Apples as Stock Feed and Farm Advice From a Yankee Column
The piece reviews experiments by Payne Wingate on feeding pigs with cooked apples versus potatoes, noting apples can equal or exceed potatoes in weight gain. It discusses storage, sweetness versus sourness, feeding to other stock, and cautions about apples not drying milk. A neighbor tale extols feeding fields like hired men, plus Ohio wheat and barley yields for 1850 with farmer outputs and anecdotes.
