Of the feeds enumerated in the preceding table as containing low-grade products, 

 Buffalo Creamery Feed, Paragon Dairy Feed, Uncle John's "20" Cow Feed, Big Q 

 Dairy Ration and Golden Grist Dairy Ration contained oat hulls present in the oat 

 feed which formed part of the admixture. 



Vigor Dairy Feed and Domino Creamery Feed contained grain screenings. Grain 

 screenings may vary greatly in their nutritive value and palatability, depending upon 

 the amount of waste grain they contain. 



Eshelman's 16J Dairy Feed contained both oat hulls and grain screenings; Seavey's 

 "24" Dairy Ration, cocoa shell meal; and the Quarto Dairy Feed, velvet bean pods. 



It is believed that dairy feeds to which have been added products of high fiber 

 content and low digestibility, such as oat hulls, or material of doubtful feeding value, 

 such as grain screenings, should be bought, if at all, at a somewhat low^er price than 

 prepared feeds which contain nothing but high-grade products. 



Molasses Feeds. 



There appear to be two fairly well-defined types of molasses feeds. One contains 

 15 or more per cent of protein, consists of one or more inferior products mixed with 

 molasses and other feeding stuffs, and is usually sold as dairy feeds; the second group 

 contains less than 15 per cent of protein, and for the greater part consists of whole or 

 coarsely ground grains, alfalfa meal and molasses.
