PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Preparation of Food for Animals, Game, and Poultry.
I EDWARD WYLAM of Henry, Street Tooley Street Southwark in the County of
Surrey Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
:-
My invention relates to a new compound food for dogs or other animals, game
and poultry. It consists essentially in the combination with the ingredients ordinarily
used in making food such as the biscuits known as Spratt's dog biscuits or with the
principal of them (such as the meat and flour or the meat flour and beetroot) of the
nuts, the product of the Arachis Hypogea L. (Nat. ord. Leguminosa). These
nuts are shelled and if necessary dried or partially dried, and then they are incorpo-
rated with the animal matter and flour and such other ingredients as may be
selected; for instance the ingredients as described in the Specification of Letters
Patent No. 4412 granted to me and dated the 11th day of October 1881. All the
ingredients are well mixed with water into a dough and the compound is baked.
Whilst not limiting myself to particular proportions I find that good results are
obtained if I use one part by weight of the said nuts when shelled to every sixteen
parts by weight of the other ingredients as a whole.
Dated this 12th day of September 1890.
