Carbonic Acid Vapor Is
Very Poisonous in Silo

Carbonic acid gas is formed through
the fermentation of corn in silo.
This gas is very poisonous. Being
heavier than air, it will settle at the
bottom of the silo and, unless some
provision is made to let this flow out
of the silO, 1t is dangerous for persons
to enter. In the case of an above
ground silo, leaving the door open at
the silage level permits this gas to
escape, and there is no danger. With
a pit silo this escape is impossible, and
the proper method to pursue is to start
up the silage cutter and blower so as
to agitate the air and mix good air
with the carbonic acid. Another
method has been to take branch Of
tree and stir up this carbonic acid gas
so that it will disappear into the air.

Successful poultry raisers hatch
early for winter-laying pullets.
If the turkey hen wants to wean the
brood early, there's little use to inter-
fere by cooping them together. In such
a case the hen is likely to kill or main
part or all Of the brood.
In getting the machine ready for the
eggs, be sure that the incubator Is
running evenly and maintaining uni
form temperature The machine
should be run for several days before
the eggs are placed in 1t.
Do not brood too many chicks in
one flock, because it does not pay to
raise too many chicks under one stove.
If a great number is to be brooded it
will be cheaper in the end to buy
another stove.
Give flying start to little chicks
by feeding them chick grit and sour
milk or buttermilk when they are first
Matched.
Incubators should be of good con-
struction and run where drafts, sud-
den temperature changes and direct
sunlight cannot reach them
Baby chicks Matched out during April
must receive the best kind of food to
keep them growing, for it viii take
little pushing to mature them before
winter.

of the bicycle. When people began
to use their own muscles to propel
themselves rapidly over the roads they
at once became interested in their
condition. The League Of American
Wheelmen did much to awaken farm
ers to the value of having better roads
for their vehicles.
Plank was first used in Wisconsin
in the construction of toll roads. These
cost $1,000 to $1,000 per mile. They
were very popular at first but they
soon decayed, and the tolls were so
high that teamsters avoided them by
detouring around toll houses.
In 1897 law was passed authoriz-
Ing county aid and providing for the
hard surfacing Of system of main
roads After several attempts to get
state aid law on the statute books,
the people voted favorably on such a
proposal in the 1908 election. Then
began the program of work which has
given Wisconsin its high order of high
way service
