CORN, OATS, WHEAT FOR FEED
Interesting Experiment at Wisconsin
Experiment Station With Three
Lots OF Heifers.

In an experiment at the Wisconsin
experiment station three lots of heif-
ers weighing about $50 pounds were
fed equal amounts of nutrients. For
one lot the nutrients were wholly from
the wheat plant, another from oats
and the third from corn. All lots grew
at about normal rate, but after few
months it became easily observable
that the wheat lot was not so well
nourished as the others. This was evil
dent from the appearance of the coat.
The corn and oat-fed lots bred earlier
than the wheat fed one, showing that
the latter were depressed in some de-
gree. The corn-fed lot produced calves
which were Of normal size and full OF
vigor. The oat-fed lot produced calves,
which were OF about normal size but
with very low vigor, while those from
the wheat lot were about half as large
as the normal calf at birth and were
dead or ready to die when born. When
half of the roughage of the wheat lot
was replaced with alfalfa hay the
calves were normal.
No reasons have yet been worked
out as to why these foods should act
so differently but it is important to
know how they affect animals.

horses and mules, saddle mares, draft
and saddle foals, two-year-old fillies
end three-year-old geldings divided
into pairs. Each animal received the
same grain ration consisting of corn
two parts, oats two parts, bran one
part. One of the animals in each pair
of the growing and idle horses re-
ceived alfalfa hay as it's roughage, part
of which was fed at night and part in
the morning. The other animal in
each pair received alfalfa hay in the
morning and corn silage at night. The
draft animals at work were fed the
same except that timothy hay was
used instead of alfalfa. Some diff
Guilty was experienced in getting the
animals that had been on dry feed
previous to the test to eat the silagc.
With two exceptions the animals re-
ceiving silage were in more thrifty
condition at the end Of the trial. The
silage-fed mule was kept in better
condition as shown by the hair, skin
and general appearance, and yet cost
less to feed than mule which re-
ceived no silage.

More Valuable Is the MiIk-Feed
Mixed With Grain.

Skim milk that is not from tubercu.

best way to feed it is three pounds OF
skim milk to one pound of grain. Fed
in this proportion skim milk has Sc
cured all the way from 81 to 40 cents
