SUMMARY

Harvesting corn as silage save!
from 35 to 40 per cent of the CROP
that would otherwise be wasted.
Silage adds palatableness to the
ration.
Silage adds succulency to the ra-
ton.
SiIage serves to keep the digestive
tracts of animals in good condition.
Silage replaces high priced hay.
Silage serves to cheaper the ration.
When silage is fed, more feed is
eaten, hence more manure.
The man who feeds silage uses
a manure spreader,
The feeding of sllage means more
intelligence in feeding operations..s
The feeding of siIage results in
more int lligence in other farm OPP
eratiOns.
The man who feeds silage will
feed wish it concentrates rich in
protein, and leguminous hay of some
kind. Hence, not only more ma
nute, but q better quality.
The man who leeds concentrates
and leguminous hay with silage is
apt to try to grow legumes in the
rotation Hence, a better and more
productive soil,
Silage is a good feed for dairy COWS.
Beef can be produced more eco
nomically when silage forms part
of the ration,
Silage is a good feed for calves
and stocker cattle.
Stage is a good feed for breeding
cattle.
SiIage is a good feed for fattening
lambs.
Stage is a good feed as q part rs.
ton for breeding ewes if fed intelii-
gently
Silage can be fed successfully as
a part ration for horses,
Silage may be fed as a condition
er toswine in general, and as a part
ration to old brood sows.
Silaga mixed with wheat and po-
tatces, equal parts, and boiled in
water maFes a good ration for
poultry.
SiIage takes up less room in 8tor-
age than either hav or corn fodder.
Our gIeat-grandfathers strip
ped" the corn, our grandfathers
topped" it, our fathers cut and
shocked it," but we 'silo" it.
A silo is badge of honor on any
mans farm.

Interest in the use and value of
the silo is growing and the best way
to get reliable information is to get
the expressions of those who have
used silos and are in position to
know from experience of their ad-
vantages and disadvantages.
Below we give the expressions Of
a number of farmers who have used
silos and their observations. Also
final summary of the reports.
This is timely because now is the
time to plan the crop to fill the silo
and the information will be especial,

sijering the matter of a silo this

was had. The Ekalaka orchestra
went out and furnished the music
for the packed house. Some 26

Little Talks on Diversified Farming
BY J. {. TAYLOR.


Fall rye when seeded early:
from Aug. 1st to 18th and not
later than Sept. lst. makes eA-
celent fall and spring pasture.
J. A. Hawks who lives II miles
south of Wihaux has a splendid
crop of rye this year. of which
he saws: Last year seeded
two fields of rye. one Sept. 1st
and one Sept. 18th. The early
seeded field was not fenced and
about 80 head of range cattle
grazed on it all fall. It was
grazed and tramped off so close
that one would hardly believe
there ever had been any or, %
seeded. Nevertheless it came on
this spring and made better
crop than the late seeded field.
It will stand more hardship in
the way of close grazing, severe
freezing and drouth than anv
crop | know of. Ground and lu
diciously fed it is an excellent
! hog feed.'
