Interest in production of corn) silage sparked in perhaps a| dozen communities and involving | 800 to 900 acres or even more, has been reported to The Guard: | ian this week. “- The. largest’ single acreage | production is that of Leo -P. Mc- Issac, Mermaid who plans on 100 acres of corn this year. But | there are groups interested in| such widely scattered commun.- | ities as Point Prim, Orwell and| Newton, Village Green, Earns- cliffe, Mt. Herbert, York and Suffolk, O'Leary, the Summer.

Dairy silos contemplated bere now are 18-foot in diameter, 45 feet in height and have a capac- ity of approximately 250 tons, Mr. MclIssac told The Guardian. Cost of the concrete stave type of silo this size runs to approx- imately $3,700, it was learned. That would handle about 50 dairy cows and ealves, it was said. Other types would vary in cost.
One beef-type structure, Mr. MclIsaae said, runs to about 20 feet in diameter and would handle 100 feeders,.or 50 to 60 cows in a cow-calf operation.
Mr. MclIsaac who operates a arm machinery business in Charlottetown,said_that_in_the first two-and one-half hours of Tuesday forenoon, no less than six Island: farmers were seeking his advice on types of corn to plant, and the type and the‘cost of machinery that corn product- ion .and harvesting would re-
quire.

The Mermaid farmer said that the farmers interested in con-
85. acres of it, incidentally the several varieties grown produced an average of 18 tons per acre and came close to filling his 750-ton silo.
gructing silos are awaiting the decisibn of the government con- cerning financtal assistance.
' When the beef: producers met here last month they talked with
gall Charles Kemp. Pallbearers were: D.R. Cummings, Wifred Furness, William Howlett, E.J. MacDougall Joseph B. MacDon- ald, Cecil Tweedy. Interment was in the church cemetery.

“If I talked for a time about educating young farm: boys for employment off the farm, don’t” think I’m ‘trying to. encourgge our young chaps to leave the farm,,’ he explained. ;
“1 firmly believe that, we will require some of the keenest young men in the country to operate the farms of the future « - - we must make absolutely Lcertain that-our young-men-are— properly and adequately train-- ed for this important industry, and it will become increasingly important in future years, Dr. Jenkins emphasized.
