No flioney was eyer wasted in feeding dairy 3tock liberally in Augusts CUTTING CORN FOR SILAGE The determination of the proper time to cut corn for the silo nas passed through ah interesting itUP* tory. When corn was first grown and used for silage it was thought that it must be cut very green to make the best silage. After years of work and investigation we know now that very great tosses oecur in the silo if the corn is cut too green. The more nutrients there are in the fofm of starch the better the silage will keep and the less acid will be; formed. A simple table giv ing the increase in dry matter in the crdp will show how fast the nu trients increase through the dif ferent Stages of growth: Stage 6f growth Lbs. dry matter TaSseMp July 30.2,619 Silkedr August 9 . 3,078 Milk, August 21 . 4 643 Crlkma September 7 . 7,202 Ripe.

There is no gain from having liquid . run out from the silo. We should gauge our cutting so that the corn will be Just green enough to pack well, but be ripe enough so that there will be no leakage from the bottom of the silo. I do not think it is necessary to tread the ..silage into the., silo .very much If the silage is leveled over two of three times a* day.and care taken; that it is delivered to the center of the silo from the blower it will settle of Itself and keep well.'

The addition of a protein supplement Sftch as cotton seed meal or Unaecd oil meal is of less importance ou grass than in the dry lot, because of the liberal amount of prptain io the gtaai A common practice is to feed a very iMited amount of protein sup plement during th(* first mouths, and gradually increase the amount during the latter part of. the fat tening period. The amount of grain to fe;d depends upon the condition of the cattle and the amount of grass available. As h rule, an allow ance of from one and one-half to two pounds of corn per 100 pounds of live weight daily is considered a full feed on pasture. In some cases it Is economical to fe?d a limited grain ration early in the season when there is an abun dance of grass, and gradually in crease the amount toward the latter part, of the feeding period. By fol lowing this method, the maximum amount of grass is consumed dur ing the early part of the fattening period. An allowance of from one half to one pound of the protein concentrate per 1,000 pounds of live weight is enough during the early part of the feeding period. Grad ually increase the allowance to on? and one half or two pounds during the last few weeks of the feeding period. RAPE AND CLOVER IN CORN There are usually few places where we may plan to gat seme ex tra feed on the farm when we reach the lard cultivation stage' of corn, but wa fipd that in many cases the seeding of rapa in the cornfield just before the last culti vation often makes gcqd fail pas ture, Tire rape may be seed'll broadcast at the rata- of- three to five pound's practice has been followed by one ‘western farmer for a number of years and has proved very successful. The chance for a good growth of rape is enhanced where trie corn crop is not too rank or too thick and dur ing seasons when there is plenty of moisture during the fall. While there is always the risk of failure the amount of seed required is small and comparatively cheap. It is worth the risk, especially where the soil is fertile and the com crop is not showing signs cf becoming too, rank to shut out all the sun light from the pasture crcp.
