Grand Forks Herald: The success
ST the corn crop in this state this sea
on will without doubt do more to rev
.alutionize the coarse fodder question
IN. North Dakota than might be sup
posed by the casual observer. The
acreage was the largest ever sewn in
the state, and the amount sown in the
northern. and central portions never
approached even what was sown this
season. AS a result there is an i'm
mense amount of corn fodder for the
stock this winter and many of the
farmers will pay more attention to
butter making than they have ever
done in the past. Many of the cities
and larger towns of the state have now
reached such proportions that the bus
mess of the dairymen is getting to be
a very important industry. In the
past the fodder question has been a
very important one to them, and espe-
cially has this been true for the past
few years. In the early days there
was an abundance of wild hay to be
had gratis, and the cost of hay at that
time was simply the cost of putting it
up and hauling it or having it hauled
to the city. OF late, however, wild
hay has been getting; scarce. The
farmers have not been able to secure
what they needed themselves to say
nothing of supplying the demand in
the city. Hay that was shipped in
cost too much for the city dairyman,
and swallowed up all the profits Of the
business.
During the past year or SO there has
been a tendency to SOW corn for fod-
der, and the experiment has proven a
success beyond the anticipations of the
most %sanguine, and another year the
acreage will be larger than it was this
season by at least a hall. The dairy
men of Grand Forks are not only using
corn for fodder for the cows, but have
demonstrated that silos are as prac-
ticable here as anywhere else. j.. II.
Bosard, who has oneof the largest
diaries in the state, built the first large
silo in this section two years ago and
it has proven a signal success from
the START. It will be of very great in
terest To the farmers of this state, OF
at least the northern half OF It, to give
a few figures as to the cost of the en-
silage per ton.
Mr.. Bosard put the corn from 60
acres in his silo, which has a capacity
CT $50 tons, his corn yielding eight
tons to the acre, and the cost from the
time the corn was planted till 1t wax in
the silo is as follows:

Total per acre $40. 90
As eight tons OF corn was cut per
acre this makes the cost Of the ensil-
age $3.50 per ton. These figures
have been a revelation to the few who
have inquired as to the cost, as it was
generally supposed that the expense
would be at least twice that figure per
ton. The amount OF ensiIage in the
silo is more than enough to feed &c
cows for year, allowing big ratIons,
ard many who have had experience
ii that line in other states say the 4Sl
tons will feed 40 cows for a year and
give each an abundance. Mr.. Bos-
ard further states that If proper
ground is selected at least 70 tons of
fodder can be raised to the acre, and
with his past experience as a guide he
says he is certain that he will raise
that amount another year if the season
Is fairly favorable.
There is no question but what corn
raised on an extensive scale in this
section OF the country will be a long
stride in the right direction. IT will
mean that more attention will be paid
to dairying, the ground on which cor
is raised one year will raise an i'm
mense crop of wheat or other grain
the next and the weeds will be kept
down, making the land far less foul
than it would otherwise be. In addi-
[tion the increased number Of cattle
kept would result In the land being
kept richer by the anu resulting,
EItsWoIIld also be an important step on
the part OF the farmer In getting away
from the single crop idea, and would
make him less dependent on Wheat
and would give him work the yeal
around instead OF for a few months as
ait the present time, with nothing te
do aside from chores during the winter
months. HWould mean better barns
and buildings of ali kinds, and 4

Vice Templar of the Independent Order
of Good Templars, and Organist of the

twelve years. experience as a trained
nurse, she has had many opportunities
for observation, and her opinion in all
medical health matters is held in very
high esteem by the thousands who
have learned to know and love her. In
speaking of her experience she says:
During my twelve years as trained
nurse, have often observed how many
different physicians give their patients
Dodd's Kidney Pills m cases of Diabetes
and Kidney Trouble. About three years
ago, myself suffered some months
with q weakened and continual con-
gested condition. ard decided to try
what the Pills would do for me. soon
found that they built up the affected
parts, and restored harmony to the en-
tire system, and although I often lose,
much sleep and rest while attending
severe cases, find that I was never in
finer health nor had more endurance
than since have used these marvellous
Pills."
Clergymen say they are good, Sena-

evidence as to the wonderful curative
properties of this Medicine, hundreds Of
