est profit from the food consumed?
Will it pay to feed pigs from birth to
time Of slaughter, or is it better to al
low them to look out for themselves
for the first six months of their exist
ence?
Some preliminary tests, purely COM
mercial in their character, have been
carried on with pigs at the West Vir-
ginia Agricultural Experiment Station
During the test three lots of three
pigs each were brought under compar-
ison, the weight of each ration, as well
as its composition, has been recorded.
Some idea Of the Importance Of feeding
is shown by this statement: Lot one,
the three pigs fed from birth on nitro
genous rations, gained in ISL days, 424
pounds. Lot two, the three pigs fat
tened in tie usual manner, gained in
163 days, 253 pounds. The detailed re-
suits Of this work, when repeated, win
be published in bulletin form.
