barley will materially gain and the profit

but to soak Better results obtained with ground barley
with rolled barley the latter being bulky hogs Tankage
valuable adjunct grain for dry lot feeding
than when hogs being and aened pasture especially
If the pasture be composed of legumes.

Ito mix it in bulk For aenng shoas tankage with barley

barley will give better results than proportion
ankag ankage has been the efficient feed used
supplement to wheat barley and prevailing
market conditions for the past five years
Sammk alone will produce unsatisfactory results feed
ing pigs and five pounds of skimmk per pound
OF also likely poor products
rank high efficient supplements grain containing ninety
cent quite bulky drawback but where it
can be obtained is most efficient protein supple
ment With the exception of whole milk kmmlk greatest
growing food.
The ratio of grain be used will depend upon the
relative price of the two feeds and age animals In
results than with older animals Trials large number of stations
have shown that with mature swine ration milk

and skmmk make the best combination may fed in the
ratio of to three five These produce large
gains and good quality of obtained skim
milk the most efficient supplement wheat barley
Buek and Wheyn composition these do not differ mater
ally from skimmk Extensive comparative feeding experiments
nave shown that butermk nearly of the feeding
value skimmk for feeding pigs Whey feeding
about onehalf that of skimmik buermlk is
pounds OF whey equals pound of feed feeding
Sour and sweet whey have approximately the feeding
but whey from separator milk worth only evenve eighty
cent much whey obtained the
Cheddar cheese.
Soy Bean Meal the ground residue obtained the

Corn meal and nseed meal-378 pounds, costing 1911.
Corn meal and soy bean meal360 pounds costing
