Yet in this same corn belt many I corn growers waste every year almost as large I *’ a part of the corn crop as eggs are of the I poultry business. The feeding value of corn I stover, cut at the right time and properly I | ■ cured, is about one-third of the total crop. If I you have been letting this good fodder go to I waste you should know that there is an easy I i ■ way to save it. That way is to use an I I H C Corn Binder I Deering, McCormick, Milwaukee, or Osborne I ' The difficulty has been to harvest the corn I at the right time, and quickly enough to retain I I all the good feeding value of the stalks and I , leaves. You can’t always get extra help to I harvest it quickly with corn knives. With an I 1 H C corn binder you can harvest forty acres I in seven days from the time the ears begin to glaze. Then, when the whole crop is run through an IHC busker and shredder -either 3 Deering, McCormick, or Plano — you have secured as nearly all of your corn crop as could ■ be harvested. Your corn is husked clean and 1 you have besides a large quantity of nutritious roughage for the winter feeding of your stock. Also, there is no better, quicker, or cheaper way of cutting corn for ensilage than with an IH C corn binder. See the I H C local dealer and have him I show an IH C corn binder. He will give you full information and supply you with catalogues, or, write International Harvester Company of America | 1, (Incorporated) I Ft, Wayne Ind.
