Filling a Silo.

Don't have a man or men tramping
in your slo. 1t is useless job at any
time and much more now on the account
of scarcity of farm help. Arrange a
spout or spouts so the ensilage will
fall as near the center of the silo as
possible. This will cause mound in
the middle of the silo and the corn will
settle toward the outside of the silo
at all times and you will never have any
hurt ensilage around the outside of the
silo, even if the silo is not air tight,
whereas, if the silage is trod around the
outside and kept level, the tendency is
to settle in the middle and draw the
ensilage away from the outside, causing
the air to get in and spoil ensilage on
the outside of the silo.
| haven't had man tramping in my
silo for more than ten years, except
when the slo is about full, and it keeps

much better than with the old way of
leveling and tramping.
To prevent sour ensilage in bottom of
silo, when ensiling corn that is rather
green, put in a few tons of corn in bot
tom of silo, then wait few days un
til it gets quite hot. Then fill and you
win have well-cooked ensilage all the
