The German people have surprises
the world. They have demonstrated
their ability as fighters on both land

tions their proves or ingenuity, in
equipping big guns and acquiring fight
ing equipment, high explosives and
the like.
The latest exploit under considera-
ton by the Germans, if carried out
will without doubt prove one of the
most daring and unique yet disclosed
The New York Evening Mail de,
clares it has been learned from a relia-
bic suprce that regular transatlantic
submarine service will be started be-
tween New York city and Hamburg and
that the first submarine liner is sched-
uled to arrive on American shores on
OF about July 1. she will be armed
for defense only; she will carry the
German mails, parcel post, express
matter and, perhaps, a few passen-
gers" says the New York newspaper.
The information was learned, it is
said, from shipping man who arrived
a few days ago from Hamburg. The
new submarine built for merchant SER
vice will be able to make the trip in
ten days, it is declared.
BY Aug. 8, Germany expects to have
five of these REPRESENTATIVES, working
on regular schedule the story contin-
ues. They will leave Hamburg and go
north of Scotland or through the cham
nel, as conditions warrant. 1t is
planned to enter New York by way of
Long Island sound, taking advantage
Of the three-mile limit"
Such move on the part of Germany,
it is said, will result in an immediate
strengthening of the British and Eng
lish patrols in Atlantic waters, and the
crowding of patrol boats up TO the very
limit of high seas waters.

a silo-but you can't afford to be with
out one.
1t is not necessary to construct an
expensive one to start with-a cheaper
kind will do. There is no best silo,
generally speaking. The best silo for
you is the one which can be con-
structed on your farm at the lowest
cost and pay you the greatest profit.
A pit silo or bank silo may be the
best for you. They are adapted to
many sections. Regions which are
passing through the pioneer stage Of
their development, where the cost of
material, labor and transportation is
high, need not be without silo. Kan
s;>s, Nebraska and Colorado farmers
have constructed more than three
thousand pit silos in the past two
years. In Montana, the Dakotas and
other northern states, where the Win
ters are severe, the pit silo is in gen.
eral use. They cannot blow down nor
freeze up, and they are cheaply con-
structed.
Prove Value OF Silo.
A good proof of the value Of the silo
is record of some work done in a
contrasting association at Albert Lea.
Minn., under the direction Of the Unit
ed States department of agriculture.
In this association - herds, or PIG
COWS were fed silage and 16 herds, or
200 cows were not fed silage. It seems
to ME that when man will examine
these data carefully he cannot but feel
that he is the loser if he does not have
silo. : 80 - =. - r /.
The results show that it cost 1892
more per COW to feed the silage herd
than it did to feed the herd which had
no silage, but the silage-fed cows pro-
Iuced So pounds more butterfat per
cow, giving net profit of $1,000 more

BILLIONS WASTED on FARMS

Many of us fail to appreciate our
real blessings, because we regard them:
rs just common everyday things. If,
some mysterious power were to sud-
denly change winter into summer, it
would be recorded as a miracle. In
reality, this is what the silo does
changes winter into summer. The silo
makes June grass out of the waste
products of the farm. Silage is the
winter pasture for the farm animals.
The silo is the cows kraut barrel. No
man can get the best out of the busi-
ness of farming without silo.
1t combines more good things and
brings greater profits than any other
building on the farm; it provides a
cheap and convenient place to store
oil of the crop; helps utilize cheap
roughage, makes it possible to keep
more stock on the farm, which means
more manure for the land The silO
lnsures succulent feed in the winter
and in dry spells when pastures fail;
provides balanced ration when fed
with alfalfa, clover, bran, cottonseed
meal and other protein or muscle-build-
Ing feeds. The silo takSG care of the
crops and clears the land for early fall
blowing, prevents waste in feeding,
keeps stock in good condition, makes
cheap beef and milk.
Waste With Corn Crop.
The greatest waste in any one indus
try in America occurs with the corn
crop. The grain of the corn crop Of
the United States every year is worth
on the farms about 81, 7OO,OOO,OO 60
per cent of the feed value in matured
corn is contained in the kernels, and
40 per cent in the stalk and leaves.
With the grain worth nearly three

pounds of butterfat per 100 pounds

The cows fed the grain ration pro.
duced 81.3 pounds of milk and 3.9
pounds of butterfat per 100 pounds of
dry matter
The average net profit per COW pei
month over cost of feed was $3.50 with
the silage ration and $40 with the
grain ration.
.m Fodder or siIage.
At the Nebraska experiment station
two groups Of calves nine months old
were fed from March IS to August Is.
In one lot each animal received an
average daily ration Of: Corn, rs
pounds; alfalfa hay, Al pounds; shred.
ded slower without ears), SO pounds.
The animals in the other lot received
! an average daily ration Of: Corn, 81
pounds; alfalfa, 3.4 pounds, and corn
silage, Is pounds.
The larger amount of corn was fed
to the stOyer lot to Offset the grain
contained in the silage. Th3two rations
therefore, were practically Identical,
except that to one lot Of animals the
cornstalks were fed as shredded sto.
yer, while to the other they were fed
as silage.
The silage-fed calves made an aver.
age daily gain of 1.8 pounds each
which was about one-third of pound
more than the average daily gain in
the stover-fed lot. The silage ration
was II per cent more efficient than the
slower ration. On that basis the same
area Of corn, of the same kind, when
put in the silo would make IL per
cent more beef than when cut for fod.
der and fed dry. II s#
There was time when silage was
considered entirely as a dairyman's
feed. It is just as good for the pro

made with practically the same result,
At the Indiana experiment station -four
lots Of steers were fed as follows

they could save 1858 on every 5000 in

lage in preference to hay in feeding
cattle.
Kansas experiment station not only
produced beef cheaper with ensilage
In the ration but also the silage-fed
steers sold at higher price on the
market than did the dry-fodder steers;
They found corn ensilage when put in
the silo would keep for five and six
years and retain it's feeding value.
Michigan experiment station has
been using silos since 1881, and has
found in several experiments ensilage
to be the most economic form of feed
ing the corn plant to live stock
Silage, when fed in conjunction with
alfalfa produced mutton more cheaply
than when hay was used.
Many other stations have tested out
the economic use of the silo, and one
and all have Endorsed it as practical,
economic equipment for the stock

all over the country have been demon

other business but farming could stand
such an enormous loss.
Contrast this waste by the corn
growers with the practices of large
business organizations. For years the
great packing houses have sold dressed
meat for less than they have paid for
the live weight Of the animals. Yet
every year these packing houses re-
turn millions Of dollars profit be-
cause they utilize to the fullest extent
the value Of their by-products. At the
same time the corn growers are vast.

Great Value Of silo.
The results Of hundreds Of feeding
experiments conducted in the past ten
years with silage as a part Of the
ration gives proof Of the great value
Of the silo to the farmer. There will
always be more or less Of the corn
crop shocked in the field, but corn left
exposed to the weather loses the great
er part of its feeding value. Why
waste the crop after you have grown
