TO GROW SUFFICIENT SILAGE Experts Assert It Is Better to Care- fully Figure on Silo to Fit Herd of Cows. (Prepared by tho United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) The planting season is the time { when the dalry farmer should arrange to see that he has crops enough to fill his silo. As a case in point, a Missis- sippi farmer failed to take this matter into consideration when he bought a silo of 60 tons’ capacity, for he found that he had corn and sorghum for only 20 tons of silage; and since, more- over, he had only 8 cows, he decided he had made a mistake, and tried to sell his new silo instead of setting it up. A field man from the dairy divi- of . Agriculture however, persuaded him to keep it until the next year, and to put up a small stave silo for imme- diate use. He did so, and found it suich a help in feeding his cows cheap- Iy that he bought more land and re- solved to enlarge his herd to 50 cows, and thus make good use of his larger silo. Both the height and the diameter of the silo must be considered. The proper diameter of the silo depends upon the quantity of silage to be fed dnily; and this quantity will vary with the size of the herd. The silage should be fed out fast ehough to re- move it from the top of the silo at the rate of 114 to 8 inches a day, depend- ing «upon climatic conditions. The warmer the weather the more silage must be removed from the surface Gaily in order to prevent spoiling. For the winter feeding season it is safer to figure upon removing 2 inches daily than any smaller amount. A common error in building is to make the diameter too large for the size of the herd. The weight of a cubie foot of silage varies according to the pressure to which it is sub- jected, but in a silo 30 feet high the weight per cubic foot averages about 40 pounds. So, by knowing the quan- tity of silage to be fed daily, it is pos- sible to estimate: what the diameter of the silo should be to permit the removal of a certaln number of inches each day. The table below shows the proper diameter of the silo, on a basis of 40 pounds of silage per cubic foot, Z [White Wax Onions Lemons, buy them now' for the Fourth, a doz.. .62¢| RICHELIEU Jams, Jellies, Canned Fruits and Coffee just|: received.

The amount of” silage that may be ob- tained from an acre of corn varies from 4 to 20 tons. A fair allowance on average land is 8 tons per acre. Hence for a 60-ton silo it might be | well to plant 8 or 10' acres of corn. It is by all means best to lay out land enough in silage crops to fill the silo to the very top; and if there i& any doGbt about hew much will bé necded, to atow a margin of safety, remembering that the season may cut down the yield of this as well as of other crops. - On the other hand, if there is too much corn 6r, Sorghum to go into the silo, the excess can be cut as dry fodder,” and other crops can be made into hay.

She Meant Well. X To say the fitting thing in-acknowl- edgment of a favor is something of a tax on the conversational powers of most people; when the recipient is un- familiar with the conventional phrases used or gets confused in using them, comical situations oceur, as in this in- stance reported:jn Harper’s Magazine. Two sisters of a deceased cook called to acknowledge the flowers sent by the family. “We came to thank you for those beautiful flowers that you sent for sister,” said the elder woman; and then, with a little stut- ter, she added, “and we' hope soon to be able to return the favor."—From the Outlook.
