Again, ltnppnars to l e advisable to use ground feed for all kluds'of stock, ns the strength frim ground grain is iken up much quicker and turned into the various tiepues tr.nn when fed whol, as too much vital energy fu lost in tlie process of digestion to warrant the feeding of whole grain. In preparing your feed it is not a wie plan to grind too much atone me, as the ground feed haH a tendenuy to'mut if prepered iu largp qimutitits and the feeding of muity or moldy feed should be avoided. 'A We do no believe any oncwho Ik the owner of a hor.se or. -a cow,' or any number thereof will question the ad- ajitiige.wuiciv gmuureeil nits over whole grain as feed for old auipnls. From an agricultural department pamphlet we take tbe following state ment relative to ground feed for horses: "Tbe horse must be fed three or four times a day. BuJkv food must he given to detain the grains in the passage through tbe intestinal tract. Bulk also favors distention, and this mechanically aids absorption. Cut bay fed with crushed oats, ground corn, etc.. makes tlie best feeding as It givs " the nanlrtd tinik and buvt-s time and lahnr. Uv or wi.Pnt Rl.n ild t.hvpr hr ! given whole.
