“ENERGY-PAK”
★ *WHAT IS AN "ENERGY—PAK"
OXYGEN CONTROLLED
FEED STORAGE SYSTEM?
The “Energy-Pak” “Oxygen Controlled" Storage
System includes a solid, steel reinforced concrete wall
with a tough epoxy coating on the inside wall and a cone
shaped concrete roof All access openings to the Silage
Storage area are round and fitted with air-tight gaskets
These round openings are easily clamped tight These
features help to control and limit the amount of oxygen
that comes in contact with the feed
In operating an "Energy-Pak”, prime importance is
placed on closing the silo after each filling and feeding
operation Proper use of this system significantly
reduces the oxygen content in the silo and results in a
more ideal condition for maintaining the quality of the
feed put into it

“I am fully aware that
there are many that are
better versed in this
matter than I am, and
much more skillfull But
nobody enjoys working
with his teams more than
I do And when better
farm horses can be had, I
will try to improve my
stock
"I had a hitch of horses
by Timothy Farceur, all
sorrels I enjoyed them for
several years They were
followed by a roan hitch,
sired by Ivandale Farceur,
and they made me happy
until it was time to bury
the last one
"Since than I have
learned what it means to
be sad and lonely
"But I am still a lover of
roan horses One day, at a
distant parade or show, I
may climb into tne seat
and pick up the reins of a.
grand roan hitch that
practically drive them
selves " Charlie Culver
