forms the bulk Of the assets of the
banks, where, in time of stress,
those assets may be easily and
without loss transformed into cash.
establishment of from eight to

DAIRY PROSPERITY
BY USE OF A SIL0
Dairymen Should Take Advant-
age Of Every Opportunity to
Reduce His Expenses.
(By J. E. wORMAN.)

If dairy farmer were told that
he could roll silver dollars down a
hill and then pick up two dollars
for every one he rolled down. and this
statement was verified by some OF
his neighbors, and hundreds OF 9TH
er dairy farmers in the country, that
farmer would stay up nights to roll
the dollars.
But when told that he could double
the profits by the use of the silo he
becomes very Indifferent and keeps
on in the same old rut, feeding dry
feed, wasting nearly half of his corn
crop and doing a lot of unnecessary
work.
In these days of close competition
dairymen should be ready to take ad-
vantage of every opportunity to re-
duce the cost Of production, and it
will be found that it is easier if the
proper methods are used to do that
than to raise the selling price Of the
dairy product. The results are the
same; large net profit.
In the corn plant about 40 per cent

and go per cent in the ear. When che
ear alone is fed nearly half of the
corn crop is wasted.
Where the dry stalks are fed at
least half of them remain uneaten,
while if stored in the silo the loss is
almost nothing.
Every dairyman knows that cows
will do their best on fresh June pas
ture. The grass is succulent and pal,
atable and the conditions for max
imum milk flow are ideal. These
conditions, however, do not last very
long.
J The silo comes as near to supplying
the ideal conditions as anything thai
| can be found, and it is available every
day in the year. 1t provides uni
| form feed for every one of the Il
! months.
! Highly sensitive dairy cows resent
| any sudden change or violent altera
ion in feed, and will show 1t by {
decreased milk flow. The change

1t Is held by most farmers that the
brood SOW must be kept In thin flesh
Following this rule, which is good in
a way, many farmers allow the sows
an insufficient amount Of feed, and
hence both SOW and pigs suffer.
writes w. H. Underwood In the Iowa
Homestead. Also the young SOW far
rows before she ts mature in size, and
through light feeding she never at
tains the size and breeding capacity
that she would had she been given
larger amounts of feed during her
growing period.
The SOW for several we'll understood
reasons should not be kept too fat, es-
pecially in narrowing time. She has.
however, large demands placed upon
her, and hence requires large
amounts Of feed to sustain normal

pleted in strength. Frequently she Is
absolutely exhausted, and requires
many weeks to regain flesh and
strength, II it is possible to regain the
loss. There is no doubt but that this
frequent flesh and vitality weakening
impairs the health and value of the
animal Were she kept in good round
flesh at all times there is no question
but that she would live longer and be
more productive in advanced years.
The young SOW often grows until
after her second or third litter OF
pigs. Then is the period when matern-
ity tells on an animal most If to the
physical strain Of giving birth to pigs
and sucking them is added the stunt
ing effect of too light feeding the
young SOW cannot possibly attain her
highest development. This Will not
only affect her future earning power,
but will also affect the profits in her
pigs. They will to some extent inherit
her undersize and weakness, and the
future stock will therefore be small
and poor
If the young sow is kept In good
round flesh until after full maturity
she will have chance to develop into
a large mother animal, and be able to
transmit her size and strong vitaht
to her offspring. If she carries an
abundance of flesh and some fat near
ly equal to that of the prime finished
hog for market she will have sur
plus for the draining weeks OF matern-
ity and not become SO poor at any
time that her system Is materially
weakened.
It is much easier to maintain SOW
in good flesh than to restore it after
it has been lost, and it is better IN
every way for the animal. A good SOW
may be fully half the herd in giving
quality to the pigs If she is given SUI
ficient feed and care to make mani
fest her full powers.

from fall pasture to dry feed is always
followed by the shrinkage In the
milk.
In changing from the pasture to
the silage is not SO great, and
often the cows increase the flow when
started on silage.
Silage is not complete ration for
a dairy cow. Silage is high In carbo-
hydrates and some concentrates or
roughage with high protein content
should be fed with it; such as wheat
bran. oil meal, cottonseed meal or
alfalfa or clover hay.
At the Illinois experiment station
it is reported that a selected herd of
dairy cows were being maintained on
alfalfa hay and corn silage alone.
The cows are in excellent condition,
profit.
Every dairyman should make an
effort to grow alfalfa and put up sill
age. 1t is great combination and all
home grown. This constant buying of
milk feed is what cuts down the
profits, and should be eliminated as
far as possible.
When it is considered that corn
can be grown so easily and in every
section of the country, 1t stands at
the head of the list of forage crops
for this purpose
The yield in feeding value and the
convenience of handling makes it the
best silage CROP
The yield will range from 10 to
20 tons per acre on good soil. and
even higher yields have been re-
ported. At Is tons per acre, one
acre will furnish roughage enough for
two cows for every day in the year.
or four cows during feeding period
OF six months. What other crop will
do that?
! Other crops can be used, such as
sorghum or cow peas In combina-
ton with either sorghum or corn. The
cow peas improve the silage, for it
adds protein, but the yield is small
and difficult to harvest.

vitality. She needs much feed during
pregnancy for the development of the
unborn pigs and for her own vital
needs.
After the pigs are born, during the
sucking period, the sow requires an
extra large amount OF nutritious feed
in order to furnish full flow Of milk
for the little pigs and maintain her
own flesh.
Too often the SOW at the close Of the
sucking period becomes poor and de-

President to Confer
On Trust Legislation

President Wilson will probably hold a
conference Wednesday morning with
Democratic members of the House Iu-
dietary Committee regarding antitrust
legislation.
From present indications a message
wi llbe read by him to Congress early
next week, although 50 far he has not
asked the leaders of both branches TO
arrange for a joint session.
Despite the growing tendency among
conservative members of the two
branches to forestall trust legislation
until next December, the President
is said to have expressed the view
that he Is pledged both by the party
platform and by agreements made
with different members during the
currency and tariff fights to seek tho
legislation immediately.
Chairman Clayton, of the Judiciary
Committee, stated today that he. with
congressman Carlin of Virginia. Floyd
Of Arkansas. and Webb of North Car
Ulina, expected to visit the White
House tomorrow for general con-
ference on the trust legislative pro-
gram. lie said the three tentative
antitrust bills drafted would not be
introduced until after several confer
enCes at the White House and with
Senators and Department of Justice
heads interested in the subject.

MILITIA HEADS HERE
FOR ARMY CONFAB
State Officers Oppose Bill Pro-

Volunteer Army.

Members of militia organizations
from all parts Of the country are in
Washington as delegates TO a meeting
of the executive committee of the
National Guard Association. While
here they. will confer with army Off
GERS on pending Legislation affecting
the National Guard of the country.
Today the delegates went to Annapolis
to visit the Naval Academy, after pay
ing their respects to Secretary Garrison.
Opposition to the Hay bill, providing
for the organization OF a volunteer army
in case of war, was voiced at a meeting
of the adjutants general of thirty States
at a conference with the executive COM
mittee at the New Willard Monday
night. The chief objection was that
there was no provision to give the militia
prior right of enlistment, and its cnem-
bers would be compelled to enlist as
individuals. The adjutants general also
went on record as favoring the Garrl-
son plan of calling on guardsmen to
give a pledge to serve in the event OF
a foreign war.
The national board for the promotion
Of rifle practice will continue it's meet
ingS until Wednesday evening to discuss
