Warns af: Problers
•With Silos
by George Gear
A gricultural' Representative
Bruce County..
Farmers are' putting their corn ..
'in the -silos earlier this year. With
so much new growth after the
.drought 1 8171 afraid that many
.silos will run.and they willhave..
sour silage,. Corn should not be' •
put in until the corn is well dent
With .so much :wilted corn marry
silos will be dangerous and farm-
ers should never' enter a silo after -
it has set overnight until a :blower`
has been turned on for a few min-
utes. Wilted corn produces lethal
gas' and,1 am afraid some farmers•
will be going into the silo°to re-
arrange. the pipes before starting . •
the next day. Againnever entera
silo .that. has`set overnight until
the' blower has been going for a,
few 'minutes.
The Farm Organizations ofBrucc
and. •Grey are planning *a Farmers' ''
eek .at Hanover It , starts on
Monday ,. January. 9th, and continues.
hrough, until Friday. This is the /. .
ime of the .annual T, V. series'on
anuary• llth, 12th and 13th from '
o:30 to 11;30. int the morning: -This
rogram will be. incorporated into
he. Farmers" .-Week: Monday will
e Dairy:, Tuesday, will be hogs-,
ednesday'will:be Soils. and. Crops,
hursday,will, be Beef and "Friday,
arm machinery. This. is an
'novation:for the farmers in. this :
Istrict. Up to now. farmers wanting
o aattendsch
u . a s e les of meetings gs.
ould have to goto the Soils and • .
raps:Improvement Convention at;
Toronto or Farmers" Week. at*
uelph etc. This series starts at.
0:.0'0 in the morning and finishes
t 4 00 in the afternoon and: will
e within •driving distance of 'all
armers in Bruce and Grey.
Because.of the dry summer no one
n' Bruce County.was able to pick
p the Barley=Sweepstakes`, This
ccumulates from year to, year,
he take next. year will be over :'
250.00 and is setting to be really
orth.while for someone to groW
ver two tons of barley per acre
t helps in this program to prepare .
he PAH before. After harvest
ultivation, 'gettin'g rid of an the
wit.chgrass and ,getting land fairly
olid will be, a help. If the farmer
ties to grow a high yield of 'barley
on sod, th'e sod should be plowed
early and well worked this Fall,.
It is a matter of` interest to see a
larger than average acreage of
Fall wheat being seeded. If it is
seeded by now or. within the next
few days and adequate fertility :is
provided, it should be, a good crop
to grow .
•Yellow Rocket is far 'from, the
minds of most people at the
present time. •They always get •
greatly; excited about it in late',
May or June of eaoh year'when it .
is so much in evidence. It is too.
late thento do 'anything about pit.
and. now is the time to spray these
fields with Embutox It is fairly,
readily controlled with. this .spray
It should, however, be done very
shortly because these'sprays•do,not
• work very well when the weather
gets colder;:
With- the 'encouraging prices at
the Wiarton Feeder Sale on.the
people''will be looking with interest
to the next Feeder Sale on:the
22nd . There are over 2,500 cattle
consigned:and if .anyone is looking
fore good 'cattle this: should be the •
place to go. ".
We have • the :usual number of ent-
ries for the Zone 2 Yorkshire Sale
to be held at Walkerton on. October
5th. Ail of the boars::carry, a Gover-
nment Premium and most of them
will alsobe eligible: for the $10.00
bonris being provided bye he Bruce
County Hog Producers .There are
a'. fair number of these , $I0.90,
bonuses,: left and it is very probable
that' these wilt apply the large
percentage of the boars sold. at
this sale.
Prognosticators seem to be chang
ing their minds about. future hog:
Prices.. They think that the price
w.ill'continue: at a fairly reasonable
• level rather thatn taking a plunge
downward
w .that was. anticipated
earlier. They base•their calculat-
ions on ::the large number of sows
,being marketed. There is another
factor coming into play which will
detertnine the:number of hogs be-
ing produced and that is the increa
singis
pr e. pt. grain and concentrat-
es. The price of grain stayed. fairly
.constant for'many. years. Many
farmers that purchased weanling
pigs at a high price ;this Spring.are
finding even at'the present price of
finished hogs that it has not been
',too profitable. One thing to bear
in mind , .however is that even if
the price.of feed •is high that the •
price. of hogs wilt in, the long run
be, high • enough to overcome the
higher price of feed and make a
good profit.: it is`hard to say when
these higher prices for. hogs will •
come, however, and this factor
is the reason. for more cautidn
than was expected.on the part of
the farmers.
