Top Quality Silage
But the rest of the silage turned out
to be top quality.
So, come the first of November, ne
put 40 head of calves into the lot. He
started them out on A pounds of oats
a day and they started eating their
way through the alfalfa silage. They
had access to mineralized salt and
plenty of water from the electric water
tank.
Later he shifted to steamed, rolled
barley and increased the feed to
pounds day. Everything seemed to
work fine. The calves spent most of
their time lolling contentedly in the
sun. They ate the silage all right. There
wasn't speck of waste and all Ku-
bitza had to do was push the movable
stanchiOn up to the silage now and
then.
He worried bit about whether they
were eating enough. The stanchion did
not seem to move back very FAST
Though the silo is arranged so that it
could be opened at both ends, he used
only one end. This seemed to be plenty
of room for the 40 head, so he is con-
fident that he will be able to run 80
to 100 head in the lot as planned, with
the stock feeding from both ends.
III Pounds Gain
The calves were sold the first of
ApriI-just before the blizzard. They
had eaten half the silage, an average
of Is pounds day. There had been no
bloat, no feed trouble but the final
weights were just $3.50. The average
gains were III pounds for the $50 days
(12O on grain). He had hoped for at
least $50 pounds.
If he continues with alfalfa si1age,
Kubitza plans to use barley or sugar
as a preservative. 1t may not improve
the quality of the Silage much but it
should make it more palatable. And if
he continues with alfalfa silage he'll
feed it to steers instead of calves. He
calves can do better on corn
siIage In fact, he wants to try some
corn silage. Maybe alfalfa is good, but
he figures it'll take him few more
years to find out for sure how good.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1955-05-15
Alfalfa Silage Is Good, But
It Presents Problems, Too

ALFALFA-BROME Silage seems to
be pretty good feed but, on the basis
of his one year of experience in putting
it up and feeding it, Ed Kubitza, Blaine
County; isn't inclined to sing its praises
too loudly. He had difficulties in put
ting it up and his feeding results were
just average.
He thinks he can solve the Difficult
ties, however, and he has theories
about how he might get better results.
First of all he found he was short
of power when it came to operating
his new direct-cut, shredder-type for
age harvester He was little late get
ting into his fields and, since they had
been well irrigated and well fortified
with phosphate, the crop was heavy.
Operating his chopper from the power
takeOff of 2-plow tractor, he could
take less than half of the machines
normal 6-foot swath. Even then he was
frequently choking down.
Difficulties at SiIO
But he had even more difficulties at
the silo. Chopped alfalfa is heavy and
sticky He had one forage wagon that
unloaded automatically from the pow
er take-off. This worked with perfect
satisfaction. But his second wagon had
to be unloaded with false endgate
pulled with cable. Though the box
was metal-lined, it was almost inn
possible to bulge the load at times.
His silo is a bunker type built right
in his feed lot so the silage can be
settled It is 100 feet long, Is feet wide
at the bottom and the walls are feet
high When it was first built, he looked
down that 1OO-foot vista of walls and
wondered how he would ever fill it. He
had only about so acres of alfalfa.
But 80 acres (about $50 tons) proved
to be all he could get in. This was
partly because the yield was SO heavy
and partly because he filled it only to
about the 6-foot level At this point the
sides were beginning to spread and he
felt so teetery with the packing tractor
at that height that he didn't dare run
the wheels fully out to the side. The
result was that the sides weren't too
well packed and there was about :
foot of SpOilage. He used no covering
