BUILD A SILo OF SOME KIND

A great many farmers make reso.
lutions during the winter time that
they will not go through another win
ter without silage to feed the stock.
When the corn stalks are in the fields
covered with snow, the feed for the
stock is gettin short, the cows are los
ing in milk, and the young stock in
flesh, such resolutions come easy; but
when spring and summer come on
cows and young stock are doing well
in the pasture. and when there are
good prospects for a big crop yield,
there is a tendency to forget about the
resolution made during the winter
the building of a silo, says Prof.
Larsen Of the State College.
Do not let rosy prospects for a good
crop delay or prevent any one from
building a silo. Build a silo of some
kind. If we have a good crop the silo
will help to make more of 1t. II we
have a small crop it is still more i'm
portant that we preserve some good
winter feed for the stock.
1t Is not a question of the kind of
silo. No one will be prepared to say
which is the best silo. There is no
n silo that has all Of the good points.
But any silo has enough good points
to make 1t a paying investment. Be-
sides. 1t is so much more comfortable
to take al of cows and stock with
silos. The writer now has ITS tons
Of silage left. This will be fed to the
cows during the summer time. There
will be no pasture for the cows. That
will be plowed up to be put into corr
to all more silos.-and more silage will
make Don for still more cows. Those
who build a silo and keep cows and
young stock will never regret 1t.
