BARLEY FOR FEEDING PURPOSES
Professor Henry says that dark colored
barley which has been discolored by
rain is just as good for feeding pur-
poses as the bright colored so long as it
is not musty. Moreover, barley at %
TO 80 cents bushel is a cheaper iced
than bran at S14 ton. For dairy COWS
he recommends mixture Of one-third
bran with two-thirds ground wheat or
barley. This he regards as well nigh
perfect grain ration for such COWS. For
pi. feeding he would add bran or shorts.
