FLYlIIONETYMTAR EASURING HAY IN STACK V Reply to Andrew Wright, Sidewood, Sask.: "Will you please send me a formula fr measuring hay in th6 stack?" For obtaining the number of tons of hay in a stack, the first step is to measure the width and length with a tape line, and then what is known as the overthrow, that Is, pass a tape line from the bottom of the stack on one side over to the bottom on the other side and divide this measure ment which is called the overthrow by three, then multiply the length by the width, and this by one-third of the overthrow-this gives you the number of cubic feet in the stack. Of course, if the stack is different widths or different heights you will have to take the measurements in several places and obtain the average of these by adding them together and dividing by the number of measure ments made. The number of cubic feet of hay per ton varies considerably with the length of time that it has been staci ed. With newly stacked hay it will take about 500 cubic feet to equal a ton. If it has been stacked for two to three months, from 350 to 400 cubic feet will equal a ton. After you have obtained the number of cubic feet In the stack, divide by the number of cubic feet in a ton, taking Into con sideration the length of time that the hay has been stacked. SAVE THE FODDER Although it is too late in the season to consider doing anything with the corn for ensilage purposes we should not overlook the fact that to save the fodder which we have already cut is not only our duty but is very impor tant from the standpoint of having sufficient feed for our livestock dur [g the winter months. Of the many ways to save the corn crop the use.of the silo is perhaps the best, and yet only,% few of the farmers In the corn belt have taken advantage Af this means of saving the corn crop this season and we should begin right now to investigate the silo problem so that we can erect mne next year. The silo not only saves 30 to 40 per cent of the corn's nutrition that would otherwise be lost, but it affords a green and suffi cient feed during the winter months. Crop reports sent out by the- govern- _ sent show that the farm value of bay as quoted October 1st, is some what less than it -was October 1st, 911, but yet' it is higher by a con siderable amount than usual. In other words this indicates that the amount ,f rough feed available throughout the country is less than normal and for this reason we should - put forth extra efforts to save all the fodder and )ther rough feed we have as it will come in mighty handy before spring. When we consider the increased farm alue of hay and the fact that if fodder is -left standing in the field from 25 to 40 per cent of its feeding ralue is lost we will realize how Im portant it is to form our plans now to save this fodder in the best possible shape. Perhaps you have not done so, brt rou have seen your neighbors lea- " the corn fodder in the fields durie the winter months and haul it in de' after day as it was required. This is bad practice, to say the least, and we hope that no reader of the Servic'e Bureau will be found guilty of th~s practice this season. Late fall rains :oupled with occasional sleet or snow storms not only waste a considerable amount of the fodder but make it axtremely difficult to handle if left in the field. Fodder left exposed in this nanner loses its feeding value through the loss of protein caused by the . action of the elements and by the wasting of leaves due to handling. The next best practice is to stack bhe fodder as soon as the corn is picked. It Is a good Idea- to locate _ :ho stack somewhere convenient to he feeding rack or on the south side f a grove where the fodder can be ed during the cold winter mornings by scattering It on the ground where ~ he animals will be protected from he cold northwest winds.. This brings us to the subjiect of shredding fodder, which is the most mportant and by far the best way of saving a fodder crop. The husker and shredder now in common use cuts the ~ stalks in longitudinal sections,--into small bits which puts It in - a much nore palatable form. It has been round that live stock will eat much nore of the stalk when shredded than when fed whole. The machine used or this purpose will deliver the corn n a husked condition. The cost of hredding varies, of course, in differ mt localities, but figuring the aver ige cost of husking corn and storing g' ,t, the expense of shredding Is prac- g ically the same. Then you will not suly get the corn husked and stored but you will have your fodder in a onvienient form for storing and feed .ng. It is a good plan to store the " shredded fodder in the hay. mow or in some place where it can be covered. [f it is impossible for you to do this, stack the shredded fodder close to where you Intend to feed it. This - will not only save labor, but will re luce losses in handling and hauling he shredded fodder. Another advan age of shredding the fodder which is ften overlooked is the convenience handling the stable manure. It is erhaps unnecessary to call the Corn 3elt farmers' attention to this fact. Get us plan right now to at least stack our fodder and if possible use a shredder. Yours very truly, __I H C SERVICE BUREAU An Omitted Story.
