| Farmers of Wisconsin are being
warned against the use of frozen silage
by J. L. Tormey of the College of Ag-
riculture of the University of Wiscon-
sin. The unusually cold weather this
winter has frozen silage in almost
every silo and in some cases consider
able trouble has followed when this
feed has been given to the stock.
Sheep usually fall victims to frozen sill
age more readily than catule. One
man lost over half dozen sheep in one
night.
mo bad results occur when the sill
age is fed after being thawed,' says
Mr.. Tormey. at must be remember
ed, however, that after thawing, the
silage will mold readily and so must be
fed almost Immediately. During cold
weather it is wise to keep the edges of
the silage in the silo somewhat lower
than the center. A good way to thaw
out the frozen material is to cover it
with silage that is not frozen. Some
cover the silage in the silo with a
blanket. Another way to thaw it is to
fill the silage cart and let it stand in a
warm place over night. Some people
hang lighted lantern in the silo to
keep the frost out
