LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL 



Hon. W. a. Geaham, 



Commissioner of Agriculture ,' * 



Raleigh, N. C. 



Sir: — I submit herewith manuscript for a bulletin on Corn Silage 

 and Cotton-seed Hulls for Fattening Beef Cattle. This important ex- 

 periment was made on the Iredell Test Farm during the winter of 1913- 

 1914, and should be considered a report of the progress of the Avork, as 

 plans are made for continuing these and similar experiments on the 

 Iredell Test Farm until the prominent questions relating to the fatten- 

 ing of beef cattle during the winter months have been thoroughly and 

 carefully studied. 



I recommend the publication of this report as the August Bulletin. 



Very respectfully, 



Dan T. Gray, 



Chief in Animal Industry. 

 Approved for printing : 



"W. A. Graham, 



Commissioner of Agriculture.
