APPENDIX 



Table I. Average Composition of American Feeding Stuffs 



The following averages, showing the composition of the most important 

 American feeding stuffs, are taken from the much more extensive table in the 

 unabridged edition of Feeds and Feeding. Tliis table and Appendix Tables II 

 and III are based upon an exhaustive compilation, made by the authors, of the 

 analyses and digestion coefficients reported by the State Experiment Stations 

 and the United States Department of Agriculture. The completeness and ac- 

 curacy of the data here presented is evident from the fact that merely the 

 preparation of the unabridged tables required the time of trained assistants 

 equivalent to one person working steadily for three years, in addition to the 

 supervision of the authors. The student desiring to know the composition and 

 digestibility of feeding stufl's not given in these tables is referred to the ex- 

 haustive tables in the unabridged Feeds and Feeding.
