Sbs SiIo for Dairymen.

This is the time Of year when
the dairyman or dairy farmers,
who owns silo likes to talk
about silage. Good silage comes
as near being June pasture in
January, as any feed with which
the dairyman is familiar. Its
succulent or juicy nature es-
pecially fit it for stimulating the
flow, and keeping the COW in vig-
orous health.
Probably the most important
rule in the profitable dairy is to
keep the cows milk flowing as
freely as possible after the flow
has once been started by parturi-
ton or calf-birth. To do this
demands right feeding and good
care. Silage is almost necessary
to right feeding. Silsge is a
cheap feed to put up, and valu-
able to use. 1t is grown on the
farm. This fact is of importance
in this day of high priced mill
feeds.
Read what a few Missouri
dairymen have recently said
about silos and silage.
Messrs. j. r. White & Son near
Aurora, Missouri, say: "We
consider silsge one OF the best
feeds we ever used to keep up the
milk flow in winter. Since we
began feeding silage we have
never had a COW off feed and we
are feeding COW all she will
eat"
Mr.. John Hosmer, Prop. Of the
well-known Hosmer farm near
Marshfield, Missouri, has this to
say: "Have silo by all means.
If intending to get into the dairy
business and don't plan a silo,
stay out. II dairying and are not
figuring on a silo, get out. For
in either case, the modern dairy
methods of the fellow who has
and uses the silo will put you
out"
Shepard Brothers Of Huges-
vile, Missouri, say this: "A
silo is one of the very best things
! a man can invest his money in if
he is in the dairy business. You
can get more feed for less money
out OF a silo than any other way
we know Of"
Hon. P. P. Lewis, Crescent,
Missouri, recently said: 81 have
used silage continuously for the
past six years and am thoroughly
con vinced that it is not only the
cheapest feed a farmer can pro-
duce but because OF its succulence
is a great help in the digestion Of
other feeds" H. E. MCNATT,

Missouri.
