Many of the materials mentioned above when compared with 
the grains from which they are derived show a depletion of sugars 
and starch and a corresponding relative increase in the, nitrogen- 
free extract of the less valuable compounds. This is especially 
true of the wheat offals, the gluten feeds and the oat feed mixtures. 
In the case of the one sample of gluten meal examined the starch 
still constituted a large proportion of the nitrogen-free extract. 
The chop feeds and other similar combinations contain as a rule 
quite a proportion of corn, that furnishes nearly all the starch which 
is found in these mixtures. Such materials as the X Oat Feed and
