Feeding Ensilage to Lambs. 



351 



It will be observed from Table XTTT tbat the difference in protein 

 of the two lots is no greater than that in individuals of the 

 same lot, so that in this case the wide difference in the rations 

 of the two lots did not produce a marked difference in growth of the 

 animals or of chemical composition of the meat. 



Figure 1 shows a reproduction from photographs taken from 

 a cross-section between the eleventh and twelfth ribs of one indi- 

 vidual of each lot. These sections also show that there was no 

 marked difference in the amount or distribution of lean and fat 

 meat of the two animals. 



Table XTV gives the weight of each animal at the close of tlie 



experiment and also the dressed weight and weight of internal 



organs. 



Table XIV. 



It will be seen that the only marked difference in the internal 

 organs is that the livers of the nitrogenous lot were nearly twice 

 as heavy as those of the carbonaceous lot 



The pigs fed in this experiment were of the same lot an.d breed 

 ing as the dams of the pigs of the succeeding experiment. 



Nitrogenous and Carbonaceous Rations for Pigs — Second 



Generation. 



Four Poland China pigs about three months old were divided 

 into two lots of two each, November second, for experimental feed- 

 ing to compare nitrogenous and carbonaceous rations.
