ROOTED sILo is PREFERRED
Helps Prevent Freezing of siIase,
Keeps Out Snow and Protects
Walls of Silo.

By r. L. PATTY. South Dakota Expert.
ment Station)
The old notion that it is unnecessary
to roof the silo was wrong. Experience
shows that a silo roof helps to prevent
the freezing Of the silage, keeps out
snow, protects the silo walls when
empty, and thereby adds to it's life
service.
The roof is necessary on stave' silo
to give it rightly in addition to protec-
ton. If the roof is put on after the
silo is filed, no inside scaffolding is
necessary.
Common types of silo roofs are
shingled, concrete, light hollow brick,
prepared roofing on tight sheathing
and metal. The roof should match the
silo. If one builds a fire and wind
proof silo, he should by all means put
on fire and windprooof roof. The roof
should be made to last as long as the
silo. A short-lived roof should not be
put on long-lived siio.

prepared t1 the United States Depart

It is practically impossible to try to
make an old alfalfa field look like new
by attempting to sow more seed after
disking or cultivating in the fall.
Thousands Of dollars worth of seed
are wasted in unsuccessful attempts
to revive the waning stand Of alfalfa.
Specialists recommend that fields on
the decline should be plowed up and
reseeded.
Even though the seed terminates
successfully, the plants mature at
periods different from those of the old
plants, while ordinarily the young
plants are smothered out before they
make much growth. Even where an
alfalfa field is patchy and covered
with practically bare spots, it is not
advisable to attempt to reseed except
by breaking up the entire field and
again sowing down with alfalfa.
Not Profitable to Cultivate.
It is always Objectionable, according
to the specialists, to cultivate or disk
an alfalfa field irrespective of it's age
and condition, as carefully conducted
experiments have shown that the only
section in, which it was profitable to
cultivate the alfalfa crop in any way
was in the irrigated belt Of the far
West.
Usually unfavorable results attend
where alfalfa is disked under eastern
conditions, although in the case of al
falfa fields which have been badly in

RUSSIANS HIT BY FAMINEs
Shortages Of Food Date From 1900
100000 Persons Reduced to Star
walton in Famine of 1911.

Next TO the proletariat of India and
China. the Russian peasant feels the
pinch of poverty and hunger more
keenly and more frequently than any
other. says the National Geographic
Society. One of the earliest Russian
famines on record was that of 1900,
with death toll of 100000 peasants.
Cats. dogs and rats were eaten. and
even the strong overcame the weak.
Human flesh was sold in the markets.
Three Russian famines of recent
date were among the most severe IN
history-in 1891, 1906 and 1911. Dur
ing the ten years following the first
of these, the government allotted
nearly $125.000,000 for relief, but the
sums We're not always iudiciously ex-
pended. In 1906 the government gave
30 pounds of -four month to all per-
sons under eighteen years old and over
fifty-nine. Those between these ages
received no allowance, and the older
and younger shared their pittance
with the others.
The famine of 1911 extended over
one-third the area of Europe and af-
fected 30,000,O00 persons. while s.
100000 were reduced to starvation.

FATTENING FEED FOR STEERS
Corn SiIage and Concentrates as
Best for Cattle.

Corn silage and. concentrates are
highly recommended as fattening feed
for steers. Experimental stations re-
port that silage and oil meal or cot
t0nseed meal invariably prove to be
cheaper than corn or even than hay
or corn with concentrates or silage
and hay BY themselves.
1t is admitted that steer cannot
be finished for beef properly and to
the best advantage on an all-silage
diet. But the most polished steer on
the market is not always the most
profitable one. High priced feed may
surcost the high priced carcass.

What the Railroads Collect.

In 1916. year of normal conditions,
each person in the United States paid
$25 for railroad freight, bill of $12h
annually for the average family
Therefore each increase Of % per cent
in freight rates above the 1915 level
means an increased per capita tax of
$6.25, or an increased tax for each
American family of 1925. Freight
rates have increased more than so per
cent since 1916. therefore the freight
bill for the average family is now
around 5000, all of which is paid in
directly, of course. These figures are
worth studying before we again dip
into our pockets to help railroad
finances.

PORK REQUIRED FOR WINTER
Farmers Who Raise Hogs, XIII and
Cure Their Own Meat Save Cost
of Marketing.

Porkers ought to be grazing in
fields and pastures getting food to
transform into pork for your winter
meat supply. If farmers do not raise
enough hogs for their own meat who
will?
Some one must supply farm homes
with pork, bacon, lard and sausage.
Those who buy from the stores are
likely to find the cost of handling ex-
cessive. But those who raise the hogs,
kill and cure their own meat will save
the cost of marketing.
