WHEAT AS A FOOD FOR GROWING
AND FATTENING ANIMALS.

During the past year there have been
numerous inquiries in regard to the
chemical composition of wheat as COM
pared with corn and oats, its relative
value as food for growing and fatten-
ing animals, and the method of feeding
which would produce the best results.
These inquiries have, doubtless, been
suggested by the great change in the
comparative prices of the grains just

Che Conservative.

practical results of feeding. We should
not care to assert, for instance, that
wheat screenings are in general more
valuable as food for animals than the
plump, sound wheat, although the
table would indicate this to be the case.
We may, however, safely conclude that
the screenings and imperfect wheat
should be fed and only the best wheat
put upon the market.
It is seen that wheat contains practi-
cally the same amount Of protein per 100
The Conservative, 1901-09-26

simulated will be used for this purpose.
Young growing animals require more
protein than older ones, and also more
than fattening animals, in order to
supply material for building up the
muscles, tendons, and other albuminoid
structures.
Fattening Quality of Wheat.
We must not conclude from these
facts, as some have, that because wheat
is particularly indicated for young
growing animals it is not adapted for
those which are fattening. The fallacy
of such conclusion is shown by the
following comparisons.
This table brings out in the clearest
possible manner, first, the near approach
chemically of 1866 pounds of wheat to
the German standard ration for grow
ing cattle from to 12 months of age,
and, secondly, the fact that 1919 pounds
of wheat comes much nearer the feed
ing standard for fattening cattle than
does the same quantity Of corn. The
proportion of the protein to carbohy-
drates and to fat is very much nearer
the standard in wheat than in corn.
Tried by these standards wheat is better
both for growing and fattening animals
than is corn.
These standards, however, are not to
be considered as perfect. Corn comes
nearer being an ideal grain for fattening
animals in this country than is indicat-
ed by the tables. Such animals appar
emily do not need as much protein as is
contained in the standard, and may
take with advantage more carbohy-
drates and fat. Equal parts of wheat
and corn should, therefore, prove better
for fattening animals than either of
these grains alone. For growing ami
mails corn is plainly not so suitable as is
wheat or oats.
Equal Conditions Favor Wheat Feed.
When wheat and corn are the same
price per bushel, it is preferable to feed
wheat and sell corn: First, because
wheat weighs per cent. heavier per
bushel than corn; secondly, because
wheat is weight for weight an equally
Corhohr- ,Nutr;tivo

mentioned. In the past we have been
accustomed to see bushel of wheat sell
for two or three times as much as
bushel of corn. Recently we have seen
Sc pounds of corn sell for more than
could be obtained for 60 pounds of
wheat. This readjustment of the prices
of grain evidently calls for reconsider
alton of the methods for disposing of
the cereal crops in order to determine
which is most profitable under present
conditions.
The purpose of this circular is to give
a direct and definite answer to the ques-
tions which have been most frequently
asked concerning the use of wheat as a
food for stock.
Comparative Digestible Values.
The quantity and proportion of the
different proximate constituents which
are present in digestible form in 100
pounds of some of the common feeding
stuffs is compared in the following table
with the German feeding standards.
This table presents the chemical as
pect of the subject, and is valuable in
the indications and suggestions which
may be obtained from it. The informa-
ton which it contains should, however,
be used in connection with our knowl-
edge Of the habits of animals and the

prominent part, but it may also be

the fat and the protein in the food which
is eaten. The carbohydrates sustain

good grain for fattening animals, and
better for growing animals; and thirdly,
because there is much less value in fer
tilizing elements removed from the
farm in corn than in wheat.
There are certain points to be borne
in mind when one is commencing to
feed wheat. Our domesticated animals
are all very fond of it, but are not ac-

and oats contain about 80 per cent. more
protein than corn. On the other hand,
wheat only has about one-half as much
fatty matter as corn and oats. In car
bohydrates the position of wheat is
about halfway between that of corn and
oats.

stituents of grain, goes to build up the

A BIG WEDDING FEE.

The Generous Uses to Which Henry
Ward Beecher Put 1t.
In his "Eccentricities Of Genius" Ma
jor Pond says that often while travel
ing Henry Ward Beecher improved his
time by having what he called "a gen.
eral housccleaning" of his pockets,
which would get loaded up with letters
and papers until they could hold no
more when he would clear them out
and destroy such papers as were worth
less.
On one occasion Beecher happened
TO put his hand In the watch pocket
Of his pantaloOns and found there
little envelope which he opened When
he saw its contents. he called Major
Pond to sit beside him and remarked:
"You remember the evening l married
C. p. Huntington. l was so much in
terested In the subject that l forgot
he handed me little envelope as he
went out of the door. l put 1t in the
watch pocket Of my pantaloons and
never thought Of 1t again until just
now, and here 1t is, four $1,000 bills.
Now" he said, don't tell any one
about it, and we will have a good time
and make some happiness with this
money. We will just consider that we
found It,"
And so In day or two Mr. Beecher
went with Major Pond to look at a
cargo Of fine oriental rugs. many of
which he purchased and sent to differ
ent friends, and afterward he spent
what remained of the money for coin
silver lamps, unmounted gems and va
rious pieces of bric-a-brac, all Of which
he gave away until he had used up
the entire $4,000 "in making happiness
among those whom he loved"
After Mr.. Beecher's death the major
related to Mr.. Huntington the Incident
of this discovery Of the four $1,000
bills, and the railway magnate observ-
ed: II should never have given them
to him. 1t was all wrong. | made
mistake. Money never did him any

The Shocks Of Exercise LenGtheA
Them and Keep Them Even.
As fact, says the author, our lower
limbs are not usually both Of exactly
the same length, though they are 80 for
all practical purposes. The left is usu-
ally the longer, though the gait is not
notably Influenced by this fact. At
birth the lower limbs are shorter than
the upper, and their movements are
rather Of the prehensile type. 1--WE are
not born leggy like the foal or kanga-
roo, but we gradually achieve leggi-
ness" The bones increase in length, not
so much by interstitial deposit as by
addition to their ends-that Is, by pro-
gressive ossif1cation of the layer Of car
tllage which intervenes between the
end Of the shaft and the epiphysis. Os-
siAcation goes on till the component
parts of the bone are all united by bony
matter, and thus the stature Of the In
dividual Is determined.
If from Inflammation or injury an
epiphysis be damaged, one limb may be
shorter than the other, or infammatory
stimulation may even induce an in
creased length In the bone affected. The
skeletons of tortoises, not being sub
jected to sudden Jars, have no epiphy-
ses at the ends Of the long bones,
whereas in the leaping frog the extrem-
tiles Of the humerus and femur long re-
main as separate epiphyses. The con-
tinuous conclusions to which the ends
of the bones of the lower limbs are ex-
posed when a vigorous child Is excited
by it's own natural spirit to run about
are doubtless Of great value In assist
ing the growth in length Of the lower
limbs, which soon lose their infantile
character and become adapted for rum
ming and walking. By exposing the
lower limbs to the same influences and
reslstances during their entire growth
we manage to maintain them OF the
same length, and gentle Jars upon the
epiphyses at the joints may be consid-
cred favorable to growth.-New York
