MOLD REPORTED IN SILAGE Trouble Occurs Only Where Air Is Present, Generally Caused by Lack of Water. The usual number of complaints are corning in regarding the present'«* of mold In silage. Mold can grow only when air is present. Air generally gets in ax the result of the silage lie- Ing too dry when put Into the silo. If waler was added, not enough was tixetl. Poor parking may cause the some trouble. Mold around the doors and against the wall is the result, of poor construction of the silo which allows air to enter. Nothing can be done now to remedy the condition. At the next lining lime sptolsl care should be taken to see tlmt I lie corn contains enough moisture and that It Is well trumped. It Is nlwuys xiifcst to reject moldy silage especially for horses and sheep, although for cuttle there iwmt to be little danger.- <’. II.

From Boston three years ago the American Forestry «*»<>- via I lo<> of Washington seut iiiilhoua of tree seeds to France, Great Britain and Belgium to take the place of their comrades who fell in the World war. The tine spirit with which the unique present was received Is shown In the report of Arthur Newton Pack of Prtncrtmx N. J., to the American For estry association, which cnmmlnloaed him tn go to Euro|>e. made public by the association following hla three months' tour. In thia report Is the following general order by the French ministry: "The plantations made from the s.ssl presented to us by the American Forestry assoctatlon should be located In place«« readily accessible to the main traveled roads and. If possible, mi or near well-known ulte», with the view that such future forests retua In as a monument to the partnership ot France und America In the errat war." In the British Isles, which lost the most forest cover because It was there rnttlng was done on a whqlesals scale to meet liie demands of war, the same good feeling prevails. In Belgium, too, the work Is going for ward, and in the mice lieaullftll Ar dennes mountains, where German axes left nothing standing, patches of American duuglas llr nro rearing their heads where ouge was the mark of the German heel.
