lbs. of fat daily for the entire year. Her concentrate allowance, con- 

 sisting of equal parts of oats, bran, and gluten feed together with 2 

 or 3 lbs. of oil meal, began with 12 lbs. daily, which was gradually 

 increased to 22 lbs., the maximum except that for one week she was 

 fed 24 lbs. daily. During the first 65 days the roughage consisted of 

 30 lbs. corn silage, 35 lbs. roots, and clover hay without limit. After 

 this, 10 lbs. of silage was fed in place of the roots. While on pasture 

 she was fed 12.5 to 15 lbs. of grain daily with clover hay and corn 

 silage, of which she ate very little. During a 7-day test she pro- 

 duced an average of 4.03 lbs! of fat daily, requiring for each lb. of 

 fat 10.6 lbs. of dry matter, of which 1.4 lbs. was digestible crude pro- 

 tein.
