STORAGE OF THE ROOT CROPS

Easy Of construotlon-Pt AIss
Found Satisfactory.

OBy V. .. DELwICHE. wisconsinJ
Root crops are valuable for stock
feeding. both for their content OF di.
gestible nutrients ana In supplying
succulent feed for the winter months.
Under good conditions a large amount
OF feed per acre can be grown from
roots, for this reason-they are use
ful on small farms where the amount
OF land under cultivation is small.
Roots can probably be grown for
less than 81 per ton under favorable
conditions. The cost OF production
per acre Is approximately s35 per
acre.
Mangels give the heaviest yield per
acre. with rutabagas and turnips q
close second. and carrots third.
Carrots and rutabagas are about
equal In per cent. OF digestible nutri.
ents. and are higher in this respect
than either mangels or turnips.
Turnips and rutabagas do not keep
80 well az some other roots. They
should be fed In the fall and early
winter In the order named.
Mangels and carrots keep well over
winter when properly stored.
The best place TO store roots is in q
root cellar near where they are to be
led. Such a cellar may be a part OF a
barn. basement. or Il may be built
conveniently near to the stock barn.
In most places the root house can be
built most economically OF concrete.
Ordinarily cement Is the only material
that has to be purchased. The gravel
and sand are usually available at no
great distance on most farms. While
the temperature in a root house should
never fall to the freezing point, II
should be at a low point for best re-
suits In keeping roots.
When no cellar IL available, roots
may be stored In pits. For fall and
early winter feeding. they need not be
covered 10 any great depth. The roots
are put In a conioal pile. about four
feet In diameter on a bed OF clean
straw. then covered with a layer OF
two inches of long straw. Clean rye
straw Is preferred for this purpose
The straw at the apex OF the pile is
made TO form a chimney five or six
inches In diameter for ventilation.
