Mature Corn For EnsiIage.

Mature Corn For EnsiIage.
1t is an irreparable 'blunder to. f1ll
the silo with immature corn. In times
past the use of ensilage Of this sort
has in many cases disgusted men with
the whole silo proposition. In the first
place, such ensilage does not have as
great feeding value as that made from
mature corn, and in the second place 1t
is apt to throw stock completely out
Of condition.
Corn contains the highest percentage
Of nutrients when it reaches q point
where It can be said to be mature.
This does not mean that it is ready
for cribbing, but it does mean that
the grain must be firm. and in all
probability the lower leaves will be
turning yellow. If the fodder is al
lowed to get too dry the ensilage will
not be sufficiently heavy to pack well.
and that is why the crop should be
cut after grain has become we'll dent.
ed, but before the upper and middle
leaves are wilted. Rather than: to
make the mistake, Of putting up corn
that is immature one had better use
water while filing the silo with fod.
der that has become somewhat dried
out. @ 45y,.s@ ,,..
We caution those who are putting
up ensilage for the first time especial.
" to guard against the storing Of the
crop while It is in condition to de.
velop too large a percentage Of organ.

Starting Thursday, November 26th
the manager of the Dickinson Opera
house announces Annette Kellermann

time in this city. Briefly: There

reels, showing 500 scenes that last
fully two hours and for which Csc

no longer a mere panorama Of pic

spoken drama. The lovely form Of
Annette Kellerman in "Neptune's

CLARK-RICHEL

On Thursday morning at II o'clock
at the E. H. Knapp home, occurred
the marriage of Miss Marguerite
Jane Richel to William Clark. AS
the wedding march was played by
Mrs. Geo. Hosfeld the bride entered
the parlor on the arm of her father,
VIM. Richel, who gave her away. Mrs.
r. H. Knapp was matron of honor
and Harry Clark of Hanover, N. D.,
attended the groom as best man.
The Episcopalian service was used
with Rev. A. c. Hacke officiating.
Throughout the ceremony Mrs. Hos
field played several beautiful selec-
tions on the piano.
The bride wore beautiful dress
of white chiffon over white messa-
line and carried bouquet of brides
roses. The groom was attired in con-
ventional black.
Following the ceremony sumptu-
GUS wedding dinner was served at the
Knapp home with only relatives and
a few close friends present. About
the middle of the afternoon the
couple were whisked away to Belfield
in an auto before the friends fully
realized what was up.
The bride has made her home with
her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Richel,
south Of Belield, for the past seven
years, having come with them from
Northfeld, Mimi, when they moved
to this country at that time. She re-
ceived her education in the schools of

ton well worth while. The ashes may
he applied as top dressing to grass
land and to pastures, where they fos-
ter the growth Of clover and desirable
grasses, aiding them to crowd out in
ferior kinds and weeds. For corn and
roots ashes are also helpful, but be.
cause of their lime content they are
not SO good for potatoes.
1t is essential, however, that the
farmer do not permit his ashes to
leach. In many households it has been
customary In the past for housewives
to save the ashes and leach out the
potash for use in making soap. Obvi-
ously If the potash is leached out the
ashes have lost their chief usefulness
to the land.
For agricultural purposes the ashes
from different species Of trees vary
considerably in value. Thus the ashes
from such soft woods as pine contain
less phosphorus and potash than those
from the harder woods. like oak. elm,
maple and hickory. The ashes of
twigs and small branches are also
worth more than the yield from heart
wood taken from the middle Of an old
tree. In general it may be said that
the smaller and younger the wood that
is burned the better the ashes.
This means that by bestowing lit
tie care upon his wood lot the farmer
can obtain for himself the fuel that
will be most useful to him, while-at
the same time its removal benefits in
stead of injuring his woods. 1t is Of
ten the case that very little, If any,
discrimination Is used when cutting
down the trees for fuel. More judg-
ment in this respect would actually
benefit the timber that is left standing,
while supplying the household with all
the wood that it needs. Again. it is
sheer extravaganza to allow stock to
pasture in woods. They destroy and
retard young growth, pack down: the
soil and expose the roots Of the trees.
BY taking care Of his trees as he would
Of any other crop the farmer in the end
will gain much more than by allowing
cattle and other stock to feed upon 1t
at will.
