In this period Lot I consumed eighty-nine pounds’ more of 
albuminoids than Lot II but Lot II received 215 more of nitrogen- 
free extract than Lot I, and made the less gain. 
Calculating the amount of the several parts digested for each lot 
and we have the following: -

Here, as in the total amounts consumed, the relation for the 
albuminoids and crude fiber fed to each lot holds about the same. 
For the entire period of 163 days feeding, the difference in the 
amount of dry matter consumed was very nearly the same for each 
lot, but of digestible albuminoids and nitrogen-free extract there 
was a marked difference.

- Lot I received 197 pounds more of digestible albuminoids than 
Lot IT and this would be equivalent to .6 of a pound per day more 
to each animal than for Lot II. On the other hand Lot IT con- 
sumed 396 pounds more of digestible nitrogen-free extract than 
Lot I. This would be about 1.2 pound per day more nitrogen-free 
extract consume by each animal in Lot I than by those of Lot IL. 
The amount of fat consumed per day was in favor of Lot I.
