worlds food shortage and of helping
to win the war
| Sllage on the farm this year will be
as effective as shrapnel on the firing
line. It will also add to the profits Of
the farm.
The grain fed to dairy cows alone in
the United States can be reduced one
fourth by the use of silage. This would
mean a saving Of 100000 bushels Of
grain for human food. In Minnesota
the saving would be 1890, 600 bushels
of grain, says A. D. Wilson, chairman
of the state food committee. This
would be tremendous contribution in
helping to bring the war to a speedy
end, and consequently in saving hui
man lives. Moreover it would add
enormously to the farmers income.
A silo built this year, also, would be
a permanent addition to the proft-pro-
ducing equipment of the farm.
The advantages Of the silo in brief
are these:
Silage cuts the amount of grain in
livestock rations.
It gives practically certain supply
Of livestock feed as corn is the surest
crop in the state.
It gives feed Of very high quality.
Because silage makes use Of the whole
corn plant, it is palatable and succulent
Especially for winter feeding when
most of the feed is in dry form, and
it increases the digestibility Of the dry
feeds.
The silo insures the corn crop, max
ing it possible to save corn. that might
otherwise be lost on account Of imma-
turity when frosts come.
