PRESERVATIVES ADD
'l) lk"
WOOD PRESERVATION LABORATORY OP FOREST SERVICE
(Prepared by the United State Depart-
ment of Agriculture)
Many fanners are coming to recog-
nize that wooden silos the most com-
mon type of preservers of succulent
farm feeds must themselves be pre-
served Untreated wooden silos even
when built of such durable material
as heart cypress or redwood are sub-
ject to more or less rotting especially
near the foundation where moist con-
ditions are favorable for the develop-
ment of the fungus of decay
That the wooden silo Is popular is
shown by the fact that in 1013 alone
about 100000000 board feet of high-
grade lumber was used In alio con-
struction while later statistics Indi-
cate that the consumption of lumber
for this purpose Is steadily increasing
The Importance of some kind of pre-
servative treatment to prevent decay
in wooden silos therefore has be-
come generally recognized Several
manufacturers of wood-stave silos are
now making use of preservatives so
that It U possible to purchase the silo
material already treated
Of the various preservatives in gen-
eral nRe a good grade of coal-tar creo-
sote is very satisfactory for preserv-
ing timber Almost any thorough
method of treatment with this present-
tive ought to add to Jhe life of the
ilo Superficial methods however
such as applying with a brush dip-
ping In the preservative or spraying
re not suffleeint By far tbe best
method Is to have the staves treated
with the preservative In cloned retort
under pressure and when so treated
they should last indefinitely and
should be more satisfactory to the pur-
chaser Those who are considering the pur-
chase of treated' silos should investi-
gate carefully the methods used and
If- greatest permaneqee la desired
should choose only material that has
received a thorough-pressure treat-
ment Siloe built of such material
have the additional advantage of re-
duction In the swelling and shrinking
of the staves and hence they can be
kept tight more easily Another ad-
vantage of silos built of well-treated
wood la that they need not be painted
Effect of Preservative Treatment

ative treatment upon the durability of

BEST PLAN TO KEEP
FALL PIGS GROWING
Large Hogs Should Be Marketed
Soon as in Fit Condition
for the Market
It la not good practice to leave small
pigs with the larger ones now The
mall ones will become stunted by be-
ing crowded away from feeding troughs
and much loss will be Incurred If the
larger hogs are fit for market It will
not pay to feed them longer They
should he sold as soon as fit hut not a
day sooner There la a tine when hogs
are at a maximum of efficiency regard-
ing profit And It pays to keep the fall
plga growing Tbe more growth before
hard winter weather the more profit-
able will be the development
Comfortable quarters wlU promote
the desired growth and also plenty of
exercise should be given Charcoal
ashes sulphur and salt should he kept
In every feeding yard
The breeder of hogs should ha wide
awake There are many apparently
smaU Items In the management that
are liable to be overlooked 8ee that
the animals are clean and free from
lice A lousy hog la hard to fatten hnd
to never a money maker ‘
PRODUCTIVE PERIOD
OF THE DAIRY COWS
Most Useful Age Is Between
Third Fourth Fifth and
Possibly Sixth Calf
(By DR R H WILLIAMS Animal Hu-
KnSmn Arison Experiment Station)
Cows gradually Increase In the
quantity of milk yielded with each lac-
tation period until the third or fourth
calf la dropped After this time about
two or Three lactation periods remain
about the same and then they begin to
fall appreciably In the amount of milk
Thus It la aeen that the most useful
period of cow la between the third

formation as to the effect of the treat-
ed wood upon the surrounding silage
the federal forest products laboratory
began experiments in 1910 In co-operation
with the University of Wisconsin
About five years after the experiments
werp begun the treated wood had not
commenced to decay Information In
regard to the effect of treated wood
upon the surrounding silage was ob-
tained by an Independent test after
thi first season wood treated with
creoante having been burled In the sil-
age during the process of filling This
contaminated the silage sufficiently to
Wood-Stave Silo
give a strong odor but the quantity
of creosote In the feed could not be
determined by analysis jjhls silage
when fed to cows was not relished and
two of the animals were' affected
slightly by It This was a very severe
teat however for the wood was given
a heavier treatment than la now con-
sidered necessary Moreover had the
contaminated portion been thoroughly
mixed with the rest of the silage it
Is considered doubtful whether the ef-
fect would have been noticeable This
conclusion Is borne out by the results
obtained in practice During the sev-
eral years In which It has been tne
practice to treat wood for altos the
dairy division has not heard of a
single case In which the health of
the animals has been Impaired by
feeding such silage
fourth fifth and possibly sixth calf
and It is a good plan to try to purchase
cows at the beginning of thla period
and sell them towards the end of It
Unfortunately the other fellow has the
advantage of milking the cows first
and If he Is an Intelligent person he
will not sell anything but the Inferior
milker On this account It I often
necessary to raise hne’s heifers and
test them out for one’s seif
Good purebred cows are always re-
tained In the herd as long as they
prove satisfactory breeders On the
other hund ordinary or Inferior pure-
bred ctfws should be disposed of when
they are about eleven or twelve years
old for after this time they are not
as regular breeders and It la Just pos-
sible that calves from old cows are not
a good as those from cows In their
prime of life In a well-managed herd
one can have the cows to average a
calf at twelve or thirteen months If
only good vigorous animals are re-
tained On the other hand in most
herds dairy cows do not average a calf
for the herd In leu time than fifteen or
eighteen months Since the calves
raised are not an Inconsiderable item In
the profit of the dajry business It la
thus important to keep your vigorous
cows that are persistent and regular
breeder
