Table No. 23 presents the man and horse labor cost for rais¬ 
ing corn silage. These costs are given in total and also the cost 
per ton. It will be seen that the low T est labor cost for raising the 
silage was obtained in the first year. 1912 and 1913 required more 
cultivations because of moister weather conditions which accounts 
for the slightly higher labor cost.
