Cumberland, Wis, Jan. %, 1912
Mr.. E. ]. Wahl,
st. Paul, MINI. e
Dear Mr.. VAIL:
Your favor asking for a
statement in regard to my silo
purchased and erected in Au-
gust, 1911, by your company,
at hand. Before I purchased I
first saw and talked with men
who had had experience, also
looked into this question as to
wood, brick, hollow brick, SOL
i'd cement and those with air
Z space, those which stood out
side, unprotected, some with no
roof, (my own has a half roof
on) and two wooden ones which
had building erected around
them, not in a barn but just
around the silo, about two feet
between silo and building. I
found they all froze. I find
mine freezes too, but not any
more than any Of the above
mentioned ones. I find there is
no building Of any material that
will not freeze unless heated
artificially.
Now, as to silage. Ours is
as nice as can be found, except
the top, which had no covering,
no coarse hay, straw or: oats,
in fact nothing at all on it.
Feeding at the rate we have
been, we will have enough till
April 18th, and have hay to sell
if 1 want to, instead Of buy
ing as I did last year. To put
the whole thing as short as
}. possible-my silo has been a
comfort (knowing there is en-
ough for the stock) and will
pay for itself in less than two
years if silage is properly put
), in. My silo is the first one of
its kind in Wisconsin. We have
had 10 days when our Govern
ment thermometer registered
from 6 to 80 degrees below zero
so I think I have had a good
chance to test it.
Yours truly,
