York County Dairyman Tells of Using Silo-King
For the past four years Mr. Stewart has been using Silo-King leafy hay. The applicator mounts easily on his baler and meters
on his baled hay. David says there is no substitute for high' Silo-King accurately onto the hay before entering the bale
quality, green leafy sweet smelling alfalfa hay in helping to get chamber. Silo-King contains no corrosive acids and will not
top milk production. Presently he has a rolling herd average of corrode or rust the applicator or baler.
19,801 lbs. milk and 783 lbs. fat.
By using Silo-King Mr. Stewart can bale hay at 20-25 percent This fine dairyman has several young bulls for sale. If anyone is
moisture (without dew or ram) and still get top quality green interested, he’d be happy to talk with you. Phone 717-456-5245.
