CONCLUSIONS. 



1. The average daily increase in live weight as compared with 

 tliat noticed in the two preceding experiments is not as satisfactory ; 

 lambs 4 and 5 fall not less than fifty per cent, behind when compared 

 with the gain obtained in case of the lambs 1, 3 and 6. 



2. The feeding effect of corn ensilage, when fed with the same 

 kind aud amount of grain feed, compares well with that of globe 

 mangold roots. 



3. The market cost of the daily fodder ration above stated, is in 

 the majority of cases lower than those used in our preceding experi- 

 ments with lambs; it varies from 1.65 cts. to 1.93 cts. in different 

 feeding periods. 



4. The manurial value obtainable from the different daily fodder 

 rations varies from 0.78 to 0.98 cents, it amounts to one-half of the 

 market cost of the daily diet.
