In conversation with W. E. Martin
recently we were given his experience
in feeding hogs last winter. Having
read that beets were only worth 81 so
per ton as feed, Mr.. Martin, who had
paid "a per ton for his supply. supposed
that he would lose big money, but de.
cided to make test by frequent weigh
ing OF his hogs. He found that in max.
ing 60 pounds of pork with sugar beets
at "a per ton the cost was sl3O, while on
corn ration it cost s2.55 to make the
same amount. Beets fed in connection
with grain make the most economical
meat producer, is his belief.
