headquarters has given out the follow-
ing; Big strike of coal miners is ex-
pected in the Crows Nest district, and
all through the weet.••Two years ago
they had a strike in Crows Nest Pass
involving all the coal miners there. It
was settled through, the medium of a
board of conciliation, and the agreement
expires. April 1. Negotiations are now
under way, but it is not expected that
a settlement will be reached before
April, and it is likely that on that
date work will be suspended in the coal
mines in the Crows Nest and the Can
more districts. The mines affected have
a daily output of approximately 15,000
tons of coal and coke. The number of
Wren affected is three thousand.
The points of dispute are wages and
the recognition of the open shop..
The leading domestic coal mines are
the 0, P. •R. aline. atBanlahead, A. R. &

A struggle of any duration would re -
suit in the closing of the smelters in the
west Kootenay, as they are dependent
on the Crows Nest for coke. It might
also affect a few of the smelters in
Montana.

SWEET CORN STALKS.
Make the Very Best of Ensilage Says
an Expert.
At a meeting of tato .iatt.ientid Canner,'
A:sometime of the En:tori States N. 1.
Nelson, Secretary .inti 7 teneurer 01 the
Lake, STi1ls Canning Company, chose as
hie subject "Sweet. Corn Stat'ks its En-
silage.” !tfr. Nelson said in part;
"it will be my aint to submit facts and
figures to suhetaa'rate illy claim that
sweet corn -stalks make the retry best of
Cneilage with an outitty of practically
ilotlting. .1 have here comparative (l-
ines 011 the relative waltzes or: ewee,t cern

ters at Lake !bilis. Mr. Patterson has
neade a special study of ensilage and
has made a personal analy,;is of these
products, therefore the figures ca be de-
pended upon as absolutely correct. here
are the figures for your consideration:
Per cent. of digestible nutrients) in
sweet corn stalks --Protein, .94; nerbo-
hydrates, 14; fat, .5; dry :natter, 22.L
Per Bent. of digestible nutrients in
mature dent corn silage.—Protein, .0;
carbohydrates, 31..3; fat, .7; dry matter,
20.9.
"You will observe that in point of di-
beetible •uutri»tcnts the sweet corn stalk,
without the ears, exceeds 'that of • the
dent corn, ineluding the ears. We find
that 100 tons of sweet corn silage colt -
tains as much 'digestible nutriments as
does $201,50 worth of shelled corn at 40e
per bushel, or $390 woeth of oats at 28e
per bushel. Again, 100 torts of etveet
corn silage contains 27,792 rounds of di-
gestible nutriments. To me these figurers
are most interesting, and they surely ex-
plode the now •prehlstot:a contention
that sweet corn stalks are worthless as
ensilage.,
"So much for the cold figure end of my
argument, and now I will aware to you
