A Substitute for Hell ? % is ‘ a 1———————————— -21 Wilting Method for Silage Is Suggested Experiment, Extreme Care Needed to Make It Work By C. W. BENDER (Profttsor Dairy Husbandry, Rutgara University.) In view of the high price of mo lasses and the scarcity of phos phoric acid for preserving silage, the wilting method of ensiling le gumes, grasses and cereals — a method requiring practically no pre servatives—sounds good. The wilting method will work, but it also takes experimental control and extreme care to make it work. Moisture Content Excess. Farmers experienced at making grass silage know that mold accu mulations, caused by air pockets or air leakage in the silo, often occur even when the silo is filled with material having a moisture content of 72 to 78 per cent. Yet materials with this amount of moisture pack more readily and develop more pres sure than grasses with lower moisture content, and the wilt ing method calls for wilting down the green material to a moisture content of only 65 to 68 per cent. Thus there is a greater danger of mold when the wilting method is used. Secondly, some type of apparatus is necessary to determine the exact moisture content of the green ma terial. How long it takes to wilt the material down to the proper mois ture content cannot be determined in advance. One thing is certain: There will be many delays in Alling the silo, thus increasing the dan ger of mold and high temperatures, both of which tend to destroy nutri ents. Fill Silo Three-Fourths. The silo must be filled more than three-fourths full with wilted green material within two days. The ma terial must be evenly distributed and well tramped. Filling should be con tinued on the third day, using high moisture grasses or legumes to which a preservative has been added so that sufficient pressure is generat ed to exclude the air from the par tially wilted mass. Delays in filling beyond this period may ruin the silage, a fact which has been learned by many farmers. Furthermore, the wilting of a green crop destroys carotene. The longer the period of wilt the more carotene is lost, an important con sideration in producing milk of ex cellent quality. 76 GASOLINE TRITON MOTOR OIL BIF INSECT AND LIVESTOCK SPRAY LUBRICANTS Paint Thinners Pressure Appliance Fuels Geo.

The flies cause loss in milk pro duction because they suck cows’ blood, and their annoyance of ten causes cat tle to refuse to graze. Hence, they do not get their fill of grass which is the best milk producer, and it takes a part of the feed which otherwise would go to production of milk to re place the blood. Some investigators claim that during seasons of abundance horn flies are responsible for losses of one-quarter to one-half of the normal milk production. More over, annoyance by the flies dur ing milking might lead to con tamination of the milk with con sequent lowering of its quality. Sprays, which many dairymen use, will keep flies off «cattle dur ing milking and for an hour or more afterward. But this does not prevent loss in milk produc tion. However, a cattle fly trap used as a gateway to and from water, feed, or other frequented places, has been found effective for the control of hornflies on many dairies, farms and ranches.
