the above expenses and for all feeds
the net profit was approximately 50
cents per lamb. Using the lambs to

brought 5000 per ton.
The lambs were divided into two
lots with an equal number of lambs
in each lot. One lot was fed alfalfa
hay with grain ration of three parts
barley and one part oats, and the
other lot was fed alfalfa with ration
of three. parts wheatxand one part
oats. No losses resulted from the wheat
feeding. During feeding period of
100 days the wheat fed lambs gained
two and two-thirds more per head
than the barley lot, and Melted five
cents more per head net profit
These lambs were bought by the
Carstens Packing company OF Taco
ma, whose buyers pronounced them in
a splendid condition and the grain fin
ish secured by feeding Idaho small
grains entirely satisfactory for the
market.
The experiment clearly shows that
Idaho feeder lambs can be successful
ly and profitably fed within the state
on home grown grains. A bulletin
giving these facts in detail will be pre-
pared and ready for distribution early
in the summer from the Idaho expert.
