This article is new in our market. German experiment 

 station reports speak of two kinds of dry distillery feed, 

 one obtained in connection with the manufacture of alcohol 

 from rye and one from maize ; the former contains consider- 

 able less crude protein (from twenty-two to thirty per 

 cent.) than the latter (from thirty to thirty-four per cent.). 



[I., Buffalo gluten feed, from station barn ; II., golden gluten, sent on from Boston,
