this has been recognised and accepted
as a fact. Corn, Tor instance, is eon*
sidered a fattening food; cow-peiuna
~ milk-producing one. Bat experi
ments have been jpade to test thart
matters more In mKh and more defl
nitely, and tbe binTations for
purpoees have been fixed with a
of certainty snffleient for
purposes. Food may be regarded
as made up of three groups of sub-
nitrogenous compounds
(which for brevity may be called pro
tein), starch, gum and sugar com-
uuds (called hydro-carbons) and
ts. Now, for a cow weighing 1,000
pounds, experiments show that Us
daily rations should conlaiu 21 pounds
of protein. 121 pounds of hydro-car-
bons and fourteenths of a pound of fat
This does not mean that the food if
analyzed should contain the above
quantities of those substances, bnt that
those quantities must be present in
digestible form so tbe animal can
digest and appropriate them. The
amounts present and the amounts
digestible are qnite unequal especial
ly in long forage, as bay, fodder, straw,
etc. Thus of hay about 60 per cent,
of its protein is digestible; about the
same of its hydro-carbon, and from 20
to 40 per cent, of its fat. Of straw,
about 30 per cent, of its protein, 40
per cent, of its hydro-carbon and 30
per cent, of Its fat is digestible. Of
corn (grain), nearly 80 per cent, of Its
protein, 90 per cent of its hydro-car-
bou and 60 per cent, of Us fat is digest
ible. Of oats (grain), 87 per cent, of
Us protein, 77 of Its hydro-carbon and
78 per cent of Us fat is digestible. In
making up a ration, therefore, atten
tion must be had, not only to the
composition ot stna (as shown by an
alysis), but also to Us digestibility
