Silage Is Suggested

Experiment, Extreme Care
Needed to Make It Work
By C. W. BENDER
(Professor Dairy Husbandry, Rutgers
University.)
In view of the high price of mo-
lasses and the scarcity of phos-
phoric acid for preserving silage,
grasses and cereals — a
method requiring practically no pre-
servatives—sounds good.
The wilting method will work, but
it also takes experimental control
and extreme care to make it work.
Moisture Content Excess.
Farmers experienced at making
grass silage know that mold accu-

even when the silo is filled with
material having a moisture content
of 72 to 78 per cent.
Yet materials with this
amount of moisture pack more
readily and develop more pres-
sure than grasses with lower
moisture content, and the wilt-
ing method calls for wilting
down the green material to a
moisture content of only 65 to
68 per cent. Thus there is a
greater danger of mold when
the wilting method is used.
Secondly, some type of apparatus
is necessary to determine the exact
How long it takes to wilt the
material down to the proper mois-
ture content cannot be determined in
advance. One thing is certain:
There will be many delays in filling
the silo, thus increasing the dan-
both of which tend to destroy nutri-
ents,
Fill Silo Three-Fourths.
The silo must be filled more than
three-fourths full with wilted green
material within two days. The ma-
terial must be evenly distributed
and well tramped. Filling should be
continued on the third day, using
high moisture grasses or legumes
to which a preservative has been
generated to exclude the air from
the partially wilted mass. Delays
ruin the silage, a fact which has
Furthermore, the wilting of a
green crop destroys carotene. The
longer the period of wilt the more
carotene is lost, an important con-
sideration in producing milk of ex-
cellent quality.

Trap That Hornfly
Dairy cows will not produce at
maximum when infested with
hornflies.
The flies cause loss in milk pro-
duction because they suck cows’
blood, and their

place the blood.
Some investigators claim that
during seasons of abundance horn-
flies are responsible for losses of
one-quarter to one-half of the
normal milk production. More-
over, annoyance by the flies dur-
ing milking might lead to con-
tamination of the milk with con-
sequent lowering of its quality.
Sprays, which many dairymen
use, will keep flies off cattle dur-
ing milking and for an hour or
more afterward. But this does
not prevent loss in milk produc-
tion. However, a cattle fly trap
used as a gateway to and from
water, feed, or other frequented
places, has been found effective
for the control of hornflies on
many dairies, farms and ranches.

The Bulletin, Mount Joy, Lancaster County, Pa., Thursday Afternoon, December 10, 1942

HE increasing employment of
women to meet the man-power
shortage is going to give a perky
touch to lots of industries. In the
beet sugar industry, as an example,
which is busily engaged in manu-
facturing sugar so that you can
“cash” your ration stamps, women
are being employed for the first
time in history. They perform oper-
ations which involve relatively lit-
tle muscular effort.
Here’s a pretty California lass
perched on the edge of a freight
car filled with newly-harvested sug-
ar beets. In her hands she holds
two beets which should yield about
eight ounces of pure, sparkling
sugar—or enough for your current
weekly ration. With the harvest of
sugar beets now nearly completed
in nineteen States of the Union,
Beauty and the Beets, Obviously

the industry hopes to produce
enough sugar to provide an eight-
ounce weekly household ration for
every man, woman, and child in
the United States for one year.
‘Importance of domestic beet sug-
ar is underscored by the fact that
it needs no ocean shipping to get
from factory to consumer, and it
is thus free of the hazards attend-
ing the importation of sugar from
tropical areas.
In addition to the production of
sugar, an indispensible energy food,
the beet sugar industry is contrib:
uting to the relief of the meat
shortage. Sugar beet by-products—
leafy tops, pulp, and molasses—are
fed extensively to lambs and cattic
and each year are responsible fot
the production of millions of pounds

of beef and mutton.

Educational Adviser
Suggests Rural Change
The little red schoolhouse can
bring its reading classes up to date
just as easily as schools in urban
districts, according to Lois Clark,
adviser of early childhood and ele-
. mentary education in the Pennsyl-
vania department of public instruc-
tion.
Speaking before the annual con-
ference on reading instruction held
at the Pennsylvania State college
over the past week-end, Miss Clark
advocated that the one-room school
teacher group her pupils according
to ability rather than grades.
“To help each child to do what he
is capable of doing, we must free
the rural teacher from the artificiali-
ty of grade organization and let her
| give pupils with third grade read-
ing ability books they are capable
of mastering regardless of their age
or grade level,” she said.
Miss Clark recommended three
ways to bring about improvement in
reading in rural schools.
1. Re-classify pupils according to
their ability.
2. Teach reading in other sub-
jects as well as in ‘‘reading class,”
making sure that pupils are famil-
iar with words found in geography,
health, and history textbooks in ad-
dition to those in readers.
3. Encourage more free, volun-
tary ‘reading for fun’’ from other
books which interest the pupils.
Such a program carried out in one
rural school brought about marked
improvement in reading, better re-
sults in achievement tests, and
greater interest in books, she de-
clared.

Save This for Your
August Plant Feeding
Strawberry beds—because the first
buds of the strawberry are formed
in the fall of the year, the plant
should be fed well during August
and September, to insure a heavy
crop of fruit for the following year.
Dahlias—in order to keep plants
blooming freely until frost.
Delphiniums—to promote a fall
burst of bloom.
Established lawns—to help the
grass develop a strong, deep root
system that is not subject to winter
killing. A fall application of a com-
plete balanced plant food (4 pounds
per 100 square feet) is very bene-
ficial.
Seedbed for new lawns—to pro-
mote vigorous growth of young
grass and promote well-balanced
development of both root and top
growth,
New and established plantings of
crocus and narcissus bulbs—to in-
duce a strong root growth, and thus
insure abundant spring bloom.
