THE PRODUCTION VALUES OF FEEDING STUFFS 66 1 



first showing the losses of energy and the net energy values per 

 100 pounds of dry matter and the second the percentage dis- 

 tribution of the gross energy of the feeding stuffs between 

 the various losses and the net energy values. As already in- 

 dicated (745, 749, 756), it appears probable that these values 

 may be used also for other classes of ruminants without serious 

 error.

761. Net energy values for swine. Combining in the same 

 form the results of the determinations of the heat increment 

 caused by the consumption of feed by swine (757) which are 

 recorded in Table 198 and such data regarding the losses of 

 energy in feces, urine and methane as are contained in Table 188 

 (749) yields the net energy values shown in Table 204 :
