len Scott, of .Cromarty, and Mr.

SURFACE SILOS
Surface silos have now been in-
troduced into almost all parts. of
Canada and are no longer consid-
ered in the experimental stage.
It is a matter of record that when
the silage material is stored cor-
rectly and the silo is properly
constructed, the surface silo is a
practical and economical storage
structure for silage.
One of the advantages of the
surface silo is its low initial cost
which may range from $1.50 to
$2.00 for materials per ton of
capacity. This will be lower still
if the farmer uses his own lum-
ber. On the other hand, the con-
struction of tower silos may cost
$12 or over per ton of capacity.
When evaluating the comparative
costs of the two types of silos
the period of useful life should be
taken into account. A surface.
silo may be expected to last 15 to
20 years, while a tower silo may
have a useful life of 30 years or
more, depending on materials of
construction.
When building a silo the loca-
tion should be given first consid-
eration, -advises D. J. Cooper,
Central Experimental Farm, Ot-
tawa., It should be as convenient
as possible to the barn on a well
drained ,and accessible site for
filling operations, as well as for
feeding out. If • self-feeding is to
be practised the base of the silo
'should be of concrete, tarvia, or
crushed stone about 1/2 -inch in
size.
Sidewalls of the silo may be
made of 2 -inch lumber and should

KERSLAKE - LEMON .;
VARNA.—A quiet but pretty
wedding was solemnized at James
Street United Church manse, Exe-
ter, Saturday, April 23 at 2 p.m.
when Marion Viola, daughter uf
Mr. -and Mrs. Howard Lemon,R.
R. 1, Varna, and Robert Harrisotf
Kerslake, son of 'Mr. Arthur Kers-
lake and the late Mrs. Kerslake,
R.R. 1, Centralia, exchanged mar-
riage vows. Rev. H. J. Snell per-
formed the ceremony.
The bride was lovely in a gown
of rose nylon crepe, street -length,
shawl collar and white accessories,
and a two -strand of pearls' com-
pleting her costume. She carried
a bridal bouquet of blue carna-
tions.
Miss 'Carol Faber, of Hensall,
bridesmaid, chose a street -length
;own of peacock blue brocaded
atin with accessories in white.
ler flowers were pink carnations.
Robert Coates, R.R. 1, Centra -
a, was his brother's groomsman.
The wedding dinner was served
t the home of the bride's par-
ts, the house being attractively
ecorated in color schemes of
nk and white, the bridal table
entering a three-tier Wedding
ake, vases of daffodils adding to
le decorations.
For t-,eir honeymoon to Niagara
Falls 'and the U.S.A., the bride
donned a lime green linen dress

have tongue and groove joints. On-
ly in this way can air be, kept out
of silage. Sidewall posts may be
spaced six feet apart and may be
braced to stop any -movement of
the sidewall. A height of six feet
is suggested for sidewalls as con-
siderable difficulty is experienced
in climbing a silo any higher than
this.
The usual way of filling a sur-
face silo is to drive a loaded wag-
on through and unload by hand or
other means. A rope and board
drag was found to be the lowest
cost and best means of unloading
chopped silage from wagons.
Packing of a silo can best be
done by a tractor, making sure to
thoroughly pack at the sidewall.
The amount of packing reqpired,,
depends upon the maturity, mois-
ture content and length of cut.
Too severe packing of early ma-
turity high moisture, short cut
silage, results in undesirable ,cold
silage. On the other hand, too
little packing of late maturity,
low moisture, Jong silage, produc-
es overheating and mold forma-
tion.
Progress: In 1946 there were 36
Canadian sailing vessels of 10 to
40 tons fishing Atlantic and Pact:
fic waters. By 1952 none were left
and all vessels of 10 tons or more
were powered by diesel or gaso-
line engines.
