The election here Tuesday to elect two Reprueentatives to the Legis!ature proved quite a sar I prise to the local politicians. It was generally expected by the De mocrats that Dr. D. C. Labbe, running as a Progressive,would be defeated, and instead of that be ran ahead of the two Democratic candidates. It was also expected that Mr. Gaston Thibodeaux would run ahead of the other two cand idates, when he proved to be the weakest. Messrs. D. C. Lab- - be and Emile Muillemot' were elected. THE VOTE. The vote cast Tuesday for Re presentatives was as follows: Dr. D. C.

Bucklen's Arnica Salve for Sores WHY A SILO ? Here are 10 reasons why every farmer who keeps livestock should y have a silo. They were formula ted by Professor J. H. Skinner of i& Purdue University. 1. The silo preserves the pala- rA tability and uooculence of the green corn plant for winter feed.- 11 ilg, 2. It helps to make use of the entire corn plant. 3. The silo increases the live stock capacity of the farm. 4. Silage is a good summer y feed when pastures are short. 5. Because of the small amount of ground spaoe required by the silo it is an economical mense of storing fursge. 6. The silo prevents waste of corn stalks, leaves and husks, whbich contain about .'o-fifths of the feeding value of k orn plant 7. The si looke near the feed manger n asdurance of ha ving feed near at band in stormy as well as fair weather. 8. The silo assists in reducing the cost of grains in fattening cat tle and sheep. 9. Silags greatly increaser the milk flow during the winter season and decreases the cost of pruduc- - tiou. 10. There are no stalks to both er in the manure when corn is put into silo. All should understand that eil age is not a complete baloanced ra tion. It is a socculent food and ci shboold be supplemented with some baloancing dry feed. d STO?
