Doing As You Like

Another mistake about right and
wrong is to suppose that if thing
appeals to you strongly enough it
must be right-for you One mans
meat is another mans poison, you
will be told. If it is pleasant, that
is a sign it is good; if it is I'M
pleasant, that is a sign it is bad,
or wrong. Now everybody knows
how silly this is, when they see
some one else putting up this kind
of excuse. But when it comes
home to ones own self, one sings
a different tune We hear talk like
this. Il have a right to De hap
by, haven't l? You can't eX-
pect me to sacrifice my own in
terests Something l want so
much can't be very wrong
I'm in the grip of something too
big for me After all, I've got
myself to consider If you
knew how much this means to me
YOU wouldn't blame me :" and
so forth and so forth Now there
is a grain of truth-no more than
a grain, mind youth this kind Of
philosophy Of life. Certainly the
opposite is wrong, too: if the pleas
ant is not always the same as the
good. the unpleasant it not always
good either. Stuff you hate to eat
may be good for you dixie spin
ach) or it may be bad for you
dixie UNDERGONE sausage). In an
ideal life, a person would love to
do what is right to be done, he
would not hate it. Still it does not
follow that duty is always delight
full, or that the kick" we get out
of something is measure Of how
right it is for us.

In Alfalfa SiIage
By DON r. BOSLEY
By DON r. BOSLEY

floor and sidewalks but the dirt walls
have stood so firm that concreting has
been unnecessary and layer Of gravel
has proved to be adequate surface for
the floor.
In filling his silo Holman uses a
direct-cut forage harvester with two
seIf-unIoading forage boxes mounted
on trucks to haul the Silage to the silO.
A tractor equipped with a bulldozer
levels the Silage at the SilO and keeps
it well packed.
After trying barley and m0lasses as
preservatives, Holman found that table
sugar is as inexpensive and effective as
any and more convenient to use. He
found that as little as 215 pounds to the
ton is effective.
Automatic Feed Wagons
In feeding Holman uses manure
loader on a small tractor to load the
silage into one of the Self-unlOading
forage boxes equipped with a mixer
that delivers the feed from one side.
Since the silo is 38 feet wide there is
plenty of room for the tractor-loader
and the forage truck to maneuver in it.
When the forage wagon is loaded
with silage the desired proportion of
barley of other supplement is spread
over the top of the load. This becomes
thoroughly mixed as the wagon I'M
loads.
Holman finds that grass silage is
better feed for cattle than hay because
none of it is wasted and in addition to
providing full nourishment it acts as
an appetizer He reports that after
feeding of silage cows will go out in
most any weather and Craze, whereas
after a feeding of hay they would be
inclined to stay around the feeding
area.
Whether the si1age is fed from
troughs, as it is for calves. or fed on
the ground, as it is for cows and steers,
it is slicked up as clearly as a plate
wiped with bread. There isn't a crurnb
Of waste.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1955-05-15

STEVE HOLMAN, Phillips County
purebred Hereford breeders, believes
in alfalfa silage. He believes in it to
the extent that he raises nothing else
on his Milk River Valley place. He put
up over 5000 tons last year and he
feeds it to everything, cows, calves
and his expensive bullS-Over 1000 head
in all.
And he's used alfalfa silage for fat
tening steers, too. In fact he plans to
go into feeding more extensively from
now on. Last fall he put three car
loads of steers in lot. BY late Febru-
airy he had finished them out and mar
keted them at an average of 1,O46
pounds. Estimated gains were 21k
pounds day. The daily ration con-
sisted of / pound of protein cake, 80
pounds of silage and up to is pounds
of rolled barley. There was no case of
bIoat.
with alfalfa silage and other low
cost, home grown feeds, think we can
compete with the corn belt in the feed
ing business" Holman declares.
500 Acres of Alfalfa
Holman will have about 500 acres
in alfalfa this year and every foot of
this acreage has been leveled and
border-diked so that "a 12-year-old can
do the irrigating" And that's not an
idle phase, as a 12-year-old actually
did do much of the irrigating last sea-
SON.
All of the alfalfa will be put up as sill
age Holman also believes in feeding
some hay with his silage but he buys
what hay he needs, as he prefers blue
joint
Holman has built an above-g ground
trench SilO. 1t is $50 feet long, SO feet
wide and from IL to IA feet deep. There
was no side hill on the place in which
to dig the silo, so he built a hill in a
spot and scooped the Silo

show business-but it's early
yet" said the singer. II had
good management right from
the beginning. A cigarette

my agent wouldn't let me
take it. You're not ready he
told me-"
Broods on Toxes
There should be a different
kind of taxation for actors,
MacRae believes. 1T takes IL
years to get to where you make
a lot of money, then maybe
you make 81 million in two
years. You have to give most
of it back in taxes; then you
start going down, and where
are you?" He told me that
George Murphy had recently
been to Washington on this
matter, "and we're hoping he
can work something out. to
see if actors can get to keep
some of the money they earn"
When Gordon quit Warmers
he still had a year to go on
his contract. But I've always
liked Jack Warner and his
son-in-law. Bill Orr. so I told
Jack, "I'll be back on the lot
any time I want to, and I don't
want to be stopped by a cop
and asked, Who are you?'"
Apart from his pictures,

Of the top five movie golfers
Hope, Crosby, Forrest Tucker
and Johnny Weissmuller are
the others. He's also In buSi-
ness-owns an oil drilling COM
pany, three other companies
and a TV producing business.
In conclusion: II try to be
to my kids like my dad was to
me. Whatever they want to be
they can be. And if they are
good at acting, they can even
get to meet the President.

Gordon recently finished his

"They told me, after signing,
that I had the role all along,
but they made me wait while
they argued about. money

are with the singer. The role
