CORN STALKS FOR FEED.

There is a great loss sustained each
year by farmers who feed fodder in a
haphsz9rd manner, ss if it possessed
but little, if any, feeding value. Fed
as most of is is IN the great corn belt i5
does not possess very great value as a
feed for stock, but serves a purpose OF
as roughness. Gut up for ensilage aud
sliced it has feeding value which, for
dairy animals. makes it equal if not su
perior to clover hay. Wnen the terms
corn stalks are used reference is made
to fields of corn from which the ears
have been husked. Fodder means corn
stalks that have been cut and shocked.
In the West it is a common practice to
pasture stalk fields with cattle aad
horses, also giving sheep and hogs &C
cess to them. This means, otcouree, that
much Of the value of the stalks as feed
is destroyed by the stock tramping the
husks and blades into the ground and
otherwise damaging the crop of stalks.
Corn fodder has a greater feeding
posed to the varying conditions of the
weather, and, according to an average
of numerous analyses which have been
made, contains 4 per cent protein, IA 8
per cent crude fiber, "a Z per cent car
bohydrates and 6 fat. Corn stover con
tains: Protein, 8; crude fiber, 1877;
carbohydrates, 81 5, and fat, l per
cent. Timothy hay is given of pro
tein, 9; crude fiber, 90; carbC-
hydrstes, As. and fat 2 5 per cent.
Analysis Of the several parts of corn
stalks shows the leaves to contain 4 81
per cent of protein, II 80 per cent of
fiber, q % per cent Of csrbohy drates
and n per cent Of fat. Hlsks contain
2,7I per cent OF protein, 16 70 per cent
of fiDer, %. 80 per cent OF Carbohydrates
and 81 per cent Of fat The upper half
Of the stalk contains l S8 per cent of
protein, % 81 per cent of fiber. 26. rs
per cent Of carbohy drates and sc per
cent OF fac. The lover halt of the stalk
contains 1.10 per cent Of protein, Is %
per cent Of fiber, 16 % per cent of car
bohy drates and 48 per cent of fat.
From this analysis 1t will be observed
that the leaves stand ficst in all the
elements Of highest value. The upper
half of the stalk is Of considerably
higher value in all elements than the
lower half.

is simply Que TO the fact that th9y
have been deprived of the suitable
ply ysical condition, by exhausting the
supply of vegetable matter, tnat Is so
conducive TO the Liberation OF the ioert
plant food"
Prot L1tta, the Agriculturist of the
Indiana Station, gives his views as fol
lows:
There is a pro and con to the question
of fall blowing, and it may not be
amiss to call attention to some facts
both for and against this practice.
Heavy lands, which need to undergo
a weathering process, especially il
plowed deeper than usual, may some
times be advantageously broken in the
fall of tue year. If a severe winter
follows, the thorough freezing OF the
inverted soil will help greatly to pull
veriz9 it for crops the succeeding
spring Then the fall plo we'd land will,
during the fall and early spring, settle
down again into close capillary rela
ton with the soil and crops growing on
such ground would be less liable TO
early drouth than spring plowed
ground. Another advantage in fall
blowing ia that i5 will reduce the rush
of spring work. II for any reason sub
soiIing is needed, as in sugar beet
growing, it would be bsst to ploW In
the fall, b fore the ground is thorough
" saturated with the autumn rains
At this time, the lower soil being dryer,
it will pulverizs better than in the
spring of the year.
The above appear to be the chief
points IN favor of fell blowing. The
following points may be urged against
fall plowing:
1sE Unless the land is very heavy
and retentive, there is some liability OF
loss OF soluble plant food by teaching if
the plowing is done in the fall, which
might largely be prevented If some
crop were left growing on the soil, till
spring.
2l. If the lar d is at all rolling, the
fall pIo we'd landis liable to wash badly.
81 II the winter should be open and
quite wet the blowing of the stiff clay
might prove II furious to the texture Of
the soil ra5her than benefi sial.
4sh Long manure could not be hauled
out as made during the winter months
and applied to the fall-plowed land.
In corn growing the average, for
most s)iis, would seem to lie in favor
of spring blowing. This would permit
some growing crop to remain on the
land during the winter months, and the
application of fresh manure, which is
perhaps most advRnIageously applied
to the corn crop.
Then in case the spring should be
wet, the crop already upon the land
could be allowed to grow for little
while and thus reduce the surplus
moisture before turning it uader for the
succeeding corn crop.

tions for the animal at this important
period. As soon as the SOW has gotten
enough fat on her bones, the corn in
the ration should give way to some
thing OF more bulky and less heating
and fattening nature. At this time
chufas, artichokes, beets, turnips, po-
tatoes and other field crops with refuse
apples, cabbages or other vegetables
which usually accumulate about the
kitchen of the farm house make a
valuable addition to the food of the
brood SOW. If there is not enough Of
the above refuse material to satisfy the
demands of the appetite, clover or pea
vine or peanut hay cut into inch
lengths and steamed and sprlnkled
over with corn meal or wheat mid
dIings will help out wonderfully. An
occ asional feed of corn silage in the
winter will be of considerable value as
it adds succulency to the ration. If
the entire corn plant has been cut into
the silo the brood sows and stock hogs
may be kept in a growing condition
through the winter on this with a
slight addition of wheat middlings or
something of that nature and warm
slop from the kitchen and dairy
