To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A few years ago it was frequently the custom to value feeding-stuffs by the amount of protein they contained. Timothy, being low in nitrogenous con- stituents, was said to have little nutrition in it. It should be remembered, however, that an idle animal needs very little protein, while an animal at work usually gets the bulk of its protein from grain. Ex- perience has abundantly shown that timothy hay alone is an excellent ration for an idle horse, or even a horse with moderate exercise. These... facts seem to justify the important place that this grass occupies in Ameri- can agriculture. There are circumstances under which other grasses deserve much more attention than they thus far have received 'in this country, as indicated elsewhere in these pages. 78 FARM GRASSES OF THE UNITED STATES The outstanding importance of timothy is due largely to the fact that, except in the alfalfa regions of the West, nearly all our hay is produced in the region to which timothy is best adapted.
