STCCH.
Practically all there are in this coun-
try are in small fiocks, and few, If any,
farms are devoted entirely to their
raising. Fattening, however, is con-
Quoted as a special business on large
scale in the producing sections, in
which case the geese are collected
from the general farms, usually over
a large area, and fattened for a few
weeks before they are killed.
On farms where there is plenty of
grass or pasture land geese can be
raised successfully in small flocks. A
natural supply of water Is, of course,
essential. The birds are very hardy,
both young and old, and rarely are af-
fected by any disease or insect pest.
Grass forms the bulk Of the feed, and
It Is doubtful whether it pays to raise
them unless it Is available. They are
the closest known grazers. Both ma
ture geese and partly grown gOslings
will get their entire living from a good
pasture SO long as the grass remains
green. A body of water where they
can swim is considered essential dur
ing the breeding season, and is good
feature the rest Of the year.

A Low-Down Flat Wagon Saves Labor
In Handling Corn When Filling SiIo.

The mistake is often made of getting
an outfit that is too small, thus MAX
ing the operation of filling the silo very
slow and interfering with the cOntinu-
Gus employment of the entire force of
men. A number of satisfactory silage
cutters are on the market. The chief
features to be considered in cutter
are that it is strongly made and will
cut fine.
Harvest Corn Before Fully Ripe.
Ordinarily corn should be harvested
for the silo about a week or ten days
before it would be cut for shocking;
that Is, when about 80 per cent of the
kernels are denied and at least Is per
cent of the kernels are hardened so
that no milk can be squeezed out. At
this time the lower leaves on the stalk
are turning yellow and the green corn
fodder contains 60 or 70 per cent of
moisture, which is sufficient for silage.
Silage made from corn containing mois-
ture enough for proper preservation is
more palatable than that made from
corn so mature as to require the addi-
ton of water.
