Abstract: A beach towel comprises a towel with a hollow, open-ended receptacle integrally attached to one end of the towel. A pillow is removably disposed within the receptacle. A carrying bag has first and second ends, one of which is closed, and one of which is attached to the pillow. The bag defines a hollow enclosure extending from the first end to the second end, with the hollow enclosure removably enclosing the towel, receptacle and pillow when the towel is rolled around the pillow and not in use. A drawstring, attached to either the first or second end, is provided for closing the bag.

Abstract: The present invention describes a method where, by using gentian violet as a tracer substance, the concentration of one or more selected components or factors of a complete animal feedstuff may be monitored throughout the life of the feed whether at the mill, in transit or at the place of its end use. In one embodiment, the method may be used to determine quickly whether any separation of components has occurred thereby destroying the homogeneity of the feedstuff and potentially endangering the animals to which the feedstuff is provided.
