THE LEADER-ENTERPRISE FRIDAY NOVEMBER 8, 1912
LQILAQE! Tl
At a farmers’ institute not long ago
the question was asked: How many
housewives have silos? You can very
easily gfess the nature of the replies
to this question, for none of those
prese /had much of an idea what a
silo rr?ally is. After a short explana
tion i/ was agreed that nearly every
one Jresent in reality had a silo of
some kind. Some of these were used
{sr swving fruits, corn, and others for
prestving cabbage for future use.
- Wedon’t really speak of these as
silo, but the effect on the saving of
thee beds when placed in jars is the
sare as it is with corn when stored
inthe silo; in other words, silage is
gren corn preserved by storing in an
ai-tight structure.
There probably are very few farmer
kvs that do not remember some rainy
@y or evening when all hands got
hsy preparing the cabbage to fill the
, raut jar. Probably ro thought was
{fiven the subject because it was a
learly task, and no one realized that
ln effect the saving of the cabbage by
'i'la!«:ing it into kraut is the same as
making corn silage. Tt undoubtedly
served a good purpose in keeping the
family in a healthy condition during
the winter months when other green
food was not available. The same is
true of silage, which affords a succu
lent and nourishing feed for the live
stock. :
There may be a question as to
whether all stock will eat the sour corn
silage, but give them a ckhance and this
thoueht will be quickly dispelled, for
all stock eat silage very greedily, and
the returns in the forn of milk and
meat will amply pay for all the trouble
and expense. ’
Yours very truly, :

LAND DRAINAGE A NECESSITY
Well Drained Soil Will Give Best Re
turns—Care Should be Exercised
in Laying Tile Drains.
Reply to J. C. Tally, Stevenson, Ala.
Drainage comes first, if the land
needs it, and tile drainage is the mod
ern and sensible way of draining. If
the soil is low in humus, stable manure
or vegetable matter must be added;
if it is lacking in one or more of the
elements of plant focd, these must be
supplied in commercial fertilizer,
stable manure and legumes; if it is
sour, an application of lime is nec
essary; if the soil is compact and there
is a hard pan, deep plowing must be
done. But if it needs drainage, stable
manure, commercial fertilizer, vege
table matter, lime, and deep plowing
will be of little avail.
There are many thousands of acres
of land that are dgy enocugh to induce
farmers to try to farm them arnd are
wet enough to scak all the profit cut
of cultivating them. Drainage on
such scils is very urgent.
Drainage may be-very simple or a
very complex problem. It may require
exact engineering so that every avail
able ineh of fall may be utilized or the
location of the tile may be so apparent
that the average practical farmer car
easily locate it with the eve. Between
these two exiremes there are cases
requiring varyving degrees of skill.
If it is a complicated proposition the
services of areputable engineer should
be secured; if there are merely wet
spots in your field, or if your field is
wet with plenty of fall, you should
be able to locate and lay your tile with
no difficulty by foliowing the methcds
outlined in the Uniontown, Alabama,
Canebrake Experiment Station ‘bul
letins, Numbers 3, §, 6, and 10. Be
sure ithat no mistake is made in tiling
vour land. Tiling land is expensive
and should be done right.
Yours very truly,
1 H C SERVICE BUREAU.
