In s - hogs, cattle and even horses. former years, when the rust evil was much less than it is now a considerable quantity of rusted grain has been fed to The results have often seemed satisfactory, and no ill effects traceable to it have been neticed. But Dr. Leunis van Es of the veterin- ary department at the Agricultural college, strongly urges caution in feeding rusted wheat. He emphasizes the need for caution in such a season as the present, when rust is so bad and so wide- - 8pread. ... Answering .a. number of. ques- tions for readers of the Nonpartisan test feeding ought to be of heavily infected straw.” After that when feeding it to the entire herd, he suggests shaking the straw in a windy place to blow out as much of the irritating dust as possible; avoiding a sudden change from other _ forms of feed; using rusted straw only " in conjunction with other feeds if pos- sible; and last, watch the stock closely - all the time and discontinue the feeding of it if illness occurs which can not be traced to other causes. Dr. van Es said its ill effects are more pronounced with horses and cattle, than with hogs, and cautioned against its use with foal mares especially, although he said it- might even be fed to foal mares: moderately without fatal results. As aid in detecting danger, he has prepared a brief statement on _the use of rusted grain, from which the follow- 'EQUITABLE AUDIT CO.,Inc.

Farmers having much of this kind of feed on hand, would do well to give it to one or more animals of small value first and . watch its effects.. By no means should they put it before their best animals until they have proved what it will do.
