raw sugar was administered to the same cows,at first 1 kilo for some 
days, afterwards 1.5 kilo each cow, per diem. 
For this experiment the same sugar was used, which served for the 
preceding experiment. 
Before commencing the feeding with molasses, the fat of the milk 
taken on 17, 20 and 23 Dec. from the 3 cows was examined. 
In Table V are stated the molasses- and sugar-rations, the R.M.W.- 
numbers of the milkfat and the ©, of fat in the milk.

In Table VI are given the average R.M.W.-numbers of the milkfat 
and the average °/, of fat in the milk for the different periods. 4) 
From the above-mentioned figures it appears, that in the period 
of feeding with molasses (from 3—13 Jan.), the average R.M.W.- 
number had risen 2.45 with N°. 1, and 0.85 with NO. 3. The 
R.M.W.-number of the controlling-cow remained pretty constant, it 
rose from 26.8 to 26.9. 
1) The particulars of the cattle have already been stated in Table II.
