Grass SiIoge Use

The United States Department
Of Agriculture reports rapid in
crease in grass silage making
during the past few years. The
increase has been from Is million
tons in 1914 to eight million tons
in 1851, when latest figures are
available.
U. S. D. A. gives the following
three reasons for the rapid
growth:
/. Increased acreage and yield
Of grassland crops.
2. Need for preserving more
and better feed for livestock.
3. Better methods of harvest

All grass silages properly made
from fresh green crops, or with
dry materials added, will provide
enough carotene. if fed literally.
to produce milk with a good yell
low color and high vitamin A
content. Wilted silage will also
contain enough carotene for the
production Of high vitamin A milk,
if properly made from an early
cut crop.
Maximum utilization Of pasture
and low-cost grass silage will pro-
vide the lowest feed cost. Grass
silage with a moderate moisture
content Cos to IS per cent? made
from forage cut at an early stage
OF maturity will come nearest
meeting all the essential require
ments OF such a program, U.S.D.A.

Know-How' Pushes

Modern 'know-how" is enabling
farmers to produce twice as
much per worker as their grand
fathers did generation ago.
Forty years ago. each farm
worker produced enough crops to
feed eight people. Today he pro-
duces enough to support IS peo-
pie. In 1912, IS per cent OF the
nations population was on farms.
Today less than is per cent Of the
people live on farms.

Forty years ago a farm work

'know-how' production. today he

mate there will be 100 million
people to feed by 1875. This means
an verincreasing demand for
foods and fibers. This increased
farm output must be produced on
existing acres. for there is virtu-
ally no new land to put into crops.
The key to this increased farm
output is the greater use of fer
tilizer. The U. S. Department of
Agriculture reports that IS per
cent OF our total farm production
IS directly due to the use OF fer
tilizers. This will increase in the
years ahead. AS crop yields per
acre go up, production costs per
unit go down, giving the farmer a
higher net income per acre.
