WINTER FEED BEING
STORED IN SILOS


completed by the farmers and
stockmen of this vicinity in time
to be utilized the coming winter.
The absolute certainty of having
on hand definite amount of the
best stock food that can be OBJ.
tained for the fatteniug of cattle.
sheep and hogs is now required by
the feeder and the silo is the store
house which provides against the
storms and rigorous weather of
winter. Ensilage, on account of
the nutritive qualities and compar-
atively small expense of putting it
up, is the last word in economic
stock feeding and the feeder who
has few hundred tons of it not
only winters his stuff, but puts
it in prime condition for market.
This week a journal representa-.
tive visited the ranches of O. w.
and l., B. Sylvester, east of Monte
Vista, and witnessed the process of
filling silos. On each of these
places three new silos have been
constructed this year of the steel
and iron double-waIl type. On
the l.. B. Sylvester ranch there
are now four silos of $50 tons ca
pacity each. These are filled with
mixed feed, which was planted
in the proportion of 30 pounds
peas, 20 pounds wheat, 20 pounds
barley and 10 pounds oats to the
acre. 1t required approximately
320 acres to yield the feed for the
four silos. The feed is cut and
hauled on racks to the silo. Here
it is fed into an ensilage cutter
which is provided with large fan
and the chopped grain, vines, Rus
sian thistles, weeds and all is liter
ally blown through large pipe up
over the top and down into the
silo, where it is solidly tramped
down by herd of goats driven by
Mexican. When the silo is filled
the goats are lowered to the ground
with ropes. 1t requires about eight
days of steady running to fill a
650-ton silo. When the feed is
dry, small stream of water is
used to supply the moisture neces-
sary for the chemical change in
producing ensilage. This change
is effected within a few days after
feed is put into a silo by the high
degree of heat which obtains in an
alright enclosure and the feed is
thus preserved fer an indefinite
time so long as the air does not
reach it.
Electric power is used on the l.
b. ranch for operating the ensilage
cutter, sheep shearing apparatus,
etc. The current is supplied by
the Monte Vista Power company.
