Wheat ~ a Hog Food.
Results obtained at the Wisconsin
experiment station show that there is
practically no difference in the quanti-
ty of pork produced from the same
weight of wheat or corn. In four trials
an average of 499 pounds of ground
wheat were required to produce 100
pounds of gain in live weight. In two
trials with corn meal 49s pounds were
required to produce 100 pounds of gain.
When a mixture of equal parts Of
wheat and corn was fed, better results
were obtained than when either wheat
or corn was fed alone. 1t required 4s5
pounds of mixed wheat and corn, half
and half, by weight, to produce 1oo
pounds of gain in live weight.
