A Small Wooden Silo,

If your underground stable is 8 feet
high, and you can wall up one corner
by making double wood partition on
two sides, thus making a silo 10 by Is
feet, you will be able to store about 80
tons of corn ensilage, allowing 50
pounds of ensilage to the cubic foot.
OF course this amount would not last
a great while if fed to COWS, but it
would be good appetizer, and if only
10 or Is pounds day of ensilage was
given in connection with other feeds,
to each COW, it would doubtless pay.
When the silo is full, cover with a little
straw, and then with boards, and
weight with sacks of grain, loan that
you are going to use for absorbents,
rocks, or aay thing handy. You can
have door in the side to take the en-
silage out. The fodder can either be
put in green Or partly cured. BY the
latter plan, you handle less water and
get ensilage of higher feeding quail
