TWO TYPES OF SILO

(By c. A. Hutton, Division of Exten.
sion, University of Tennessee.)
The two types of silos best adapted
for use in Tennessee are the cheap,
temporary silo built of wood, and the
permanent type, or solid wall, concrete
silo. For farmer who wishes a cheap
silo, there is nothing better than the
Tennessee wood-hoop type. This is
built of 1"x4" fine flooring, which
should be of good quality heart
pine, free from knots and sap, match
ed, planned, and tongued and grooved.
The hoops are made OF 15"x4" green
white oak, or green elm boards. They
should be bent around a form and
made four-ply thick The 1"x4" slaves
are set upright inside of these hoops.
This makes the cheapest and best
type of wood silo, and one of the
easiest to build The average cost of
such a silo is $1O0 per ton capacity,
where all the material is purchased
and all the labor hired.
For permanent silo there is moth.
ing better nor cheaper for Tennessee
farmers than concrete. They can be
built for an average cost of $3.50 to
$500 per ton capacity, and if properly
will lal4 indefinitely. They
should be bui1J OF goou material, with
q solid wall, six inches thick, properly
and made smooth and slick
on the inside
If properly constructed, a concrete
silo will preserve silage absolutely,
as we'll as any other kind of silo, and
should not cost any more than the
patented wood type. There is posi-
lively no excuse for a Tennessee farm.

No tillage operation of the garden
is more important than hoeing, and
none is so badly done. Plow under

thorough preparation with pillow and
disc with spike-tooth harrow and
planker or in small gardens with
spading fork and rake; use the best of
seed and plant at the right time, at the
right depth, and cultivate regularly
and well. All these preparations will
not take the place of good hoeing.
Keep the hoe sharp. Begin using 1t

the back of the hoe, making it dust

the soil will crumble, but do not wait
until it is dry. Hoe often. Hoeing
lets air into the SOIL and air is as
necessary as moisture for vigorous
root growth. Fine hoeing makes of /
the surface a mulch that checks the |
escape of moisture while admitting the i

the greatest depth admissible, and one

the buds burst in spring is the
time to spray for scale insects; such
as the oyster shell and the San Jose
scale. April is the tine to make the
first spraying for codling moth and
curcnlio, for fruit scab, blotch, and
rot. Cooling moth is the worm that
gets into apples; curculio is the peach

best be controlled by spraying thor

two to three pounds to the barrel, and
applying with strong force, so that
the spray will be forced into the
blossom end of the little apple, and
among the hairs Of the peach.
The rets, scabs, and other fungus
diseases of orchard fruit can be kept
in check by spraying with self-boiled
line-sulpnur solution. For small
orchards it is cheapest and most con-
yenient to buy the prepared lime-sul.

and hardware stores. Ii should be di.

The crop was thick and dense from

grew tall, with little forage below the

When harvest time came 1t was pos.

The highest yields can not be had by

DAIRY BUSINESS LUCRATIVE
Many Farmers Are Turning Their At.

Source of Ready Income and Soil
Improvement.
(By C. A. Hutton, Division of Exten.

(By c. A. Hutton, Division of Exten,
sion, University of Tennessee.)
Tennessee farmers are learning
more and more the necessity of d.
versifed farming and the keeping Of
more live stock on their farms. A
great many are turning their attention
to the dairy COW as a source of ready
income and a means of soil improve
ment.
The general interest in dairying has
caused a widespread interest In the
building Of creameries over the state.
Especially is this true In West Tonnes
see, where the depressed cotton mar
kets arc causing farmers to look for
something besides cotton for a source
of income. The prevailing idea in a
great many communities, il few
farmers should decide to get into the
dairy business, Is that they should
build a creamery. While q wsll-man-
aged, successful creamery does afford
an excellent market for cream, yet
many dairymen In this state have bet
ter markets afforded them by city milk
plants and in cream plants, than most
creameries can ever hope to afford.
The most essential requirement fo
a successful creamery is a sufficient
supply of cream. The product from at
least four hundred COWS should be
available, and they should be located
within a radius Of not more than ten
miles Of the creamery, or shipping
point. In some communities the roads
are in such poor condition that il is
not practical to deliver cream during
the winter.
A great amount Of excitement has
been created over the state by the
professional creamery promoter whose
sole object is 10 sell creamery outfit
These promoters get the confidence OF
ho farmers and usually succeed in
selling a plant at about two prices

The month of March Is the most ia.
vorable time for killing San Jose scale,
but the work of spraying mushbe done
before the fruit blossoms open, as the
concentrated lime-sulphur solution,
which is the best scale remedy, is so
strong that 1t will kill the bloom. II
can be used with perfect safety even
when the peach buds are pink, pro.
vided the flowers are not open.
Spray thoroughly. To reach every
part OF the tree, it is best to pruno
well before spraying, being especially
careful to head back the small limbs
that project beyond the general aver
age Of the crown.
If the trees are badly infested with
scale, they should be "dehorned," or
cut back very severely. Peach trees
may be headed back by cutting of
branches three inches or more In di.
