SOMETHING NEW IN SILOS.
• Wm- The News -Record.) •
Much has been written in regard to
silos -and silo building and numerous
-
plans have been pubbehed, but in ac-
tual experience none of them have
proved entirely satisfactory. Sonia
are. too expensive for ordinary •farm-
ers, others are cheap but last only a
few years. The round stave Silo is
one of the cheapest 'sorts, and if it
were . not liable to collapse on ac-
count of the shrinkage of the staves
and thesexpansion of the iron hoope,
it would be Very satisfactory,
There is now a 'prospect of these
disadvantages. being overethne, A
number . of farmers in - the TJnited
States have adopted the plan of us.ng
wooden hoops which cannot shrink or
hngthen. endwise. . -The inside sheeting
. .
Is of one inch Georgia pine. which
seems to be the best kind of himber
for silos on acconnt of its non -shrinks'
able character. It is so full of pitch
. that moisture has practically no ef-
fect upon it.- This lumber has been
recently. laid down at Ottawa, for $27
per M and at• that price should be one
of the most economical our 'farmers
could use, -
The foundation of this. new sort of
silo is it its wooden hoops; six inches.
