142 Colcord's System of 



ter condition than any corn fodder we have 

 seen. 



[Following the above, and in the same paper, 

 there was printed a description of the Colcord 

 process of preserving green forage without 

 heat or fermentation, said description being 

 very similar to that printed on p. 1 1 2 of this 

 treatise.] 



[From the New England Farmer, April, 6, 1889.] 



A SUGGESTION FOR THE EXPERIMENT 

 STATIONS. 



The Rural New Yorker, noticing the ensi- 

 lage ideas of Mr. S. M. Colcord, which have 

 been noticed several times in these columns, 

 says, "We have long believed that this process 

 of preparing silage will some day revolution- 

 ize the ensilage business." The Rural New 

 Yorker says in print what the editors of this 

 paper have frequently said to Mr. Colcord 

 personally, that the experiment stations should 

 test this patent system of ensilage-making, side 

 by side with the ordinary silo.
