success. An important article by him
in the Journal of the Franklin institute
concludes as follows:
"While these several factors, rever-
beration, interference and echo, in an
auditorium at all complicated are
themselves complicated, nevertheless
they are capable of an exact solution,
or, at least, of a solution as accurate
as are the architects plans in advance
of construction. And it is entirely pos
sible to calculate in advance of con-
struction whether or not an auditorium
will be good, and, if not, to determine
the factors contributing to its poor
acoustics and a method for their cor

FOR REMOVING SILAGE
Description of Devices in Use for
That Purpose.
Overhead Feed Carrier Is Advisable
Where SIo Is Adjacent to Feed
Yard-Much Depends on Num-
Der of Stock to Be Fed.
(BY L. w. CHASE.l

From two to three inches Of silage
should be removed from the entire
surface Of the silo daily during the
summer months and at least half of
this amount in the winter. In the
above-ground silos the silage may be
dug loose with a silage fork and al
lowed to fall down through the chute
to the ground, where it may be loaded
into the cart or carriers and fed where
desired; or it may be dropped directly
into a cart, carrier, or wagon and
taken to the stock.
If the silo is adjacent to the barn
and there is smooth way from silo
to feed manger, simple silage cart
is the most convenient device for
The Parker post., 1915-05-01

taking the silage to the stock The
cart can be left beneath the silo
chute and filled from above without
reshoveling the silage. Loose silage
weighs about 1876 pounds per cubic
foot, and this should be given con-
sideration when building cart for
a definite capacity.
More often than otherwise the silo
stands either in or adjacent to the
feed yard, in which case there is very
seldom a smooth way from silo to
hunks. An overhead feed carrier is
then generally advisable. This de-
pends upon the number of stock to be
fed Such a carrier may easily be ar.
ranged. If the yards are small a
swing track may be attached to the
silo and the silage distributed to sew
eral feed hunks.
When several carloads of stock are
being fed silage, the most convenient
scheme is to throw the feed into a
wagon and distribute it to the feed
hunks with a team
Some sort of hosting device should
be used in pit and semipit silos.
Where the pit is more than ten feet
deep, hand hoists and power hoists
are being used for this purpose. The
simplest hoist is that of the bucket
raised hand over hand, but this re-
quires one person in the pit and an
other above ground. A better scheme
and one which is practical where the
silo is located in the barn between the
managers, is to obtain several baskets
and equip them with stiff balls, then
use them as follows: Fill the baskets
and place them in the silo convenient
for raising, climb out of the silo, and
by means of a hook on a rope, hook
a basket of silage to it and hoist it
out. After the basket is emptied,
drop it back into the silo, release the
hook, and hook another basket.
A homemade hosting device for
semipit silos and which can be adapted
to pit silos as we'll, consists of three
inch pipe carrying a wooden wheel and
two drums. An old milk can filled
with scrap iron is used as a counter.
weight. It should be slightly lighter
than the weight of the cart and the
silage.
A horsepower hosting device is
easily used for silos entirely below
ground. These silos have an opening
