SILAGE ECONOMICAL FEED.

Corn silage is the cheapest green feed
that dairymen can use up to the time
the corn crop reaches the milk stage.
according to a recent report of the
director of the agricultural experiment
station. University of Wisconsin.
For number OF years the animal
husbandry and agricultural chemistry
departments have carried on tests to
determine the relative value of corn
silage and soiling crops as summer
feeds. AS regards milk and butter fat
production alone. the two feeds proved
of practically equal value.
However" observes the report, Isl
lage can be produced at less expense
than soiling crops, as 1t requires less
labor to pillow. fit and plant field Of
corn than to prepare and plant at diff
ferent times an equal area Of soiling
crops.
Corn silage is uniform in quality
throughout the year and Is well liked
by the cows. proving more palatable
than the early soiling crops. such as
green clover or peas and oats. Owing
TO the different climatic conditions
from season to season. 1t is. moreover.
difficult to provide succession Of soil
ing crops which will furnish the Wis
Sonsin farmer. without waste. an am
pie supply Of green food through the
summer.
ION farms where a sufficient number
of cows are kept. therefore. silage is
the most economical green feed for
summer up to the time when the corn
crop reaches the milk or roasting stage.
when. IL desired. the green corn can be
substituted for silage."

day or two after coloring. the Mcintosh
will drop unless picked promptly. while
Rome and some others may be allowed
to hang with impunity.
The manner of picking Is also Inn
portant- The picker who through I'M
due haste. carelessness or indifference
pulls off leaves and fruit spurs should
not be tolerated In the orchard. Not
only will the broken twigs break the
skin of the fruit and allow free access
to rot fungi. but the increased expense
required TO grade and pack such fruit
is an important item.
Whether pail. basket, picking apron
or bag is used by the picker is a matter
of personal preference and severe
bruising of the fruit with any OF these
is inexcusable-the mark of careless
and slovenly worker. When pals or
baskets are used the greatest danger
Of bruising comes In pouring the fruit
on the packing table. while with the
picking bag and apron the danger
comes from striking against the ladder
while ascending or descending.

One OF the best methods of improv-

Such paintings have been made on

lined with good trees, though. of course,
We should all agree further that TO
plant all country roads with ranks Of

impracticable. More important than
planting new trees is the preservation
