SILO THAT PROVED
A MONEY MAKER
After a few years of careful thought
and consideration ou the question of
putting In the silo I ut last Itonylit a
good bIIo secondhand at u public Bale,
writes u Pennsylvania farmer In tiie
American Agriculturist
I plant my corn about one-fourth
thicker than for a regular crop, as 1
want many good, large ears in tho
feed. When planted too thick the
sterns are too light and I do not get
enough corn for a good feed. The
silage if properly cut into short lengths
and well packed .so as to admit of no
air to It will be juicy and nutritious,
and. being palatable, cattle will thrive
well on it and come out in the spring
in good llesh and shed their hair much
sooner than cattle kept alone ou dry
feed. '
1 begin to cut corn for silage when
near the ripening stage Just when the
corn on the ear is dented and nearly
lit to cut for shocking and before the
lower leaves have died off too much.
At this stage I seem to get about all
the feeding value out of it. and there
Is still enough moisture in the stalk to
make it pack well in the silo. If com

gets too dry add enough water to make
it pack well. When I am ready to
Gil the silo I try to get enough 'help to
keep a cutter and engine busy.
There is much to be gained by hav
ing an extra man or more to handle
the corn, for it is a heavy job. I aim
to have two men in the silo to tramp
and pack it well and distribute the
corn and leaves into all parts of the
silo. My silo is the round stave silo
of cedarwood. and I figure I can grow
the corn under ordinary conditions
and put It into the silo for $1.50 a
ton. and I also figure that every ton
of silage is worth $-1 to $5 a ton when
compared with other feeds. 1 live ou
a farm of l.'JO acres, where I grow a
variety oT crops, such as corn follow
ed by oats, followed by wheat, and
occasionally a second crop of wheat
with which 1 seed over land to grass,
timothy and clover. This hay 1 had
formerly fed out to my jgtock. The
cows, horses and sheep were also fed
much of the corn and corn stover.
With a silo 1 can now hold over
much more and better feed for my
cows and sheep, and the silage is pro
duced ou much less acreage. This is
a very strong point in favor of the
silo. I can farm better without the
automobile than without a silo. The
fatteners of cattle for beef claim much
larger gains by the use of silage for
feeding. Silage seems to furnish just
what the dairy cow wants and also
what the steer wants for taking on
flesh.
I have paid for the silo many times
over by selling the bay I would have
fed to my cattle, sheep and other stock,
and there is no food to equal good
corn silage if properly put up.
Feed For the Colt.
Too few of the colts on most farms
receive any other means of sustenance
except their mothers' milk till they
are ready to wean, writes a correspond
ent of the Iown Homestead. Of course
the colt will graze some, but it will
not develop and thrive as well on grass
and milk as it would if properly fed on
a little grain and mill feed stuff. We
begin to tempt the colt to eat of a little
grain, mill feeds and clean, bright
roughage Just as soon as possible.
With a small trough containing some
grain and placed where the colt fre
quents, it quickly forms the habit of
eating.
We have found a most satisfactory
feed for the colt to be one part corn
chop, one part bran and two parts oats.
These form a ration that will furnish
bone and muscular tissue for tho young
and rapidly growing body and at the
same time supply sufficient material
for putting on a little fat and keeping
up the heat sometimes necessary.
f THE SWINEHERD,
Never kill a pig for market or
home consumption until It is ripe
for It.
The cause of unthrifty pigs can
often be traced to a til thy swill
barrel.
Prepare to keep the young pigs
growing from the hour they en
ter the world.
Hogs are among the most
cleanly animals If they are giv
en a fair chance.
A lot of hogs in a hog lot well
grown with clover will convey
a lot of money to their owner's
pocket.
Be sure that the hog herd,
large or small, has an abundance
of fresh, clean water to drink all
the time.
The hog that is fed on one
thing all the time makes slow
growth and little pork.

a width of board along the side and

top of the walls with a trowel.
When the tank is two days old care
fully remove the forms. Rub down
the walls with a soft brick and paint
them with a creamy mixture of cement
and water. Five days later the vat
may be used. In the coupling of the
outlet pipe place n section of overflow
pipe nineteen inches long, which will
draw off the warm water at the top of
the tank. The overflow pipe should be
at least one-half inch greater in diame
ter than the Inlet pipe so as to remove
all danger of flooding the milk and the
dairy house. Make a grating of one
inch slats or gas pipe to place on the
bottom of the vat to provide n circula

As an aid in lifting the cans fix a
hand rail at a convenient height above
the tank.
For this vat there will be required
one and one-half yards of crushed
rock or screened gravel, three-quarters
yard of sand and ten bags of cement
at a total cost of about $0. Two men
can build it In one day. Larger cool
ing tanks should have walls six inches
thick. Filled with cool water from
the spring or well, such a vat will
keep the cream sweet and will in many
other ways take the place of an Ice

Hog For the Dairyman.
One of the best breeds of hogs for
the dairyman to wise is the Hamp
shire. He is a good hog anywhere you
put him; but. as he was originally
bred as a bacon hog, ho seems to like
plenty of milk in his diet and is mighty
willing and able to pay for it. Any
god hog is a good hog for a dairy
farmer to keep, and the color of his
hair doesn't matter. So - select the
breed you like liest and st.iy with It,
and It will stay with you.

It Is Billions of Timei Smaller Than
the Tiniest Atom.
We know that the big telescopes,
aided by the photographic plate,
roveul stars to the number .of at
least 100,000,000 lying utterly be
yond the confines of unaided vision.
Now it appears that a pinch of salt
which one could hold on the point
of a penknife is made up of atoms
numbering not hundreds of mil
lions merely, but billions of billions.
The population of atoms in the
smallest particle of matter visible
under the microscope is greater by
far than the total human popula
tion of the globe since the race de
veloped. And a little instrument
composed of two fragments of gold
leaf makes it possible to perform
the miracle of counting these deni
zens of the realm of infinite little
ness. Within the smallest atom there
is something almost 2,000 times
smaller than the atom itself a
something that is detachable from
the atom and susceptible of being
measured as to its mass and tested
as to its electric charge with the
aid of apparatus actually in use in
the laboratory. This ultimate par
ticle of matter is called the electric
corpuscle or electron. We owe our
knowledge of it chiefly to Sir Jo
seph Thomson. It is the smallest
thing in the world, and it is prob
ably the .basal substance out of
which all matter of whatever char
acter is built.
As regards bulk, the electron 13,
according to the French physicist
Jean JRecquerel, billions of billion
of times smaller than the atom. To
make the comparison vivid Bee
quorel likens the electrons in aa
atom to a swarm of gnats gravitat
ing about in the dome of a cathe-
dral. '
As we penetrate thus far and
farther into the realm of the in- .
finitely little, seeing in imagination
the smallest visible particle of mat
ter resolved into myriads of mole
cules, each molecule into 'sundry
atoms and each atom into its teem
ing swarms of electrons, the ques
tion naturally arises, What lies be
yond? Dr. Henry Smith Williams
