TILLS you how to pre

Gives the right for-^

Tells the percentage
of protein and carbohy

of each mixture to feed for main
tenance, for milk production, for fattening and for work.
This book also contains an interesting chapter on
UNTLtM
Shows why these delinted hulls have greater forage value
than the old style hulls, why they allow better assimila
tion of food, why they go farther, why they take less
space for storage, why they are easy to handle, why they
mix well with other food, why cattle relish them, why
they cost much less than old style hulls and why thou
sands of feeders are enthusiastic about them. The mixed
feed formulas show how to combine Buckeye Hulls
properly with concentrates and other feeds.
Mr. W. B. Lifford, Troy, Ala.,
prefers Buckeye Hulls to old style hulls. He says
that they are less trouble to feed, are better for the
digestive organs and seem to agree with the cows
better.
To secure the belt result* and te develop the ensilage odor, wet the halls
thoroughly twelve hoars before feeding. It is easy to do this by
wetting them down night and morning for the next feeding. It at any time
this cannot be done, wet down at least thirty minutes, if you prefer to
feed the hulls dry, use only half as much by bulk as of old style hulls.
