AGENT GIVES SILO LESSONS Sheridan County is raiding corn this year than ever before and nearly every farm has several acres of corn planted and which corn has reached a luxuriant growth at this time and with proper care will solve the feed bill for the next year for the stock. The biggest drawback with silos is their cost and lack of available money to build them. the below described silo would solve this problem. jvh. Stebbins gives the following in f orma tion regarding the uses and con s t luc tion of the trench silo: use f u i ne as of a silo of some hind for th*preservation of succulent w j nter t or livestock is w'ell rec oCT 1 j ze ,p Corn and sunflowers are be • prown ira every part of VaMey C ounty with great success and the question that is being considered by a ,; U mber of farmers and stockmen who havp pi . osp eots for a crop of corn ftnd Bun fl owers this year is how best t them for winter feed, Some stockmen are able to provide the regular above-ground silo, structed either of tiles, concrete or staves. These are all goo«l. Others w jj| no doubt put down pit silos but s till others will hesitate to invest the money and labor required for either of these standard types of silos until they have had more experience, tor such, the trench silo offers a satisfact ory solution. The work can be done during weather unsuitable for thresh ing and there is no cash outlay. The trench silo consists of an exca more It would seem con vation about eight feet deep and six teen feet wide and any length desired. Since a cObic foot of silage weighs about 35 pounds, one running foot of the trench will hold 8x16x35 pounds or 4480 pounds, the equivalent of 2.25 tons. Thus bv dividing the number of tons by 2.24 we find the length wanted in feet. For example, we have 100 tons to put in. We divide 100 by the 12.24 w hich gives 44.6, the correct length. If 40 pounds of silage is fed per day per head, a ton of silage will serve one cow 50 days, or 10 cows for five days. Thus, 100 tons of silage rould feed 10 cows 500 days or 20 cows for 260 days at 40 PpumMHch per day. These figures will be helpful in making estimates, although, o^ practice one would fee«! heavier than others and will o is o 3 i w course, in . .. VP feed a little more or less silage ac ■ding to the amount of other feed available. "To fill the silo, it 4 necessary to have a silage cutter and an engine. An 18-inch cutter can be operated by a 10-20 horsepower engine if care is used in feeding, but if a more powerful engine is available it wil do the work faster. One cutter should be able to do the work for feur farms a season. silage de coi "Success in preserving pends upon packing well to keep the air out. Silage spoils where too much air gets in. This is fundamental. Uie rilage is run into the trench, and is packed by tramping. The trench is filled to the top «nd heaped or round ed up so that as the sihige settles it will still leave the trench full. Aftei this it is covered with straw two oi three feet deep. When ready to feed it is opened at one end instead of being fed off the top as a regular silo. The U. S.
