PACKING SlLAGE.
Should Be Tramped Sufficiently to Ex'
cude the Air.
LPrepared by Kansas station.

prepared by Kansas StallonI
Perhaps the most important opera
ton in filing sllo is getting the silage
properly packed More silage is spoiled
by improper packing than by any other
cause controlled by the farmer. When
the silage Is not tramped sufficiently 10
exclude the air, spoiled silage results,
IT is known. too that the more the 81
lage is trampcd in the filling process
the less it settles afterward. When the
silage settles in the sio it tends TO
draw away from he wall. thus leav-
ing an air space, which results in
spoiled silage. The amount Of tramp
ing necessary depends upon 1he rate Of
filing. When n snail outfit is used
over several DAVIS the slow filing gives
more time for the silage to he trumped
ana The .siIage settles from day to day
With a large outfit, however, the silaGe
should be well tranfped, rs il goes III
more rapidly, and if not well tiqn1ped
win settle several feet SITTER The silo Is
fillcd The capacity OF The siIo, unless
rcilled. will thus be reduced, and a
large amount OF spoiled silage may re
suit With a small cutter two men in
tho Silo hre perhaps sufficient one to
carry the distributor and the other 20
do the trampmg. With larger outfits
two or three men in addition TO the
men rIrrJing the distributor are need.
I'd. If convenient the men may be
changed from the Silo To the field and
the monetony Of the work be relieved.
in case Of any short delay in filing the
entire force can he used in rampns
the Silage.
An important factor in packing silaee
is the manner Of distributing it in the
silo. The most common method is TO
build the silage about two feet high
around the walls and tramp this we'll;
then fill up the center and tramp it
equally, ana then again build up
around the walls, BY this means the
silaSe will settle without pulling away
from the wall. At the top the siiage
can he rounded off by being made
higher in the center and within "A few
days viii settle till nearly level
Tramping is more important in the up
per half ana top of the silo because
this siaGe will have less weight on it
to force it down.
