close of this and the beginning of the following week of 

 the feeding period: 



Water. 

 87.75 



Protein. 

 4.6125 



Carbohydrate. 

 16.65 



To get these quantities, take the total amount of nutri- 

 ents fed at the beginning of the week and add enough 

 feeds so that the nutrients of the feeds will bring the total 

 amount up to the quantity stated above, which is required 

 at the end of the week. Proceed the same as above, 

 namely, add the roughage first, the carbonaceous concen- 

 trates next, then the nitrogenous concentrates, and lastly 

 the water. By so doing the following will be obtained :

These quantities of nutrients correspond very closely 

 to those above that were calculated as the requirement of 

 nutrients at this time. 



The above mentioned quantities of feed that were used 

 to get the additional nutrients should be added to those 

 fed at the beginning of the week, and the totals are the 

 quantities to be fed at the close of the week. By adding 

 these the following are obtained. 



Alfalfa 31b. 



Corn 12.0 lb. 



Barley 6.0 lb. 



Skimmilk 40.0 lb. 



Soy beans 5.2 lb. 



Water . 43.0 lb.
