Excerpt from Feeding Farm Work Horses and Mules The growing appreciation in the corn belt of the marked benefits to be derived from the use of legumes in crop rotations is resulting in a steady increase in the production of these crops. At the present time there is no more satisfactory means of disposing of them than as feed for the live stock on the farms on which the crops are grown. There has been considerable opposition to the use of corn and skepticism concerning its value for farm work animals. Much of this feeling may be attributed to difficulties resulting from improper feed ing and much to the unsuitable character of the corn which was used. Legume hays, too, have not been very generally used as feeds for horses and mules because they have been thought to cause digestive disorders and to reduce strength and endurance.
