cording TO results obtained at the Iowa

In lot of gifts fed a ration of ear
corn plus one-tenth as much tankage
by weight, 90 per cent of the pigs We're
classed as strong at birth. The per-
centage of strong pigs with corn alone
was 6s. The percentage with other
rationS follows:
Shelled corn, chopped clover and
molasses. sc per cent strong; ear corn
plus clover in rack, "a per cent strong ;
ear corn plus alfalfa in rack, "a per
cent strong.
The cost of newborn pigs with ear
corn and clover was 81 cents, with ear
corn and alfalfa 80 cents, with ear
corn and tankage 10 cents, and with
ear corn only Al cents. These cost
figures were based on corn at 80 cents
