WHEATLESS RATIONS

Efficient Combinations for Max.
 ing Rapid Gains.
Commercial Feeders VIII Find Tests Made by Specialists of AericuI- turaI Department Economical
 for Producing Flesh.

Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment Of Agriculture.)
 Wheatless rations for commercial or coop fleshing of young chickens for market offers to commercial feeders singularly efficient and economical ra- tions for rapid gains in weight. In tests conducted by specialists of the United States department of agricul- ture n ration composed of cornmeal and fresh buttermilk, fed again and again throughout the whole feeding season, produced in II days coop feed ing an average gain of a pound for every S.SS pounds of wet feed con- Sumed. Still better results were ob tained with disti rS' grains. In the tests the highest and cheapest gains were made by birds having an initial weight of two pounds or less.
 The tests were made under commer- cial rather than farm methods of poul. try feeding. The aim of the cOmmer- cial feeder is to increase the flesh of young birds rapidly and economically in brief period after they are re ceived from the farms and this neces- sitates the use of coopS, which allow the chickens little exercise and regular and abundant feeding under clean con ditiOns. It calls for special equipment and for use of time and employment of labor to n degree not possible on most farms.
 Three rations were used in the eX- perimontS. Rations A, consisting of 100 pounds of cornmeal and l27 pounds of water, after a two weeks feeding period. gave gain of per cent of the initial weight. Ration B, consisting of 100 pounds of cornmeal and 150 pounds of fresh buttermilk, after feeding period of the same length, gave a gain of 30.41 per cent of the initial weight. Ration c. consisting of 75 pounds of cornmeal. 9 pounds dried distillers' grain (corn) and 150 pounds fresh buttermilk, gave during this leed- ing period a gain of 35.l per cent of the initial weight. The amount of wet feed required to produce gain of one f'uiiu oA htsi III IT t0yS huS us lul- lows:
 Ration A 43s1 pounds (Gr,in 19 54 pounds) Ration B S.& pounds (Grain 355 pounds) Ration c 1.9l pounds (Grain 316 pounds)
 With ration c the gain was prcc- tically uniform, while the rate of gain with ration B decreased slightly toward the end of the feeding period, and the gain made by the chickens fed on ra- ton A was irregular.
 It was found that if every 10000 pound carload of broilers slaughtered as they come from the farm are fed for two weeks on ration c the gain in weight to the packer would average 6,S67 pounds. The gain in edible meat would amount to 4,064 pounds. of which approximately COS pounds are protein and 1,561 are fat
 Ration c, which gave the best re- suits, was for the production of poul- try flesh food only, and the same re- suits would not be obtained if fed to birds when unconfined; hence the de- auctions drawn on the hasis of the experiment reported must not be ap- piled to birds intended for egg pro- duction or for breeding stock, or to the feeding of birds ranging on the farm.

 In dealing with the diseases of hogs, preventive measures must be most re- lied on. The animals must be given dry and well-ventilated quarters, which must he kept clean. Contrary to com mon belief, hogs have some habits which raise them above other domes- tic animals from the standpoint of cleanliness. For example, unless con- Ielled to do so, hog will not sleep in Its own filth. If part of the floor of the pen is raised and kept well bedded with straw, while the rest is not, all excrement will be left on the undecided portion of the floor and the bed itself will be always clean.
 Attention to Feed.
 Tn addition to cleanliness, close at tention should be given to the feed, so that nothing may be fed that will convey the germs of disease, especial ly tuberculosis, to the herd. If the hogs are fed milk in any form Ob- tained from cows kept upon the same farm, the cows should be subjected to the tuberculin test. If they run with the dairy cattle of the farm. tuber- culin test of all the cattle Is none the less desirable. Animals dead from any disease should not be fed to the hogs until the meat has been made safe by cooking. Skim milk or refuse from a public creamery should not be fed to hogs until 1t has been thoroughly sterilized.
 Feeding and drinking places should be clean and the water supply pure. Unless the origin is known to be un- contaminated and there has been no possibility of infection during its course, hogs should not be allowed ac- cess to any stream. Wallows should be drained out and kept filled up as much as possible. At least once n month the quarters should be diSin- fected with air-slaked lime or : per cent solution of crude carbolic acid. These precautions will be found valu- able aids in the destruction of the va rious animal parasites, as well as a protection from some more serious troubInc

Danger of Inbreeding.

While inbreeding is the sureSt and quickest means to fix type, 1t should be resorted to with the greatest care. The value of the system is that 1t en- ables the breeder to intensity deSira- ble characteristics in herd and makes improvement possible in a shorter time than where selection alone is used It stands to reason that if desirable characteristics can be intensified. the same will be true of undesirable ones. Much of the diSas- ter which seems to have followed in- breeding has probably been due to the fact that this point was overlooked or given only slight importance, and thus loss of vitality and constitution and susceptibility to disease have fol- lowed. Therefore if the young breed CT contemp1ates inbreeding he should lar defects. Not only should care be taken to prevent this in the animals mated. but there should he no chance of bad effects due to the inheritance of undesirable characteristics from parents and other ancestors. Some of breeding has been based on these prin- ciples.
 The straight corn diet. which many hogs receive from one years end to the other also lessens vitality, and the researches of the Wisconsin experi- ment station have shown that this is probably brought about by retarding the development of the vital organs. A minimum of inbreeding and a varied diet, including, especially for breeding stock. ample range. will therefore bet ter enable the herd to resist the st- tacks of disease.
 Advantage of Isolated Hog Houses.
 The advantage of number of small portable houses, each accommodating a few hogs. rather than one large pig gery for the entire herd has been re- ferred to previously. In districts where cholera is prevalent these are undoubtedly the best shelters. They make it more difficult to carry con- tagion to all animals in the herd, and the destruction of one of them in case of an outbreak does not entail a great expense. An added advantage is that they may be moved from place to place as needed. While more work is necessary in feeding, the convent cnce and safety from their use more than offset this disadvantage.
 Quarantine Restrictions.
 Whenever any animals are brought to the farm, or when animals are brought from shows or from nelghbor- iny farms. they should be kept apart from the rest of the herd for at least three weeks. If they have been ex- posed to hog cholera pr swine plague
