Burton Home, extension
agriculture engineer com
pared various types of har
vesting equipment. He listed
some advantages of the flail
type chopper, but pointed
out that length of the chop
ped material can not be
closely controlled with this
type of machine. He showed
pictures of a flail type ma
chine with a corn head at
tachment, but said over ten
percent of the material com
ing through the machine
was six to ten inches in
length. However, he said
some refinements in this
type of machine are being
made

P. O. BOX 25, EPHRATA
Department of Animal sci
ence and Nutrition, said acid
and flavorings for silage pre
servatives have just about
passed out of the picture. He
said research has shown an
libiotics h%ve been of very
little value as preservatives
for grass silage. Sodium Mel
tabisulfite and kylage have
given best results m tests.
Bratzler recommenled wil
ting grass for silage and
storing at about 65 to 72
percent moisture. If unwilted
grass or direct cut grass is
stored in the silo, Bratz’er
recommends 300 pounds of
corn and cob meal per ton of
grass. “Too many farmers
are kicking a bag or two of
corn and cob meal around
over a load and thinking
they are doing a pretty good
job It takes a pretty good
amount to do the job ’’
Bratzler said his research
showed less silo loss of
grass silage with corn and
cob preservative than with
any other treatment
He said five rules for good
silage are. plant a crop with
good feeding value; cut at
the proper stage of maturity,
wilt the crop or add preser
vative; chop the materia 1
fine and pack it well, and
supplement the silage'With a
good gram ration
John Baylor said averages
from 2 years of forage
mg at the Perma. State Uni
versity have shown that corn
silage is highest in total di
gestable nutrients but: grass
silages are high m protein
content.
He said several factors ac
count for the wide variation
in the quality of forages
