Alfalfa and Timithy Hay For Horses

In many sections of the coun-
try where alfalfa thrives well
there is still some prejudice
against that crop as food for
horses, there being considerable
effort made to grow such crops
as timothy and bronze grass even
where conditions are not favor
able for their production. The
Utah Experiment Station has
recently conducted some expert
ments, the purpose of which was
to determine whether this pre-
judice against alfalfa had any
foundation or not.
The first experiment lasted a
period of ninety-five days Begin
ing January 13, 1890, two teams
being used throughout the period
one horse in each team being fed
timothy and the other alfalfa, the
grain ration being the same.
During this time the two horses
fed timothy lost 124 pounds while
the horses fed alfalfa lost but 4
pounds. In the next experiment
the horses that had previously
received the alfalfa were fed
timothy, and those that had
previously received timothy were
now given alfalfa. In this in
stance the team receiving alfalfa
made a gain of seventy-fve
pounds during the ninety-fve
days of the experiment, while the
timothy fed horses lost sixty
pounds. During the next period
the alfalfa fed horses gained SIS
pounds, while the timothy fed
horses lost Al pounds. Three
other experiments were conducted
the results being practically the
same as those given above.
The results of these tests,
which were conducted while the
horses were doing the ordinary
work of the farm, are favorable
to alfalfa, it being less difficult
to maintain the weight of horses
fed on alfalfa than when fed hay

while no i'll effects were noted on
the general health, and the APP
pearance of the alfalfa fed horses
contrasted favorably with those
which received the timothy. 1t
was found that horses ted alfalfa
consumed larger quantity of
water daily, but there was no
evidence that this was in any
way detrimental.to their health.
