discuss the benehcence of the s1lo, the
unsophisticated might gather that
about all that was necessary was the S1lO;
that it could be filled any time, with most
anything. Following that idea would bring
speedy decline in the high favor in which
it has come to be held by the American hus-
bandmen.
One cannot expect to get more out OF the
silo than he puts into 1t. That IS, should
it be filled with inferior feed, the silage will
be inferior. One can secure the best silage
only by using the best quality of forage. 1t
stands to reason that suitable crops cut at
the proper stage of development will make
the best silage.
There four crops that take precedence
as silage-makers in Kansas, and they are
corn, kafr, milo and "cane." Corn has long
been considered the king of silage crops,
and anyone who can reliably raise corn
year after year, need seek further, but
kafr, milo and "cane" also make excellent
silage. This is important to Kansas, for it
means that all portions of the state may
regularly produce silage crops every year.
With the full silo assured, one may engage
in the live stock industry without the fear
of that old bugaboo, shortage of feed.
In seeking to determine the comparative
value of corn, kafr and "cane" silage in the
rations of milk cows, experiments at the
Kansas station indicated that corn s1lage
slightly superior, a milk producer,
with kafir second, and cane silage third.
The animals seemed to gain in live weight
more readily, however, on cane S1lage,
which suggests that it contains more fat
tening nutrients than kafr or corn. With
a suitable grain ration, it is believed that
''cane" silage would be equal, ton for ton,
to corn or kafr. More protein and less fat
forming nutrients in the grain ration would
be the requirement.
Comparative Values of Silage.
In discussing these experiments in the
Boards recent biennial report, I. A. Bor-
man, one OF the best posted men in the
country on sorghums, their culture and feed
ing value, said:
Although the kafir and cane silage were
shown to be slightly less valuable than corn
silage, there are other factors that must be
considered, namely, yield and adaptability
to local conditions. Without doubt, the in
creased yield of cane and kafir per acre will
offset the slight increase in feeding value
obtained from corn silage. Kafir and cane
are dry-weather-resistant crops and can be
grown over wider territory than corn, and
from one-third to one-half more tonnage
per be obtained"
From these experiments and the results
obtained by dairymen and stockmen in all
portions there is no question to the value
of the sorghums as silage crops and farm
ers throughout the state may provide them
selves with an abundance of excellent silage-
making material. There is no excuse for
anyone going without silage if si1age is de-
sired.
