PART IV 
AVERAGE WEIGHTS OF FEEDING STUFFS 
As a rule under average farm conditions, it is not practi- 
cable to weigh each mess of food, nor is it necessary, as meas- 
uring is sufficiently accurate. The food from the measure 
should be weighed a few times at the beginning. To aid 
in approximating the weight of the various foods, the follow- 
ing table of weights and measures is quoted from Farmers’ 
Bulletin No. 222: —
