In tests, silage was transferred into empty and partially filled silos using a silage cutter, with three men trampling inside. The quality of silage fed afterward remained excellent.

New Pest of Bees Found in Maryland and Elsewhere
A newly discovered bee louse Braula cocca Nitzch has appeared in Carroll County Maryland and parts of the United States. The pest likely arrived with European queen bees and though not a severe menace, beekeepers should eradicate it when found. It weakens colonies by feeding on honey and harassing the queen, living on workers and queens but rarely on drones. The USDA Circular 334 by apiculturist BE O F Philips outlines the species, distribution, feeding, and control methods and may be obtained while supplies last by mailing the USDA in Washington.

Geese Thrive on Various Pastures for Forage
Geese prosper on nearly any pasture grass palatable to cows. Orchard and clover sod create ideal range. Red clover meadows and mixed pastures work well for geese. Low land pastures may be naturally seeded with grasses suited to geese.
Farm Notes The Green Path To Profit In Agriculture
Greens in the garden are better than greenbacks in pocket. It costs more to do without good farm machinery than to buy it. Feed your soil and your soil will feed you. Weed seeds are costly to the farm in price and crop value. The Ohio agricultural experiment station finds saving 53 cents a ton by direct manure application. Better gardens and home canning may save more than raising cheap food. The way to meet dairy cows mineral needs is lime and phosphorus in soil to grow high mineral roughages like clover and alfalfa.
