SILO-BUILDING
TIME HAS ARRIVED

Before long the housewife in town
and on the farm will begin to make
plans for canning fruits and vegeta-
bles for next winters food supply.
Why shouldn't the dairy farmer make
a similar provision for his cows by
building a silo and planting a crop to
fill it? asks the dairy department Of
the University of Missouri College
of Agriculture.
The silo can always be considered
sign of prosperity. Whenever one
:ides through any country community
and finds the landscape dotted with
silos, he Immediately "sizes up" the
community as prosperous one be-
cause it indicates at once that large
numbers Of livestock are kept and it
also shows that the farmers are far
sighted, locking to the future.
The early spring time Wien pas
lures are abundant is the ideal time
to take care of cows. At this time
the cows do their best at least cost
because they are able to get large
quantities Of succulent feeds. The 81
10 is the best and about the only
means Of approximating these sum
mer conditions at othe" seasons of the
year.
The silo is one of the most econom-
ical buildings on the farm and it gives
excellent results. According to a re-
cent issue of Hoard's Dairyman, "the
silo is the best and cheapest form of
providing succulcnt winter feed. 1t
is the cheapest farm building we can
erect. 1t will house feed nutrients ut
q lower cost per ton than the hay NOW
in the barn will protect like feeding
value in the form of hay or other
roughage from the weather. It in
creases the producing capacity of the
farm at least ten per cent and will
often increase the stock carrying ca
pecity twenty-five per cent. 1t is the
cheapest place to store the corn crop,
for an acre of corn can be placed in
the silo at cost not exceeding that
of shocking, husking, grinding and it
will preserve more feed nutrients and
p: oduce more milk per acre than any
other system CT handling. l. saves 1.
third Of the value Of the corn that is
otherwise largely wasted. 1t requires
less labor to feed silage and there is
less waste Of fodder by the cows"
What more convincing arguments
are needed? Corn is the best crop
for silage although there are other
crops that can be mixed with corn to
make good silage and a few others
that make good silage alone. If any
information about varieties of corn
is desired it can be had by addressing
the College of Agriculture, Univer-
sity of Missouri, Columbia. Why not
put in good acreage of corn this
spring and build a silo before fall
No progressive dairy farmer can af-
ford to carry on his business without
a silo CT some type.
