Java.s Teak Forests.

Teak forests in Java cover 1,4s0,000
acres. and. as the area reforested Is
two and half times as large as the
area felled In a given time, this mag
nifeent stock OF timber is continual
ly increasing. A pest OF the Java teak
plantation is alang grass Qmperata
arundinacae). In order to prevent the
incursion OF this plant, as hoeing is
too expensive, the foresters SOW le-
guminous plant, Leucena glauca, be-
tween the rows Of teak seedlings. This
chokes the alang, keeps the soil clean
and enriches the soil in humus and nj
trogen. and ultimately disappears with
the increase of the forest cover.

| ground silos. A fair sample OF the
reports is that of farmer in eastern
Colorado. He had no money but by
exchanging work was able to put In a
pit silo. His forage crops were badly
dried up but he added water as he
filled and a fair quality OF silage was
produced. The farmer sold cream all
winter from his silage-fed cows, sell
ing enough to pay the family expenses.
Several OF his neigisbors who had
more cows, but no silage. did not have
enough milk and butter for family use.

OF farmers.
We have had only one complaint
against the pit silo. That was from
Shawnee, where pit silo was dug in
wet ground. The cement plastering
was too thin and water seeped in from
the outside and spoiled the silage. Pit
silos are especially adapted to the
dry farming districts where the soil
IL dry TO good depth. "A pit siio can
be used anywhere In the United States
provided that in wet places the wall is
made thick enough and tight enough
to keep out the water from the oat-
side. a community in Iowa has used
pit silos for years, a farmer In Central
Illinois and another in Mississippi
have used pit silos and found them
satisfactory in every respect.
During the past year the pit slo has
brought about an entire change in the
plans of the dry land farmers through
out the dry farming districts served
by the Rock ISLAND lines. The pit silo
has shown these farmers how to Sc.

Every western farm should have one

who raises or feeds stick will find the
silo indispensable. In communities
where there is little stock, If the farm
ers will generally put In silos, they
will find that cattlemen with large
herds will come to their communities

feed it. There is a large amount OF
forage on most farms that is wasted
