Ten samples of rye feed were collected. With one 

 Rye Feeds exception they contained slightly less protein than 

 Page 18. wheat bran and retailed for about the same price. 

 Rye feeds will probably be found a satisfactory com- 

 ponent of the grain ration for hogs. 



Buckeye Feed is a mixture of wheat and rye 

 Wheat Feeds products. Its analysis would indicate that it 

 with Admixtures has about the same feeding value as wheat 

 Page 19. mixed feed. 



Holstein Feed, Sterling Feed and Blue Grass Feed are admix- 

 tures of wheat products, corn and ground corn cobs. On account 

 of their high fiber content, due to the addition of ground corn cobs, 

 they cannot be considered economical substitutes for wheat bran 

 or wheat mixed feed.

satisfactory a ration out of the straight by-products at a saving 



in cost. Those mixtures containing no low-grade by-products 



are to be preferred. The samples collected were practically as 



represented. 



In many of the feeds in this group molasses

feeding stuffs of good quality. The mechani- 

 cal condition, odor and certified ingredients should be considered 

 as well as the chemical composition in purchasing such feeds. Their 

 chief value is as a substitute for wheat bran or other bulky feed- 

 ing stuffs in the grain ration, providing they can be purchased at 

 a price which will warrant their use.
