Silage cut at the right time and kept in a good silo is one of the most economical and palatable feeds which can be fed to the dairy cow. It is economical because a large amount of food nutrients can be raised to the acre in the corn crop, and these nutrients can be handled and stored in a most economical and convenient way when the corn is cut and put in the silo. Another point which is of considera- ble value is the action which the corn undergoes when placed in the silo. This 18 a fermenting process during which the sugar in the corn is changed to several aclds. This softens the fibers, makes the protein more digesti-" ble and adds desirable flavors. The proper time for cutting corn is when the majority of the ears are in the “glazed stage.” If cut for silage at an earlier period it contains such a OUTTING CORN FOR SILAGE. high percentage of sugar that the re- sult will be silage containing such a large amount of acid that it will be unpalatable. It i8 much better to make the mistake of cutting too late rather than too early, as the only ob- Jection to late cutting is the loss of moisture, with the result that the stalks contain too much air and are liable to mold. This may be remedied by the addition of water while the silo 18 being filled. Corn when cut during the “silk stage” contains practically half the amount of dry matter and food nutri- ents as corn that is cut for the silo from seven to fourteen days after the kernels have begun to glaze. This em- phasizes the importance of allowing the ears to get well glazed before the corn s cut for silage. Stacking Clover. Clover left in the windrow overnight and turned once or twice the following forenoon 1 ready for the stack or the mow the second afternoon after cut- ting. If the weather looks rainy it should be placed in cocks, covered well and left for some time. It is best to open the cocks and permit them to air awhile before taking to the stack. BUILD THE SILO NOW. Because it saves the whole crop, in- sures “June pasture” in winter, saves labor and storage space, doubles farm capacity for live stock, prevents waste in feeding, saves a frozen corn erop and makes better use of grain feed possible, build a silo. The silo promises a safe place to store corn that is overtaken by frost when in the milk stage. The crop will then.make a.fairly good quality of si- lage if it 13 cut into the silo at once. The silo furnishes succulent, palata- ble feed of uniform quality that is al- ways near at hand. The silo preserves the corn crop with the minimum amount of loss, as the entire plant is made fit for food. The silo doubles the number of dairy or beef animals that can be kept on a farm. The silo economizes space, time and building costs in providing storage room for the crop. The silo equalizes the supply of feed by carrying a surplus over in good con- dition from one year to another. The silo can be used for ensiling clover or alfalfa during a spell of wet ‘weather, when it would be impossible to cure it for hay. The silo furnishes the most econom- ical, convenient feed for supplement- ing short pastures during a period of drought.—Better Farming.
