We had to get four farmers to erect concrete silos, to get the Uni versity to build us a set of steel forms. That was soon done and wenow know where SIX concrete silos are to be built. Nine farmers have definitely decided to build silos and as many more are seriously considering it. Some will build of concrete,some with staves. Both are good. In every com munity where a silo is built there will be several more the next year. Thisis the-universal experience all over the state. With silo-building and plat work and the rest we guess our ‘Ford’ will do considerable traveling next summer. We had a letter rgcently from Mr. Nickel, of Seymour, who is coming here to.start the creamery He is looking forward to the time with much enthusiasm. Now, every farmer should do his utmost to gef cream to sell. Buy an extra cow or two. They will pay you good interest on the money if properly managed. Form co operative associations to haul the cream. If six farmers combine and form a cream route each one's turn will come only once in three weeks. A successful creamery is the greatest factor for the wellfare of a farming community that is known. Support it and thus help yourself and your neighbors. ‘Our stereopticon is here and at work. Jan. 11th a meeting was held at the new schoolhouse at Sayner. By the way, Sayner has the finest one-room schoolhouse we have ever seen.
