Book Description
Excerpt from A Treatise on Ensilage Mr. Morris and Mr. Potter state that with ensilaged clover, and brew ers' grains, their cattle are kept in much better condition than with hay and same quantity of grains - and by careful experiments, they find that the yield of milk and butter is greater, and the butter is improved in flavor and color, than when fed in the dry state. The great saving by this system, is in being able to allow the maize or other crop to reach its full maturity for this purpose; also in barn room and insurance. Mr. Mills states that 500 tons of ensilaged-maize the past year cost him $500, that it has taken the place of 300 tons of hay that would have cost him or been worth and that his 120 head of cattle are in better condition than they would have been with the hay. Perhaps the best and most disinterested testimony as to the value of this system is the report of prof. 000k, of New Jersey Agricultural Experiment station he says: It is claimed for ensilage that it makes winter butter equal to June butter, a claim willingly admitted, it being to our know ledge of unusually fine flavor and color. Milch cows can be safely fed large quantities of this fodder, which is a perfect substitute for hay. If it is of first class quality, eighty pounds per day will furnish an animal with' the full amount of carbohydrates. The corn-plant is in perfect condition only a few days to each crop, and it is exceedingly important to cut it at precisely the right stage of growth. I am satisfied that the carelessness of the farming community on this head has caused a great deal of loss to themselves and to the people whom they feed. The perennial grasses have but little sugar and can be fed at any time, but better milk, butter and cheese can be made when they are young and j nioy than when they are dried; but with cereals, which are annual, there is another law, viz.: the starch which largely composes these is insipid until it has ripened into sugar, by means of or at the time of tasseling or flowering. This process requires air and sun. Much broadcast corn is fed while unpalatable and unhealthy, both to the animal that eats it and the human animal that cats. And drinks the product of the unripe food. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Biology of Ensilage Ensilage is a very variable product. The variations are due to so many factors, including differences in the original material, in the states and conditions of the weather, and in the construction of the storage bins, - that great care and much knowledge must be required to secure reasonably uniform results.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on Ensilage and Silos: Containing Many Valuable Letters From Prominent Stock-Raisers and Farmers, Giving Their Actual Experience With Ensilage, a Book That Should Be Read by Every Farmer in the Land IT is not an uncommon occurrence for us to receive letters ask ing about ensilage, manner of building, cost of silo, putting in, etc. Although we have given the subject a great deal of careful study and attention, we are not sufficiently informed to always give the information desired. There has been a great number of books published on this subject, but most of them are from theory only, and do not furnish the hard facts that most farmers need. Believing that many farmers Would adopt this valuable system of supplying green fodder for their stock in winter if they were informed on the merits and expense of it, we decided to gather all the valuable and practical information possible from our customers, whom we know that have given this system a thorough-and careful trial, and to publish it in book form for free distribution. With this end in miew, we wrote to our ensilage friends giving in full detail our object, and requesting them to give us what information they could regarding the subject, what it cost per ton to raise it, get it in, store it, manner of building silo, whether above or below ground, cost of construction, and general ideas regarding it. They have responded to eur call very liberally, and we are thus enabled to give our friends who are interested in this subject some very important and valuable details on this great question. To our friends who have so kindly helped us in this work, we extend our heartiest thanks, and can assure them that they have thus extended a helping hand to their brother farmers, and we believe their kindness will be greatly appreciated. Without their kind aid we could not have obtained this valuable information, and to them we respectfully dedicate this book.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Silo and Silage A silo is simply an air-tight, water-tight box, in which green, succulent herbage may be placed and preserved as we preserve green fruit. It must not only preserve the contents from the air, but also protect against frost. Silage - ensilage is a less acceptable term for the same sub stance - is the material that has been preserved in the silo.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Book on Silage The history of the silo dates back to antiquity. Ancient writers speak of the practice of burying grain in underground pits to save it for future use or to hide it from their enemies, and the evidence at hand goes to show that semi-barbaric peoples in the different parts of the world have known and practiced this method. Green forage was preserved in the same way in the early history of the races of Northern Europe, notably in Sweden and the Baltic provinces, where the uncertainty of the weather and the low summer temperature rendered difficult the proper curing of the hay. It was not, however, until toward the middle of the present century that the practice of preserving green fodder by means of pits in the ground became more known. The method was especially practiced in central Europe, where large quantities of green leaves and tops were available every fall in the sugar-beet districts; also green forage, such as Indian corn fodder, green clover, grass, etc., was treated by this method; the fodder being placed in pits ten to twelve feet square, or larger, and as many feet deep; these were often lined with wood, and puddled below and at the sides with clay. The fodder was spread evenly in the pits, and well trampled down; when the pit was full the whole was covered with boards and a layer of earth one to two feet thick; such pits would hold nearly ten tons when full.
