hogs, because cotton seed meal acts
as poison TO hogs when they get too
much of 1t. Prof Mumford of the H.
linois college says he never knew of
case where hogs following steers
were poisoned by the meal which had
passed through the steer In feeding
cotton seed meal, great care should
be taken to see that the meal is fresh
and has never been heated The meal
should be bright yellow in color and
free from all appearance of being
mouldy.
Steers are easily overfed on cotton
seed meal and great care should be
exercised in not giving them too much
of it. Start them on a pound or a
pound and half per day and increase
up to two or three pounds per day
To supply succulence, and also to
cheaper the cost of grains, corn silage
is of great value in the ration 1t
should be remembered that corn sill
age is not high in protein and should
not form all the roughage material
even when fed full grain ration Of
corn. Good results come from alfalfa
or clover hay and silage as roughages
and limited allowance of cotton seed
meal fed with the corn rations as con-
centrates. This form of ration
offers variety, palatiblity, succulence
and economy of nutrients for the in
tended purpose.

graduated pipette. This is filled up to
the 176 &C. mark by drawing the
milk up into the pipette by suction
One finger is held over the end of the
pfpette to hold the milk in 1t until 1t
is ready to transfer to the test bottle
Figure ] shows the test bottle on the
left hand and the pipette on the right
The milk is released by removing the
finger from the upper end of the
pipette and you have the exact amount
of milk YOU should use.
Next, 1t is necessary to add IT'S
&C. sulphuric acid. This is measured
in graduated glass and poured into
the test bottle. The test bottle must
be held in slanting position to avoid
spilling the acid onto the hands. The
sulphuric acid is heavier than the
milk and settles to the bottom at
once. 1t must then be thoroughly
mixed by shaking being careful not
to splash 1t into the neck The milk
when thoroughly mixed is of a brown
color. Thorough mixing is absolutely
necessary to give the correct test.
The bottle is then put into the tester
and whirled according to directions on
the machine.

balanced ration is one that pro
yides nutrition, without waste or
shortage of any of the nutrients, to
an animal fed for a specific purpose.
The ideal ration for beef cattle is
made up of corn and leguminous
roughages, either alfalfa or medium
red clover hay. Cattle eat a great
deal of roughage when getting on full
feed. When on full feed, they do not
eat much roughage The leguminous
hays are high in protein and corn is
high In nonprotein material.
When cattle are on full feed it is
necessary to supplement the corn
with some concentrated feed contain
Ing liberal supply of protein to bal
ance the non-protein material in the
corn. The most economical one that
has been found is cotton seed meal,
or the cotton seed with the oil
squeezed out of it. Some feeders pre-
fer the nut form of this feed because
the fine meal blows away and is
wasted when 1t is fed out of doors.
Cases of sore eyes in steers have been
attributed to the fine meal getting
into the eyes of cattle fed upon 1t.
There is danger of the hogs following
the cattle getting some of the meal
before 1t has passed through the di-
gestive tract of the steer. In this
event serious trouble may come to the
