Trench Silo
Demonstrator
Reports Success
J. W. RICHARDS, Co. Agent
J. B. Danieel said that he had 14
acres of the poorest land on his farm
planted to hegari last year and that
when time came to harvest it he dug
a hole in the ground, chopped the
feed with a silage cutter and put it
in the hole, putting water on it as
he did so.
He dug the french along side his
lot where he was to feed 40 head of
Brahma cows. When he opened the
silo and started feeding from it he
noticed there was a small amount of
waste feed and water that hogs
might utilize profitably. He bought
14 head of feeder pigs for §54.00
and fed them the waste silage and
water and a small amount of corn.
Last week he sold seven of the hogs
for $75.00 and has seven more that
will be ready for market in about
two weeks. He says that the pigs
alone will pay for digging the trench
and cutting the feed and filling the
silo. Then he has fed 40 head of
cows and two mules for over three
months from the 14 acres of the
“poorest land on the farm.”
