FEEDING FARM ANIMALS 



It must be remembered that these standards were 

 made many years ago when scientific appliances 

 were less adequate than now, and when little was 

 known about either food or animals. The experi- 

 ments were also made with German feeds when 

 given to German animals, a circumstance that may 



tter broduced from

IT PAYS TO GIVE THE RIGHT FEED 



Two rations for dairy cows have been compared. From the one 8.9 pounds 

 of butter were produced from one dollar's worth of feed while from the 

 other but 5.28 pounds of butter was obtained from one dollar's worth of 

 feed. This shows how two rations may cost the same and one may be 

 worth a great deal more for final returns.
