To obtuiu satisfactory results silage i^ist tie in perfect condition when fed. Hinoe fermentation soon takes place wheu silage is exposed to the air the silo should not be o f too groat di ameter. Not more than eight square feet of surface should be allowed for each cow In winter; then, when feed ing forty pounds of silage per cow, a layer about one anti one-half inches deep should be fed off daily. When silage is fed in summer it is advisable that tlie exposed area be not over half tliis si-?©, so that a layer three inches deep may lie used daily. However much stock Is to he fed, a silo twenty to twenty-two feet in diameter is as large as should be built. I f a .silo is of g-eatcr diameter than this, much of the silage is at too great a distance from the door, increasing the labor of removal. The deeper the silo the greater the pressure and the more compactly will the silage be pressed together, hence the larger the amount that can be stored per cubic foot. For example, a silo tweuty feet lu diameter and forty feet deep will hold twice as much as one of the same diameter and twenty- five feet deep. This shows the econ omy of reaonably deep silos. To be well proportioned the height should not I k » more than twiee the diameter. No silo should he less than thirty feet deep, and to get sufficient depth for a silo not ocer twelve feet In diameter It may be placed four or five feet in the ground.

In our herd improvement we will breed and feed for such size only in the dairy cow as shall enable her to perform the physical labors we put upon her. We will remember that, un like the poet's “1111111 with the hoe,” she is not “ brother to the ox," but Ills sister, and that upon her In no stren uous physical sense rests the yoke or the bunlea of the ox. Her obligations are the gentler, more refined ones of maternity. She should not be the pro ducer of the raw materi.fl on the farm or Its harvester. She is the changer of the crude material into the highest quality of finished food products. Tru ly one of nature’s greatest wonders Is the work of the cow! In our breeding, therefore, we will want to produce a cow of robust health without In the least unnecessary degree sacrificing her femininity. We will try to more encourage and stimulate her ability to consume, digest and assimilate the products of our fields lu the largest profitable quantities.—W. F.
