Text from page 58: In general, this experiment shows that very slight effects on the composition of butter result from feeding cottonseed meal with a liberal ration of silage; and that larger changes in the fat constants are to be expected when the meal is fed with a dry roughage, like alfalfa and timothy hay. It is believed that silage has the power to reduce the influence of cottonseed meal on the composition of butter, but the experiment fails to show the extent of this counteracting effect.
