The grinding OF oats and corn, is just as
beneficial as that 81 rye. And, Of a. much
importance as grindipg is boiling the
meal with wafer so as To make thin
mush. This mush, mixed up with hay
or cut straw, will, in day or two, be pre-.
ferred by the animal confined to il, u any
other diet. Que gallon Of meal. added
