Af ter our State Fair last fall, our premi um grains were sent to the Agricul tural Department at Washington.

Sooner or later, however, the natural diminution depending on the duration of location occurs, and no increase can be produced by in creasing the food. Diminution of the above elements of the food causes a diminution in the milk yield. The addition of fat increases the ingredi ents of milk generally, and has no speel 1 influence on the amount of fat in the milk. The absolute production of the Individual elements of the milk agrees generally with the relative pro duction of the milk as a whole (most regularly in the cae of suirar). The variation from this are different for the different ingredients. In the percentage numbers, sugar iloes not seem to be affected by the diet. The variation, in the amount of albumen are so small as not to be eapa?1e of determination. No influ ence on the atnmtni of engine could be traced to the fod.

The farmer must therefore hope by variations in the food to produce a "butter cow' or a "cheese cow." The difference in this re-pcet are differences of stock and individuals. J". Jl. Dcp.
