THE USE OF ENSILAGE
Ensilage is relished by most
farm animals. The greatest use
made of it has been for dairy cows
thirty to fifty pounds being fed
each cow daily at the North Dako
ta Experiment Station. It can be!

Get Rid of Your Hay Fever
at Glacier National Park
Low Round Trip Fares Daily
This August make Glacier
National Park the objective of
your hay fever "getaway." Out
there in the Montana Rockies you'll
experience immediate relief from hay
fever annoyances, and you'll enjoy a
royal outing besides.
Delightful hotels-in-the-mountains await
by
fed to beef cattle too but they
should be fed about half as much
as the dairy cattle. Young stock
can be fed ensilage in proportion
to their size. Some grain and hay
should be fed with ensilage. If
the hay is alfalfa, the grain can
auto-stage and launch deep in among
thfe giants of the Continental Divide and
among the glaciers, jaunts a-saddle and a-foot
up skyland trails to the high Passes.
It's glorious weather there—ideal summer days, cool
restful nights.

OVER 4,000 TONS OF ARSENIO
The figures showing the pro
duction of white arsenic in .the
United States in 1914, collected by
Frank L. Hess, of the United
States Geological Survey, indicate:
an output amounting to 4,670.
short tons, valued at $313,147.!
This is somewhat more than was,
shown by the preliminary figures,]
and exceeds th'e largest' previous
output, that of 1913 (2,513 tons,
valued at $150,236) by 46 per.
cent. No direct production of
white arsenic—that is, no pro-'
duction from arsenic minerals
treated primarily for their -arsenic
content—has been made in this
country for several years, be
cause the arsenic saved at the
smelters as a by-product and the
imported material have been_ so
plentiful and 90 cheap that such
production* would have been un
profitable.
The country's arsenic regour-Jwhich
ces are immense. Deposits xf ar-1
senopyrite, the commonest of the
arsenic minerals, are found at
many places, only a few of whicli/
are known to this survey, because

omitted.
Sheep relish a small amount of
ensilage, two or three pounds a
day is a good amount. Some feed
ers give as high as five or six
pounds.
Horses can be fed ten to fifteen
pounds of ensilage a day. It has
a good deal the same effect on
them as pasture. Hogs like a lit
tle ensilage and especially so if
it contains a good deal of corn.
Ensilage is a bulky food a good
deal like pasture in its effect on
the animal. It is important that
it be free from mould as this cau
ses trouble. Horses should not
be fed ensilage that has been
frozen, though with other stock
it seems to be all right provided
it is thawed out before feeding.
Three silos are in use at the
North Dakota Experiment Station.
Good results have been secured in
the feeding of the ensilage.
Ensilage should be cut short.
Half to three quarters of an inch
is better than longer cuts. The
fine cut ensilage will pack better,
which means better keeping and
it also feeds better. It takes more
power to cut into short lengths.
except in years of very high pri
ces they are generally of little or
no value unless accompanied by
precious metals and as high pri
ces have prevailed only at long)
intervals, little notice has been'
taken of the deposits by miners
and prospectors.
DIAMETER OP THE SILO
The diameter of a silo should
be determined by the amount of
ensilage to be fed. If less than1
1 1-5 inches of ensilage are re-'
moved daily, moulding is likely to
start. The warmer the vveather,
the greater the depth of ensilage
that should be removed.In winter
12 dairy cows fed 40 pounds a day
will use up the right amount from
a 14 foot silo, while in summer it
would require 18 cows to use up
the amount of ensilage that
should be removed daily. For the
12 foot silo, 9 cows in winter and
13 in summer for the 16 foot silo,
,17-cows in winter and 25 in sum
mer. 'Let the amount of ensilage
fed daily determine the diameter
of the silo and let the height de
termine the capacity.
A SCHOOL Oft FOOT
A school on foot was in session
for the. week July 19th to 24th in
Williams County. Forty-eight
boys went on a hike under the di
rection of E. W. Hall, County Ag
ent, assisted by Judge A. L. Bus
ier in charge of discipline, W. A.
Peck, County Agent, Ward Coun^
ty and M. B. Johnson,. County Ag
ent, McKenzie County, in charge
of instruction..
The plan was to hike about
eight miles a day, stopping wher
ever there was an object lesson.
It might be. trees, well'or poorly
cared for, crops, barns, silos, hou
ses, fences, stock or r6ads. The
good'points as well as where it
lacked were pointed out. To
wards the last of the trip' the boys
were discussing everything along
the route. They had learned the
things to look for and they had
good ideas as to whether the
things served, the. ^purpose for
intended poorly or well.
