Thirty-fourth Annual Convention.

Where there is a smooth level floor from the silo through 

 the feeding alley, a cart similar to the one shown in Cut 6 will 

 prove a great convenience in feeding. When built outside the 

 barn the silo should be within a few feet of it and connected by 

 a covered passage. Where it is desired to drive up to the barn 

 with grain only, the arrangement may be as in Cut 5. If it is 

 necessary to fill the hay loft from the end of the barn at which 

 the silo is located, a movable track for the silage car can be 

 arranged to extend from the silo to the barn ,(Cut 7) with a car 

 constructed as shown in Cut 8. Cuts 1, 3, 3, and 4 show how 

 silos ma ybe conveniently located. 



Cut 9. — Cheap Octagonal Silo Which Did Not Preserve Its Contents Per- 

 fectly. This is Not a Good Shape Even When 

 Properly Constructed.
