"Praetieal Maine SiIass crops"-
Edward w. Morton, Cumberland
County AGENT

Corn undoubtedly leads all others
when silage crops are considered. The
cost Of production is lower, the crop
is stored more readily in the silo, and
greater milk production is generally Sc
cured from this crop than from any
other. Not all sections of the State
are adapted TO corn. The corn crop re-
quircs more or less labor during the
busy summer months. 1t is not genet
ally known that certain crops may lie
su,stiu tci FOR corn and provide excel
len; Stage. requiring less lator in the
growth of the crop and a shorter grow
ing SEASON. The crops referred to are
inlet. winter rye, oats and peas. oats
and barley. clover sunfiower and soy
beans.
! Mllet requires a short growing sea-
son. 1t is especially well adapted for
planting in late wet spring. when it is
Impossible to get corn started at the
right time. The best siage is secured
when the crop is cut at the milk stage.
Winter rye, oats and pcasc and oats and
barley make an excellent silage, A
longer growing season is required than
with mi!let. The crop should be har-
vested when the grain is in the milk.
These crops are especially practical
where labor is scarce as midsummer
work is not required as in the case of
corn.
Glover makes excellent silage but as
the protein content is high, should be
cured for hav il possible. wet June
is a disaster when one contemplates
curing clover for hay, but it is Of great
/ benefit If the crop is stored in the silo.
| Thus the owner of a silo need suffer
but little loss. Some feeders claim bet
ter results from clover than corn sIlase.
! others the reverse. sunhowers have
| been usc1 but very little for silage IN
Maine. Care mist be exercised that the
i crop does not stand too long and be-
come woody. In instances where the
| crop has been used good results are
| reported in feeding.
The great value Of soy beans is in the
! protein content. A fairly long growing
season is -cbuired. Only the southern
section NJ the State affords such con-
ditions. Even in that section an es-
pecially favorable season is needed for
the crop to add much to the silage 9TH
er than succulence.
The question often arises as to the
advisability Of storing the crop with
out cutting. Any crop may be stored
in this manner but special care must be
exercised to pack closely. Plenty Of
water should be added to clover to se.
cure the best silage.

VALUE Of Bees to Fruit Growers
n. w. Matthews. Bangor, secretary
Penobscot Beekeepers' Association.

t'luie of all kinds has greatly in
creased in the last few years More
honey was produced so years ago
than at the present time, for practi-
ca!ly every farmer in those days kept
bees. Most of the hives were very
crude. less productive and more sus-
ceptible to disease than the modern
hive.
Bees get their first start in the
spring from fruit blossoms. In gath
ering honey and pollen from the Or
chards they do service for the
fruit growers that exceeds in value
more than the honey produced. Most
fruit trees cannot bear fruit without
the aid OF the bee or some similar
agency to fcrtilize the flowers.

what Stock and Crops Go with an
Orchard "- Charles C.. Clements,
Winterport
AS nothing can be done to the
trees or ground in Maine between
Nov. l and April l, the intervening
five long months can be given to the
care Of some kind Of livestock, and
it is a time Of year when the live
stock needs the most care. With
me. the dairy COW fits in very nicely
with orcharding. With the aid of
milking machines, the care Of the
COW in summer does not seriously
interfere with other farm work
Sheep also go well with orcharding
A farmer who is willing to adapt
himself to the requirements Of the
hen can get larger returns from
poultry. considering the time de-
voted to that branch, than from
any other source in connection with
his orcharding. The only conflict
ing time is in the spring, when the
care Of the chickens comes with
pruning and spraying. but with lit
tie extra help this difficulty can be
overcome.
The amount Of livestock an or
charist can care for depends largely
upon his ability to use and apply
laborsaving machines.
When orchard CIVILIZATIONS Is once
begun. it must not be interfered
with, but must be closely followed
up to get the best results The
coming of the tractor has been a
great aid to the cultivation Of crops
that can be cared for in conjunc-
ton with orchard work. If he is
engaged in dairying. the farmer
may grow insilage corn without fear
of it's interference with his orchard
work, as the corn will be harvested
before time to pick any of the ap-
Piles except the early varieties.
Neither the hay crop or the grains
will interfere with orcharding.

milk toll cave the bowl through the
SKINNED milk outlet, thus increas-
ing the amount Of fat in the skim
med milk very much. When the
bowl is run at a speed under normal
the separation of cream is not
thorough, and of consequence, the
SKINNED milk will test much high
er than it should.
When the float is not used and the
milk allowed to flow into <he bowl
at a rate greater than for normal
inflow. the whole milk crowds out
through the skinned milk outlet
giving a high percent of fat in the
SKINNED milk. When the separator
is not in level position there il
considerable vibration impaired to
the bowl. This vibration causes
more or less Of the whole milk to be
thrown out through the SKINNED
milk outlet. Vibration may also
come from excessively worn bear
ings. II a separator is not thorough
~ cleaned, each time it Is used,
about three times as much fat is
lost in the skinned milk as when
the bowl is properly cleaned.
The foregoing brief explanation
goes to show that separator in or
der to give the best results in OPP
zration. must be- firmly secured in
place and quite level: must be prop
erly cleaned each time 1t is used !;
and must be operated at the reQuir-
ed speed. In addition the tempera-
ture Of the milk must be at least
IS degrees F. and the inflow Of milk
into the bowl not greater than nor

Conspicuous
nose pores
Fow b<u1A1oe them

Complexions otherwise nawless are often
ruined by conspicuous nose pores.
The pores of the face are not as fine as on
other parts of the body. On the nose es-
peeialy, there are more fat glands than else
where and there is more activity Of the
pores. These pores, if not properly stimu-
lated and kept free from dirt, clog up and
become enlarged.
To reduce enlarged nose pores: Wiring q
soft cloth from very hot water, lather it
with Woodbury's Facial Soap, then hold it
to your face. When the heat has expanded
the pores, rub in gerry gently fresh lather Of
Woodbury's. Repeat this hot water and
lather application several times, stopping at
once if your nose feels sensifioe. Then finish
by rubbing the nose for thirty seconds with
piece Of ice.
