>lC does NOT pay TO devote nl&n prlceQ
land, for long periods, to pasturage and
the ! reduction IF hay. The land can
be put to more profitable use. In order,
therefore, that dairying may continue
profitable, instead OF depending, as in
the past wholly upon the pasture for
the chief foodsupply of their herds,
many of our farmers are turning to-
ward the silo as Attending a beneticient
solution OF the feed problem. It is
doubly beneticient in that 1t not only
does away with the necessity OF devot'
ing so much lang to pasture; but also,
by making available cheap supply Of
succulent and highly -reiished> food all
the year round, it deprives stall-feed-
ing of some OF its Objectionable feat
ures, while keeping the milk flow at
higher level. During the past two or
three years, more silos have been built
than in all previous years combined.
The more prosperous farmers are often
uspplied, not merely with one, but
with two good silos
The economic value of this method
of handling feed being generally recog-
pized, the only real obstacle to the gen.
eral introduction of the silo seem to
be the first cost of the structure and
of the machinery for filling it. More
stock can be kept and probably fed,
per acre, when ensilage is grown. then
by almost any other method of feeding.
Inc silo practically increases the
producing capacity Of the farm at least
10 per cent, and often more. A 160
acre farm with a silo will pruduce as
much revenue as one Of $50 acres
without. Therefore, the first cost OF
a sil7-like Of a dwelling house, a
barn or team should be considered
part of the initial investment; and, if
ones capital is limited, 1T is better to
buy farm smaller by ten per cent,
rather than dispense with silo. The
producing value Of sllo on $50 land
would be equal to that of twenty acres
added to the 160-acre farm. for 81, 600 ;
on 500 land, it would be 50, 600. This
is low estimate; for the stock carry
ing capacity of the farm will often be
increased fully 25 per cent by the add
ing of silo. AS compared with its
producing value, the cost Of construct
ing the silo is small. Round wooden
silos cost from 81 so to So. 90 per ton of
capacity; those of stone, brick or &C.
ment from ~ to 50. It has been shown
by actual experiment in Minnesota
that-working comparatively in the
purchase of materials. etc.-a number
of farmers in locality may erect silos
of 40 to $50 tons capacity, for about
$275.-Geo P. t1rout, University Farm.
