144 AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION. [Jan. 



the sum of the money values of fat and non-nitrogenous 

 extract matter and cellulose present, and the market price 

 of the particular fodder articles, is charged to the digestible 

 nitrogenous matter. The corn meal has been adopted as 

 the basis for the comparison, as far as value of non-nitrog- 

 enous matter is concerned. In presenting this table, it is 

 by no means assumed that the nitrogenous matter, as stated 

 below, is pound for pound of equal nutritive value ; it 

 merely aims to show what class of articles suggest themselves 

 for trials, when an increase of nitrogenous matter is the 

 main object for consideration in making up a class suitable 

 for the occasion.
