On the project under observation it
was intended to let the sunaowers get
fairly well matured, about the same as
corn, before putting them in the silo.

earlier The yield was from so to 40
tons per acre. Cows fed on sunfiower
silage kept up the usual flow of milk
as well as those which were fed on the
grain silage. Some of the big Holstein
cows ate as much as 80 pornds per
day. No unfavorable results could be
noticed in the flavor of the milk. While
this experiment has not gone far
enough to reach definite conclusions, it
indicates that sunflowers may be con.
sidered a good crop for sllage in some
localities.

RULES FOR FEEDING sILAeE
Good Plan Is TO Allow Three Pounds
Of Material to Every 100 Pounds
Of Live Weight.

A rule fc. feeding silage 70 the
dairy cows is: Feed three pounds Of
silage for every 100 pounds Of live
weight. A COW weighing 1000 pounds
should receive about 30 pounds. A
COW which weights over 1900 pounds
should receive about As pounds Of
silage per day. Silage is usually fed
twice IL day, in the morning and eve
ming after milking.

experience had shown motor vehicle
