The Michigan legislature at its last
session appropriated one thousand dollars
tor experiments in ensiage and the culture
OF amber cane at the state agricultural
college. The season was somewhat late,
but corn for ensilage was ut once sown
and the silo has just been filled, sampes
of the fodder being subjected 10 careful
chemical tests before beng put into the
feeding, for the purpose Of noting any
chemical changes that may take place in
it, and making more complete theoreLi
cal determination of the value Of the new
system of feeding.
We in Vermont are fortunate enough to
have men of sufficient wealth aud enter
prise to test the question for US without
waiting for the slower method of state
aid. Possibly they in Michigan may
determine where the trouble is that our
ensilage is so imperfeotly preserved.

have frequently been asked and have
often attempted to construct table of TODD
value; but have found that If constructed
upon any simple or understandable basis
it was full of errors, and IL the err RS were

practical use. It is one thing to give a
correct opinion respecting the value of two
foods, of which the composition and cost
are known, and smother to make table
wi ich will be applicable to luctuating
prices, more especially if the estima is
to include the manure as well rs the food
value.
BY wav of illustration let us take, for

wax. which is not digestible; and further.
oils have not all the same feeding value.

oil must either re Jumped toge her, or
else special food value, which no one is

each. Again, digestible and indigestible
tcellulose is II very doubtful distinction, and
one more adapted to the laboratory than
the feeding shed. A hungry animal will
digest good deal of so-callcd indigestibe
matter which a well-fei animal will PASS
unchanged through its stomach and intes-
| tines.
Though stated in the Cu'liUGtor that,
according to DR.. Wolff, the relative value
of cotton seed meal is 81 05 for 100 pounds

while the actual price nf these substances
per 100 pounds IS 81 IS for cotton meal
against 81 so for lnlian meal, should
certainly place the fopi value Of the cotton
meal below that of the corn, but should
| place the manure value OF the cotton meal
considerably higher than that of the corn.

rial properties into consideration, that cot

value of corn meal; and venture to think
that if DR.. Wolf had carried out as many
experiments upon feeding as we have done

vaared such view.

a doubt upon this point lot him feed some
pigs on corn meal and others on bean
meal, which latter contains about three
times as much albuminoids as the former;
he will find that the pigs will eat nearly
as much of one food rs of the other, but
that the increase in the animals will be in
relation to the non heterogeneous, and GOi
to the heterogeneous, ingredients Of the two
foods.
Corn is an admirable food for all classes
