Cow Feed for 1882

Success in the stock business is
largely determined by the cost of
the ration, for unquestionably the
greatest item of expense of stock
keeping is the cost Of the feed. To
make a profit from stock with the
present low prices requires care
full planning and looking ahead in
order to make the ration ample and
at the same time to grow and store
it at the lowest cost.
When pastures are lush and
green as we find them usually in
May and June we forget the hot
dry season of late summer, when
the grass turns brown, the flies
are bad, and the animals are hard
pressed to find sufficient food for
even their maintenance. We also
forget the ample supply of cheap
succulent forage which should be
stored up for the next twelve
months feed supply.
If the stock keeper is equipped
with silos he is in position to take
care of the forage, putting it in the
best possible condition for both
storage and feeding; If he does not
have silo he certainly ought to
look into this well-established meth
cd of feeding.
From the great number Of expert
ments and tests comparing the val
ue of silage feeding with dry field

STOPPING AT THE STATE LINE

Strange strategy is being planned by some Min
nesoa Republicans, If the st. Peter Herald is rightly
informed. This newspaper, published down where
some very resourceful Republicans are now sum-
mering in preparation for busy season, makes this
astounding prediction: Minnesota Republicans
planning to center the state ticket next election
and to leave the national republican campaign in
allegiance, according to the latest sentiments
pressed. The need of winning the state back into
the republican column is felt paramount regard
less Of the outcome of the national campaign"
The folks who plan to direct the festivities next
year potent in politics and shrewd but it might
be better to slow their intention of not invit
ing the presidential candidate to the party. The
Hoover regime has not delivered the right amount
Of rain in some quarters nor glowing sunsets in
others, both of which were solernnly promised in
campaign pledges by enthusiastic workers in 1928
1t has, however, given good account of itself in
the fields of legislation and administration, in the
performance of work which it might properly be
pected to do. The President is stronger with the
voters now than he months back. There
are indications of growing understanding and APP
probation of the difficult work he has done WELL
under most trying conditions
1t is entirely possible that Minnesota Republi-
cans" will find it of advantage to themselves to ride
along with the President in the next campaign. AS
practical matter, they will find it impossible to
limit their party support within state boundaries
success is of an interest to them.

OUR NORTHERN WATER LEVELS

Wadena Pioneer Journal
According to the United States district engineer
in charge Of the headwaters of the Mississippi basin
it may take four five years to fill the Leach and
Winnibigoshish reservoirs unless favored
with greater precipitation than has been the
the past year two. This is disconcerting to
the people Of Northern Minnesota, and espec-
tally to those who financially interested in the
tourist business because the two lakes above named
are the natural feeders for innumerable bodies of
water farther south That being the case it would
seem that everything humanity possible should be
done to bring about agreement between Mime
apolis and ST. Paul in the matter of sewage disposal
so that it will not be necessary for those cities
continue drawing upon the meager water supply Of
Northern Minnesota's lakes for sewage diution pur
poses. Governor Olson should give the Twin Cities
reasonable time in which to reach agreement
in the matter of apportoning the costs to the two
cities in installing sewage disposal system and
should they fail to reach such agreement the gov
ernor should by all means call special session of
the legislature without loss of time, thereby putting
it to the disinterested members from other parts
of the state to settle the matter 1t is anifestly
fair to Northern Minnesota that this most important
project be put until the next regular session
the legislature for disposition. It's settlement has
already been too long delayed

UNGRATEFUL FRANCE

If further evidence required to show the

thing American, it was furnished last week in the
election of Paul Doumer as president over the bril-
liant Aristide BRAND The principle argument adj

his election, the fact that the press of the
United States had referred to Brands candidacy in
complimentary terms The mere fact that the Amer
lean public regarded with favor the broad states
manship displayed by BRAND in his sincere effort
to bring about more amicable relations among the
nations of Europe sufficient to ruin his hopes for
The antagonistic attitude of France towards
America is of the engmas of the age. But for
the intervention and help of the United States in
the World War, the French Republic would probably
longer be in existence. 1t the valor of Amer
lean arms and America money that saved France
from complete humiliation. Under the Versailles
treaty France grabbed the major portion of the booty
and enriched herself at the expense of her allies
From that day this the French have been engaged
in studied effort to minimize the part that the
United States played in the She accords to
credit whatever for the victory of the Allies but
arrogates to herself all the glory.
France is today the wealthiest nation in Europe
She has larger gold reserve than all of the other
European nations combined and is spending
her military establishment than all the rest She
is unwilling to entertain any suggestion for re-
ducton in the outrageous reparations that she is de-
handing from Germany and at the time she
is trying to welch"on the debt that she to the
United tSates. In short, she is nursing course
that is sounding the depths Of infamy.
And yet in face of these very apparent facts
Americans continue to spend their vacations in Paris
where they systematically mulcted by the Par
isians. 1t is high time that citizens should
awake to realization of the situation. AS matter
of selfrespect Americans should in the future give
France wide berth and refuse spend their money
in country that has given many evidences of its
antipathy towards us. Our administration should no
longer follow policy of leniency towards France
in the payment of the war debt due us. Not one
cent of Frances debt to should be cancelled and
should insist that she promptly meet every pay

vatively that the silage method will
save ten cents per pound on the
cost of producing a pound of but
ter fat, and a dollar and quarter
on the cost of producing hundred
pounds of beef; thus dairy or
stock farmer can easily figure what
a silo will pay him. I have used
a large number of tests reported at
"a number of different experiment
stations over a period of twenty
years, and offer the following de-
duction: a hundred ton silo on the
average stock farm will pay three
hundred and fifty dollars per year
over the dry method of feeding.
The pastures this year are not up
to normal, due to the great drowth
of 1880, and it will take another
season Of average rainfall to put
them in shape. AS silage is the
best known substitute for pasture,
the average stockkeeper will find a
sumner supply very good invest
ment; for nearly every season
there is drowthy period when lit
tie feed is available.
Corn fodder and slower will not
take the place Of silage; this has
been thoroughly tested out by a
number of experiment stations. IL
linois found silage worth 81 per
cent more than corn fodder. Ne
braska found silage worth 20 per
cent more than corn slower; and
Kansas in testing Kafir fodder with
Kafir silage found that by ensiling
the Kafir they obtained $500 more
per acre. These were all in beef
feeding tests, but about the same
results could have been obtained II
dairy animals had been used.
In a Pennsylvania test where a
large number of dairy herds were
used, it was found that cow re-
ceiving silage would product $50
gallons of milk more than where
not receiving silage. In Kansas the
farm management studies reported
results of observation on ST. farms.
In this great test it was found that
where the silo was used, dairy cat
tie showed an average per head
earning of $19.03 greater per year
than where the silo was not used.
Where economy in feeding is nee
essary, and present-day conditions
certainly require this, then the silo
must be considered. Wisconsin
many years ago found this out, and
today you will find in that state
114,O00 silos in use. In planning
the stock feed for the coming year
arrange to have enough silage for
at least eight months of feeding.
