Chemical Analysis of Different Portions (Per Cent). 



1 Sample too small for analysis. 



The results obtained indicate that products sold as wheat mixed feeds vary to a 

 greater extent than can be readily accounted for through different methods of milling 

 or the quality of the wheat milled. On the other hand, different samples of the same 

 brand appear to be quite uniform. It is believed that many brands are blends made 

 by the manufacturers and are not mill run; in fact, some of these blends undoubtedly 

 contain more digestible nutrients than straight mill run products. Mill run mixed 

 feed will probably contain about 60 per cent wheat bran, 25 per cent standard and 15 

 per cent flour middlings, although considerable latitude should be allowed in making 

 standards for the product. 



Any definition for wheat mixed feed should not only include a statement as to 

 what it is, but also state the percentage of bran and middlings of both grades that it 

 may contain.
