Hit Fence Post.

Geo. P. Johnston hasn't succeed
ed yet in getting his motorcycle en-
tirely gentle for him to ride and
hence gets some hard bumps occa-
sionally. Tuesday evening it pulled
hard on the bits as he was turning
into the Hospital grounds and
wouldn't either stop or turn quick
enough, but ran close enough to the
iron gate post to jam his right leg
against the post After rolling fif-
teen or twenty feet George stopped
out in the grass until some good
Samaritans brought him home in a
surrey. Fortunately the broncho
only gave him a badly bruised leg
this time and he is able to hop
around with the aid of crutches.-

Wheat as A Feed.

For lattening stock wheat has
10 per cent less value as a feed
than has corn but for growing stock
wheat has the greater value as 1t
more nearly supplies all parts of
the animal body. 1t has been found
that the meat is better proportioned
as to at and lean by feeding a com
bination of wheat and corn, aud
that a buskel of wheat fed mixed
with a bushel of corn will 60 farth-
er than two bushels of either one
alone.
Even small or immature grains OF
wheat make an excellent feed but
bring a low price on the market
and it is a tsry roor economy to
sell these along with cheat in
wheat. If the wheat is well screen
ed, these impurities and small grains
may be kept at home for feed and
it will be found that the screened
wheat will commonly bring more

one thus gets is clear grain. Wheat
or screenings should be ground fO9

If hogs are now being fed. and if
they have excess to clover or ten.
der grass Of any sort, and equal
parts of wheat and corn be fec,
made into slop, it will be found
that great economy will result.
Damaged wheat or that having a
very low market value may be very
profitable to use for feed, almost
more so than to sell for a low price.
Screenings from a few hundred
bushels of the average wheat will
often pay for a good farming mill
and this wheat has to be screened
at the mills and as it is the mills
that makes the screenings clear as

Mr.. Editor: l see by your paper
that you folks think you have the
laugh on me, and like to poke fun
at my way of farming; but / believe
in saving all the steps and work
can. For instance, l left my pillow
and drag out in the field last fall,
and it is now just where will use
it first this spring; and l did not
have any extra steps bringing it in
and taking it cut again.
My moving machine and rake
are in the corner of the field l
moved last. The old stump fence
is quite high and is a pretty good
shelter for them. / expect to NOW
that field first this year. so it will be
right handy; and then, if l had TAX
en- them in the barn the chickens
would have roasted on them this
winter.
l don't believe in having any
more buildings than l have to, for

Three RumeIy Oil Pull Tractors Pulling Fifty A-nc blows

Rain, which had been ia 3 at in
tervals, then put an END le test;
but it was estimated that from ten to
fifteen plows could have been added
had the trials continued. Even as it
was, the monster outfit plowed at the
rate of IA acres per hour, or an acre
every four and quarter minutes.
This Worlds Record was made in
twenty acre field, the huge outfit
turning handily and proving that the
smaller outfits are we'll adapted to
the smaller fields. The plows, which
were of the flexible frame type, adap-
ted themselves perfectly to the uneven
ground, to the surprise and gratifca-
tion of the college authorities. They
were furnished by the Oliver Chilled
plow Co., of South Bend, Ind, and
the tractors by another Hoosier con-
Germ, the M. Rumely Co., of La Porte,
Indiana.

The worlds blowing record was
shattered recently in a test made by
the Farm Mechanics Department of
Purdue University, Lafayette, Ind.
Tests were made of different sizes of
engines and gang plows to see what
outfit would be best adapted to Indi-
ana farms. A 15 Tractive, 30 Brake
horsepower OilPull Tractor and six
pillow gang were decided upon as the
best suited for Corn Belt farms, and
this outfit was adopted by the Uni
versity for demonstration purposes.
AS climax to the series of tests,
three 3o-6O horsepower Rumely Oil
Pull Tractors were assembled to see
if they could be hitched together sat
isfactorily like three horses. One five
pillow section after another was added
until the three engines were pulling
fifty 14-inch plows, cutting swath
50 feet 4 inches wide, to depth of
approximately five to five and a half
inches.

hauling a long distance or to rainy
weather when the loading was more
difficult and the sand and dirt on the
corn made it very difficult to keep the
knives on the silage cutter in good
working condition.
To this statement may be added the
additional facts that an average acre
of corn will produce about IL tons of
silage, or more, and that it costs
about $14 to produce an acre of corn
including rent If these items are
considered with the cost of cutting
the corn and filling the silo, the cost
per ton approximates about So.
Audubon County journal. (Exira, Iowa) 1884-1993, 1912-04-04
TheCost of Silage

Farmers who are thinking about
building silo this coming summer are
asking what it costs to produce a ton
of silage.
The Iowa Agricultural Experiment
station, in bulletin prepared by Prof.
w. ]. Kennedy, gives this answer to
that question::
The cost of filling the silo (cutting
the corn in the field, hauling it, put
ting it through the silage cutter,
tramping, leveling and covering the
silo) varies from 40c to $1.00 per ton.
It depends on many factors. First,
the distance the corn must be hauled
from field to silo. Second, the kind of
weather, as it will cost about SO per
cent. more to fill silo during wet and
broken weather than during dry, clear
weather. Third, the kind of machinery
used. The cutter must be strong
we'll built machine with a wide feed
mouth because at times it is put to
severe tests. The motor power must
be ample; fifteen horsepower engine
is much more satisfactory than a ten
where rapid filling is practiced. Fourth,
a we'll organized crew of men will fill
a silo much cheaper than where or
ganization is lacking. The machinery
should be kept going at full blast all
of the time.
The following statement, furnished
by a very successful dairy farmer
gives fair idea of the cost of filling
the silo: 1--WE hire an extra man or
two and make long days with the regu-
lar help during the filling season. We
have our own outfit, silo cutter and en-
CINE (18 horse gasoline) also corn

This crew will put in from S5 to 90
tons per day, thus it costs around 60
to 65 cents per ton to fill the silo"
The above statement is fair one.
