The double augers, operating in conjunction
with the patented V-paddle Impellers, digs the
silage, mixes It thoroughly, and then throws It
down the chute. Your cows and cattle get good,
palatable silage ... not a powdered mash as so
often happens with unloaders using blowers.

Why Gaps Need Limestone
Two important ingredients needed bj crops are cal
cium and magnesium. Both are regularly lost through the
soil by the following ways:
(1) By leaching, which is a slow leaking away, a
normal process where there is rainfall.
(3) By crop removals, Legumes, such as hay and
other greens, arc taken off the liclds, instead
of plowed under.
(3) By general use of the soil,
Because of this loss., the soil becomes what is known
as high in acid. Putting on limestone may supply calcium
and magnesium and correct the soil aciditj at the same
time.
It has been shown in experiments by agricultural
colleges and experiment stations that for every dollar
spent lor limestone, from $3 to $l5 are returned to the
farmer through increased yields.
The U.S. Government is «o thoroughly convinced of
the worth of applying limestone that about one-half of
the cost is granted free when application is made for it.
Tills is to encourage fanners to he certain to use lime
stone.
It does pay to use limestone!
