CLEMSON EXTENSION WORK

To produce milk at low cost pas
turage or its equivalent is necessary
To take the place of pasturage two
methods of getting green food can be
resorted to. The first being to grow
such crops as rye, wheat, oats, sor
ghum, and corn and cut these at the
proper time and feed to the COWS. The
second method is to put up green food
in such manner that it will keep
green the entire year and be ready to
feed at anyseason. To keep green
food all the year it is necessary to
keep it air tight. The most convenient
form in which to do this is by use of
the silo The silo may be made of
brick, concrete, or wood-whchever Is
most convenient to the builder. How
to build and what to use will be ex-
planned in detail if application is made
to the Dairy Division of Clemson Col
lege. The requirements for any silo
being that when filled it will be air
Ii6hI anu nave Bledt enOuBu ueDlH
SO that the pressure of the silage Will
drive out all the air. The material
such as corn and sorghum of which
most of the silage is made, must be
put into the silo green. If at all dry.
water must be added, for unless 1t
stays damp the silo 1t will spoil.
Two advantages of the silo is that
1t gives supply OF green food the
entire year and enables the farmer
to put up a large amount of food In
a very small space. The cost of the
silo will average about 81 to 50 per
ton capacity. The cost of putting the
corn or sorghum into the silo, count
ing all dost of growing, will vary from
81 to "a per ton. No dairyman can
afford to be without silo.

July 1.

Nicted of manslaughter was sentenced
to eight years Imprisonment. There
was a change of venue in this case
from LaureDs county to Greenwood
Four times Hunter was tried in
