Clem Deaver, emigration ex pert of the Burlington Route, has ad dressed a strong appeal to the farm ers of the country to build silos and by ending waste add substantially to the profit from their corn crop. Mr. Deaver is recognized as one of the greatest agricultureal authorities in the country, and bis counsel is in variably based on experience and ob servation covering a wide latitude. Here is his counsel to the farmers: By D. Clem Deaver. Think of itl Sane, sensible men— by the hundreds and by the thous ands—are working hard almost the Ui.l year round, raising and caring for a highly valuable crop—and then de liberately wasting from 30 per cent I# to 40 per cent of the gross results -r-"{, of their labor. -, Ar\ it's the corn crop. And that they're making a good, solid bunch of profits. It's hard to believe, but it's true. $ There is 110 other business on the face rf the earth that will give a pro fltafter wasting 30 to 40 per cent ofthe possible Income—but corn raising will. The whole-trouble Is that a large r,r-ir-?r 7726 percentage of farmers either won't or don't build silos. They arn't cut ting the corn after the season and storing it away as a rich fodder to increase their incomes the year round. Profit From One Acre. Just for instance: One acre of good Illinois or Iowa corn land will produce 12 tons of corn silage. This Eame 12 tons of rich feed, with hay, will fed 2 milk cows for 10 months. If properly cared for otherwise, these cows will bring their owner anywhere from $150 to $190 from the sale of cream alone/ during the 10 months, to say nothing of the two calves that can be raised, nor con sidering the value of the skimmed milk for pig or chicken feed. And it might be said right here that n'o other business will return such quick and handsome profits as feeding skimmed milk to pigs and chickens. This same 12 tons of' rich corn silage with hay will put 2,400 pounds weight on 50 Iambs in 125 days— which at 7 cents per pound, would be worth $168. Feeding it to 4 steers, 153 day•„ fitting them to top the market, *ould easily: increase their marke.t ^vahle 1170.00. *', 'V '-r^wrn^m: 1 1 ri?t THURSDAY, FRIDAY and SATURDAY of This Week, we are showing some unusually pretty Easter models in Ladies' and Misses1 Suits and Coats.

Number 7007, the illustration on the right, is a loose fitting coat of heavy blue serge, 54 inches long. Made in the usual faultless Palmer way. Price $10.50 7513 •f Shoes Another fact to be taken into con sideration by cattle feeders is that it is not at all necessary to run hogs with cattle to insure a safe margin of profit when feeding corn silage. In this way all danger of loss from hog cholera is eliminated. How to Stop Waste. All waste from the feed lot should be carefully returned to the acre that grew the corn—thus preventing loss of soil fertility. These are some of the things that can be done to stop one of the biggest wastes on the farm. When you stop' to consider that the entire 12 tons of corn silage can be put in the silo at the cost of only $25, you get an idea of what a tremendous saving it means. Ten acres of corn silage would accomplish Just ten times as much. There are innumerable other ways and methods of getting more money out of a farm—but considering the hugh saving accomplished by a silo, a splendid slogan for the farmers of today would be: "Farmers! Build Silos! Don't Wait! Do It Now!" Whethera miss is as good as a mile dependsupon the miss. 'i Vs #rf '"tntx .fitf -tf THE LEON REPORTER, THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1912.
