POTATO SILAGE BEING TRIED
First Reports of Experiments Made by
Agricultural Department Are
Not Pleasing.

The United States department of
agriculture has been experimenting
with potato silage. First reports indi-
cate that such silage will not be very
practical. Of course only the small
uhrnarketable potatoes are used, but
they must be ground and mixed with
n special Tactic acid culture. which
brings about the proper fermentation.
Potato silage made in this way seems
TO be good feed for either hogs or cat
