INTERNATIONAL ENSILAGE CUTTERS 
 
 International Ensilage Cutters 
 
 Types and Capacities: International ensilage cutters, Types A and B, are built for 
 those who can use machines with large capacities. They are very popular with custom 
 ensilage cutter operators. These large cutters are also much in demand by groups of 
 farmers who club together for the purpose of buying and using a machine to operate on 
 the farms of the club members, where quick work, big capacity, and skilled service are 
 required. 
 
 Type A: The Type A machine requires about 20 to 25-H. P.. oil or gas engine, 
 for running, and has a capacity of from 10 to 25 tons per hour. 
 
 Type B: The Type P> machine requires a 15 to 20-11. P., oil or gas engine, and 
 has a capacity of from 12 to 10 tons per hour. 
 
 These capacities depend of course upon the kind of stalks being cut and the condi- 
 tion the stalks are in at the time of cutting. 
 
 Type E : The Type E ensilage cutter is designed for the farmer who desires to do 
 his own cutting, or where a small machine is required. All) to 15-11. P. gasoline or 
 oil engine is required to operate the Type E. It has a capacity of from 10 to 12 tons 
 per hour, based on the kind and condition of stalks, as above stated. 
 
 Why the Main Frame Should be Made Strong: The cutting and elevating of 
 ensilage is heavy work, to say the least. There is nothing that racks any machine as 
 hard as rapid motion which must be kept up for a long period of time. To keep the 
 working mechanism in alignment and the machine working freely at all times requires 
 an exceptionally strong main frame. 
 
 How the Main Frame on the International is Made : The main frame, or the 
 foundation of the International ensilage cutter, goes through such a careful and pains- 
 taking process of construction that the finished article does not vary one-sixteenth of an 
 inch from the dimensions specified in the blue print. This can he verified by measuring 
 the dimensions of any stock machine. 
 
 All the Holes in the Main Frame Punched at the Same Time: All the holes in 
 the heavy steel channels constituting the main frame are punched in one operation on a 
 gang punch. These channels are individually straightened and gauged on a master form 
 to secure accuracy. Next, the parts of the frame are clamped into a machined riveting 
 form and hot riveted together. The frame as a whole is then checked up again, which 
 insures an accurate foundation for all working parts. The result is a main frame which 
 has the solidity and strength of a one-piece construction, with sufficient rigidity to hold 
 all the working parts, when mounted, in perfect alignment even under the most trying- 
 conditions. 
 
 Reinforcements: The frame is still further reinforced by means of cross sills con- 
 sisting of heavy bar steel.

 A Superior Frame : It is 
 easily superior to any other main 
 
 frame ever built as a foundation 
 for an ensilage cutter. The add- 
 ed cost and trouble in making 
 this frame is more than offset 
 by the gain in ease of operation 
 and the reduced wear on the 
 bearings and working parts. 
 
 Trucks for All Types: The 
 trucks for all machines have a 
 steel construction. The wheels 
 are made with oval spokes, hot 
 riveted in the hub and tire. 
 
 Tires are Made Wide and 
 Strong: The front wheels are 
 amply large, with long hubs 
 equipped with sand rings at 
 either end . They can be turned 
 completely under all machines. 
 There is ample clearance for 
 the conveyor when the front 
 wheel is turned under. 
 
 Driving Mechanism for 
 Types A, B, and E: The driv- 
 ing mechanism for all types of 
 International ensilage cutters is 
 very similar except that Types 
 A and B are equipped with 
 gear-speed changes, allowing 
 eight different lengths of cut. 
 
 The self-aligning boxes and 
 shifting devices £< >r throwingthe 
 mechanism out of gear are practi- 
 cally the same on all sizes, the 
 only difference being in point of 
 location and relation to the rest 
 of the working parts. The 
 changes in length of cut on all 
 types are made by sprockets on 
 the bevel-gear shaft, and th e feed- 
 roll drive shaft. The bevel gear 
 shaft being square, makes it easy 
 t( > slide the sprocket on this shaft 
 back and forth to make the prop- 
 er adjustment f< >r changes in cut

 construction of the frame and that the machine can be easily 
 unmounted if desired to use the ensilage cutter without trucks

 Driving mechanism for Type E Ensilage Cutter. Flywheel shaft has adjustment 
 on end to take up wear and keep knife in the proper relation to the cutter bar 
 
 Aligning Facilities: All working parts are easy of access, so that aligning can be 
 done without any trouble. The bearings are self-aligning, which insures durability and 
 easy running. All bearings which are difficult to oil and require much lubrication are 
 equipped with hard oilers, which enables the operator to oil the bearings even when the 
 machine is running. 
 
 Roller Bearings: Practically all the most important bearings are equipped with 
 roller bushings. Roller bearings on a machine of this kind have much to do with the 
 ease of operation as it tends to reduce friction to a minimum. 
 
 Speed Changes on Types A and B: Types A and B ensilage cutters can be 
 adjusted for cutting eight different lengths 
 of fodder. This is brought about by the 
 speed-change gears, pictured below,

 Automatic chain tightener ad- 
 justed when feeder is reversed 
 
 in connection with the different chain-speed 
 changes. The change gears on the flywheel 
 shaft are held in place with a set screw. In 
 changing the speed it is only necessary to 
 loosen the screw and move the gear backward 
 • >r forward as desired on the flywheel shaft. 
 This requires but a moment's time. The 
 change gear is driven with a long feather key, 
 thus relieving the set screw of all the work 
 except holding the gear in place. 
 
 All the necessary devices for securing 
 the different lengths of cut are found on the 
 machine. There are no loose gears and sprock- 
 ets to carry with the machine and no substitu- 
 tions are necessary. In fact, there is nothing 
 to add or take away, which is a big advantage from a time-saving standpoint. 
 
 Advantage of Change Gears: The lug advantage of the change gears is that it 
 gives all the benefits of two gears in one. Should a tooth break on a gear, it will not 
 delay the operation longer than it takes to loosen the set screw holding the sliding gear 
 on the shaft, and move it so that the other set of gears is in mesh. The same approxi- 
 mate length of cut as before the breakage is then secured by shifting the chain on the 
 double sprocket. Breakage is sometimes caused by hard objects passing through. 
 
 Features Common to All Machines 
 
 Automatic Chain Tighteners: Using a chain to drive the feeding mechanism 
 necessitates an automatic chain tightener, and the question has been to devise some 
 means whereby the chain would automatically adjust itself to different feeding condi- 
 tions when reversing the machine. 
 
 The automatic chain tightener used on the International ensilage cutter has been 
 found very satisfactory. 
 
 Advantage of Tightener: The automatic chain tightener is composed of two 
 rollers fastened to the bracket hinged on the lower feed roll drive shaft. When the 
 conveyor is operated with a forward movement, 
 the top of the chain is slack. The distance be- 
 tween the two rollers is such that the straight 
 part of the chain pressing against the lower 
 roller pulls the upper roller down against the 
 slack part of the chain. When the conveyor is 
 reversed, the chain tightening at the top pulls 
 the lower roller up against the under part of 
 the chain, thus automatically adjusting itself 
 to this condition. The great advantage of this 
 tightener is that while the chain can be opera- 
 ted at the proper tension to run the conveyor 
 steadily and evenly, it does not add to the draft 
 or cause unnecessary wear on the chain. The » * , t

INTERNATIONAL ENSILAGE CUTTERS 
 
 The rear knife wheel bearing is equip- 
 ped with adjustment devices to keep the 
 knife in proper relation to the cutter bar 
 
 bracket to allow for variation in the tight- 
 ness of the chain and the <litt'erent sizes of 
 sprockets. 
 
 Long Bearings for Knife Wheel Shaft: 
 
 The speed of the flywheel, together with the 
 strain of the belt on the pulley, tends to 
 produce a great deal of friction. The heavy 
 work of cutting and elevating also adds to 
 the strain exerted on the bearings. To 
 counteract this friction, the bearings on the 
 International are made long and heavy, and 
 are lined with the best grade of babbitt. 
 As the bearings are held firmly in align- 
 ment and the proper oiling facilities have 
 been provided, the friction is held down 
 to a minimum. 
 Flywheel Adjustment: It is particularly necessary on ensilage cutters to have 
 
 the knives working in proper relation to the cutter bar at all times. If the knives 
 
 are too far away from the cutter bar, they do not cut the fodder properly and the draft 
 
 of the machine is increased. If they are set too close to the cutter bar, they act as a brake on 
 
 the flywheel, and dull both knives and the cutter bar. International ensilage cutters are 
 
 equipped with every adjustment necessary to keep the knives in proper relation to the 
 
 cutter bar at all times. 
 
 The rear box for the flywheel shaft is equipped with an adjusting device, which 
 
 enables the operator to set the flywheel so as to secure the proper alignment of the 
 
 knife to the cutter bar if this relation should 
 
 be disturbed by long wear or heavy strains 
 
 This is accomplished by adjusting the 
 
 screws on the bracket which move the h 
 
 to or from the cutter bar or to either side 
 
 desired. Slotted holes in the box allow si 
 
 an adjustment to be made. Note illust 
 
 tion at top of this page. 
 
 The front end of the flywheel 
 
 shaft is also equipped with a set-screw 
 
 adjustment. A case-hardened steel 
 
 thrust 1 tearing is situated between the 
 
 front end of the flywheel shaft and 
 
 the set screw in this box. 
 
 Powerful Blower: The flywheel 
 
 and the fan blades of the International 
 
 ensilage cutters are so constructed as 
 
 to form an exceedingly strong and 
 
 powerful blower. International ma- 
 chines have elevated ensilage to the 
 
 top < if a ( 14-foot silo with ease,evidence 
 
 enough of superior construction. 
 
 The solid wheel practically forms a vacuum, 
 assuring greater force for elevating ensilage 
 
 10 
 
INTERNATIONAL ENSILAGE CUTTERS 
 
 How the Powerful Blast from the 
 Blower is Secured: The flywheel is 
 practically solid, and is equipped with 
 three knives and three fan blades. The 
 openings in the flywheel are immedi- 
 ately in front of the knives, so that 
 when the knife has passed the cutter 
 bar, the opening is closed with the solid 
 part of the flywheel, causing the fan 
 and side of the wheel to practically form 
 a vacuum, which allows more force or 
 wind pressure for blowing out the en- 
 silage. The fan is placed in such a 
 position that it follows the cut feed, 
 and forces it out, allowing the fan 
 to clear itself instantly. For this 
 
 Photograph showing clean-cut stalks in the posi- 
 tion in which they were delivered hy feed rolls 
 
 practically the same, the only difference 
 being in the different sizes, Types 
 A and B having a 9-inch blower 
 pipe, while the Type E has a 7-inch 
 pipe. 
 
 The Advantage of Using Con- 
 cave Knives: The knives are con- 
 cave, of a special shape, and give a 
 pronounced inward shear cut, which 
 requires the minimum of power, and 
 holds the stalks in position, preventing 
 trash and twine from winding about 
 the flywheel shaft. 
 
 The knives are also offset at the 
 cutting edge to give clearance when 
 passing the cut stalks. 
 
 View of knife, cutter bar and conveyor with feed roll raised. 
 The inner edge of the knife makes a close shear cut, pre- 
 venting stalks, twine, and trash from wedging between 
 the cutter bar and the knife. This insures a clean cut 
 every stroke, and prevents winding on the flywheel shaft 
 
 reason the flywheel always runs freely and 
 easily. 
 
 How the Steel Fan Wings are Attach- 
 ed : The steel fan wings are bolted solidly 
 to the flywheel, braced by angle brackets 
 which are riveted to the fan wings them- 
 selves, and backed up by lugs on the fly- 
 wheel. The outer ends of the fan wings 
 are provided with steel scrapers to prevent 
 the accumulation of cut ensilage on the 
 inside of the housing. 
 
 Size of Blower Pipes : The construc- 
 tion of the blower on all three types is

 i-ull down. This illustration and the one at the top 
 of the page show the great range that can be made 
 in the quantity of stalks being fed to the knife

INTERNATIONAL ENSILAGE CUTTERS 
 
 The wide, specially shaped throat, paddle and feed rolls, and steel 
 conveyor force all the stalks to the knife — no clogging at this point 
 
 Stalks are Held Rigidly in 
 Position While Being Cut: An- 
 other 1 rig advantage of the concave 
 construction of the knives is that 
 the stalks, instead of being forced 
 toward the outer edgeof the knives, 
 are held in the position in which 
 they are placed by the feed rolls. 
 There is no opportunity for stalks 
 to be forced in either direction as 
 the heel of the knife holds them 
 in position while the inward shear 
 severs them. This means that 
 there will be very little shelling 
 of the corn from the cob, thus in- 
 suring a cleaner job of cutting. 
 
 An extra set of knives is fur- 
 nished with each machine so that 
 the work can be carried on while 
 
 the dull set is being sharpened. The knives are easy to remove and put on. 
 
 Cutter Bar: The cutter bar is set up on an angle with the lower edge backed off to give 
 
 a sharp cutting edge. This bar is fastened to its support by plow bolts which are securely held 
 
 by lock nuts. The bar has two cutting edges which are reversible and can be easily ground. 
 
 Force Feed: International ensilage cutters are equipped with a force-feeding device 
 
 which grips and pushes the stalks into the throat of the 
 machine without per- 
 mitting them to clog 
 the feed opening. This 
 is made possible by the 
 great range of move- 
 ments of the paddle and 
 feed rolls, which auto- 
 matically adjust them- 
 selves to the amount of 
 feed. These rolls work 
 independently of each 
 other. If a heavy charge 
 of fodder strikes the 
 paddle roll, it is auto- 
 matically raised, then 
 its weight begins to 
 force the stalks down 
 so that by the time 
 they reach the feed roll, 
 the bulk has been press- 
 ed down compactly,

 Paddle roll in low posi- 
 tion, feed roll raised 
 
 which makes it easi- 
 er for the feed roll 
 to grasp them . The 
 pressure exerted by 
 the paddle roll is 
 regulated automat- 
 ically by the amount 
 of the feed. In ev- 
 ery case the pres- 
 sure is positive and 
 forces the feed into 
 the feed openingand 
 to the knives. 
 
 The shape of the 
 sides of the feed 
 opening is also an 
 advantage in secur- 
 ing a positive feed. 
 Straggling ends of 
 the feed are direct- 
 ed toward acommon 
 centre so that the

 The conveyor is made of

 An Even Feed is Assured: The conveyor is made of sheet-steel slats with the 
 edges turned up to make them more aggressive. When the conveyor and paddle roll 
 grasp the stalks from below and above, the grip on the stalks steadily forces them to 
 the feed rolls. The different parts of the feeding mechanism all travel the same number 
 of feet per minute so that they work in perfect harmony and prevent any slipping of the 
 stalks, making it practically impossible to choke the throat of the machine. A more 
 even flow of fodder results in a much greater capacity for the same size machine than 
 can be obtained by hand feeding. It also relieves the mechanism of the sudden jars 
 and jolts which come with an uneven flow of fodder. Capacity is always increased by 
 steady feeding. 
 
 Figure out what it costs per day to have the capacity of your machine cut down by 
 one-third or one-half on account of uneven feeding. Then multiply by the cost per day 
 and by the number of days in a season's run, and you will know just how much 
 money you can save by running an International ensilage cutter. 
 
 Hand Feeding Not Always Satisfactory: Another point for consideration is 
 that it is absolutely impossible for a man to feed an ensilage cutter by hand evenly and 
 rapidly. Hand feeding at best lowers the capacity of any machine. With an Inter- 
 national there is no variation of feed, hence, the machine is running full capacity at all 
 times, if the pitchers keep the stalks going into the chute continuously. Besides, the 
 use of this chute in connection with the paddle roll, does away with the services of one 
 man which makes a big saving in wages and board possible each cutting season. 
 
 Upper Feed Roll Spring: The spring located above the upper feed roller distrib- 
 utes an even pressure the full width of the feed throat, and keeps the upper roller in a 
 horizontal position as it moves up and down.

 Observe that the man's shoulder rests against 
 the gear clutch lever. It is impossible for 
 him to reach his hand as far forward as the 
 knife without throwing the machine out ol gear 
 
 Safety Devices: International en- 
 silage cutters of all types are equipped ([ 
 with safety devices which cover every 
 part of the machine liable to injure the 
 operator. The state of Minnesota has 
 very strict laws relating to safety appli- 
 ances on farm machinery. On account 
 of these laws many companies are unable 
 to sell their machines in this state. The 
 International ensilage cutter was care- 
 fully examined by the state inspector, 
 and passed all the requirements laid 
 down by the law for safety appliances. 
 Furthermore, the commissioner of labor 
 in the state of Minnesota complimented 
 this Company on the complete safety 
 equipment of the International ensilage 
 cutter. 
 
 Safety Shifting Lever : One of the 
 important features 
 of all International 
 
 ensilage cutters is 
 the safety-shifting 
 lever. This lever extends from the clutch side up over the top of 
 the throat and down to the other side where it is pivoted to the 
 frame. It throws the machine in and out of gear, forward and 
 reverse. It is placed in such a position that the operator will 
 throw the mechanism out of gear automatically should he get into 
 too close proximity to the feed rolls. 
 
 The lever does not lock solid like an ordinary shifting lever, 
 but slips from one notch to another when pressure is applied to 
 secure the three different positions desired in the following order 
 — in gear, out of gear, and reverse, counting toward the throat of 
 the machine. 
 
 The fact that it extends 
 up over the feed throat all< >ws 
 it to be operated from either 
 side of the machine. 
 
 Too much stress cannot 
 be laid upon this feature 
 when one realizes how quick- 
 ly accidents happen and how 
 necessary it is for the operator 
 to have a clutch lever handy 
 and easy to operate when the 
 occasion so requires. Filling a 50-foot silo.

 Shield Over Mechanism: 
 
 The gearing on both sides of 
 the machine is covered with 
 shields to protect it from fall- 
 ing stalks or trash, and also 
 to prevent the operator from 
 coming in contact with any 
 of the gears. The shields can 
 be easily removed to give the 
 operator ready access to the 
 working mechanism when- 
 ever it becomes necessary to 
 make any adjustment or 
 changes. 
 
 It can be seen that every 
 attention has been given, in 
 designing the machine, to pro- 
 tect the operator from per- 
 sonal injury. These features 
 alone will recommend the 
 International ensilage cutter 
 to anyone who is interested 
 in a machine of this type. 
 
 Handy Tool Box: A steel 
 tool box, fastened solidly to 
 the main frame, is provided for the extra set of knives accompanying each machine, 
 and necessary tools. 
 
 The shield over the mechanism keeps any person 
 about the machine out of danger, and protects 
 the gears from contact with hard substances 
 
 The work is always well done with an International Ensilage Cutter

 i-house 
 eccen- 
 
 Fan-House Cover : A fan-house cover that can be held solidly 
 in place and opened quickly and easily is a necessary feature, and 
 that is seldom found on an ensilage cutter. 
 
 by Two Levers: On International cutters the fan house 
 in place by two levers working on the eccentric plan — one 
 on each side of an angle bar fastened to the blower 
 outlet. The eccentric shape of these levers lock 
 the cover solidly in place. When the operator 
 desires to open it, he releases the latches, lifts up 
 the cover, and, stepping around to the rear end, 
 throws the cover over. When this is done, the 
 operator has the flywheel, knife, and cutter bar 
 within convenient reach so that he can easily make 
 whatever adjustments or changes are necessary. 
 Asa matter of fact, there is no adjustment neces- 
 sary to be made that is dim cult to reach. 
 
 These conveniences of operation are of special 
 interest because they save a great deal of time if 
 anything goes wrong with the machine. It is an 
 expensive proposition to have a number of men, 
 teams, and wagons idle for a few hours. 
 
 Made of Sheet Steel and Braced : There is 
 a great deal of wear and strain on the fan-housing. 
 Therefore, it is made of heavy sheet steel, thor- 
 oughly braced. The fan-house sides are each made of a single piece of sheet steel, 
 electrically welded to the side of the rim. The rim is li' -gauge sheet steel, rolled in the 
 shape of a channel. This construction makes the fan-housing practically one piece. 
 Operator is Protected : A grating is placed over the air inlet of the fan-housing in 
 
 the center to protect the 
 operator, or anyone else, 
 from getting their hands 
 into the wheel. 
 
 It is not generally 
 realized that there is a 
 powerful suction at the 
 air inlet to the fan 
 housing, and this, on 
 many machines, is often 
 the cause of unlooked- 
 for accidents. A loose 
 coat will often be 
 drawn in by the suc- 
 tion when the operator 
 passes by. This can- 
 not happen on the Inter- 
 national.

 acity of this band 
 makes for safety, as it adds greatly to the strength of 
 the wheel. The knife seats and lugs are all accurately 
 machined to gauge. The concave knives are ground 
 to accurate thickness. 
 
 How Knives are Attached: Each knife is 
 attached to the wheel with five heavy bolts set staggered and securely held by lock 
 nuts. The lugs against which the knives rest take the shearing strain off the bolts. 
 The fact that the knives and flywheel are accurately gauged and fitted means that 
 when adjustments have once been made the knives can 
 
 be easily and cpaickly changed. 
 
 The point of the knife is pro- 
 tected by a knob-like projection 
 
 in the casting. This projection 
 
 makes it impossible for the 
 
 point of the knife to catch on 
 
 the cutter bar provided the knife 
 
 is securely bolted in place, even 
 
 if the operator allows the fly- 
 wheel adjustment to get loose. 
 
 The projection will strike the 
 
 edge of the throat casting which 
 
 holds the upper feed roll and 
 
 the sound will give the operator 
 
 warning in time to fix the adjust- 
 ment before any harm is done. 
 
 The edge of the throat casting 
 
 slopes at a slight angle, coming 
 
 out even with the cutter bar at 
 
 the bottom. This will force the 
 
 knife away from the cutter bar 
 
 and prevent breakage.

 range of distribution possible 
 
 Blower Pipe : Those who have had trouble with an inferior blower pipe can readily 
 understand what an important part it plays when it comes to filling a silo. A pipe 
 
 which bends or breaks causes no end of trouble, and poor 
 connections, as a rule, either result in clogging or a loss of 
 elevating power. 
 
 Of Right Size to Carry Ensilage Properly : The 
 
 pipe must also be of just the right diameter to give the 
 best results. If it is too large in diameter for the power 
 exerted by the blower, the ensilage will not be elevated to 
 any great height. If it is too small for the amount of 
 ensilage cut, it will become clogged. 
 
 How Pipe is Made: The blower pipe of the Inter- 
 national ensilage cutter is made of heavy galvanized sheet 
 steel. Each section is fitted with two malleable iron rings. 
 ( hu> ring is riveted to the lower end of the pipe and the 
 edge of the sheet steel is bent over, fitting around the ring 
 and making a tight, smooth finish. The other ring is 
 riveted to the pipe, leaving three-quarters of an inch pro- 
 jecting beyond it.

 ^ This projection is crimped inward and fits into the 
 
 ^k £or C lower end of the next pipe section, giving practically 
 
 a telescoping effect. The top ring of the lower section 
 and the bottom ring of the upper section are held 
 tightly together by four bolts on the A and B, and 
 three on the E. This form of construction gives a 
 connection which is tight, and at the same time is 
 perfectly smooth on the inside. 
 
 Deflector: The deflector regularly furnished 
 with International ensilage cutters does not have 
 the distributor attachment. It has an up-and-down 
 adjustment so that ensilage can be thrown from one 
 side of the silo to the other, but not in a complete 
 circle as with the distributor. 
 
 A Distributor an Advantage: The advantage 
 of using a distributor is apparent to anyone who has 
 ever had the experience of work- 
 ing on the inside of a silo. Ordi- 
 narily, the heavier-cut fodder falls 
 in one place and the lighter por- 
 tions in another. With the dis- 
 tributor the silo is solidly and 
 evenly filled, with less help and 
 greater convenience. 
 
 The distributor and distrib- 
 uting pipe are furnished only on special order. 
 Blower pipe is not priced with the machine. 
 Length of pipe must be specified with order. 
 For description of different sizes and lengths 
 of pipe, see page 22.

 Corn Chute a Big Advan- 
 tage in Feeding: International 
 
 ensilage cutters are convenient 
 to feed, due to the corn chute 
 which is set up at an angle at 
 the end of the feed table. It is 
 very easy to unload onto this 
 
 Observe that the feeder is at the end of the chute, free 
 from danger of coming in contact with the mechanism 
 
 chute because the operator drives up to the end 
 of it and drops his bundles on the incline, from 
 which they slide down onto the feed apron. The 
 driver throws the bundles into this chute in such 
 a way that when they get onto the feed apr< >n they 
 are forced into the machine by the paddle roll, 
 without needing an extra man at the feed open- 
 ing to give them direction. This means a big 
 saving in both labor and money. The corn chute 
 and paddle-roD combination practically takes 
 
 The size and shape of the end of the chute 
 makes it an easy matter to feed in the stalks 
 
 the place and does the work 
 of one man. 
 
 Easy to Set: When set- 
 ting the machine, it is only 
 necessary to drive up to the 
 silo in the position desired, 
 lower the leg at the outer 
 corner of the conveyor, put 
 on the chute, and brace the 
 machine against the power. 
 
 The cuts show different 
 positions in which the ma- 
 chine can be set to the silo. 
 
 The driver can drive his wagon so that he does not 
 have to walk along the rack to feed the machine

 Corn fodder in the winter — Note the snow 
 
 Cutting Corn Fodder: A 
 
 great many people who do 
 not have silos would like to 
 cut up their corn fodder for 
 feed in winter. A particular 
 advantage of this is that the 
 fodder is put in much more 
 edible condition for the stock 
 than when fed direct from the 
 field. It can also be handled 
 much easier than when there 
 are cornstalks in the feed. 
 There is also less waste, as 
 every part of the stalk is 
 utilized. 
 
 The center illustration on 
 this page shows the method 
 pursued by one farmer in tak- 
 ing: care of the cut fodder. 
 
 As fast as the fodder was 
 made, he made a housing for 
 it out of the uncut fodder. 
 This work was done in the 
 winter when there was snow 
 on the ground. The fact that 
 the machine successfully cut 
 this fodder is the best evi- 
 dence in the world of its 
 efficiency for all cornstalk 
 cutting purposes.

 ing the ensilage onto a stack 
 
 The illustration at the 
 bottom of the page was 
 taken to show the great 
 contrast between the cut fod- 
 der and the uncut. Even 
 the fineness of the shredded 
 stover is shown very clearly. 
 The farmer is fast begin- 
 ning to realize the advantages 
 of dry cut fodder as a feed, 
 over the uncut.

INTERNATIONAL ENSILAGE CUTTERS 
 
 Knife-Grinding Attachment for International Ensilage Cutters: The local facili- 
 ties on some farms do not provide adequate means for the proper grinding of ensilage 
 cutter knives, and poor work and an increase in the amount of power required to give 
 the best results is always the outcome of trying to do the work with knives which are 
 not in the best condition. For this reason a knife-grinding attachment is regularly 
 furnished for all sizes of International ensilage cutters. 
 
 The stone is a iva,ter stone, the same as is used in the shops, and will not draw the 
 temper from the knives. The outfit is self-contained, is shielded, and the stone is nar- 
 row enough to do good work on the curved part of the knives. As two sets of knives 
 are furnished with each machine, one set can be sharpened while the other set is work- 
 ing. In this way the machine can be kept in good working condition without the 
 delay of taking the knives to town to be sharpened. A great deal of expense and 
 annoyance can be saved in this way.
