106 Seem to grow well upon most any soil. 



107 A whitish clay, thin knob lands, that is, rough and slaty or close 



mulatto. 



What kinds of hay or feed, other than grasses, are used 

 during the ploughing season, and which do you consider 

 the best ? 



1 Mostly corn blades. Some feed oats. No better feed tor horses. 



2 Fodder and corn, with clover and timothy for a change. Hay and 



oats best fodder. 



3 Corn fodder, com, red-top and millet hay. 



4 Corn fodder, clover, herds grass and timothy. Corn fodder best. 



5 Corn fodder and timothy, or herds grass. Timothy and herds grass 



hay. 



6 Grain and hay. A change of oats, wheat-bran best with plenty of 



hay. 



7 Timothy hay. 



8 Corn fodder and oats, timothy and red-top hay. Hay and oats 



preferable. 



9 I consider well-cured fodder the best food for horses in warm 



weather. 



10 Oats and corn fodder. Clover hay is the best food for all purposes. 



11 Such hay as may be on hand. Nothing better than corn and clover 



hay. 

 ^12 Corn shucks and oat straw cut up and mixed with meal, is good. 

 Oats the best. 



13 All the different kinds of hay, corn and oatSi None better than 



clover and orchard grass mixed. 



14 Millet and other hay with fodder and oats. Red-top and timothy 



with fodder, best. 



15 Oats and fodder are both used, but oats are the best. 



16 Fodder. I prefer good clover and herds grass hay. 



> 17 Mixed feed. Cut oats, hay and millet with some corn. Food not 

 too much varied, best for health. 



18 Corn fodder, wheat straw. 



19 Corn, oats, blade fodder. Consider oats chopped, best. 



20 Corn fodder, oats, Hungarian and German millet. 



21 Corn blade fodder is principally used, and generally considered 



best. 



22 All ordinary kinds of hay, corn and oats. Oats and clover hay 



best.
