Ensile Your Feed Costs

Stock rations are high this sea-
son and it is becoming more nee
essary each year to produce with
economy. Owing to the widespread
drought, hay of good quality is SELL
ing at a higher price and grains
and mill feeds are not much behind
Our experiment Stations have been
doing some very practical work in
testing out different methods of
feeding. 1t is interesting to note
that in all cases where silage is
compared with other forage, the
silo has proven itself a saving
Besides the Experiment Stations
many stock keepers have brought
out some interesting figures, all
varifying and further proving this
economy of the silo.
Mr.. E. p Miller of Junction City,
Kansas, has stated that the silo on
his sixty-cow dairy farm, saves him
each year, forty-five cents on the
cost of producing hundred pounds
of milk. Mr. Miller also shows by

Feeding Tom Junior, The Athlete
Tom Junior heaped his plate
with another extra generous" serv-

gan to butter third slice of brown
bread. Mother Briggs wondered if
her fourteen-year-old son ever
could get enough to eat.
His stomach Just seems to be
bottomless," she remarked to Fa-
Their Briggs after Tom had eaten
his second cookie aud baked ap-
pie and had dashed off to basket
ball practice. Mothers butter
cookies hit the spot with Tom.
"Well, I'm thankful the 10y eats

There's nothing 'finicky' about
Bill or Dotty either" remarked Fa-
Their as he refilled their milk glas-
ses. Maybe We'll have a whole

Tom had made the basketball
team-played standing guard, in
fact. His mother knew that mis-
fine physique was due to the
wholesome food he ate every day.
During the troublesome teens, the
energy needs are greater than at
any other period. The chief prob
lem during this time is to provide
enough food in concentrated form
for rapid growth and excess activ-
ity. Toms diet included the nee
essary foods-a quart Of whole
milk, two vegetables, two fruits, an
egg, a generous serving of whole
grain cereal, a serving of meat, fish
or cheese, plus large quantities of
other foods to satisfy the appetite
and to cause normal gain in
weight. Mother Briggs smiled
when she thought Of trying to sat
isfy Tom Juniors appetite-at
times it seemed humanity impossi-
BILE.
The carbohydrate foods-break-
fast cereals, macaroni, potatoes,
bread, simple desserts such as GUS
tards, pudding, or wholesome cook
les helped to satisfy his appetite.
Tom was certainly fond of those
butter cookies. The cookie jar
was almost empty, but Mother
Briggs had another roll Of dough in
the ice box, all ready to cut She
used this recipe:

|, his figures that his two-hundred-
fifty-ton silo earns him over $1,400
per year. Tbs earning is Figured on
the saving in the ration. We also
know that by giving the cows a
succulent feed dixie Stage, their pro-
duction is materially increased.
Some formulas show this increase
to be seventy pounds more butter
per year where cows received silage
Others show that the average COW
will produce one-hundred-fifty gal
Ions more milk per year when she
is fed silage.
At Illinois Experiment Station
they have conducted test which
shows that good corn silage, proper
ly made, when the corn is at the
dent stage of maturity, produces
the greatest amount of beef with
greater economy. This saving runs
from three to six dollars per head.
They were also able to produce
finer quality of beef which received
a higher price in the market.
The Ohio Experiment Station
showed the earning of the silo
through saving in cost in terms of
acre profits. The formula they pro-
duced, was; namely, that an acre of
corn ensiled will earn $1,000 more
than when not ensiled, when corn
is fed to fattening steers. BY aver
aging many tests where silage was
used in the ration compared with
dry feeding, the saving amounted
to over $1.00 on the cost of produc-
i ing hundred pounds of beef Such
a cost cannot be ignored by the
stock keepers, especially this year
when our cost of ration is so much
greater.
This is a machine age. The silo is
the machine for the stock keeper,
and is certainly a vehicle which
produces a larger profit in the
stock business. The item of farm
relief is better farming. That
