1ne ABOVE CaDle SHOWS at glance how
the food has been utilized. In this case
we have
II lbs. utilized as milk.
81 lbs. indigestible matter
81 lbs. the waste of the BODY
l65 lbs weight of food given.
The half bushel of potatoes and the grass
give the solid constituents of the milk :;
the water supplies that fluid in the milk.
The solid portion of the milk, the
-caseine butter globules, sugar and ash
amount to 25 o.; the butter about II o.,
the result of feeding 30 pounds of
patatoes and Is pounds of rich grass.
III 30 pounds of potatoes and Is pounds
OF grass give at the best but II OF. of
butter, what can be obtained at the best
from feeding one bushel, or 46 pounds of
apples alone? Compare. the results of
the analysis, and we reach approximate
results of products. 1t is clear that a
bushel of apples Of the best ripe kinds
fed to mich cows cannot return by any
possibility more than 2 or on. of Finely
!tiavored butter" The loose statements
made by many farmers as the results of
their experiments are not only worthless,
but misleading. Thousands Of these
errors are circulating through the press,
and their influence is not good.
AS regards apples as food for animals,
our practical experience in feeding them
confirms the results Of analysis. They
are of some value, and when fed in con-
nection with meal serve to give zest to
the appetite and keep animals in health.
The ripper the apple the better the re-
suits, and they should not be fed in a
half-frozen state to mich COWS, as this
course will invariably cut short the milk
supply. It they are cooked by boiling,
their value is much enhanced as more
perfect digestion results.

The amount of albumen contained was
found to be 900 per cent, or double the
amount in apples; of caseine there is a
trace less than O.02 per cent. The amount
of water is less, and of starch, of which
there is none in apples, we find more
than l3 per cent. Assuming bushel of
potatoes to weigh so pounds, we have
rather more than half pound of albu-
men, a few grains of fat and caseine, and
about pounds of starch. These prin-
ciples comprise about all that has food
value in potatoes. Contrasting the two
sources of food, apples and potatoes, it
will be seen that the latter have at least
ten times the value of the former unless
an exaggerated estimate is placed upon
the value of glucose contained in apples.

ents of food) LOG per cent more than
potatoes, carbohydrates (fat-forming ma

Turnips occupy low place in the scale
of values in proportion to bulk.
A correspondent of an agricultural
paper having stated that in feeding ap-
pies to this cows (the kind not stated) a
bushel of ripe fruit gave him ga pound
of finely favored butter" let us briefly
examine the statement. In order to do
this understandingly, we must consider
the elements of fool which afford money
value outside of the maintenance of the
animal in health, and Independent of
any production of flesh. If we take a
cow in milk, and feed her during "a
hours with known quantity of food
maintaining her of the same weight at
the close of the experiment as at the
commencement, we obtain valuable
knowledge. We will give her of
