KEEP STRAW FOR
FEED Is ADVICE
OF FARM AGENT
Straw Properly Stacked Will
Keep for Years and Be Good
Feed.

Straw from wheat and oats
threshed in Grady county this year
if properly stacked during the
threshing, will be worth thousands
CT dollars to the farmers of Grady
county, is the belief of ]. w. Owens
county farm agent.
"St:aw is just as good for feed
two, three or four years old as one
year old. but in order to keep it for
any length of time, it must be prop
erly stacked" says Mr.. Owens. "The
modern thresher, with its wind
stacker must be operated properly
in order to do a good job of stack
ing. If you just turn it loose and
allow it to run without any care it
is impossible to put up stack that
will keep the straw for future feed.
DO not burn your straw. It is
worse than criminal in a country
where drcuths are frequent to burn
straw stack.
IF the thresherman will not fur
nish man to stay on the machine
and operate the wind stacker. then
think the farmer ought to place
enc there. Think of the value of
coed straw stack in the dead OF
winter. Think of the protection on
cold days to the stock. Think how
much money we pay for straw here
when there is none to thresh. Then
surely the farmer will take all pos
sib'e interest in saving and putting
