Use OF shredder is perhaps the best

stored in the barn or Kicked outside
In preparing the rick poles or loose
straw should be placed next to the

they hold or bind each other. Near the
top O fthe rick one row Of bales should
project nearly one-half Of length to
protect those below. After the projec-
ton has been obtained each layer OF
bales added should be drawn in one
half length until the rick is topped.
Covering the rick first with straw and
then with timothy hay will protect 1t
from the rain. Straw or clover hay,

winter use, may be preserved in the
