TRENCH SILOB
Quite a number of Inquiries have
come to the County Agent asking
for information concerning the con-
struction of trench silos. The capa-
city of the trench silo depends large-
ly upon the size of the nerd to be
fed during the winter tim,ean d upon
the amount of feed which is to be
stored in the silo. It is safe to figure
about two to three tons of stage per
animal to be fed. The width of the
HOPPER
..Quite a number of Inquiries have
come to the County Agent recently
asking for information concerning
the control of the cotton flea hopper.
Research work has been done along
this line by the U. S. Department of
•Agriculture, near Port Lavaca, in Cal-
houn county, and it has been found
that about 12 pounds of finely-ground
sulphur, about 300 mesh, has given
excellent results and in some instan-
ces as much as 3 or 400 p. c. nicrease
in yield has resulted from the use
of sulphur over the check plots where
sulphur was not used. The sulphur
is ducted on at night or early in the
morning when the dew .is on the cot-
ton so that it will stick, otherwise,
the maximum results will very llkels
not be obtained. . -
Any further information concerning
this very important matt-r will be

tory to carry the goepel to every

head of cows would take a silo about
10 feet in width at the top and seven
at the bottom, and should be about
4 feet in depth. The length of this
silo may be any convenient length
from 30 to 100 feet, dependns upon
the amount of feed that is to be stor-
ed. The sides of the silo should be
sloping, making the width at the bot-
tom about 384 feet leag than it is
at the top. This is done for two rea-
eons. The first reason is that he
silage will settle more closely to the
sides in a sloping silo than it will in
one where the sides are straight, and
the secohd reason 13 that when the
slip is emptied, if the sises are not
sloping, they will very likely cave
off, and when it is 4a be filled the
following year it wilt be necessarily
have to be made larger, which might
not be desirable, especially with a
small herd. With 13 herds to be
fed from the silo, it may be built as
wide as 16 or 18 feet at the top with
the 'width at the bottom 4 feet less.
It should aways be remembered
that the quality of the feed, taken out
of the silo depends entirely upon the
quality of the feed put into it, and
completed.

sorghums should ibe well matured as
silage made from immature sorghums
are very apt to be acid and digestive
troubles will very likely result. Sugar
forms in the stalk of the grain sorg-
hum only after the head is well ma-
tured. Water should always be add-
’ ed for best results and the silage
should be well packed. It is well .to
begin filling at one end and complete
a small secton of it and cover it over
with at least 8 to 10 Inches of dirt
and wet the dirt well after it- has
been placed. then continue with the
food as are furnished by the maga-
zines according to the round-table
discussion led by Mrs. John Brew-
ster at a meeting of the Louise

of Mrs. Wm. Koch Thursday. July 11.
To get the habit of reading is the
really important thing, and next the
selection of what to read. A selec-
tion of good magazines in the home
is - the best influence with which to
develop a taste for reading. This
reading will stimulate thoughtul con-
versation at the table and about the
home as well as away from home.
There are monthly magazines that the
entire family, young and old, may en-
joy together. In these the ablest
writers of America contribute of their
best and give a library to almost
every home, even where the purse
is limited. .. '
