to utilize his soft corn to the best advantage
1t is worth investigating A silo should be
on every stock farm anyway, and if the
prospect of soft corn" influenced the
building of silo soft corn" should be
credited and another blessing in disguise be
chronicled AS stated before, one cannot
expect to take out of his silo any better feed
comparatively than he puts in it. But soft
corn" if properly taken care of and ensiled
will make large volume of feed that other
wise might prove of small value. At any
rate, SLIDING the soft corn" is probably the
best use to which such corn can be put and
the most profitable way it could be handled
In cutting crops for ensiling, the most de
sirabe length is variously estimated, but
ordinarily the shorter the better, enabling IA
more thorough mixture of the mass and
more compact settling The exclusion OF
air is the main point, and is absolutely nee
essary for well-preserved silage Perhaps
half-inch lengths might be about the aver
age.
There has been considerable said about
the time of filling, whether it should be
done quickly or, say, rather leisurely. En-
perience seems to indicate that either way
is quite satisfactory, the method adopted de
pending more on the farmers convenience
than anything else About the only point
found here for discussion is in the fact that
filled at intervals, the silage gradually set
ties, with the result that more feed is put in
Many contend, however, that the settling
through lack of extreme weight is not SO
uniform and compact, and for this reason it
is possible the silage may not keep in as
good condition as when filled without DELAY
At any rate many farmers like to hustle
the work through and have it finished
Extra help is needed on almost every farm
on such occasions, and it is not easy to as
semble at all times.
Silage is put up more cheaply, however,
when filling in large quantities. Where
to let it settle for week or ten
lays, possibly as much as fourth more
silage may be added in some cases. When
:wo or more silos are side by side, filling
alternately, in one one day, then the other
he next day, etc, giving each time to set
lie, is of course good plan. When left for
several days it will likely be found that the
op portion should be removed before re-
illing, as naturally little of the surface
ilage would be spoiled. A rather common
practice among many prominent silo users
S to fill for couple of days, tramping thor
'ughly, let it settle for day, and then
lnish the job on the fourth day.
Farmers May Cooperate.
Owing to the demands for additional la
'or, as we'll as for the necessary machinery
ONE system of cooperation might be
eadily and proftably evolved, especially in
hose districts where silos are numerous
through this plan the cost of equipment
nay be saved in the course of time and the
Expense of operating is reduced to bedrock.

uHoOPillotlSdtSu might gather tia
about all that was necessary was the silo
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 it. 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 are 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 no further, but
kair 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" siage in the
rations of milk COWS, experiments at the
was slightly SUPERIOR as a milk producer,
with kafr second, and "cane" silage third
The animals seemed to gain in live weight
more readily however, on cane" silage,
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, T. A. Bor-
man, one of the best posted men in the
country on sorghums their culture and feed
ing value, said:
although the kahr 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 kafr per acre will
offset the slight increase in feeding value
from corn siage Kahr and cane
are y-weather-resistant crops and can be
grown over wider territory than corn, and
from one-third to one-half more tonnage
per acre can be obtained
From these experiments and the results
by dairymen and stockmen in all
portions there is no question as to the value
OF the sorghums as silage crops, and farm
ers throughout the state may provide them
selves with an abundance of excellent siage-
making material There is no excuse for
anyone going without silage if silage is de-
sired.
Stage for Silage Harvest
At this season of the year the filling of
the silo is matter of general interest
