Excellent For Fattening and For Feed- ing Stock Cattle. For; a period of four years tests have been carried on with steers at the Wis- consln College of Agriculture to deter- mine the value of silage ns a feed for the fattening steer when fed alone with a suitable grain ration or in con- nection with either good alfalfa or clo- ver bay rougbuges fed with a grain ra- tion. In every instance it was found that silage lowered the cost of grains when introduced into the ration. and when fed as the sole roughage (al- though gains were not so large as when clover or alfalfa bay was added to the.ration) the gains were made the most cheaply. It is unwise for the farmer to feel that because silage is a good feed it can be made the sole feed for stock, says the Iowa Homestead. By nature it is high in water content, low in pro- tein and high .in carbohydrate mate- rials, To be properly balanced the ya- tion sbould contain some feeds that r h carbohy- drate a are low in water content and hoy- drate material and high in protein. For fattening purposes a good day's ration for a 1,000 pound steer would consist of from fifteen to twenty pounds of silage, five or six pounds of alfalfa or clover hay- fifteen to eight- een pounds of broken ear corn and two or three pounds of cottonseed meal. Not only is silage useful to the beef man for fattening purposes, but it Is useful for stocking cattle over the win- ter, and a farm test made upon a Wis- consin farts under the supervision of the College of Agriculture showed au average daily gain of over a pound per day, and the steers came out in the spring in good condition to go on grass. These steels were fed about twenty pounds of silage daily. together with what timothy they would consume. When stocking over young enttle cm silage it would be preferred to have clover hay or alfalfa hay. its it is high- er in protein than timothy hay.

After the early spring thaw they only he removed, washed and stored in a cool place. Parsley and watercress utas be transported to flowerpots or boxes and kept in good growing condition throughout the winter. Tomatoes may be stored very late in the fall if the entire vine is care• fully pulled up and bung over fucks In the coolest part of ,}ie frostproof room, or the fruit may lee picked from the vines and placed on racks several inches apart. By these methods a large porton of the green tomatoes will ripen and keep indefinitely. If a frost proof storage place is not available, 'the trench method Is satis- factory for storing cabbage, turnips, carrots, parsuips, salsify, beets, etc., A well drained location should be se- lected and the trench should be about seven feet deep: Clean straw should be filled in to the depth of about one foot. The trench may be divided in sections for each variety of vegeta- bles. The cabbage should be arrang- ed as previously mentioned.. In filling the trench the earth should be firmly packed and well heaped. Two boards nailed together lengthwise to form a sloping roof should be placed over tho top to shed rain and snow.
