BENEFIT BY USING CONCRETE
Farmer Adds Both Comfort and Safe
ty, Besides Saving Money-Cem-
ent Is Not Large Item.
(By WALTER B. LEUTZ-,

Safety, economy and utility are the
prime considerations in silo building
and on all of these points farmers are
finding themselves gamers from the
use of concrete. Concrete structures
are much safer and in the long run
are more economical The original
cost is about the same as for silos Of
other materials if the farmer is able
to do the work with his regular force.
When the durability and lessened risk
are considered it is seen that the con-
crete construction is economical in
almost all circumstances. The con-
crete silo is sanitary and preserves
the fodder in satisfactory way. This
fact has been demonstrated by gov
eminent tests.
Farmers who have not studied the
subject of concrete construction will
do well to take it up. In most cases
the material will be cheaper and
handler than lumber. 1t is of high
value for walks, dairy floors, milk
houses, watering troughs and steps,
as well as for general architectural
work.
Where the farmer is able to supply
the sand and gravel without much
expense and has time to perform the
labor of construction, or at least to

HOW MUCH WILL SILO HOLD?
Amount Can Be Closely Calculated
Provided Number and Kind of
Animals Are Known.
OBy A. d WILSON,

(By A. d WILSON,
The amount of silage required and
the size of Silo needed to hold it can
be quite closely calculated provided
the number and kind Of animals to be
fed from it are known before build
ing.
An average COW or beef animal may
be fed about thirty-five pounds of sill
age per day and the usual period
during which silage is used in this
latitude will be about 210 days. Large
animals or those that are being fat
tened may consume considerably
more than thirty-five pounds per day,
but this has been found a fam aver
age
In a silo of ordinary depth, the
average weight Of the silage is about
forty pounds per cubic foot. Near the
top Of the silo, however, where the
pressure is not great, it will weigh
only twenty-five pounds per cubic foot
while at the bottom of a thirty-dve
foot silo it may weigh sixty pounds.
Taking these averages, i COW eats
thirty-five pounds Of ensilage in a
day, she will eat thirty-five fortieths,
or seven-eighths, of cubic foot per
day, and with this as basis it is easy
to determine the number Of cubic feet
Of ensilage required to feed cow or
any number of cows throughout the
season. The diameter Of the silo
must be such that the stock on hand
can use one or two inches of silage
off the top each day during the win
ter and at least three inches per day
when summer feeding Of silage Is to
be practiced. This is necessary to
keep the silage from spelling.
A silo ten feet in diameter is adapt
ed to feeding ten mature cattle. One
twelve feet in diameter will feed fif-
teen head, and one fourteen feet in
diameter will meet the needs Of TWEEN
ty head; but If there are thirty or
more. cows to feed, sixteen-foot silo
should be erected. These silos should
be thirty or forty feet, or even more
In height.

SOME GOOD POULTRY DON'TS
Particular Attention Should Be Paid
to Drinking Fountains and
Character of Feed

Don't let the drinking fountain sit
in the sun, for if you do your poultry
will surely get diseased.
Don't feed sour and unwholesome
food, because If you do the fowls will
have indigestion and liver trouble
Don't forget to provide shade for
the poultry, the scorching hot sun
will be sure to make the hens sick.
Don't keep the males in the same
yards with the females. If you have
no separate pen, sell them to the
butcher.
Don't forget to supply grit and oy-
ster shells. The hens need them as
badly during summer as they do in
the winter.
Don't forget to bury any fowl that
chances to die. Disease is spread
through a whole flock by allowing a
decaying carcass to lie around.
Don't wait till fall to sell all sur
plus stock. Now is the best and
most profitable time.

SPRAYS TO DESTROY WEEDS

By JULIUS ERDMAN, Colorado Agri-

It is a rather tedious process, and
hard on tools to remove weeds or
grass from walks by hoeing or cutting
them out between the stones, but
there are a number Of chemicals or
sprays which can be used with good
success.
1. Salt. Take one pound of salt to
one gallon of water, boil and apply
while still hot, or dry salt may be
used and then watered in; but this
will color the walk more or less and
is not quite SO effective.
2. Crude carbolic acid, one-half
ounce of the liquid to one gallon Of
water will also destroy ants.
8. Sulphuric acid, four-ffths ounce
of the acid to one gallon of water
Best applied with a wooden pail.

Ingredients:
Two pounds of good broiling fish.
Half a tablespoonful of butter.
One lemon.
Half a bunch of parsley.
