Answer-if the land is well man- ured and lined, then dished and har- rowed thoroughly. it will make a good seed-bed for clover.

Protect them during nights in the folds, and from rains or cold winds. The quicker the lambs grow to mar- ketable size the more profit and the better the meat. Provide u lamb creep so the lambs can be fed an extra ration of grain by themselves. Grain fed to the flock while on pau- ture increases the profits. When the sheep have become accus- tomed to pasture, and the grass has gotten good heart, there need be little anxiety about the flock. There have been quite serious losses in lambs in England this spring owing to unfavorable weather and lack of skilled help at lambing time. The best time to start feeding the heifer to produce a good milk cow is when it is young. The pregnant heifer should receive a liberal ration containing a high per cent. of protein and ash.

Compare_Acts 2. 23/ The absolutely essential features about a good silo are: The walls must be air and moisture proof, the inner surface must be smooth and perpendi- cular. the walls must be strongly re- A silo ten feet in diameter is the best size for from twelve to fourteen head of cattle, as enough silage is taken out each day to keep it fresh. This is a very important point. A silo twenty feet in diameter would re- quire a herd of from thirty-five to forty head of cattle to eat enough off each day to keep the silage fresh. A silo ten feet in diameter and thirty feet high is the best size for the small-sized herd. This will hold forty-six tons of ensilage, enough for: eleven cows, each getting forty pounds a day, for 200 days, and allowing some for loss. The eipense it wodirsuos depends on the sort of wood used. The first siloa built were of the pit type, dug in the ground. It was soon found that the ensilage in these pit silos rapidly became moldy and unsuitable for feed. The silos first constructed above ground were of wood, being square in shape or eight sided; but they were not a menu on account of the air pockets in the corn- ers, which caused the silage to spoil. It was not until the round stave silos, with hoops that could be tightened or loosened as the silo swelled or shrunk, were put on the market, that silos be! came a practical success. There is a further urgent reason for erecting a silo this season-the prices of all feeds are unusually high and the saving with silage is con- sequently greater than ever before. The first silos built were of the Cows need succulent feed during the winter months and silage furnishes it in convenient, economical form. Steers and lambs make faster and cheaper gains when silage is part of the ration. If there is anything a farmer is 'utstitied in going into debt for it is n silo. No implement will pay for it- self so quickly " the silo. The ques- tion, Will it pay? is no longer debat- able. With a dairy of twenty cows it will pay for itself in two winters' feeding. The only questions nowa- days are, How can I get one? What kind shall I get? Where shall I put it, and how shall I pay for it? - _ Wideawake fruit farmers have found that dairying filled a unique and profitable place in their farming sys- tem. And modern dairying is not profitably possible without a silo. An acre of corn made into good silage has about forty per cent. great- er feeding value than when fed as crib corn and dry fodder.

In selecting ‘a wood silo, the writer would go to the expense of having the staves made in one piece. This costs a little more.
