At one time there was perhaps some
question as to the advisability of put
ting up silage. When silos were first
advocated for Florida it was sug-
gested by many that they were not
practical in our warm climate-that
the silage wouldn't keep, and that !.
wasn't necessary becauseI We could
grow green feed the year around. But
it has been demonstrated that silage
will keep in Florida as well as it will
in any other state when put up in
proper shape.
Comparatively few dairymen grow
the necessary green feed for their
herds the entire year. Green feeds
can be grown the year-round, but We
feel quite sure that for the greater
part of Florida the growing of silage
crops and putting them in the silo will
supply just as good feed and much
cheaper than it can be supplied from
green winter pasture crops.
Some one may say. why not feed
hay instead of silage? Dairy cows like
good hay and will eat quantities of it
but hay will not produce the flow OF
milk that silage will. Then, too, the
cost of the hay must be considered
During the past two or three years
the price of good hay has been SO
high that the dairymen could not af-
ford to buy it to feed to his herd.
On good land where a fair yield can
be had, silage crops can be grown
and put in the silo at a cost not to
exceed SIS per ton. The cost will de-
pend on the yield per acre that can
be obtained and the distance the crop
must be hauled from the field to the
silo If yield of eight to ten tons
of corn is secured and the haul is not
more than a quarter of a mile, silage
should be grown and put in the silo
at not to exceed SO to 81 per ton.
Corn is our best silage crop. On
good land it will produce quite salts
factory Yields. On the lighter sandy
soils, sorghum will be a very Salts
factory crop. And good sorghum sill
age has been proven by test to be al
most equal to good corn silage. The
importance of silage in the dairy RAJ
ton in addition to the food value that
it contains. is the succulence and
general tonic effect that it has on the
entire digestive system. The succu-
Ience in the feed is one OF the factors
that make it good milk producer
Silage will not take the place OF grain
the TdtiOu cASSpt tHdt Tic gram AZ
the silage will take the place Of the
same amount OF grain that may be fed
Silage should be fed In addition to the
grain ration, but can be used as a
substitute for hay. Under certain con-
disions we believe that all siIage can
be used az a substitute for all of the
hay. These conditions are when the
cows arc allowed to run on pasture at
all times 80 that they will have

SILAGE CROPS FOR FLORIDA
FARMERS PRACTICAL MOVEMENT

more COWS should have a silo. For
a herd of cows this size, the dairyman
can feed silage much cheaper than he
can buy dry roushage. The feed bills
constitute about half to two thirds Of
the expense of running a dairy. Since
the feeding is the big item of expense.
every precaution should be taken to
reduce this expense to the minimum.
The initial cost of the silo is con-
siderable, but we believe that the re-
duction in the cost of the feed will
more than pay the interest on the cost
of the silo.
To make dairying a success in Flor
ida, the dairymen must learn to be
economical and to feed only such cows
as will give a profitable return In
milk for the feed consumed
A great many people contend that
Florida will never be a dairy state for
the reason that cows will not give as
much milk here as they Will in the
northern states. This notion is not

based on facts. for during the past two
years production records have BEEN
kept by a number OF dairymen In this
state and these records show that
Florida has cows that would DO =
credit to any dairy herd. ThOsSocord
of these cows Is from 5000 to 10000
pounds of milk q year. These good
records were produced by judlc1ous
selection OF the individuals and by
good feeding. This good feeding has
not been excessive. In faot. the feed-
ing was not better than. any good
dairy COW deserves.

EARL ROGERS IS BIG MAN IN
THE WEST.

An interesting article was published
about Earl NJ. Rogers, former Little
Falls resident, in a recent issue Of the
"Spruce," publication issued in the
state Of Washington and devoted to the
interests of the men doing war work
in the spruce camps. The article deals
with the engagement of Mr.. Rogers to
construct mill to cut spruce on the
bay shore mile from the city in Port
Angeles. He started to cut with four
men and on the 18th of August landed
at Port Angeles and went to- work:
Less than three months later he had
completed the construction Of the larg-
est and most complete lumber mill in
the world. Especially interesting is
the fact that the mill was built on
"made land,' that is, land which was
submerged by water during high tide.
Mr.. Rogers was employed by the
Pine Tree Manufacturing company. mere
as a sawyer some fifteen or twenty
years ago. From here he went to Go
ouet and later out west. He built the
big Brooks-Scanlin mill at Scanlon,
Wis, and the Weyerhaeuser mill at-Ev-
erett, Wash, as well as many others.
He is brother Of G. n. Rogers Of Vir-
ginia, formerly Of this city. =

largest apricot tree in the world in

The tree, measured by Mr.. Grimes
and G. A. Huffaker, was found to be
fifty-four and half inches in circum-
ference at a point two and half feet
from the ground. 1t is twenty five
feet high. Mr.. Grimes is said to have
gion in California and has made a spe-
cial study of apricots.
