596 EXPERIMENTAL F Alt AM 



4 GEORGE V., A. 1914 



Deductions. — No deductions can be drawn from a single year's experiment, and 

 as this work is to be repeated during the coming year it would be unwise to lay too 

 much stress on the above. There are, however, a few points which would demand 

 interest, namely : — 



1. As might be expected, clover hay surpasses timothy hay in economy of gains 

 produced. 



2. As a rule roots add to the economy of production. This applied particularly 

 to the timothy hay ration, but future experiments will give more conclusive evidence 

 on this point. 



3. Good profits, over and above the market value of food stuffs, may be made by 

 winter feeding lambs in Nova Scotia.
