Corbin has produced ensilage said
to equal grass or corn fodder In
food value.
One pound Of the sulphate salts
to every ton Of ensiIage. he says,
quickly reduces the woody thorns tc
. semi-liquid condition, harmless To
livestock.
Corbin estimates cactus ensilage
will cost one-fourth as much as
corn ensilage does in the United
States. He expressed the opinion
at home here that cactus feed
might be shipped in alright con-
tanners to the dairy regions Of the
north.
The discovery may be utilized ir
the semi-arid cattle country ex-
tending from Texas to California
and far south into Mexico where
the prolific desert plant abounds.
The feed value Of cactus has
been known many years and Scien-
fists have puzzled over the problem
OF Kidding the plants of their
thorns. The United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture devised a torch
with which thorns could be burned
off but the process was too slow and
pounderous for practical applica-
ton.
Burbank then was asked to de-
velop O thornlesS cactus.
Some progress was made before
his death but it was found thorn

was discovered that thornless cac-
