BEST IN THE GREEN WOOD. BY

WE HAVE here a novel, mild to
w the point Of tepidness. about a
lady who at the age of SO is griev-
ing over the wild ways Of her younger
sister (aged so. The sister lives in
New York and cultivates young
beaux. The lady lives on farm In
Connecticut and cultivates her lawns.
The two points Of view are made the

Turn to Trench SilOs.

MANS ingenuity rises to meet
N emergencies. This has often
been shown. Out in the drought
being applied to meet the pressing
problem Of stock feed. A trench silo
is being employed for emergency use
in saving damaged crops.
Trench silos are especially adapted
for use on rented farms, where neither
the tenant nor the owner feels justi-
fed In erecting tower Silo. The
trench silo also may be completed on
short notice and with ordinary farm
labor and equipment.
A trench 8 feet deep, so feet long
and averaging 10 feet in width, will
hold about 100 tors Of silage. 1t can
be dug by 3 men, using horses on
wheel or slip scrapers and pillow. in
about days. Ordinarily, no cash
outlay for material is necessary and
the labor cost should not exceed IS
cents for each ton of capacity.
A trench Silo should be located on
well-drained ground. BY digging back
into a hillside and providing a little
slope to the bottom, good drainage
can be provided. Such location is
also best for removing both the dirt
when digging and the silage for feed
ing. The sides, of course, should be
smoothed and tapered. the angle de.
pending upon the soils resistance to
caving. Ordinarily, silo feet wide
at the bottom and 8 feet deep should
be about IL feet wide at the top.
Such silos can be filed more cheaply
than tower silos, as a blower is not
required. Tramping of the silage may
be done with horses. If a silage
cutter cannot be obtained, whole bun
dies of corn may be enSiled in a
trench sllo. Close packing, heavy
tramping, somewhat greener corn, lay
ing the bundles croSswise, and tight
sealing are especially important in
making silage of bundle corn.
The most inexpensive and practical
seal for a trench silo consists, gen.
orally Of about l foot of wet straw
overlaid with a foot Of dirt, which
may be packed down with a heavy
roller. AS the silage settles much
after filling, the trench should be
heaped high with Silage to 3 feet
above the ground level before the
straw and dirt are put on.
