It is well to plaster the inside of the silo with a -in. Coat of cement plaster finished as smooth as possible, as the acids of the silage attack the lime in the joints. This plaster also makes the walls smooth enough to allow free settling of the silage and covers up defects in the workmanship of the masons.

The cost of laying blocks, using of course country masons, runs from cts. To 4 cts. A block, the block being 24 ins. Long, 8 ins. High and 9 ins. Thick. This is for labor alone, the cost of mortar being the same as for any other form of block building.
