SIX CAUSES OF POOR SILAGE AND
HOW TO PREVENT THEM.

The preserving of green feed in the
silo is made possible through the
formation of a slight amount of acid
in the absence of air. Any condition
which will influence these two fac
tors; namely, acidity and the pres
ence of air will materially affect the
value of the silage as feed.
l. Mouldy silage throughout the
whole silo is due to insufficient

cured that the animals are anxious
for it-yes, and so fragrant that they
are ravenous for it. Greediness of
appetite Is great factor in econom-
ical production of live stock products.
Any feed that will so regulate the
animal as to keep it in good health
and condition, will add much to the
final results. Linseed meal, corn
silage and roots are all examples of
feeds that are greatly relished by our
live stock. Of the various palatable
feeds, corn silage is doubtless the
cheapest and most effective. Roots,
while serving an excellent purpose,
require about twice as much labor to
produce. AS we urge the production
of alfalfa and clover as seasonable
foods, we would urge the production
and use of corn silage as palatable
feed. Corn silage is not only palata-
BILE but it is an economical feed to
store for the production of total nutri-

The following is an extract from
an address, important Factors in
the Selection of Our Feeding Stufs, !"
given by Prof. D. FL. Otis before the
Indiana dairymen at their 23rd an
nual meeting:
"The relish with which an animal
eats it's feed has much to do with the
effect of that feed on the body. 1t
regulates the amount eaten and when
properly assimilated, the more the
animal eats, the larger amount of
products it turns out. By supplying
an animal with food that it eats read
lily, it will help it to eat its other
food better and in larger amounts.
A palatable food stimulates the di-
gestive juices and the supposed good
of many Of our stock foods, rests In
the palatabIeness that they may i'm
part to other foods. 1t is important
to preserve this quality as far as pos
sible in all foods. Hay should be so

THE SILO AS AN ECONOMIZER
OF SPACE.
One ton of mixed hay occupies 400
cubic feet.
Eight tons of corn silage occupy
400 cubic feet.
One ton of mixed hay contains
l, 742 pounds of dry matter.
Three tons of corn silage contain
4. 224 pounds of dry matter.
One ton of mixed hay contains $50
pounds of digestible dry matter.
Eight tons of corn silage contain
1850 pounds of digestible dry matter.
The silo not only furnishes econom-
ical storage but it enables the farmer
to handle his crop cheaper than by
any other method. Mr.. G. L. Hill, of
Rosedale, Wisconsin, reports that it
cost him from 80 to 80 cents ton to
put his corn crop in the silo, or about
100 per acre. The same acre OF
corn he figures would yield $50 has.

to husk, which, with the cost Of cut
ting. stacking, shredding and grind
ing, would be about double what it
costs to put the same crop in the silo.
Silage is greatly relished by the
COWS and causes glossy appearance
of the hair, similar to pasture grass.
1t is convenient to feed, and is avail
able summer or winter.
During the latter part of the past
summer, Wisconsin suffered severe
drouth. The pastures on which the
herd of the Wisconsin Agricultural
College was grazing were cut short
and it became necessary to feed corn
silage. Never In the history OF the
herd has the flow of milk kept up as
we'll as during this drouth. The
summer silo is bound to become an
increasingly important factor in sue
cessful dairying. :"
