HINTS FOR FARMERS
Cor. Fodder save. Hay.


Although corn fodder is not consid
cred a complete food or equal to hay
yet it can be made to materially assist
In carrying the stock over the winter
by good management. On some farms
the practice is to stack the fodder and
straw and give the stock free access to
1t, but there are better methods Of
utilizing it. Every ounce of corn fod-
der or straw that is fed, especially
when properly prepared, is saving in
hay.
Some may object to feeding such
poor stuff on the ground that it con-
tains but little nutrition, but If grain
or ground food be used In connection
with it the bulky food will answer for
the purpose of distension and also fur
nish more or less nutriment. AS long
as the animals do not dislike the fod-
der and they gain flesh one -aeed have
no fear in regard to feeding it.
The manure, too, will be better than
when the material is t., be trampled
or slowly rotted. By passing such ma
terial through the animal the digestive
organs assist to reduce it and render it
fine, and every farmer knows that the
finer the condition OF the manure the
better it is.-Farm Progress.
