HOG FEEDING EXPERIMENTS.

In a recent hog-feeding expert
Mechanical College, Professor John
c. Burns found that black strap mo-
lasses, as a large part of the ration
in combination with corn, is not
profitable hog-feed, as the hogs fed
black strap molasses and corn in va
rying proportions did not gain as
many pounds or gain them as cheap
ly, as did the hogs that were fed
straight corn. Professor Burns also
verified in this experiment the fact
that an addition of skim-milk in va
rying proportions by weight to a corn
ration appreciably increases the rate
of gain in pounds and also cheapens
the cost of that gain. The hogs fed
skimmilk in addition to this corn
ration, not only gained more pounds
live weight at a lower cost per pound
of gain than those fed on equal
amount of corn without the addi-
ton of the skim-milk, but also look
ed better and more thrifty and sold
for several cents higher per hundred
weight on the Fort Worth market
The actual cash feeding value of the
skimmilk was found to be forty
cents per hundred younds when
hogs are worth S4.30 per hundred
cents per hundred pounds when hogs
are worth as much as five dollars per
hundred weight on the hoof.
