pure wheat pi-oducts and nineteen (19) were mixtures of wheat and corn 

 products. 



Close inspection of the above table will reveal the merits of the diffei'ent 

 shipstuffs. 



Oat Feed, Vim Oat Feed, Victor Corn and Oat Feed, Model Corn and Oat 

 Feed, Quaker Dairy Feed, and others. The bulk of all these materials is 

 ground oat hulls with admixture of ground corn and oat kernels. The feed- 

 ing value of them is variable and they should never be bought except on a 

 guaranteed composition, and then it should be remembered that the oat hulls 

 are not as digestible as the kernel of oats or other grains. 



The price paid for these feeds is, as a rule, far in excess of their feeding 

 value when compared with wheat bran, middlings and cotton-seed meal.
