WHEN TO CUT sILAGE CORN.
(From Conservation Bureau of Ma
tional Food Administrator

(From Conservation Bureau of Ma
tional Food Administrator
One of the few cases where a man
had better be too late than too early
is in the time of filling the silo. BY
all means avoid cutting silage corn
too early. Silage from immature
corn turns sour, is less palatable than
when properly made, and has lower
feeding value.
Best results are obtained by COM
mencing to fill while the leaves of the
upper part Of the stalks are yet green
but not until the kernels are distinct
ly dented, in dent varieties, or con-
siderably hardened in others.
When silage corn is SO dry that the
cut fodder does not feel moist as it is
squeezed in the hand, water should
be added at filling time. This can
best be accomplished by turning
running hose into the blower. The
amount of water to be used will de-
pend on the rate of filing. Aim to
make the cut fodder moist enough to
pack down solidly.
Farmers who are making their
first use of silos this fall in order to
