Tutt’s Liver Pills ■ "QUESTIONS ANSWERED. ----- A — ifZTe, TT.* Information o:i shot and ensilage, the valnes of the latter for feeding to milk cows and other stock? Answer 4 —There being a growing interest in Georgia on the subject of the cow aud hor products, viz., milk, buttor and cheese, resulting in the es¬ tablishing of a number of creameries in the state, it becomes a matter of great importance as to what wo shall mainly rely upon for our winter food for cattle. In answer to this question I say with¬ out hesitation, ensilage. I know the value of winter pastures of rye, cats, barley and other grains and grassos, and I know the value of cottonseed meal aud hulls, which have recently beoomo such important factors In win¬ ter feeding; but without meaning to detract from their merits, I would urge upon farmers and others who koep milch cows the importance of erecting and using silos. Many are doterred from doing tills by ignorance, both of the oost of building and of the expense of lilling a silo, and for the benefit of these and others, 1 herewith appsnd 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 be very near, or In or connected to the stables. FORM OF SILO. Immaterial as regards the keeping of the contents, but it is ohoaper aud easier to build in shape of a parallelo¬ gram, with the sides lougor than the ends. WALLS OF SILO. If above ground, two thicknesses of Inch boards with shaating pnper be¬ tween (which some think unnecessary) will be sufficient if supported against latteral pressure by the ensilago. CAPACITY OF SILO. If ontiroly filled with oomprossod en¬ silage, the silo will contain 50 pounds to tko cubic foot. COVER. A layer of straw or hay on tho top of the ensilage and then planks on top of that, weighted down by any heavy ma¬ terial, such as stones, earth, etc. A little space should be allowed between the walls and covor, that the cover may not catch on or against the wall as the ensilago settles. COST. Tho oost of silos varioa from $4 to $5 for walls of heavy masonry, to 50 cents or less for simple wooden silos per ton of capacity. CROPS FOR ENSILAGE. Corn takos the lead of ensilage crops, and whon mixed with field peas makes a very fine feed. Corn planted for en¬ silage will produce from 15 to 20 tons to the acre (58 tons has been made), and is at its best for ensilago when it has attained its full growth aud before ripening begins. PREPARING CORN, PEAS, ETC., FOR THE SILO. This should be done by a cutter, driven by horse power or steam, with carriers to take the onsilage from the cutter to the top of the silo. The corn, pea vines, etc., should be cut fine, in pieces not over an inch in length; it packs closer and for this reason is apt to keep better than coarse ensilage. FILLING THE SILO. During the process of tilling, the en* silage should be kept level and well trodden. Some attach much import¬ ance to rapid filling, while others make it more a matter of convenience. With the packing equally thorough, rapid filling is probably less. COST OF FILLING THE SILO. Tins should not exceed 81 per ton for labor, including the entire cost of the crop WHEN SILO SHOULD BE OPENED. The ensilage should remain under pressure at least until cool, aud not be uncovered after that until wanted. The loss bv decay will be very slight^ and confined to tea top ana siaes.wnere there was more or less exposure to the air. VALUE OF ENSILAGE FOP. MILCH COWS As a rule, ensilage is fad only to milch cows, and it is in connection with them that it* greatest value will be found. Many feeders consider it equal in value to one-half cf its weight of good hay. EFFECTS ON DAIRY PRODUCTS. There is a marked increase in quail tity and improve men t in the quality or milk and butler, after changing from dry feed to ensilage, corresponding with the effects of a similar change to frosh pasture. value to other STOCK. Ensilage lias also been fed with good results to swine, sheep and poultry. DAILY RATION OF ENSILAGE. Cows giving milk. «r„ commonly fed frem 40 to 50 pounds of ensilage a day, wth a little dry hay or fodder and grain. *' Ensilage ? does not take the place tut suoslitu.e . . . for , , hay of grain, is a ; fodder. Stock fed ou ensilage uniform ly gain in health and weight, and there is no doubt as to its profitableness. Question 5. —Is sorghum a good food for hogs, or will it nxike them sick?
