Per cent. Feeding horses The health of horses under this feeding appears to be excel- with blood lent and the digestive energy is in no way impaired. Certain molasses, authorities declare that for horses the product should be given gradually, in order that the animals may become accustomed to it little by little. It is impossible to feed protein to excess and decrease the fatty substances. It is, furthermore, impossible to substitute more than one-half of the oats ration by this feed. In many cases 2 kilos are given per diem, and the oats ration is reduced from 6 kilos to 3 kilos. By this arrangement good results are obtained, and after a year's feeding the health of the animals is all that can be desired". A saving in money always follows its use.

Experience seems to show that it is possible in the case of milch cows to substitute for certain oil meals this molasses-blood forage combination. feeding cows. Lienthal has obtained very favorable results in feeding cows. He estimates that the profits from this feeding may be put down at 40 pfennigs [10 cents] per head and per diem.
