COMMERCIAL FEEDING STUFFS. 



SUGAR AND MOLASSES FEEDS. 



Only two samples of dried pulp were examined, neither* of which 

 shows adulteration. (Table 22.) The two samples labeled molasses 

 feed evidently consist of a mixture of molasses and brewers' grains. 

 Sample No. 1540 consists principally of a mixture of brewers' grains 

 and molasses, with a small amount of linseed meal. Sample No. 

 1728 consists of a mixture of brewers' grains and molasses only. 

 There is no feature of any of these analyses that would suggest adul- 

 teration. 



MISCELLANEOUS FEEDS. 



Under this heading are included a number of feeds which might, 

 from their name, contain any mixture of ingredients or which have 

 not been examined in large enough numbers to require a separate 

 heading. The composition and ingredients of most of these are so 

 plainly indicated by the chemical and microscopical examinations 

 that separate mention of particular samples does not seem necessary, 

 except in three cases. 



Jenkins and Winton a give the following average composition for 

 barley meal and screenings: 



21. Average percentage composition of barley meal and screenings. 

 [Compiled.] 



It is evident that the two samples of barley meal examined, Nos. 

 1539 and 1698 (Table 23), compare favorably with the compiled 

 results. Sample 1854, while having a high ash and fiber content, 

 also contains a considerable amount of protein.
