A PLACE TO KEEP THE SEED
CORN.

Messrs. Editors: One rainy day,
early in September, 1909, the writer
brought his hammer, saw, etc., into
the Madam's summer kitchen and
began to saw and pound away at a
great rate. Pretty soon the door
opened and some one asked what l
was doing in her kitchen. Without
looking up l said as pleasantly as
possible, Just making a rack on
which to store our seed corn" All
l heard was "Well!!" Then l was all

stalks in the field, cutting them up
and blowing them under; but never
burn them nor pull fodder. On the
other hand. If moore feed is needed,
why not save the entire plant instead
OF just the leaves? The whole plant
can be saved for about half its feed
ing value, while it costs the full feed
ing value of the fodder to save the
leaves alone.
From 40 to so per cent of the feed
ing value of the whole corn plant
is in the leaves, shucks and stalks,
which constitute the slower, while
from so to 60 per cent Of the feed
ing value Of the whole plant is in the
ears. or the feeding value Of the
stover, about 10 per cent is in the
shucks, 80 per cent in the leaves,
and 60 per cent in the stalks.
AS labor becomes more scarce and
high-priced, to pull fodder, or har-
vest any part of the crop by hand,
Will be too expensive. When that
times comes. and it has already come
in some sections, it will be found
that the easiest way to harvest the
corn crop will be to cut it by machin-
cry and either put it in a silo or shred
and husk it by machinery.
Fodder Pulling Luxury.
The man who pulls fodder; or de-
ponds upon corn fodder for his long
forage, is the fellow who is always
out of forage along in April and May;
but who ever heard of a man who
saves the entire corn crop being out
OF roughage? We have heard it
stated that corn stover was mighty
poor feed" 1t is not as good as some
other kinds OF forage. We may even
admit that we have seen inferior corn
stover that was really, mighty poor
feed but even that was a whole

lot better than none at all, and much
more satisfactory than cottonseed
hulls at IS or $40 ton.
Don't pull corn fodder, it is too ex-
pensive luxury for the average
farmer; but if you need the feed,
harvest the whole crop and get three
times as much feed at very little ex-
ira cost.
The progressive farmer and southern farm gazette. (Starkville, Miss.) 1910-1920, 1910-09-03

of the cost of pulling corn fodder has
any doubt as TO that practice being
Improbable. We think the corn
crop ought to be put into silo, or IL
that can not be done, cut and cured
for forage. Our reasons for this
opinion are that we need feed, that
corn stover can be obtained for less
than half its feeding value compared
with the price of the other feeds
which we buy. and that our lands
need more stable manure But the
habit OF wasting our corn slower,
which contains from one-third to one
half the feeding value of the corn
crop. has become so firmly fixed in
our agricultural practice that it will
be many years before the corn crop
Is put into silos or cut and shocked
and cured for forage.
The first step toward the proper
harvesting of the corn crop is to in
duce farmers to stop the expensive
practice OF fodder pulling This prac-
tice exists practically no where else
except in the South. We do not
know the reason for the practice
here. but possibly 1t is because hay
Is always scarce and corn fodder,
when well cured, il good forage.
Why IL Does Not Pay to Pull Fodder.
There are two reasons why 1t does
not pay TO pull corn fodder either of
which SHOULD alone be sufficient to
stop the practice. Cd When the
fodder is pulled sufficiently early to
be of the greatest feeding value. the
removal OF the leaves from the plant
decreases the yield OF corn nearly
enough TO pay for the feedsvalue OF
the forage obtained. ca II costs
as much to pull and save corn fodder
ut the present prices of labor as the
fodder is worth after II Is saved. and
II the same time. money and energy
that are put into fodder pulling were
put into the growing OF hay. double
the quantity OF feed would be Sc
cured.
To the boys who are raising an
acre OF corn for the Corn Club prize
we wish 10 say, don't pull the fod-
der. but II you will not take our add
vice. then we ask that you pull the
fodder only from every other row,
leaving half the fodder unpulled.
When gathering time comes gather
the corn from the rows where the
fodder was pulled. separately, and
weigh the corn, and then gather the
unpulled rows and weigh the corn
from these
Experiments made in practically
all the Southern States indicate that
with corn yielding 80 bushels to the
acre the loss from pulling the fodder
is not far from Ave bushels to the
acre. II may vary from practically
no loss at all up to 20 or IS per cent,
depending probably on the state OF
maturity at the time the fodder is
pulled. II the corn is green when
the leaves are pulled, the yield in
weight OF ears will be greatly lessen
ed; whereas. II the corn is nearly
ripe the loss will be very little. The
corn grains are largely made.up OF
starch and this can only be made in
the green leaves of the plants. hence,
II the leaves are pulled before the
corn is fully made the yield must be
cut of

A Big Bunch
Of Resolutions

GRAND JUNCTION. Aug. 10.-The
third days session of the State Labor
Federation opened this morning with
another big bunch OF resolutions. One
OF them favorably reported is likely
to cause fight. This demands that

the opening for another fight.
Resolutions were introduced in this
mornings session by delegates from
the United Mine Workers OF America
denouncing County Judge Sullivan and
Sheriff Schrader of Mesa county for
the part they took in the strike OF
miners at the Cameo mine several
months ago. Judge Sullivan declared
the coercion law unconstitutional when
the unions tried to prosecute the coal
operators for exciting the families oil
