ADVANTAGES OF GOOD sILo
TO Number of Head of Animals
to Avoid Spelling.

by PROF. W. NJ EATON. Connecticut
Experiment Station)
One CT the greatest advantages of
the silo is that it can be made to tide
over the time when there is a serious
diminution of green pasture feed dur
ing July and August The question
of tie size of silo becomes very i'm
porrant During the warmest part of
the year silage spoils very rapidly
where it comes in contact with air.
Spoiled silage is dangerous sub
stance to feed. Besides tainting the
milk and upsetting the digestion of
the COW, it often becomes poisonous.
To avoid this, it is necessary to feed
off each day from one and half to
two inches. If this is done the silage
does not have time to change or fer
ment much. A silo Is feet In diameter
will feed AZ animals; 16 feet In di-
ameter 33 animals, and II feet will
feed 20 animals. If the herd is large
enough, two silos of different di-
ameters are great economic con-
venience. For the winter feed use the
large diameter, and for summer the
small one. Another advantage is in
filling One will be settling while the
other is being filed and one third
more silage can be put in both. The
tail, narrow silo is better than the
broad low one. The loss is much less.
Taking all things into consideration,
1t is evident that a round, wooden
stave silo Is the best. And wooden
silo, II taken care of as 1t always
should be, can be made to last as long
as a wooden building Certain proc
esses can be applies to the wood. such
as soaking it in some wood preserva-
tive or applying asphaltum and creo-
sote substances to the bottom of the
slaves for a few feet, keeping the
other outside areas well painted.
These are factors which would deter
mine the lasting qualities OF a silo.
The size of the silo should be
adapted to the size of the herd. A
tall silo with a rather narrow di-
ameter is preferable Silage is pre-
served best with the least loss in a

to slash them.
Beet greens are extremely edible

Two of the best acreage-saving

If you intend to allow that second

Alfalfa.

Alfalfa is one Of the best of all
forage plants. both for the land and
for stock food. It requires a certain
species cf bacteria on the roots TO
cause the plants to grow and this is
not present in all soils. but must be
applied in soil that comes from field
where alfalfa or sweet clover (melilo-
.tusl is growing well The same bac-
terra live on the roots of these two
plants. It is good for orchards If cut
down and the hay allowed to rot on
the ground Alfalfa or any OF the
