There are hundreds of tons of the
finest silage on earth in this county
1.-The present writing that was born
to blush unseen practically, as there
are few silos in which the fine fields
of fodder that now bedeck our farms,
will be saved but will waste on the
ground.
Every stock of corn in Stevens
county should be cut and put in
shocks and saved as it makes the best
feed on earth for stock in winter and
the country is blessed with our i'm
mense crop of it this year and it be-
comes nuisance to allow it to wither
and decay on the ground that has
produced it. In many states farmers
consider it good investment to en-
ploy help to cut and save their corn
fodder.
