Zfitt (fxpositor _

weekly newspaper means to him or her.
The written expression of frank opinion on

munites, and to set these thoughts down in
straightforward language. Polished literary ex-
pression is not sought. The judges_will be inter-
ested in simple, clear exposition that indicates an
awareness by the reader of the role of the week-
ly in the community.
Entries will, first be published in the member

judgment and understanding by readers of the •
function of the weekly. This could come from ,a
weekly of any size, large or small.
This is a unique award since it is offered not to
member papers, their staffs or regular contribu-
tors (they are specifically excluded), but to the

his or her own words just what the weekly news-
paper means to him or her

Agriculture
Has Own
Language
• Agriculture is like science.
It has a language all its own, and
terms used to define various
agricultural activities may
sometimes confuse those for
whom farming is not a way of
life.
Some commonly used feed
-terms which often appear in agri-
cultural- literature and news stor-
ies are provided by Garry Buck,
Livestock Branch, Ontario Dep-
artment of Agriculture and Food.
Total Digestible Nutrients -
(often abbreviated TDN) is the
term used, to indicate the energy
• value of feedstuffs. TDN is cal-
culated by adding together the
percentages found in the feed
of digestible carbohydrate, di-
gestible prOtein and (digestible
fat x 2.25).
Metabolized Energy - is best
described as the gross energy
(in the 'feed) that can be used
by an animal after fecal energy
(e.g. some , carbohydrates),
energy lost in urine (sugars),
and energy lost in the combust-
ible gases .(methane) are sub-
tracted from the overall energy '
content of the feed.
Ruminants--- are animals
which have ,a compound stomach,
with the first,compartment called'
the rumen. The rumen, contains
millions of mfcroo'rganisms that
break down .crude fiber for
digestion. Cows, sheep, and goats
are all ruminants.
Trace minerals - are mineral
elements such as iodine, cobalt
and zinc' that are required only
in very small, amounts in animal
rations. '"
Dry matter - is the feed left
after all water is removed from
it. Dry matter content is cal-
culated by subtracting the per-
centage of feed moisture con-
tent from 100.
Balanced ration - is the 24-
hour feed allowance containing
the right proportions of all nut-
rients needed for proper animal
nourishment.
