 SEED MEAL, AND GROUND MILO MAIZE 



A ^•ariety of feeds is considered advisable in a ration for animals. 

 Two lots of six steers each were fed in making this test. The steers 

 in Lot V were given 2.66 pounds of cottonseed meal, 5.70 pounds of 

 milo maize, and all the silage they would consume. In Lot VI the 

 steers were given the same amount of cottonseed meal, almost the 

 same quantity of ground milo maize, and allowed free choice of alfalfa 

 hay and silage. A summary of results -with Lots V and VI is given 

 in Table IX.
