PUBLIC DOCUMENT — No. 33.

The article was of a good mechanical condition, and its 

 composition notable on account of the exceptional high per- 

 centage of fat. The statement concerning its digestibility is 

 based on that of corn, as no actual trials in that direction 

 are known to us. 



MIDDLINGS.

The article is rich in valuable constituents for feeding pur- 

 poses, and compares favorably with those of its kind. It 

 seems quite safe to assume the rates of digestibility noticed 

 in wheat bran, fed to cattle, which have been repeatedly 

 stated in the bulletins. (See No. 11, page 5.)
