How About It?

Some OF the largest textile mills
of New England have sold their en-

and at high prices.
Are these, perchance, the mills
whose owners are bowling themselves

demanding the election of Repub-

DAIRY COWS DURING WINTER
Winter Milk VIII Bring Farmer About
one-Third More Per Quart Than
During Summer Season.

The production of milk is now quite
a different proposition from what 1t
was in summer. Winter milk will gen.
orally bring the farmer about one
third more per quart than in summer.
To Offset this. 1t costs lot more to
produce 1t. Winter milk can be pro-
duced at profit where the producer
is as far away as 200 miles from mar.
ket. but to do it the producer cannot
go at 1t in haphazard, slipshod way.
He must thoroughly inform himself
as to the actual cost Of milk. He must
keep a correct account Of each item
expended. There must be charged
against the COW the amount Of hay.
silage, roots and feed she consumes, at
the fair market value. Each COW
should be credited with the amount of
milk she produces. at market prices.
and then feed and care for the cows.

sILAGE MAKES A BIG SAVING
Among Other Advantages sueeulent
Feed 10 Available Whole Year
Keeps Up Milk Flow.

A dozen of the more common ad.
vantages of silage are: Succulent
feed is available the whole year. The
digestive system of the live stock ia
kept in good condition during the
winter months and the animals look
like grass-fed stock. Silage produces
cheaper and better beef or mutton, in.
creases the milk flow about ten per
cent. Corn stored as silage eliminates
the 80 to rs per cent loss OF feeding
value of stalks left standing in the
field. or the rs per cent loss when left
in the shock. All parts of the plant
are made palatable.
More feeding value Is concentrated
in less space than with any other
coarse feed. Silage is beneficial for
growing animals. It produces bone
and meat and creates appetite.
Silage keeps up the milk flow when
pastures are short and flies bad and
during the winter months. The feed
ration is cheapened and made more
palatable by the use of silage. Sllage
can be cut and stored regardless OF
weather conditions. More live ctock
can be kept on the farm where the
silo is found. hence bigger profits and
more fertile soil.
Silage Is the most conveniently han.
died Of all coarse feeds. The saving
of the corn crop over the old method
of handling corn. coupled with in.
creased profits by using 1t in the ra-
ton. will pay for silo in one year.
