Silage Rates High
For Dairy Cows

SILAGE MAY BE the most econoni-
cal and efficient form for feeding al
falfa to dairy COWS, according to a
bulletin released by the Montana Agri-
cultural Experiment Station Bulletin
No. 513, ''The Feeding Value of AL
falfa for Dairy Cows When Harvested
by Four Different Methods" may be
obtained from county Extension Of
fees.
The following summary and con-
illusions are taken from the bulletin:
ga 4O-acre field of alfalfa located
in the Gallatin Valley was divided into
four equal areas and the forage har-
vested as loose hay, baled hay, chopped
hay, and silage. The feeding value of
alfalfa harvested by each of these A
methods was then determined using
% milking cows divided into groups
of cows each. There were Holsteins
and Jerseys in each group.
1.-THE same grain ration was fed to
all the cows in each group. The HoI-
stems were fed grain at a rate of
pound per day for each 4 pounds Of
milk produced. The Jerseys were fed
1 pound of grain per day for each 8
pounds of milk produced. A composite
sample of each forage was analysed
each Today period to determine the
total digestible nutrients consumed by
the cows in each group.
"A larger quantity Of fat-corrected
milk was produced by the group of
cows fed the chopped forage, the next
largest amount by the group of COWS
fed silage. The group of cows fed loose
hay consumed the largest amount Of
total digestible nutrients, followed by
the cows fed chopped hay, baled hay
and silage, respectively.
''The group of cows fed silage ranked
first in feed efficiency. They produced
la pounds of Fem. per pound of
TD.N. consumed. The cows fed chopped
hay produced 1.4O pounds of F .C.M. per

No Teaching Job Available, But :. ;.
By MARTHA NELSON

BACK IN 1910 many eastern young
women took the advice given to young
men, go West, young man, go West"
These girls applied for teaching jobs
in Montana.
Many of the rural schools were far
away from the county seats and could
only be reached by horse stage. But
the spirit of adventure was strong in
these young ladies. They didn't mind
the all-day bunpy ride too much, for
at the dinner stop at the halfway
house and at the end Of the trip they
would be received with very approving
chances from the waiting cowboys.
Many cowboys had their hearts broken
by the teachers.
My sister was one of those adven-
turous girls. She applied to Maggie
Smith in Helena, then county superin-
tendent of Lewis and Clark schools. In
due time my sister received the names
of several clerks of rural schools. She
sent her qualifications to each one -
age and normal school graduation rec
ord. She had had no experience in
teaching.
In few days she received the fol
lowing reply from a county clerk.
''Dear Miss,
I'm very sorry to let you know
that the school board has hired a
teacher, today. But if you can do
a little cooking and are moderately
good looking, come out here any

way. / would be very glad to have
you come"
My sister wrote to Miss Smith, en-
closing the invitation. She should
have kept it for a keepsake. She asked
if that was the way school boards did
business in Montana.
A teachers institute was held in Hell
ena in August, 1910 Maggie Smith
thought the incident was too good to
keep to herself and read the letter
from the county clerk and the letter
she had received from my sister to
the group.
The Helena Independent included the
letters in their write-up of the inSti-
tute. Names, of course. were withheld.
Later my sister accepted teaching
position in the same county, and her
landlady, ranchwoman, told her about
the story of the teacher that appeared
in the Helena Independent. My sister
confessed that she was the girl and told
her who the man was. The landlady
said her husband had travelled to Chi
cago in the caboose of a cattle train
with the writer of the letter. They knew
him very well.
My sister married the landlady's son.
The lonesome clerk of the school board
was never heard from again Every
year another girl came out to teach,
and every year another cowboy jumped
the broom handle.

pound of T.D.N. consumed, while the
same value for those fed loose hay
and those fed baled hay was 124 and
1.2O, respectively. The cows fed silage
also produced more Fem. per pound
of protein consumed than did the other
groups fed the field-cured fOrages.
'It is apparent that the economy
of feeding one type of roughage over
another type would depend to large
extent upon the comparative costs of
production on the farm. If, as in this
investigation, hay were given a value
of $40 per ton and silage 1871 per ton,
silage would be the most economical
roughage."
