SIL0 is A NATIONAL FACTOR
All Great Industries Depending on
Live Stock Are Advocating Use
of Huge Receptacle.
CBy A. L. HACKER,

- "a AH
The leading agricultural subject OF
the day is the silo, and it's coming is
of national importance. No subject is
receiving so much attention from the
experiment stations farm papers and
farmers Institutes. All the great in
dustries depending on live stock, such
as the stock yards, creameries, pack
ing houses and transportation COM
lpanies are advocating its use. 1t is
a conservation subject of great impor-
lance, for with it can be saved a large
part of our principal crop. Nearly 40
per cent. Of the food elements of the
corn crop of this country are now
being wasted. BY the use of the silo
this could be saved and by SO doing,
hundreds of millions of dollars could
be added to our national wealth. The
corn forage which annually goes to
waste in this country is often referred
to as the billion dollar waste" Is it
any wonder we are complaining of the
high cost of living?
In the past eleven years the great
stock industry of the United States in
comparison with u population, has
been showing a decline. This condi-
ton has been largely brought about
by the rise of price in all kinds Of

stock. This in turn has driven many
men out of the stock business, and dis
couraged others from going in. With
the silo the cost of producing stock
and stock products can be greatly
lowered. Experiments have shown
that by the use of the silo in place
of the old feeding methods, butter can
be produced from nine to ten cents
per pound cheaper and a saving made
on the production of beef from $3.50
to 81 per hundred pounds. AS the
largest part of our food comes from
live stock it is plain to see the rela-
ton of the silo to u national food
supply.
Silage can be made from nearly all
kinds of farm forage and is a good
and cheap ration for horses, cattle.
sheep, swine and chickens. 1t re
quires little storage space, is a labor
saving device, doubles the value OF
the corn crop, triples the stock carry
ing capacity of the land, restores the
fertility of the soil, and returns its
user annually one hundred per cent

CARING FOR YOUNG ALFALFA
Practice of PasturIng Crop During Fall
and Winter to Save Feed Bill
Is Serious Mistake.

(By o. o. CHURCHILL. Department Of
Agronorhy, Oklahoma Agricultural
College.)
Many people, on account of short
age of pasture and to say feed, pas
ture their alfalfa during the fall and
winter. This practice is harmful to
all alfalfa, whether it is'young or old.
No doubt it reduces the yields the
following season, although the reduc-
ton may be very slight if conditions
are favorable.
With young alfalfa the practice Is
very harmful. 1t reduces the vigor Of
the plant, reduces the yield very ma
terially the following years, and fire.
~quently kills out some of the young
plants at a time when they are not
very well developed. Fall seeded al
falfa should never be pastured during
the same fall and winter in which it
is seeded. The little feed which the
alfalfa will furnish during the winter
is far more than Offset by the decrease
in yield.
When young alfalfa receives a back
set it may require two or three years
for it to fully recover, and during all
of this time the yields are smaller
than they otherwise would be-. It
pays to give young alfalfa careful
treatment and to give it every oppor
tunity to make a good development.

SHEEP HELP ON MANY FARMS

1t would add to the revenue OF

weighing more than n hundred
pounds. Where possible it would sell
dom be practical to start with less
than SO ewes, and a larger number
would be better still. A flock OF q doz-
en- would require almost as much
care as so or 100. These range bred
grade Merinos should be bred to a
Dorset ram If possible.
The reason we recommend buying
range bred grade Merino eve is that
thousands of these are available,
while Dorsets are not to be had in
large numbers.
These fall or early winter lambs,
by good feeding and care can be made
to weigh 80 to 100 pounds by May I,
when they vii find a ready market
and will always be in demand. Such
lambs should bring from five dollars
upward.

CARE OF SETTING HEN
Nothing win DisIodge Perfectly
Hard Working Matron.
Box or Barrel Laid on Side, Painted
Inside With Carbolineum or Some
Other Good Lice Paint, Is
Suitable Nest.

(By PROF. JOHN WILLARD BOLTE.)
A setting hen is a perfectly respect
able hard working matron, suffering
from an acute attack of spring ever.
She will not work, she refuses to lay
or even talk about it, and she devel-
ops a very grabbed disposition IN q
remarkably short length of time. Seek
ing out some chosen nest she K
possession, by force, If necessary, ana
proceeds to occupy it for about 70
hours and 25 minutes every day. n
leaves it secretly and in silence, only
when food is necessary. Having sat
isfied her wants, she suddenly remem-
bers that unguarded nest, and makes
for it with great speed and confusion
1t matters not whether the nest con-
tains eggs or a doorknob, it is dear TO
her, and nothing will dislodge her.
her motherly longing is satisfied IN
a brood of little downy peppers. Inc
writer once Matched three successive
broods of chicks under the same hen,
the hen setting for rs consecutive
days, and coming off the nest reluc-
family and in good health at the end
of that time.
The best way to detect a broody
hen is to look through the nests after
lark and see whether there are any
hens on them. If so, they should eth
er be brought up or placed on some
worthless eggs in the Matching quar-
tiers, as they do harm in the regular
laying pens by partially incubatlng
eggs and fighting with all the other
hens.
Almost any concave nest, well lined
with hay, will do for setting a hen.
Take a box, or barrel laid on its side,
paint it inside with carbolineum or
some other good lice paint, and form
the nest cut of earth with two inches
of hay covering it.
Be sure to get the corners filled so
that the eggs cannot roll into them.
Have the edge of the box not oyer
three inches higher than the eggs, SO
that the hen will not jump on them.
Dust the hen with insect powder, place
her on the nest on some dummy eggs,
and cover her with another, ventilated
box. Let her off in "a hours, and If
she goes back again, it will be safe to
put good eggs under her.
Use an odd number of eggs, depend
ing upon the size of the hen and the
season. Thirteen in cold weather and
Is In warm, is about right for a
Plymouth Rock hen.
Keep whole corn and pure water at
hand and let the hen take care of her
self. The chicks usually begin to
hatch on the twenty-f1rst day. Let them
alone until the night of the twenty
second day. Then move her and the
chicks to a warm, dry coop and do
not feed the chicks until the twenty
fourth day.
1t is a good plan to set two hens
at the same time and give all Of the
chicks to one hen after they are
Matched.

Best Poultry Tonics.

Fresh air, sunshine and exercise ara
the best poultry tonics. But fresh air
does not mean drafts In the houses,
nor does sunshine call for exposure to
hot suns during the summer. The
houses should be 80 constructed that
fresh air can constantly be present to
drive out bad odors and purify the at
mosphere. The sunshine should be
able to reach every corner to destroy
any germs that might be lurking In
dampness. The fowls should exercise
by scratching that a good circulation
of the blood may be stimulated. The
above are the three best medicines In
the poultry Doctors art.
