From what has already been given, we see that for the entire 
trial the amounts of dry matter consumed by the two lots were 
pretty nearly the same, with the gain in live weight in favor of 
Lot II. Lot I received more than 200 pounds of albuminoids 
during the entire period more than did Lot II, but in order to find 
the actual difference in feed, we must compare the rations for the 
several periods. | 
As already stated the object of the feeding trial was to deter- 
mine the relative influence for growth and fattening of different 
rations, the one being constantly more nitrogenous than the other. 
_ For the purpose of tracing the influence of these rations, we may 
_ break up the first portion of our trial (up to the digestion experi- 
ment) into periods of ten days each. The following table gives 
the average daily food and water consumed, beginning with 
November eleventh :
