The results of the Wisconsin and Ontario trials with whey as 

 a feed for pigs is shown in the following table: 



Feeding trials with grain and whey Wisconsin Station and Ontario 



College. 



Wisconsin Station. 



Ontario Agricultural College. 



Averaging the results of the trials we find that 



481 pounds of grain produced 100 pounds gain. 



303 pounds of grain with 1,398 pounds of whey produced 100 pounds gain. 



This shows that 1,398 pounds of whey saved 178 pounds of 

 grain. On this basis, 785 pounds of whey equals 100 pounds of 

 grain.

 Station 1 throws light on the value of meat scrap for feeding pigs. 

 A bunch of twelve pigs divided into two lots of six each was fed 

 four months, beginning October 10, as follows: Lot I received 

 oorn meal only, while Lot II was fed one part meat scrap to two
