suggestions made by the speaker. At
the close of his speech he answered a
number of questions asked of him by
farmers present, all of which he
answered promptly and Intelligent
ly so that there seemed to be no in
sincerity regarding the subject un
der discussion.
One of the subjects under consid
eration at tho institute was "Sum
mer Soil and Soiling System," by
Prof. Wells W. Cook, of the Agricul
tural department in Washington, D.
C.
The sneaker referred to the ques'
tion of using silage for summer feed
as well as for the winter months,
His experience proved that the sys
tem of feeding cattle met with the
best results.
The reason for the entire use of
grain ns feed is because it lessens the
amount of work of the cattle.
To feed sllago throughout the en
tire year a special provision must be
made. During the cold weather it
is only necessary to use a thin layer
of silage each day. As spring ad'
vances the amount of silage must be
increased, duo to the fact that the
air acts more strongly on the silage
during the warmer seasons.
If the plan of feeding silage
throughout the year is decided upon
it -would be necessary to have more
than one silo as a farmer can readily
see that it would take an enormous
amount of silage to meet the demand
An excellent system and one
Which the speaker adopted was to
nave tnreo silos, one 12 feet, one
inch, 9 feet one, and 7 feet.in diame
ter. During the winter the cattle
are fed from the largest silo, and as
summer approaches, the smaller ones
are used.
The speaker also stated that it
was found best, and in the long run,
yielded larger crops to plant silage
corn on the same ground each year.
To obtain good results through this
method the farmer would, of courso,
have to feed the ground, that is, ma
nure and mellow It thoroughly.
The most important fact of silage
is to Keep it from connection with the
air. '
Prof. Cook also spoke of rye, when
cut at the proper time, resulting in
just as good silage as the best corn.
The time is when the head appears
on the stalks of rye. Twelve tons of
corn and six tons of rye, which is a
minimum amount produced per acre,
"will feed two cows a good meal of
silage 3C5 days in the year.
Prof. Cook brought his lecture to
a close with the statement that one
of the most important things to con
sider in raisins silage is to prepare
the ground thoroughly through the
medium of fertilizer.
Sir. Cook was accorded a hearty
applause and he certainly deserved it.
Corn, Breeding and Culture.
J. Stuart Groupe, of Jersey Shore,
Pa., handled this subject in a very
commendable manner. Mr. Groupe
was brought up in the city and at an
early age decided to become a farm
er. The speaker emphasized the fact
that his success was partly due to the
reason that ho did a good many
things that his neighbors did not do.
He is progressive and through this he
has lsft a good many of his neighbors
in the rear, whllo he Is far in the
lead.
Ho discussed tho question of corn
breeding, and showed that in some
Instances sweet corn, when raised
near feed c6rn, becomes mixed. The
reason for this Is that the pollen has
been blown from one grade of corn
to the other, thus effecting the mix
ture. This Is termed cross pollena
tion. Corn affected In this manner
will Increase tho yield of grain from
25 to 30 per cent.
Mr. Groupe stated that in his ex
perience he found that the best grain
corn was that which grew on a level
with the helgth of a waist of a man.
This concluded tho subject of corn
breeding and tho speaker turned to
that other branch Corn Culture.
The speaker stated that he was an
advocate of deep plowing as a method
of producing better crop results.
This takes more horse flesh, or pow
er, but In his experience it was well
worth the effort. Ho said Jie always
cultivated corn after a rain and prin
cipally during July.
One advantngo of deep plowing is

Mexico City. Dec. 10.-"I may bo
driven out of here, but before I go I
will do something that will make mo
go down In history for a hundred
years," General Victoriano Huorta said.
Owing, it Is believed, to desperation
Hucrttt is vacillating in his actions and
orders. He revoked his order giving
General Tcllez's command to General
Nnvurette and called Navarette back to
the capital.
When, the chamber of deputies met it
was scheduled to discuss the validity
of the recent elections. Tho subject
has been up for consideration Bcveral
times, and the final vote has been de
ferred each time.
A small tlde'of American travel again
Is turning toward Vera Cruz on ac
count of the many rumors of an ap
proaching battle near the capital.
Important developments are expected
herein following tho departure for San
Francisco of the women members of
General Huerta's family It Is believed
that much more than the nnnounced
pleasure trip is bohitul the move. ' As a
matter of fact, it is believed that Gen
eral Huorta Is providing against tho
day when he must make his last stand.
The report from London that Gen
eral Huorta Is preparing to move tho
capltnl of Mexico to Iguala, state of
Guerrero, southwest of the state of
Mexico, fails entirely of understanding
here. It Is known that Huerta has
made plans for tho contingency of de
feat If he had to abandon Mexico
City before the advance of Pancho
Villa ho might possibly drive a bargain
with Emllinno Zapata, bandit and
chief of the rebels in Puebla, Morelos
and Guerrero, who Is even now raiding
tho suburbs of tho City of Mexico
Fighting Near Capital.
Zapata is accommodating enough,
and inasmuch as his own fingers Itch
for tho plunder of Mexico City he
would probably oppose Villa. Only by
a lea cue with Zapata could Huerta get
to Iguala. Such a compact would lack
the element of confidence.
There has boon continuous fighting
between Mexico City and Cuernavaca.
Details are lacking, although the net
result of tho scrips of engagements
seems to be tho halting of tho Zapatis
tas at least temporarily. There are
other Zapatista detachments at Amera-
meco and Ozumba, on the northern
boundary of Morelos, and generally
there is nn increase of rebel activity in
the states south of Mexico.
In announcing a victory over tho Za
patistas In Morelos the government re
ported officially the killing of Genevevo
do la O, a bandit chief, who formerly
operated independently of Zapata. It
is reported that Do la O was found
among tho rebel dead.
Willie tho rebels are raiding within
fifteen miles of tho capital, they do n'ot
appear in any considerable numbers
Yet conditions are so unsettled that
wood cutters and charcoal burners do
not dare go out as usual, fearing cap
ture and execution. Troops sent out
after tho bandits fall to get them.
