HATCH EXPERIMENT STATION. 



[Jan. 



The analyses of the so-called improved Chicago meal 

 show it to contain a higher per cent, of protein than the 

 old-process meal contained. The manufacturers claim that 

 this is due to a more complete removal of the starch. Both 

 the white or light and yellow meal have practically the same 

 composition, and are consequently equally valuable for feed- 

 ing. 



((?) Brans and Rice Meal. 



The above brans are all much inferior to the average wheat 

 bran. The rice meal is a good average sample of its kind, 

 and possesses a feeding value similar to corn meal. Experi- 

 ments are now in progress with this meal.
