Question 2 — What- is the best tim

what kind oi ia:vi, and w.ieu l
■.*} cut ? Is it a good winter grass?
Answer 2— It mav be sown either
i:i the fall or early spring and should
be cat just as it begins to biooin. Like
all other crops the better the condition
of tne £Oii the better the yield. On
poor soils it grows abont a foot to afoot
anl a half high, in more favorable lo
cac o ts and when properly managed it
frequently attains a height of from
three to tour teat-. Its underground
roots grow most rapidly in light sandy
loams, but tuey also penetrate the stif
fest clay and form a good sod. At the
south it is esteemed more for grazing
than cutting. It stands even protract
ed drouth remarkably well, and does
not seem to be affected by sudden or
extreme changes of temperature, ii
the land is prepared the same as lor
other grasses and other conditions are
favorable it has been found to succeed
where flic finer grasses have failed. In
our section it remains green through
the winder and seex-s r.o be gaining fa
vor for winter pasturage. Tim seed
should be sown xxnui x) 1 with other va
rieties as its habit is sncii as to ch oc
out other vegetation. On this arc m. t

meai and nulls, wh ch have recently

detract trom their m Tits, I would ur. e
upon farmers and others who keep
much cows the importance of erecting
and cs ng silos. -Many are deterred
from doing this by ignorance, both of
the cost of building and of the expense
of filling a silo, and lor the benefit of
these and others, I herewith append a
few items of information on the sub
ject, which I trust will result in the
building of numerous silos in the state.
This information is taken chiefly from
a report to the department of agricul
ture at Washington:
LOCATION OF SILO.
Should be built in reference to con
venience of feeding the stock, conse
quently it should bo very near, or in or
connected to the stables.
FORM OF SILO.
Immaterial as regards the keeping df
the contents, but it is cheaper and
easier to build in shape of a parallelo
gram, with the sides longer than the
ends.
walls of silo.
If above ground, two thicknesses cf
inch boards with sheating paper bo
tweon (which seine think unnecessary)
will be saflb lent if supportetl against
latieral pressure by the ensilage.
CAPACITY CF SILO
If entirely fihed witn c mipressod en
silage, the silo will contain £0 pounds
to the cubic foot.
COVER.
A layer o? straw or hay on the top of
the eusilagRi and then planks on top of
that, weighted d<iW 1 by any heavy ma
terial, snci* as Btones, earth, etc. A
little space saonld be allowed between
the walls and cover, that the cover may
not catch on or against the wail as the
ensilage settles.
COST.
The cost of silos varies from $4 to $5
for walls of heavy masonry, to AO cents
•r less for simple wooden silo* per ton
•f capacity.

CROPS FOR KNSTL4.GR.
Corn takes the load o; eusiingi crons,
anil when mixed with field peas makes
a very line feed. Com planted for en
silage will produce from lf» to <:0 tons
to the acre (58 tons has been made), and
is at its best for eusilags When it has
attained its mil growth and before
ripening begins.
PREPARING! CORN, PR A3, E7C., FOR TIB
SILO.
This should bn done by a cutter
driven by horse power or steam, wi .
earners to take the ensilage from th
cutter to the “op of the silo. The corn
pea vines, etc., should bo cut fine, r.
pieces not. over all inch in length; it
packs closer and for tnis reaso i is a...
to keep hotter than coarse ensilage.
FILLING 'IHR SILO
During the process of fi'ding, tiio en
silage should bo kent level and wed
trodden. Some a"tabu much nnpo''
auce to-rapid fillin', while others mcl e
it more a matter of convenience. WY
the packing equally thorough, ran
filling is probab y less.
