Green FORAGE for Hogs.

An especially timely bulletin
has just been issued from the
Missouri Experiment Station by
Dean H. ]. Waters giving the re-
suits af some experimental de-
termine the value Of different for
age crops for hogs.
Thirtysix pigs weighing about
30 lbs. each were fed in lots on
different forage crops in connec-
ton with corn until they were
ready for market, accurate &C.
count being kept Of the cost Of
gains made.
In chsapness Of gains the feeds
used ranked as follows: Corn and
skim milk; cheapest; corn and
alfalfa, second; corn and red
clover, third; corn and blue
grass, fourth; corn and rape,
fifth; corn and ship stuff, sixth.
A saving Of about rs cents q
hundred in the cost gain was
effected by using green clover
instead Of fresh bluegrass. A
saving of S1.00 a hundred was
effected by using alfalfa instead
Of bluegrass.
When lis realized that alfalfa
comes on early and when prop.
erly clipped stays green all sum-
mer and until the very hard
freezes Of early winter, its inn
portanoe as a hog pasture is ap-
parent. Clover yields more
forage per acre than bluegrass,
and as shown by these expert
ments has a much higher, feed
ing value. 1t is of the utmost
Importance therefor to provide
this sort Of pasture for hogs rath-
or than to require them to run
on a bluegrass pasture, or even
worse than bluegrass, a timothy
pasture, OF even worse than this
to confine them in dry lot in
the summer time.
This bulletin recommends q
succession of crops for profitable
hog pasture. The bulletin is for
free distribution, and may be had
by addressing the Experiment
Station at Columbia.
