j ' Cotton to be destroyed under the
j acreage reduction plan now in op
eration may be used for stack feed.
I If, however, the cotton has been
[ poisoned with calcium arsenate af-
i ter it has put on a considerable
amount of foliage, it should not be
used for this purpose. Fields of cot
ton may be grazed, made into hay,
or used for silage. Where the field
1: frnced, or where an attendant can
be supplied herds of catlte may be
turned into the cotton field with
good results. The cattle will eat the
foliage, squares and tender growth.
Cotton may be made- into hay by
mowing and raking up the plants in
the usual manner employed in mak
ing hay from other cropr. It is im
portant, however, that the plants
be raked and piled while in the wilt
ed stage, as the folage will shatter
very badly if the plants are allow
ed to dry before being piled. The
hay may be fed to catlte, mules or

has been successful in making silage
of the cotton plant. It may be cut
and placed n the silo as other crops
ensilaged; however, if two loads of
corn or sorghum are mixed with each
load of the green cotton stalks, a
grade of silage more acceptable to
the cattle will be produced.
As coton is usually spaced, the
tonnage of feed per acre will not be
great; however, since the crop is
to be destroyed, the grower wit
doubt desire to make some use of
It ‘ '
The feeding value of the cotton
•>'ant will vary with the stage of
• growth. The bolls containing ma
tured seed will be richest in food
yalue, while the leaves and young
squares will no doubt be most pala*-
able. The woody parts of the stallcrj
will not be readily digestible and
"“ r v little of this part of the plant
will be consumed.
