through the, Food Prices

and no one can condone
mismanagement, ,that allows
eggs to spoil, in a hungry world.

Huron corn in doubt
griculture expert advises
to ensile after first frost
Because,:of late planting and
a cool Summer,' much of Huron
County's field 'carp will not
reach maturity before frost this
fall.
However, if grain corn is still
green and has few ears, don't
plow it under •L ---,,ensile it after
the first heavy frost, advises
° Professor R. B. Daynard, corn
specialist at-. the" Ontario
Ag°ricciltural Coll''ge? .
Well -eared corn ,dries earlier
and yields more, dry matter to
the acre than immature corn,
but a heavy' frost dries ' im-
mature corn to.theproper 65 to
70°, percent moisture level,cso
that'it can be ensiled pr6perly.
' Research at OAC and other"
agricultural institutions „ has
shown .that silage made thfrom
immature corn is every bit as
valuable on a pounds -of -dry -
matter basis as. silage made
from well -eared corn.
'If you have a 'livestock -
producing neighbor with -better -
drained cortl,,�f'elds, than yours,
both you and hecould benefit
economically if you sell him
your immature grain corn for
ensilage and he picks his well --
eared silage corn, Professor
Daynard suggests.•
Although your neighbor will
have to wain until after the first
heavy ,frost to fill his silo, ands
will not get as good a yield per
acre as is usual, his silage, will
"be high in quality and your
corn will .not be wasted.
