When Crops should be
Harvested for Silage.

Corn is ready to harvest for
filling the silo about the same
time it is ready for harvesting
the fodder; the grains should
be we'll dented and glazed and
a few of the lower leaves turn
ed brown. If the corn is cut
too green the silage will be
sour, and the feeding value
decreased while, on the other
hand, if the corn is too ripe it
will not pack we'll i'll the silo,
a large amount of water will
be necessary to insure its
keeping quality, and there is
danger of dry rot which lowers
the feeding value.
Sorghum should be harvest
ed for the silo while the seed
are in the dough stage. Like
corn, if it is left in the field
until it has become too dry,
the silage will contain a large
amount of indigestible mate
rial, and will not make a good
quality of silage.
The time of harvesting the
crop for filling the silo that is,
the stage in which the crops
should be harvested must be
given great consideration if a
good quality of silage is to be
obtained.
Pea vines, soy beans, and
other hay crops should be har-
vested for the silo at the same
time as for making hay that
is, when in full bloom and
few of the heads are ripe. w.

pertinent Stations. L. S. L.

One of this country's largest
bankers made the statement not
long ago that the small-town
banker IS i'll position to render his
community most valuable service
if he will recognize and take adyar-
tage of the opportunity by doing
his full part in community wei
fare work.
His statement elicted an eX-
preston from one of Our small
town bankers to the effect that a
large majority small-town banks
really do more TO retard COmmuni-
ty welfare and development than
they to do promote them. This is
most lamentable condition even
if only partially correct as stated.

banks institutions for community
