Of the many varieties suitable
for fall planting, the Lookout Noun
tain seems to be the most popular
and is usually recommended as be-
ing the best, not because of the
superior eating quality but because
Of its keeping quality. Substitutes
for this variety may be such spring
varieties as Coboler and Early Rose,
both of which are good but not so
good as the I.ookut Mountain in keep

The same soil recommendations

ply equally well to the fall crop.

sides, weather conditi ons lnay inter-
fere greatly with a soiling system,
whereas with the silo a good supply
of succulent feed for the COWS IS
available regardless Of weather con-
ditions. When it is not necessary to
use the siIo during he >lmmei, Il
can be sealed up and the silage pre-
served for winter use, thus prevent
ing any waste in feed.
It will not pay to build silo for
less than ten head of dairy COWS, but
the farmer with at least the minimum
number should at once plan to build a
silo. The dairy farmer who in the
fall has a silo or two full Of good
corn or sorghum silage, need not wor-
ry about what his cows are going
to eat.
Talking recently Of the practica-
bility of silo, a farmer Of Dillon
county said he thought it was too
expensive to buy the material neces-
sary for filing a silo. But why
should every farmer need to own
this equipment? Let him cooperate
with his neighbors in filing t.? s!lo
as he does in marketing cotton and
tobacco. AS many as a dozen dairy
men can own jointly a silage cutter
and necessary equipment at very lit
tie cost to each.
Now is the time of the year to
think about building silo.

THE SILO IMPORTANT
IN DAIRYING

Clemson College, June 27.-uairy
farmers are realizing more and more
the place of the silo in the success
full feeding of dairy cows. Business
farmers and experiment stations
have found that silo not only in
creases the yearly profits of the farm,
but eliminates many uncertainties of
livestock raising.
Many products which if fed dry
have little feed value are converted
into splendid feed by a silo. Sixty
I per cent of the feeding value of
good corn crop is in the ears and 40
per cent in the stalks and leaves
When the crop is a partial failure,
a much greater per centage of the
total nutrients is in the roughage,
and in the event of protracted
drought, the roughage often contains.
practically all the food elements.
Putting the corn in the crib, there
! fore, does not mean that the crop is
all harvested. Can the farmer af-
ford to waste 40 cents out of every
dollar when by putting his corn crop
in the silo, he can get it's full value,
100 per cent? No.
Silage has no equal as a succulent
and economical feed for dairy cattle.
It keeps up the flow of milk when
pastures are short, and during the
winter months it keeps up milk pro-
duction at less cost than dry forage
alone.
The Ohio Experiment Station has
shown that a silage ration produces
butter fat for Al per cent less cost
than does grain ration. A silo is
a very economical storage place, as
ten tons of silage can be stored in the
same space as one ton of hay.
The filing Of the silo can be done
in wet as we'll as in dry weather,
while other crops would be entirely
lost if harvested under these condi-
tions. If enough silage is produced
all the year round, the pasture acre
age can be reduced and thus a larger
acreage may be used for cultivation
Another great advantage of the
use of the silo is that the land upon
which silage is grown is cleared
early in the season and ready for fall
and winter crops, either rye or oats
for winter pasture or oa:s and vctch
for hay.
The use of silage during the sum-
mer is particularly applicable on
high priced land. In pasture, it
requires one to three or more acres
a season for each cow, while one
acre of corn in the silo will supply
succulent roughage for several cows
for like period.
Soiling crops have been used ex-
tensively in place of or in addition
to pasture. The great disadvantage
in their Use is that much labor is
required, for they must be cut and
hauled every day. This is expensive
because only small areas are cut at
one time. 1t is inconvenient also
because the field work is pressing at
that season of the year and both man

that President Harding would hold no

Bearish effects of unsettled domestic
industrial conditions were increased by
disturbing advices about foreign finances
and by almost complete absence of eX-

nand for wheat seemed TO be restricted
almost to previous sellers. who were In
a position to collect profits.
A moderate rally at wheats close was
ascribed in the main to profit taking.
The only other noticeable upturn was
ir the early trading and was due to an
nouncement that there would be no
board Of control for wheat in Canada
this year. Signs developed, tnough, that
spreading operations were in progress
between Winnipeg and Chicago, with
the selling end here. In such circum-
stances the abandonment Of board Of
control plans in Canada ceased quickly
to WELD any stimulus.
Complaints that corn was firing be-
cause of continued hot dry weather gave
strength to corn and oats. In particular
the Nebraska corn crop was reported
