Good Proof That Silage
Not Injurious to Cows

The fact that silos have been used
In this country for more than 80 years,
and have increased in popularity each
year, especially in the dairy districts,
Is abundant proof that silage is not
injurious to cows.
Corn, the giant Of the grass family,
produces more food per acre for live
stock than any other known plant. Its
nature is such that it cannot be eco
nomically harvested at that stage of
its growth when it contains the largest
per cent of digestible nutrients and
stored like other members of the grass
family. If allowed to mature it, like
other grasses, develops a large amount
of indigestible matter-cellulos tissue
which is fmpalatable as we'll as indi-
gestible. Then, too, 1t is very bulky,
requires a large amount of storage,
and is bothersome to feed. Harvested
after it becomes ripe, and handled in
the very best known way, more than
30 per cent of it's food value Is lost.
But If harvested when green, at the
proper time, and stored in a good silo,
much more of it is digestible and there
need not be loss to exceed per cent
in food value.

Small Amount Of Iodine
Needed in Cows Ration

A small amount Of iodine is needed
in the ration Of dairy cattle for the
proper functioning of the thyroid
gland. A deficiency of this element
results in goitre or "big neck" in
calves. Iodine is often lacking in
soils distant from the sea, and con-
sequently goitre is more prevalent in
such regions than near the sea coast.
Decaying sea weeds liberate this ele-
ment, which is carried by the wind
over the land and taken up from the
soil by the crops.
The addition of one-tenth Of
pound Of either sodium or potassium
iodide, finely pulverized, to 100 pounds
Of salt and this mixture fec, to meet
the salt requirement, is sufficient, as
only little more than a trace of
iodine is needed.
Since milk and butter are very good
natural sources of iodine In the hui
man diet, it is important that the cows
producing milk for human food re-
ceive iodine in their ration Michigan

Market All Fowls That
Mott Early in Autumn

Most hens stop laying when they
begin to mott" says E. L. Dakan of
the poultry department at Ohio State
university. IA hen must be a con-
sistent layer to make high record,
and an early Noting hen is not a con-
sistent layer.
"The time Of the mott is the best
indication of the past years perform
ance. This rule can be used in culling
all breeds and varieties, but is of spe-
cial Importance with such breeds as
the Orpingtons end Minorcas that do
not have the yellow skin.
THE hen that molts early, under
normal conditions, will not lay as
many winter eggs as the hen that
molts late. Neither will she begin egg
production earlier in the spring. No
definite date can be set as to early
mott, but as general rule the first
hens in the flock to mott should be
sold, and the last to mott should be
kept for breeding purposes.
"Hens may be thrown into an early
mott by starving while laying heavily,
by irregular fee ding, by roosting in a
house that is poorly ventilated or by
anything which tends to check egg
production"

Importance Of Keeping
Winter Wheat Crop Pure

The Importance of keeping winter
wheat pure is emphasized by farm
crops men of the Minnesota university.
Since mixtures of rye reduce the mar
ket value Of winter wheat by lowering
grades, the planting Of wheat on fields
that have rot produced winter rye for
several seasons is the best way to
avoid this difficulty.
The university men do not recommend
winter wheat as regular crop In the
Red river valley. In the north central
part it may be grown successfully If
Minturk or some variety equally
hardy is planted early in September.
Minturki ms also proved satisfactory
in central and southern sections.
Winter rye is a successful crop In
northern Minnesota when a hardy va
riety is sown the first part Of Septem-
ber Swedish rye, Minnesota No. 2, is
recommended for northern and central
portions of the state. In the southern
part Rosen rye may be grown success
fully except on high exposed fields
where the snow is likely to be blown
off during the winter.

Layers Do Better With
Well Furnished House

"For the comfort of the flock and
the convenience of the caretaker the
poultry house should be completely
furnished" says N. e. Chapman, poul-
try specialist of Minnesota university
dropping boards and removable
roosts are essential to health he says.
"One nest, easy of access, should be
provided for every four hens. Hoppers
for mash and minerals, manger and
troughs for green feeds and moist mash
are needed.
water tables or shelves, with sani-
tary pans or pals for water and crooks
for milk should be provided. A broody
coop and a dust box are needed at GER
tain seasons of the year. Burlap cur
tains before the roost chamber may be
required in some sections of the state.
proper furnishings for the poultry
house will save on the labor bill which.
in instances, is about as large as the
feed bill"

Grow Horse-Radish From
Cuttings Set in Spring

Horse-radish requires, a very deep,
cool, rich soil and late season growth
for the best results. 1t is propagated
from cuttings of the small side roots
The cuttings are made from the roots
when they are dressed for market In
the fall and are stored in the cellar or
in pits as other roots are during the
winter. These cuttings may then be
planted in early spring but since
most Of the growth is later in the
season it is customary to hold them
till later and plant with some other
crop such as early cabbage or Oeets.
When planted the top of the cuttings
should be from three to five inches
below the top of the soil. Horse-rad-
ish will grow until freezing weather
when it should be plowed out, cut
tings made for the following year and
the desirable roots marketed.

Lime and Legumes
Build Up Fertility
Immediate Profits Result
When Properly Used.

Lime and legumes used properly
will help to build up the fertility of
the land and will give immediate
profits to the crop following the treat
ment, finds r. T. Lenoir of the Yad-
kin Valley IN. CO. section, who con-
Quoted a demonstration with County
Agent d. w. Roberts this past year.
This year Mr.. Lenoir had 40 acres
in wheat. Part was grown on an al
falfa sod, part on plot where a crop
of soy beans had been turned under,
part on clover sod and another part
on old wheat stubble land" says Mr..
Roberts previous to this year all of
the land was thought to be of the
same fertility The land was prepared
for wheat alike. Each plot received
the same amount and kind of ferti-
lizers, the same amount and kind of
seed and was sown practically on the
same day. The only difference was
that lime and alfalfa had been used
on one plot; lime and soybeans on
another; lime and clover on the third
and wheat stubble alone on the fourth.
when the crop was harvested the
alfalfa plot yielded at the rate of 341b
bushels of wheat per acre; the soy
bean plot at the rate of 271S the
clover plot at the rate of %, and the
wheat stubble plot yielded at the rate
Of 61A bushels per acre.
"The crop cost Mr. Lenoir SIS per
acre including marketing and was sold
on the local market for 50 per bushel.
ITO make long story short, Mr.
Lenoir made a net profit of $54 per
acre from the alfalfa sod plot, $40 per
acre from the soy-bean plot, and $35
per acre from the clover sod plot.
Where no lime and legumes were used
but only the wheat sod planted, he
lost 81 per acre on the venture

Satisfactory Source of
Water for Dairy Cows

Cows which are producing milk re-
quire larger quantity of water than
for the same animals when they are
dry. This is caused by the need Of
water to be used in the milk and also
for the digestion and assimilation of
a larger quantity of food
Tests which were made in Missouri
showed that cows consumed practi-
cally four times as much water when
milking heavily as when dry. There
is larger consumption in summer on
account of the larger evaporation of
moisture from the body.
Cows which are on heavy feed and
producing large quantities of milk
should always have access to good
water at least twice a day. With
dairy cows the water supply should
be close at. hand, especially during
cold weather for the reason that the
cows will often do without the wa
ter which they need rather than to
brave the cold. If they do not get the
water needed the milk supply will
shrink.
The use of ponds as a source of
water for dairy cows is not objection
able If there is no seepage of manure
into the ponds or If the cows are not
allowed to enter the water. How
ever, most ponds have both of these
objections. The most satisfactory
source Of water is from a deep well.

NO TREATMENT

crops are richest in phosphorus 1t is
abundant in feeds rich in protein.
Wheat bran, linseed meal, cottonseed
meal and tankage are the feeds rich
est in this element According to
analysis wheat bran contains about
SO pounds of phosphoric acid to the
ton, linseed meal 33 pounds, cotton
seed meal, SO pounds, and high-grede
tankage 240 pounds.
Need Ten Pounds Yearly.
Reasonably good yields of corn, oats
and clover remove, on the average, 80
pounds of phosphoric acid per acre
yearly. Since only two-thirds of this
is returned in the manure on the stock
or dairy farm, about ten pounds Of
phosphoric acid per acre annually
should be returned either in feed pur-
chased or in the form Of phosphate
fertilizers.
Richards maintains that the net in
come of many Wisconsin farmers
might be larger If more phosphate fer
tilizers were purchased to assist in the
production Of larger grain and legume
crops which would make it possible
to reduce the expenditure for concen-
trated feeds.
Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1925-10-15

live stock is grown and its products
sent to market, a limited amount Of
phosphorus leaves the farms with
these products. 1t can be replaced
only through the purchase Of CONNER
cial feeds rich in this element and
through the use of phosphate fer
tilizer.
Phosphorus Affects Income.
Wisconsin's income Is influenced d.
rectly by phosphates, Richards be-
iieves. Since the income of most Wis
consin farms is from the sale Of dairy
products and hogs, the amount of this
income Is determined largely by the
bushels of corn and small grains and
the tons of hay and corn silage fed
Phosphates improve crop yields, there
fore they directly influence income.
Richards tells of a graduate Of the
Wisconsin College of Agriculture who
lives on his fathers farm a few mites
south Of Madison. While attending
the college this young man learned
about phosphate fertilizers so he re-
solved to give them trial in actual
farming practice. The soil on this
farm Is Darlington silt loan, which is
generally considered one Of the best

Farm Birds Eat
Numerous Pests
Feathered Tribe Feast on
Insects of Many Kinds
and Many Weeds.

The economic value of birds, espe-
cially insectivorous birds in farm dis
tricts, cannot be too strongly empha-
sized, in the opinion of the biological
survey of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture For this reason
the bureau is interested not only in
the protection of migratory game
birds, which is one of its important
functions
Hardly an agricultural pest exists
but has numerous effective bird enc
mics. For instance, % kinds Of birds
are known to feed upon the clover
weevil, and like number upon the
potato beetle, 35 on the cooling moth,
As on the gypsy moth, 40 on horseflies,
81 on bill-bugs, 85 on clover-root
borers, 90 on cutworms, 120 on leaf
hoppers, and 1853 on wireworms.
Also Eat Weed Seeds.
Birds benefit the farmer also by eat
ing quantities of weed seeds. 1t has
been estimated that a single species
of sparrow in a single State-lowa-
consumed annually 875 tons of weed
seeds. Birds do not, of course, espe-
cially single out the noxious seeds or
an insect pest for food; but, eating in
discriminatory and voraciously, the
most abundant food is taken first, and
this is likely to be the moving cater
pillar or adult insect, or the seeds on
the plant or on the ground, where they
have been carried by the wind Many
species of birds perform another i'm
pOrtant service TO man through their
feeding habits, since they act as scav-
engers. In districts where the dis
posal of waste is not completely taken
care of by community and individual
effort, birds make valuable contribu-
ton to public health.
Next to man himself, wantonly
using his gun, the worst enemy Of
farm birds is the domestic cat Storms
also destroy great many birds by
cutting off their food supply. Protec-
ton against the elements cannot often
be provided for birds except where
refugees or sanctuaries are maintained
for them, but a protective public
sentiment, supported by effective laws,
will lessen the damage done by man
and domestic animals. Birds may be
still further encouraged and increased
by the provision of food trees, such as
the mulberry, which will serve the
double purpose Of attracting them
away from cherry or other fruit trees
and supplying them with suitable food.
