RESULT OF TESTS.
Result Of Horse Fodder Tests Given Out
by Fargo Agricultural College.

Some interesting results of expert
ments in horse feeding at the state girl
cultural college ut Fargo have recently
been made public by the faculty and
show that bronze hay gave good re-
suits when fed to work horses as did
timothy hay. Dat straw was eatisfac-
torily used for feeding horses which d d
light work and for those which were idle.
One-fourth more grain was required 10
support horses doing light work when
they we're fed straw. Barley was not
equal to OATS in feeding value per pound,
but was nearly as good. Mules did not
relish barley. Matted barley was not so
valuable for work horses as oats and was
not equal IN value to the dry barley from
which it came. Corn fed in connection
with oats in tie proportion Of 100 pounds
OF corn to 1875 pounds of oats, had greater
value than oats; US pounds OF corn
equalled 100 pounds of oats when fed to
work horses. Whole wheat fed alone
was an unsatisfactory feed for horses.
Wheat ground and mixed with bran in
the proportion of two parts of wheat to
one part of bran by weight gave good re-
suits. Bran and shorts mixed il equal
parts by weigh, was equal to oats in
feedinp yalue

in fact almost everybody has adopted the
use OF fax straw as fuel in their homes,
which are fully as comfortable and warm
as though wood or coal we're being used

these especially in year when the crop
was not as good as might generally be
wished for.
