METHODS OF FEEDING Since the stomach of a horse is a comparatively small organ, the average size being only 3^2 gallons while that of a cow, of which there are four compartments, has a capacity of 55 to 60 gallons, it will readily be seen that the horse is poorly adapted to consuming relatively large quantities of coarse feeds. Due to the large amount of crude fiber in hay it requires considerable energy for its digestion and also a much longer time than grains, In feed- ing the horses used in
...these tests the practice was adopted of giv- ing the grain in approximately three equal feeds, fed morning, noon and night. The morning feed was given between 5 and 5 130, the noon feed at 12' and the evening feed at 6. As the horses be- gan work at 7 o'clock in the morning, this gave them a full hour and one-half in which to consume and digest their feed before starting to work. One hour was taken for the noon feed. The hay was divided into three feeds; fully half and sometimes a lit- tle more was given in the 'evening, about one-fourth in the morning and a little less than one-fourth at noon.
