cl IBIS AID FEEDING METHODS
Very Noticeable Changes Have Come
About as Result Of Demonstra'
tons by Members.

(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricultural
One of the outstanding effects OF
the boys and girls pig club work IS the
in feeding methods en-
ployed by adults who have followed
the lead of some club member. Even
in the leading hog producing states
where the quality of the hogs is high,
very noticeable changes in FEEDING
practices have come about as the re-
sult Of the demonstrations made by
club members.
In some instances it has been the
use Of a self-feeder for fattening hogs
by a club member that was the means
of causing the farmers Of that commu'
nifty to adopt the same method. In
other sections the use of balanced
ration by a club member caused the
farmers in his neighborhood to realize
that corn alone is poor and expen-
sive hog feed, or that grazing crops or
good pastures are essential to economi'
cal gains on swine. In one county in
Kentucky the pig-club demonstrations
were the meals of increasing the use
Of tankage, as supplement to corn,
from two tons to Is tons per year in
two years time. In Alabama the pig
club agent obtained pound of rape
seed for each member who made pre-
liminary report on his or her pig. AS
a result of this small beginning one
store in one county sold over 1000
pounds of rape seed that fall and l.
500 pounds the following spring, and
now that county is green with grazins
crops for hogs. Since rape has made
{: place for itself in that county, the
use Of soy beans, cowpeas, velvet
beans, etc., Is now being pushed. Sim
liar results, though perhaps less strik
ing, have been obtained in other states
sixty-one pen cent of the members who
completed their work last year report
the use of grazing or pasture crops.
The demonstrations by the boys are
closely watched by the adults. Tht
