Sept 27 - Mitchell, SD - milo stalks

I dont' how many of you have every heard of milo, much less seen it. My uncles used to grow it on their farms in North Carolina. It is grown primarily as a crop to feed cattle in the winter. It is a grain (as you can see here) and can be stored and used later for cattle feed.

The stalks shown here are about 7 - 10 inches long. It's a wonder that the birds don't come along and eat the decorations!
