W. T. BLAKLEY RAISES CANE
Cuts Up Twelve Tons For Ensilage
To Feed Cattle
W. T. Blakley of Farley has just completed the cutting of ensilage and filling his silo on his farm near Farley.
Included in the fodder are twelve tons of sugar cane, grown on the Blakley farm.
"My, but the cattle like this," said Mr. Blakley, in speaking of this new kind of fodder. "We cut up and packed in the silo, with the other ensilage, about twelve tons of juicy, sweet sugar cane. The cows fairly 'lick their chops' after eating it. Next year I expect to raise still more."
A. J. Trusty, who also has a farm near the Blakley farm, on section 16, Township 148, Range 32, raised an acre and a half of cane and expects to secure 200 gallons of syrup from his crop.
