13. "The isr.mer who pulls fodder gives his labor for the pleasure of pulling it," says Mr. C. B. Williams of the Division of A gi'ononiy.

It is of the utmost im-)orti i nee that all food for live stock shoui be conserved this year. When corn stover nas been property curea and 1 uyidled, it has a great feeding value, and the part that is not consumed by the stock provides one tho 3t absorbents that can be usejl in tha stalls. This is a muqh better way to utilize the plant than by pull ing the1 fodder and leaving the stand ing sta Iks unutilized after the corn has bean removed In the field. Generally speaking, the reduction in yield acre in corn is about equivalent to the value of the fodder secured. From this it may be seen that the per-goff who pulls fodder at the time which it it ordinarily pulled in North Carolina pays for the roughage secured in reduced yields of grain.

All feeds are high, and in all probability will remain high during the coming year. For this reason it Is important that the corn stover, including the stalks and leaves, shall be carefully dried and saved for feeding purposes. It would be a wise plan for all corn growers In the State of North Caro- Una this year to save not half of I their crop, but all of It, by cutting the corn, curio the stalks, and feeding them to their stock.
