II. M. A good silo may bo niado
of any ono of a number of mater

of material Is used, tho success
of the silo doponds very largely
upon proper caro. In tho use of
wood, tho desirability of preser
vative treatment is becoming
generally recognized. In fact,
some ninnufncturcrs are already
treating all of their silo material,
and It Is now possible to pur
chase silos treated and ready to
sot up. Enough Is known of tho
results of treatment of other
forms of lumber to be ablo to
predict that a good treatment of

and brush treatment. In tho
pressure treatment, the wood is
placed in a steel cylinder and tho
oil forced into it at high pres
sure. Although this is the best
method, It is tho most expensive,
as special apparatus is required.
In the open tank method, the
wood is first heated to and held
at a temperature of 180 to 220

and then immersed in a cold oil
