DOOR FROM ENSlLAGE.
Experiments Show That 1t Has No
Bad Eject on Milk.

Bad Effect on Milk.
The Wisconsin experiment station has
been testing the effect of the odor from
ensilage and from the silo upon the
milk. 1t was demonstrated that when
it was fed to the cows shortly before
milking it gave the milk a swedish
odor by which it could be detected cas-
lily. When this milk was made into
butter, the same odor could be detect
ed in that, but the Chicago experts
gave the butter from the ensilage a
higher score on flavor than that made
from cows that had no ensilage.
When the ensilage was fed directly
after milking, in the majority Of cases
no odor could be detected in the milk
at the next milking.
The eXpermenters divided some sweet
milk into two lots and placed one lot
in the silo, directly upon the ensilHge,
for one hour. Then 1t was put into
cans, and the same quantity that had
not been near the silo into others, and
they asked those whom they thought
competent persons to select them. Out

selecting the wrong cans.
Then two lots were taken to the silo
and one placed in it for an hour, while
the other had the air of the silo forced
through it for the same length OF time.
Then experts were called to examine
It. In "a examinations there were sew
en- in which no odor Of the ensilage
was detected. and they agreed that "the
odor taken by these milks was much
less pronounced than is found in milks
produced where ensilage is fed just
before milking"
Then quantity of milk was divided
into two parts, and one was cooled by
having the air from the silo forced
through it 1000 times by hand bel
lows. The other was only exposed to
the outside air. Both lots were tested
for acidity, and the milk treated in the
silo indicated less acidity than the 9TH
err. When both were aerated in the
same way, one with air from the silo
and the other with outside air, the acid
ity was decreased about alike in each.
'.'.is seems to dispose Of the objec-
lions that feeding silage or having the
silo connected with the barn will cause
the milk to sour more readily, also that
it will impart disagreeable odor to
milk and flavor to the butter when it
is fed, rs it does not when fed after
milking.

The right time to buy is when every
body wants to sell, but few do so. Once
in awhile some wise man will act upon
this theory and always makes money.
A safe rule to be governed by is this:
Whenever any commodity is selling be-
low the cost Of production it is a safe
proposition to invest in it. This motto
should be learned by heart.
