"A horse weighing 1,000 lbs.
will do more and keep in better
health on 15 lbs. of hay per day
than he will on 20 lbs. per day.
In fact. 15 lbs. of hay per day is
sufficient bulky food for a horse
of that size. A horse weighing
1,500 lbs. to 1,800 lbs. does not
need more than 20 lbs. of hay per
day. The balance of his nutrients
k- shonld be in the form of grain.
"Feed the 1,000 lbs. horse 10
lbs, of good hay at night and 5
lbs. in the morning and he will
perform more labor with greater
ease than he would if kept before
him all the while.
,'The purpose of the experi
ment is to cause horse owners to
observe more closely the advan
tages of feeding less hay. If two
or more teams are maintained
upon the farm, feed one team as
suggested and the other the usual
way and note carefully the result

physical injury to the horse, the Leghorn. The Plymouth Rock
laid 27 eggs in the month of
October. The cross did not run
so high in individual months but
she was more consistent, laying
over 20 eggs every month except
March.'
"This is a matter of breeding,
feeding and care," said Prof
James Dry den, poultry expert
for the experiment station to
night. "In the same pen with
the record Plymouth Rock hen
we had one which laid but 6 eggs
although she was of the same
breed, and received the same
care and feed. The trouble was
in heredity. She was a poor in
dividual. When we have finish
ed figuring up the records of all
the hens in this test we will have
some very interesting Pata for
publication in a new bulletin of
the experiment station,"
