SILO SHOULD BE REGARDED
AS NECESSITY ON STOCK FARM
Huge Receptacle Is No Longer Experiment and Is
Valuable to Man Who Breeds Stock Dairy
man-Sage Very Materially Decreases
Cost of Putting Pound Of Beef
Onto Feeding

We have been laboring in season
and out of season to induce farmers
to build silos. The silo is no longer
an experiment 1t has been used by
dairymen with success for thirty
years. 1t was for long time supposed
that it could only be used in dairying,
says the Wallace Farmer. We have
found out now that 1t is almost as val
liable to the man who grows stock as
to the man who milks COWS. We are
finding out that silage very materially
decreases the cost of putting a pound
of beef onto feeding steer. We have
found out that it is good for the eve,
for the brood sows, and for young
stock of all kinds as well as for dairy
cattle. The only animal on the place
to which it is not safe to feed it is the
horse; just why we do not know. 1t is
perhaps entirely safe if of good quail
ity, but dangerous if moldy.
We are finding out still more about
silage, namely, that by using a sum-
mer silo, one about half the size of the
winter one. we can bridge over the
droughts, which come in every coun-
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1911-07-13

try in the civilized world at some sea-
son of the year. With us the most
dangerous time is in July and August
which are usually droughty periods.
when the grass is short and flies are
bad. We are finding out that by
having a summer silo we can provide
pasture out of the silo until the rains
come in the fall.
Some of the readers may shake
their heads at this, but we are telling
them agricultural gospel truth. They
may say: While we often have these
dry periods in July and August, we do
not always have them. Some years
we have excellent pastures. True, but
your silage will keep almost as well
as the fruit your wife keeps over from
year of abundance to year of want.
Last year we fed on one of the farms
belonging to the Wallace family silage
that was two years old. Apparently it
was just as good as the year it was
made.
Why do we talk about it now? Be-
cause, If you are going to have silo
this fall for either winter or summer
use, you ought to be thinking about
it; not about the building of it or the
cost Of it, although it is worthy of
thought, but where you will plant
your corn to nece%sitate the least haul
ing and diminish the expense; about
what kind Of silage you want, whether
rich with corn or scant in corn. You
can determine that by the thickness
Of planting. II you want silage rich
in corn to fatten steers, you want to
plant it as you do for the market-for
the maximum Of ears; but if you want
1t to feed to the dairy COWS and want
large yield of stock with small grain
yield, you must plant it thick.
The main reason we are talking
about it now is because to put up
silo and use it economically you want
The Washburn times. [volume] (Washburn, Wis.) 1896-1976, 1911-07-13

to enlist the cooperation on your
neighbors. The same silage cutter
and the same power will answer for
two neighbors anyhow, and frequently
three, but not more. Have you not
couple of neighbors who would be ben
Gifted by having silo? If they are
not convinced of this, can you not get
them to convince themselves by in
vestigating it? Then can you not ar
range to cooperate in buying a cut
ter, and, what is quite as important,
in filling the seperate silos? Can you
not agree to plant an early corn and
a later variety?
Suppose you cannot fill one mans
silo before it is dry; you can easily
remedy that by putting in water. We
have done it and it works finely. You
can even take the corn that stands in
the field ready for husking and make
good silage out of it if you put in
water enough; or you can plant some
sorghum and corn, and let the album
dance of moisture in the sorghum
make for the deficiency in the corn.
All these things are worth thinking

Coat and Dress Sets,

Some of the most attractive coat
and dress sets, consisting of sailor
collar and large turnback cuffs, are
shown in white mousseline or plain
Swiss, with no further elaboration than
a hemstitched hem. This follows the
strong French vogue for similar ef-
fects in large berthas and collars that
are used on dressy gowns.
Hemstitching, by the way, is IA
vorite feature on French gowns and
accessories of almost every kind of
fabric, and can be used with excellent
advantage on neckwear. Where hem
stitching cannot be conveniently in
troduced narrow beading and yelling
are used instead.

FRENCH MILK
POWDER PROCESS
Article Produced Found by AnaIy
sis to Contain All of Con-
stituents of MIR
Except Water.

The processes currently employed
for making milk powder are based
upon desiccation by heat. In pro-
cess recently devised in France by Lee
comte and Lainville the action of cold
IS substituted for that of heat. The
milk is poured into vessels similar to
those which are used for producing
blocks of artificial Ice, and Is cooled
to a few degrees below the freezing
point (about 285 deg. F.). Suitable
precautions are taken to prevent the
water of the milk from freezing in a
solid mass and to cause it to assume
the form of fine snow. The CONCEALED
milk is then placed in a centrifugal
separator which revolves very rapidly.
The snow crystals remain In the ma
chine while the other parts OF the
milk are expelled in the form of the
