I cutters, keep three or more men In) the stlo and see that they tramp all the time. Pack tho edges next to the wall, the middle will take care of. Itself. When tho feed Is green, no water j need be added in making silage, but. If the feed has begun to dry or euro in tho Hold ' serine water should he run into the bIIo with the cut feed. ' This Is done to bring the moisture contents of the feed noarsr to its nat ural state, to make, the feed pack down better, and help exclude the air One. safe rule in this matter .would be* It in doubt,'rhn in'some water. Water will hot .hurt the silage If thore Is no excess, and every silo should have either a dirt floor or a drain, which will let any excess water: escape. The best place. to add tho ;'. water Is to run it into the blower, while cutting. ! As six or more'inches' of silage at the top will spoil,'it is sometimes ad visable to cover tho' top with some , cheap or worthless feed. A layer of ; cut oat straw is sometimes run In for. a covering for tho silage and w?t' down and well tramped! This forms. a seal and preserves all the feed.! Tin_ ??Jl-x- tX .- .11 ' ?? Ikl.

President, Columbia, S. GJ ? ooooooooooooooooooo o o o GEN. E. P. ALEXANDER. o o - ooooooooooooo (The Savannah Precs.) The death of Gen. E P. Alexander! removed from the south one of its' most prominent figures. Gen. Alexan der wus a man of wide intelligence | and one who took a great interest in j the affairs of his country. 'His services both to the United States and to the Confederacy were marked by the most devoted and close attention to duty and throughout Ins long life he gave bis services willing, ly and ungrudgingly to those whom lie l'iticved could be beet helped thereby. He won fame In many fields. ' First, as an engineer in tho army of the United Stater?, and then as a leader upon the field, of the forces of ?'.ne Confederacy, ho proved himself a man of - brillant intellect and unflinch ing bravery. Since the war he baa served in many capacities with muer? credit to himself. Gen. Alexander* was an optimist, a:-> shown by his poetical answer to. the late John Hay's doleful and disheart ening poemj."The Stirrup Cup." There is an interesting story In cnonection with this poem -ar.r? thoj answer which Is known to few per son?-. Jobs Hay wrote "The Stirrup] ?up" anonymously. It will be re-< called that it left nothing upon whicn] to base the theory of a better lifo af ter death. It was as follows: The Stirrup Cn!?. T My short and-happy daysh.' done, Tho'long and lonely, night comer? ou^ And at ray door the pale horse stnnu To bear me forth to unknown -lands.' His whinny shrill, h la pawing hoof <"l So'und dreadful as- tho gutharing storm) And * I trtMn*. th... thiS'Shcltcri?g roof1 And joj'b of life,, so swo?t and warm. Oh, joy'n of ljfo, so 'Sweet and - warm,' Kipd, friend, bo faithful and K> true,' My rosy children and . my wife, So sweet to kiss 00 fair to view. So-Bweet to kiss, so fair to view; The utght comea ou, the light- burns J V';. blue; And. at my door tho pale horse stands To bear-the forth' to unknown lands. .Tho tone of this poem was too. dole ful for G oh . Alexander, who taking a more cheerful view and one in strict accord with the Christian faith, added to.the tfoom of Mr, Hay the following Verse: - ? ' But. storm and " Bloom and mystery Shall only sorVo my courage high, i Who thro Hfe'a, scenes has borne hlu part : ; . May faco its close with tranquil heart.] No trembling hand will grAsp tW rein, j No craven soul th? path will trace; This* life hath not been mine in vain. 1 In unknown lands I'll Beek my place; X'drain the cup and boldly faoe The heritage of th? human race, Whose birthright 'tia to pierce the] gloom' And solve tho mystery of the tomb. ;\ I follow somo. and others lead From whom iny bout would heever uM vide 0?e' s.te tor all. Where moves the] ' ' .great - Profession, there let; no e)>ide. When Geu. Alexander wrote these Verses. he did not know wa? ;th? raar- t thor-of "The. Stlrrtrp >Cup'^ was. Ret thought the lines? of th?- latter were! Incomplete and too-much: filled -'with I the sadness of death baa > ?eriijisi.?'"-f oen.
