H Wo havo seen horses fed corn and H timothy hay year In nnd year out, in U working tlmo and resting tlmo, and H know that this Is tho practice on M many of our American farms. Many U a farmer hits reduced his system of H grain feeding to so many cars of corn M per horse per day. Not only is such M a ration out of balauco, but It must M liccrimo very monotonous to tho nnl- M mats that havo to taku it or nothing.

Wo aro equally unablo to toll why ono H or two kinds of feed fed to a human H being becomo objcctlonnblo to him' M after n tlmo. Doubtless thoro is somo great law underlying tho tasto pref- " erencc. Careful feeders beliovo thoy M can seo far better results from feed- lng. a variety of feeds than ono, and H this sarao idea Is strengthened by tho oxporitVco of our collcgo men in tholr scientific experiments rotating to tho' feeding of animals.
