COMPARATIVE VALUES OF COTTONSEED MEALS. 



Twenty-three samples of cottonseed meals were analyzed. 

 A comparison of the analysis and selling prices show that 

 the higher the analysis the cheaper the cost of protein is per

 analyzed under each percentage, the price per 100 pounds

TABLE NUMBER 5 

 COTTONSEED MEALS 



One dollar would buy 14 pounds of protein in the 36 per 

 cent, cottonseed meals and 16.4 pounds in the 43 per cent, 

 cottonseed meals. Or in other words one dollar would buy 

 over seventeen per cent, more protein in the ^3 per cent, 

 cottonseed meals than in the 86 per cent, meals. The 

 average price per ton of the higher analysis meals is higher 

 but the cost per pound of protein is less. Determine the 

 comparative value of the feeds offered for sale before pur-
