SYSTEM FOR FILLING SIL0
HOW TO CUT AND PACK THE SILL.
AoE-co-oPERATloN PAYS.
BY C. Il. Eekles, Professor Of Dairy
Husbandry, College Of AsrleuI-
ture, University of Missouri.

When corn is used for silage the en-
tire plant, including the ear, is cut in
to about one-half inch lengths, using
large power cutter for the purpose.
A large cutter which permits filing
the silo rapidly is most economical
OF labor It is advisable for three or
four farmers located close together to
buy silage cutter together By help
ing each other they are able to I'LL the
silos for the group with the minimum
expense.
The cutters used to Hll a medium
sized silo have capacity of from 10
to 10 tons per hour. From four to
six teams are required to haul the corn
from the field, depending on the dis
tance and other conditions. The corn
may be cut in the field with a corn
binder If one is at hand, or may be
cut by hand and thrown into piles.
The cost Of filling q silo has been
found TO vary from fifty cents to one
dollar a ton, depending on the machin-
cry used, the yield of corn per acre,
the distance hauled, and how the
work is organized and handled. With
good organization and machinery the
cost should not be more than seventy
cents per ton.
The silage settles about eight feet
in a silo thirty feet high and for this
reason, where rapid filling is prac-
ticed, the silo will not be full after it
has settled unless 1t is filed a second
time. If it is convenient, allow the
machine to stand two or three days
for the silage to settle, then refill and
most of the capacity will be made use
Of
Where no special form OF distributor
is used in the sllo. there is a tendency
for the heavier pieces Of ears to drop
in one place while the leaves and
stalks are thrown a greater distance
In order to keep the silage OF uni
| form composition the portion richer in
/ grain should be distributed over the
surface Of the silo as the filling pro
| crosses.
It is especially Important to make
/ sure that the silage is packed closely
/ around the walls since this is where
/ the air gets in and the spelling takes
/ place. The wall must be smooth to
make as little friction as possible in
! settling. While the silo is being filled,
one man at least and preferably two,
| should work in the silo, distributing
the silage and packing it. The outside
next 10 the wall should be kept higher
| .han the center and constantly
tramped There is no necessity for
tramping in the middle, as it will take
care Of itself.
When the filing is completed the top
should be leyeled off and tramped
down as thoroughly as possible over
the entire surface. The upper layer
should be thoroughly wet with water
in some way. This can be done by
running the water into the blower as
the last few tons are run in, or by
putting II into the silo after the filling
is completed, The idea is to form an
air tight layer over the top to prevent
the sllage from spelling.
Some advocate the use Of cut straw
thoroughly wet on top Of the silage
II has also been suggested that aftel
the silage is thoroughly wet down
oats be sown on the top. These vii
sprout soon and assist in sealing tl.t
silo more quickly.

ECONOMY IN THE BEST FEED
Nothing Gained by Purchasing Sup
plies for the Poultry Because
They Are Called Cheap.

No matter what food is given the
fowls be sure It is the very best that
can be procured. II does not pay to
buy poor grain or poultry food of any
kind. Some people think It is eco
nomical to buy poultry supplies be-
cause they are cheap.
The best is none too good, is a
rule as applicable hera as anywhere
else. Only the very best grains should
be sanctioned. Only the choicest
brand Of beef scraps, fine cut clover,
alfalfa, and other foods OF this sort
should be used. There is nothing that
