A few months ago when trench
silos were being constructed on the
farms of Jack Gable of Troy and
B. F. Parks of Parksville, many
dairymen expressed themselves as
wishing to see the keeping quali
ties of the silage. Now is a good
time to make observations.
Mr. Gable has been feeding from
his silo for several days. This
particular silo is 30 feet long. 7 feet
wide and 7 feet deep and will hold
18 tons of silage.
The total cost of digging the
trench including cost of roof was
$20.00.
The trench silo is one way of
economically increasing winter
milk production.
It furnished a green succulent
feed during drougth periods and
during the winter when grazing
crops are not available. These
silos have more than doubled
number in adjoining counties thati
tried them out last year.
I am sure that Mr. Parks or Mr.
Gable would welcome visitors whe*
are interested in digging a site
next year.

County Agent.
