low in the use of the pit sllo Rnlcn
should be mentioned.
1. Do not put the silo below the
ground water line. The water Will
come in and turn the ensilage black
and lessen it's feeding value if it does
not destroy the ensilage altogether.
2. There must be some provision
for lifting the ensilage out at feeding
time. This should be kept in mind
from the start. Usually the apparatus
that is used to lift the earth out of the
pit is later used to hoist the ensilage.
8. The carbonic acid gas. The pit
silo no doubt would have come into
general use long before it has, had 1t
not been for a fear of poisonous gas.
This, known technically as carbonic
acid gas, has appeared for ages past
in old wells and mines as the damp.
It is sometimes spoken of as dead
air." Traces of this gas exist in the
air at all times. "This gas may be
produced by direct decomposition if
many carbonates (foods) by heat"
It is one-half heavier than air. This
explains, briefly, the causes for its
settling in quantities over highly
heated mass of freshly cut ensilage. A
good test for it's presence in harmful
quantities is to note it's effect on a
chicken or lighted lantern lowered
into the pit. At filling time, start the
| cutter minute or two before de
scending. With this precaution at time
of filling, continual use after the silt
is opened for feeding and with tot
ventilation, the trouble is eliminated

ADVANTAGES OF THE PIT sll q
FOR FARMERS.

1. The low cost of construction is
probably the greatest advantage. The
actual cost of the silos visited in North
Dakota was about $3.50 per ton ca
pacity. This includes all labor and
materials. There was one notable ex-
ception where an inside form was u.s.
ed. The cost in this case was nearly
$500 per ton capacity. Reports from
owners of pit silos in Kansas and Ne.
braska show a range in cost Of from
4S to 80 cents, averaging 81 cents per
ton or $58.88 for a 14x30 silo. -.
2. Ease of Construction. It is pos
sible for any farmer, who knows how
to mix concrete mortar, to build his
own silo. Professional help is not re
quired. .,s..a " r
3. Can be Built in the Winter Time
The greater part of the work can BIZ
done during the winter months wher
there is little other work to do.
4. It is Frost Proof. One of thu
drawbacks of the above ground silo /!
that it is quite impossible to proven
it's freezing. Very little freezing will
take place in pit silo. Such as Their,
is will be at the surface and will de
pend upon the protection afforded b,
the silo roof.
5. It is Permanent. A pit silo vel
built is indestructible.
