Each teamster pitches off his own
load. This makes crew of eight or
nine men, exclusive of the man who
tends the engine.
2. In cases where there is a short
age of teams the following method is
generally practiced: One man, with
three horses. cuts the corn; two men
load the wagons In the field; two
men, or boys, with teams, haul the
corn to the cutter; one man unloads
the wagons; one man feeds and one
man works in the silo. AS soon as
load arrives at the cutter the teamster
changes his team for an er,pty wagon
and goes back to the fieli after an
other load. When q wagon 70 unload
ed 1t is run out of the way by hand,
With this method boys who are not
strong enough to handle the green
corn can be utilized to drive the
teams. This method requires crew
OF six men and two boys, exclusive of
the engine tender

able and help is scarce. the following
arrangement of men aud teams is a
good one One man, with three
horses, runs the harvester In the
field four men with teams haul the
corn to the silo; one man feeds and
one spreads the corn in the silo. Low
trucks or wagons with racks suspend
ed below the axles should be used. SO
that the teamsters can put on their
own loads. This requires crew OF
seven men, besides the engineer.
The table below gives a comparison
of these three methods.

FOR REDUCTION OF FLESH.
Exercise That viii Bring About De.
sired Symmetry.

Massage can be of great use in the
reduction of the abdomen and hips.
The exercise about to be described is
highly recommended by one who has
had much experience in giving and
directing exercises for feshy reduc-
tion and the improvement of bodily
symmetry. When beginning it one
should be careful to get used to 1t
gradually, as it puts great strain
upon the muscles and is apt to make
one quite lame, the same as the first
horseback ride. One should be ex-
tended upon the floor supporting
oneself by one hand while the other
is placed upon the hip. While hold
ing this position raise the body grad
ually from the floor until the whole
weight is supported by the hands and
feet. 1t is easy to get the body from
the floor as'far as the knees, but to
bring it up to the full extent just
described is not easy at first. 1t
should be tried first on one side and
then on the other.
A good exercise for the reduction
of the abdomen is that of throwing
the hands above the head with the
palms outward, the arms extended
and the body thrown back as much
as possible, and then, bending for.
ward at the waist, keeping the knees
straight and trying to touch the floor
with the fingers. 1t is difficult to do
without bending the knees.
The following exercise Wis much
easier and is effective. One lies ex.
tended full length upon the floor. with
the feet together and the arms folded
upon the breast. Raise, first one leg,
stiffly extended, and then the other.
This will strengthen the muscles of
the lower extremities. The third
movement, which is simple, is to
bring the legs, kept closely together,
into position as nearly as possible
at right angles with the body.
1t takes some time to describe these
exercises. but after they have been
learned it will not take long to do
them; each should be repeated Ger.
tain number of times daily.
The great point in order to attain
beneficial results is to be faithful in
keeping them up persistently.
The Beaver herald. [volume] (Beaver, O.T. [Okla.]) 1895-1923, 1907-09-26

The difference between methods Is
in the arrangements for loading,
hauling and unloading. When there
is sufficient number of teams, the
teamsters do their own loading and
unloading When teams are scarce,
two leaders and one unloader are
needed; but boys may drive the teams
to and from the field.
A few years ago it was thought
necessary to ensilage corn in an i'm.
mature state in order to have 1t keep.
This made a sour silage with a strong
pungent odor The consensus of opin-
ion now favors letting the corn go
until the grain is fully matured. In
ordinary seasons there is period,
lasting but a few days, in which the
corn ears are ripe and the leaves and
stalks are green. This is the ideal
time for putting 1t in the silo. If the
corn is allowed to mature beyond this
stage. water should be added TO the
cut material at filling time to prevent
fire fanging' of the silage. The re-
suits of many chemical analyses show
that the food materials in the corn
plant increase very rapidly as the
plant approaches maturity, and do not
reach their maximum until it is fully
ripe. Most feeders prefer the silase
made from mature corn because It
contains less acid and possesses a
milder odor than it does when cut in
a greener condition.
Hauling green corn is heavy, tire
some work. and too much attention
can not be paid 20 details OF method

blower In which the cut corn Is forced
up through a tube by means of cur
rent of air The chief objection to
the blower machine is that 1t takes 80
much power to run 1t. While the
blower requires more power to op-
crate than does the slat carrier, very

carrier unless covered on top and
fitted with u return trough under

windy geather. At one place there
was a litter to the depth of half foot
about the silo that had blown out Of
the carrier This trouble is avoided by
the use of the blowers.
The blower pipe should stand as
nearly perpendicular as possible. In
enc case that was called to the
writer's attention a blower at first
proved unsatisfactory. The trouble
lay in having the cutter set too far
from the silo. with the pipe leaning
at an angle of 30 degrees from the

"A PRACTICAL TREATISE ON
THE FILLING OF SILOS
By Lyman Carrier Scientific Assistant, Farm
ment Investigations, Bureau of Plant
Industry

The methods employed by the diff
ferent farmers in filling their silos
varies greatly, no two being exactly
alike. With a few exceptions the dit
fereut methods may be classified in
three groups:
!. The most common practice is
to have one man with three horses on
corn harvester cutting corn in the
field: two men to load the wagons in
the field; three or four men with
teams, depending on the distance
from the field to the silo. to haul the
corn TO the cutter; one man TO run
the engine when steam is used for
power, and, occasionally, when gaso-
line engines are used. one man to
feed the cutter and one man in the
silo TO spread and tramp the silage.
