CLASSIFICATION OF CATTLE FEEDS. 



TABLE II. 



EXAMPLES OF COMPOSITION. 

 Figures = percentage or pounds per hundred. 



Below 12 per cent may be termed low protein, from 12 to 20 

 per cent medium protein, and above 20 high protein. If we notice 

 table two, we shall see that hay is low in protein, and this applies 

 equally well to all coarse fodders excepting the legumes and brans. 



*For the sake of comparison, the analysis of mangolds is reckoned to 15 per 

 cent of water. In their natural condition they contain 88 per cent. It would take 

 about seven tons mangolds with natural amount of water to equal one ton with 15 

 parts water. 



** In one ton mangolds with natural per cent water (88). 



tThese figures do not mean dollars and cents but simply express relative val ues.
