SAVE FEED BY
USING THE SILO

The silo offers the best means OF
conserving the farm feed supply 1t
enables the farmer to save the feed
stuffs for the future use of his farm
animals in much the same manner
that the canning machine enables the
housewife to save the vegetables and
fruits for the future use of the fam
lily. The present and prospective high
prices and the growing demand for
farm products of all kinds make it at
once to the profit and the duty of
farmers to increase in every way the
efficiency of their operations. To the
dairy farmer, at least, the silo is es-
sentfal to efficiency. Its advantages
are too numerous to fully enumerate
here. Suffice it to say that expert.
ments have proved that silage will
greatly reduce the cost of feed for
dairy cows and increase the milk pro-
duction. It is a palatable feed, keeps
the stock In thrifty condition, and
the young stock growing all winter
1t is more conveniently fed than hay
or corn fodder. Silage enables one to
keep a larger number of live stock on
a given area of land than may be
kept on forage crops cut for hay. 1t
furnishes succulent feed during the
summer when drouths frequently oc-

DO NOT BUTCHER THE
YOUNG FEMALE STOCK
Poor Practice, in Spite OF the Present
High Prices.

The prices obtainable for cattle and
hogs at the present time offer great
temptation to sell, even the female
stock, that Is hard to overcome And
yet If we give a little thought to the
future, ones better Judgment would
certainly suggest the retention of
sufficient number of the younger fe-
male animals to maintain the supply
and meet the demand for next year
at least, if not for longer.
The writer is led to make this sug
gestion from information received
that great numbers of cattle and hogs
are being sent out of the state, ire
spective of sex, due no doubt to the
profitable prices that can at present
be had for them. There is an old
saying that money counts" but how
long is 1t going to count" If our
stockmen dispose of their female
foundation and afterwards find ont
when too late that they have deprived
themselves of the necessary females
to breed from and are short of stock
to sell another year when prices viii
be just as high, if not higher?
IL this practice is persisted in 1t Is
going to result in a shortage of meat
animals when they may be needed
even more than at the present time
In other words, it is not going to con
serve the meat supply nor is it ulti-
mately going to be the most profit
able to our stock owners.
1t may be all right to get rid OF
reasonable number of the old and I'M
profitable female stuff, but there
should be a rigid line drawn at the
younger female stock if we hope to
maintain and increase the supply and
meet the future demands for meat
animals whic seems not only the
common sense proposition, but pa
triotic and profitable one.-W H.
Dalrymple, Department of Veterinary
Science, Louisiana State University.

be used for that purpose In fact, It
has been estimated that the dogs OF
this country consume enough food of
this character-that would feed ain

Is 1t right or patriotic at this time,
then, to continue to feed hundreds.

WATCH OUT FOR
DEFECTIVE JARS
They May Spoil Your Canned

To detect defects in screw top
jars:
l. Place the top on the jar
without the rubber. Turn it
down tight.
If the thumb nail can be insert.

2. Place the rubber and the cap
in position and screw them
down lightly.
Pull the rubber from its posi-
ton.
Release it.
If the rubber returns to it's pc.
sition between the top and the
jar, the top is defective.
To detect defects 10 glass top jars:
l Place the glass top on the
jar without the rubber.
Tap around the outer edge Of
the top with the finger.
Ii the top rocks, it is defective.
g. Put the wire bail into place

Jars may break if:
They are overpacked.
