The
Careen Fodder Vim the Silo Should Be
Well Packed.
Well -packed green fodder carrying
a normal, amount of moisture will
contain within the small spaces just
enough air to carry the fermentation
to the desired point fur proper silage
making. If au excess anivunt of air
is p:esent throuee improper cutting
and packing of the rudder the fer-
mentations will be carried too rar,
moulds will form and spoil part of
the silage. Numerous agents are
present and ready to functlon'should
conditions tavor their development in
the ensiled mass. The plant enzymes,
invertase and zymase, together with
the acid forming bacteria lactis acini
and vial acetals are. of the greatest
importance in silage making. Num-
erous other bacteria are present, and
if conditions favor their development
to a greater degree than they favor
the development of the lactic and
acetic acid formers the silage prouuc-
ed will not be of the Highest grade.
The plant cells of the cut or shredded
green fodder that is placed in the
silo are still alive and carry the
chemical substances commonly known
as enzymes. These enzymes are the
agents that break down the starch
and increase the sugar content dur-
ing the first few days of the fer-
mentative process, apparently prepar-
ing the way for the acid forming
bacteria which become very active
after the fifth or sixth day aud,con-
trol the completion of the silage
making process if conditions are
normal.
Many Activities In. the Silo Useful

Prevention of Tuberculosis in
Poultry.
It is absolutely useless to treat
poultry which is suffering from tuber-
culosis with any sort of medicine or
patent poultry tonics. Preparations
which guarantee to cure this disease
are pronounced frauds by scientists.
Once the bird is infected there is no
cure. All effort should be directed
to prevent the healthy birds rrom
contracting the disease.
If the flock is small dna not of
great value and if several birds have
died or are known to be affected, it
would probably be the part of wisdom
to destroy the whole flock and start
over again. The poultry holies should
be scrubbed out with good disinfect-
ant and the -walls whitewashed. If
the floor of the house is dirt, remove
about six inches and bury it out of
the way. Resurface with fresh, clean
soil. If the floor is well made of
either concrete, tile or wood, soak
thoroughly with. disinfectant. If the
floor is not of good material or hard
to clean, lay a new. one over the old.
Turn over the soil in the runs. Boil
drinking cups and cleanse , all ' other
utensils. After this is well done, se-
cure the new birds, being very care-
ful to purchase them from a flock
which is free from the disease.
If the flock is large or Valuable and
it . ie decided to attempt eradication
without destroying all'the fowls,
great care and attention, even to the
Smallest details, are necessary. One
will,' of course, overlook some of the
diseased birds on the first examina-
tion, but ,they may be observed later
on when the symptoms are better de-
veloped. Keep the floor as free from
drops as possible, and clean out and
disinfect at least once a week. Do
not" allow the young birds to run
with the older ones, for they,are eas-
ily infected. After the first general
weeding • out, watch the rest and as
coon as one begins to appear diseas-
ed, remove it from the dock and .keep
it alone,.and. then it it develops fur-
ther symptoms destroy it at once.
