Excerpt from The Canadian Veterinary Record, Vol. 3: June, 1922

As far as is known the feeding of a fine ensilage or a fine hay free from mould has never produced the disease. One can say with safety that either coarse or mouldy sweet clover is dangerous as a food for cattle. The presence or absence of mould is something upon which the farmer is not a capable judge. Its detection is not always easy, and frequently the owner has stated that the hay was entirely free from mould when careful examination would reveal its presence. One must remember that sweet clover contains much nitrogen, and protein split products are sometimes highly toxic.
