Fargo. N. D. t'@+~ .~~@s
Cows and sheep az well as all ami
mails that chew the cud have four
stomachs. As these animals eat
grass or hay they chew it but little
and swallow it into the pounch or
first stomach, which is large in a
COW, having the capacity of a barrel.
When the animal has time it brings
the half chewed food from the paunch.
rechews it and this time it goes into
the third stomaph, called the many
piles. This is made up OF several
folds with rough surfaces and so ar
ranged that the food must pass back
and forth between them, thus grind
ing it still more. From here the food
goes to the fourth stomach, where the
real digestion takes place. It is this
provision for so thoroughly grinding
the food that makes it possible for cat
tie and sheep to live so largely on
roughage. The second stomach is
the water stomach. Sometimes called
the honey comb from its appearance
In the comb each of the cells are a.
