After long experience, deep researches into chymistry,
by the aid of costly machinery, I have discovered the means
Whereby oats, beans, and oilcake may be entirely dispensed

a compound meal, composed of locust beans, Indian corn,
linseed, &c., at .Cl 6 per ton, which is equal in value to £24
Worth of oats, beans, or any other feeding material in the
market. Two quarts of this compound meal, weighing 31bs.,
at the cost of 5d., mixed with a peck of chopped hay, is a feed

which produce decline in youth or more frequently premature

" This work, which for twenty years has stood the test of
professional criticism and empirical hostility, treats in aplain

bility ; and to invalids- suffering from youthful errors and
