This corresponds with the results OBJ
tanned in similar investigation a year
ago and seems to indicate that the farm
ers need not be afraid that they are los
ing money every time the milk sours on
the way home from the creamery, and
creamery men need not go to any ex-
pense or trouble to so handle the skim
milk as to sterilize it and keep it sweet.
Two ounces of cOrnmeal to each quart
of skimmilk has yielded the pound of
pork at the least cost of food. A larger
amount of cOrnmeal has produced a
more rapid growth, but at an increased
cost for food for each pound of pork
above its market value.
During heavy feeding in preparation
for market, IL quarts of skimmilk daily
to each pig, with all the cornmeal that
would be eaten, produced a more rapid
growth and at less cost per pound than
six quarts of milk under similar condi-
tons.

months which tends to the development

vides a foundation on which greater
profit will be made when heavy feeding
begins in preparation for market. Amy
method of feeding which furnishes bulky
food tends to the larger growth of the
stomach and intestines, and a larger per
cent in shrinkage in dressing. Watery
food has the same influence.
The eight pigs in these tests increased
in live weight 1913 pounds, which sold
for $112.91, while the food they ate cost
$73.68, profit Of 1929. The grain they
ate cost Sail, which subtracted from
the amount for which they sold leaves
$68.70 as the amount realized for the 49,
gig pounds of skimmilk they ate, which
is equivalent to 80 cents per 100 pounds.
The fertilizing value of the food was
$500, or 81 per cent of its market value.
Owing to the high price of pork at the
time they were marketed, they could
have been proftably fed to a greater
weight than in our previous experiments,
but even at cents a pound, dressed
weight, they yielded no profit during the
last period after they weighed on the
average $50 pounds apiece, and at Or
