Put in a corn stove 5 years ago. Start it with wood pellets and let the corn take over. I bought my first and all loads at the CO-OP and the first couple of times I loaded mine into 55 gal plastic drums that I cut the tops off of. third year I bought a bin/hopper type, cone at the bottom at a auction. Paid 600 bucks for it, it will hold about 4 ton. I also bought a auger with a lectric motor gave 7 dollars for 5 of em, 15 ft ea, that I dump the corn from my pickup truck into the catcher which is on the supply end of the auger, gave 10 bucks at a different auction, and after I hooked a couple of the augers together, I auger the corn into the bin. takes a while cause too much corn will pull that little motor down. I have almost 3 tons of corn in the bin at a cost of 400 dollars US which will last me all winter here in Ks. I also put 16 in of insulation in the attic, I think that helped the most. The year we bought the house, we used over 3 tanks of propane at a cost of over 900 dollars. Don't hardly use propane now, haven't used a tank in 3 years now but don't use it for anything but the furnace. Made my own sifter for the corn, just a tall box with two sized screens in it. Love it and thinking about maybe growing my own corn this year. Wish I had more than just the 5 acres I'm on. Good Luck, Kent S. in KS.

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
