hay are considerably larger than those receiving grass silage as the sole 

 roughage. The animals receiving corn silage with grass silage have grown 

 the poorest in both breeds, but the addition of hay to this combination has 

 improved growth to some extent. The animals of this experiment appear to 

 be in good condition generally and would be accepted as normal in most 

 dairy herds.

Bisulfate Applicator Can Be Made from Corn Planter 



Gravity type applicators used for applying sodium metal)isulfite to for- 

 age at time of ensiling have not worked satisfactorily. The bisulfite bridged 

 over and constant attention was required to keep the material flowing. 

 Types tested included one built to be mounted on the field chopper and an- 

 other mounted above the feed table of the forage blower. 



A revolving pan type fertilizer attachment from a corn planter or side 

 dressing cultivator was converted into a very satisfactory applicator. Pow-er
