OFFICE OF THE SILVER MFG. CO. 



Salem, Ohio, U. S. A., Jan. 1, 1911. 



In issuing the foregoing we have spared neither pains 

 nor expense in producing reliable data and information 

 from best authorities in order to produce a book entirely 

 comprehensive and worthy of the subject. 



In testimony of our efforts we mention with some pride 

 that "Modern Silage Methods" has been furnished on many 

 occasions to be used as a Text Book in the classes of our 

 Agricultural Colleges throughout the States and recently 

 the plates were furnished on request to the Director Gen- 

 eral of Agriculture at Lisbon for the purpose of reproduc- 

 ing the book in the Portuguese language. 



We charge a nominal price merely to help pay postage 

 and to keep curiosity seekers and others not directly inter- 

 ested from answering our advertisements. 



We do not make silos of any description. 



In describing our machines we have endeavored to 

 give in condensed form such information as would enable 

 beginners and others interested to form an estimate of 

 what their cutting equipment would cost, and if the reader 

 contemplates the purchase of an ensilage cutter, we ask 

 that the merits of the "Ohio" be investigated. We solicit 

 your inquiries regarding cutting outfits and shall be glad 

 to supply latest catalog upon application. 



Respectfully, 

 THE SILVER MANUFACTURING CO.
