Note that all the flocks were kept at a loss during the months of Oct. , Nov. and Dec. 

 and that the starved flocks made a less profit during the starvation period than the 

 fed flocks, and only a slightly less loss during the early winter months and consider- 

 ably less profit during the latter part of the year.
