In the presentation of the results of their work, the Massachusetts 

 and New York Stations have followed a classitication of feeding- 

 stuffs based upon their composition. The modified form adopted in 

 New York is as follows: 



Class I. Thirty to 45 per cent, protein and 50 to GO per cent, car- 

 bohydrates, including cotton-seed meal, linseed meal and the gluten 

 meals, such as the Chicago, King, Cream and the Hammond. 



Class II. Twenty to 30 per cent, protein and 60 to 70 per cent, of 

 carbohydrates, including gluten feeds, such as the Buffalo, Golden. 

 Diamond, Davenport, Climax and Standard, as now made. Atlas meal, 

 dried brewers' grains, malt sprouts, buckwheat middlings and peas 

 and beans. 



Class III. Fourteen to 20 per cent, of protein and 70 to 75 per cent, 

 of carbohydrates, including brans and middlings from wheat and 

 rye, certain so-called mixed feeds of a proprietary character, these 

 being in part oat feeds fortified with some more highly nitrogenous 

 material.
