Samples taken September 18, 1894. No. 1366 was from a plot to which there 
were applied dissolved bone-black at the rate of 320 pounds peracre and muriate 
of potash at the rate of 160 pounds. No. 1367 was grown ona plot to which 
mixed minerals were applied as in 1366 and had in addition 160 pounds of 
nitrate of soda per acre. No. 1368 was grown on a plot to which mixed minerals 
were applied as in 1366 and had in addition 480 pounds of nitrate of soda per acre. 
1341-1343, Scarlet Clover ( Trifolium incarnatum), used in digestion expeti- 
ments.* Samples were taken May 26th to June 2d. 
ENSILAGE, 
1262, Corn Enstlage.—Samples were taken in connection with milch cow 
ration No. 18. 
CURED FODDERS AND HAYS. 
1274, Hodder.—The fodder consisted of about 500 pounds of oat straw and 
75 pounds bog hay, mixed as it was run through the cutter. Sample was taken 
of each separately and combined in the above proportions at the laboratory. 
Taken in connection with milch cow ration No. 20. 
1269, 1279 and 1289, Corn Stover.—Samples taken in connection with milch 
cow rations Nos. Ig, 22 and 24 respectively.

cow ration No. 26. 
1325-1328, Early Cut Hay. Mixed grasses.—Sample taken in connection 
with digestion experiments Nos. 1 to 4. (See article beyond on digestion 
experiments).

1290 were timothy and red-top hay, about three-fourths timothy and one-fourth
