Saving Corn Fodder.

To save corn fodder to the best advan-
tage, the corn should be cut up at the
ground as soon as the ears are glazed, and
set i'm moderate sized stooks-large enough
to stand we'll. and allow the corn to ripen
and cure we'll. Care must be taken to
set the corn in rather small handfuls, all
around alike, so the stock may be well
balanced If one side is made heavier
than the other, it is apt TO crowd the stock
over. 1t is also very important to husk
the corn and secure the fodder as soon as
both are we'll cured, and before the late
fall storms have much chance to damage
either. The SHOWS of November are very
injurious to corn fodder, and especially so
when they conn with high winds that drive
the snow all through the stocks. A very
good way to keep corn fodder, is in rather
small stacks, well put up and secured
against high winds and storms. Except
in very dry season cornstalks that make
a heavy growth seldom get dry enough to
stow away in large mows, but a good deal
may be put on scaffolds and other places
where it is surrounded with air.
Corn fodder, if thus cut, saved and ia
ken care of. will come out bright, green
and sweet in the winter, and will be freely
consumed by nearly all kinds of stock. 1t
will then be found one of the cheapest and
best substitutes for hay that is available in
American farming.
