mans charges, if saved, will consti-
tute good profit for the feeder. This
Is especially true of roughages. Such
feeds are bulky and in most cases must
be baled at a considerable cost; the
freight rates also are much greater In
proportion to the nutrients contained
than Oh the grains.
When land is high in price and the
markets for dairy products are good, it
is often impracticable to grow all the
feeds on the farm. In such cases ar
engagements first should be made to
grow the roughage, on account of the
high cost of transporting these feeds.
En- most cases the prime object of the
farm under such conditions will be to
supply the greatest possible quantity
Of roughage.
1t is difficult problem to provide a
system of winter feeding of roughage
which will make the best use Of home
crown roughage and at the same time
insure full production.
In addition to containing the proper
nutrients in the right proportion, part
of the ration should be Of a succulent
nature. 1t is extremely difficult, if not
impossible, to keep cows in full produc-
ton throughout the winter without
some succulent feed. There are two
chief sources of succulent feed for
winter feeding-silage and roots. OF
these, silage Is in almost universal use
by commercial dairymen. While al.
most any green crop may be
used for silage, the heavy yields
Of corn. as compared with other
crops, and it's comparative ease OF
together with its keeping
qualities, make 1t the leading silage
crop. Where the cost of land and the
prices of dairy products are high, and
The system of farming Of necessity is
Intensive, it is questionable whether
the dairyman should consider any 9TH
n silage crop.
