By increasing the lnbcr of fcczl» lng in the cutting of roughage and by mixing say cut hay. cut straw. and whatevei- meal is being fell. there is little doubt that u. cun- siderable saving of roughage may be secured.

Under normal (ceilings practice the all visabillty of cutting roughage is doubtful in that the cow is fitted by nature to do this ,,work ilerseii.
