reduced one-ha1f by this method and
the feed per 100 lbs. of gain is also
less, while the daily gains are more
rapid. Care was exercised in getting
the pigs accustomed to full feed and
no difficulty was experienced from
this manner of feeding.
AS to the value of soaking the feed,
this test, while in no sense conclusive,
showed slight advantage in soaking
the rations for IL hours before feed

Heavy Eating Pigs.

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
vallis.-A tremendous field for devel-
oping pigs with the definite purpose
of making them capable of consuming
a greater amount of feed and showing
CORRESPONDENCE greater gains, has
been opened up as result of feeding
tests conducted by Professor G. R.
Samson at the Oregon Agricultural
college. On September / thirty pigs
of different filters we're divided into
three lots Of ten each and all were
fed barley ninety per cent and tank
age ten per cent for 81 days. Lot !
was fed dry rations by hand. Lot 2
was fed by self-feeder, and lot was
fed by hand rations soaked for IL
hours before feeding The three lots
were divided evenly as to weight, sex
and parentage. The litter were also
evenly divided among the lots as near
ly as possible.
Lot / required 1885 lbs. of feed per
100 lbs. gain. Lot required 41S.2
lbs. of feed per 100 lbs. gain, and lot
8 required 449.8 lbs. of. feed per 100
lbs. gain. The difference in daily gain
between the litters of pigs was from
ZAP lbs. to 1.86 lbs. The difference
between the lots varies only from l.48
lbs. to 1.84 lbs. The poorest lot was
