A larger proportion of best pigs for bacon was obtained with 

 barley than with corn feeding. 



The addition of either milk or bran, but especially the latter, 

 to barley or corn raised the proportion of best pigs. 



The addition of potatoes to barley increased the proportion of 

 best pigs, whilst a similar addition to corn, decreased it. 



The addition of beans and oats to corn increased the propor- 

 tion of best pigs. 



To produce 100 Ibs. increase in live weight about 5 per cent, 

 more corn than barley was required. 



When fed with barley 63,4 gallons of separated milk replaced 

 127 Ibs. of barley, or one gallon of separated milk equals 2 Ibs. 

 of barley. 



When fed with corn 59,6 gallons of separated milk replaced 

 186,7 Ibs. of corn, or i gallon of separated milk equals 3 Ibs of corn. 

 Fresh separated milk gave a better result than stale separated 

 milk. 



When bran was fed with barley, 143,9 Ibs. of bran replaced 

 179,7 Ibs. of barley, or i Ib. of bran equals i l / 4 Ibs. of barley. 

 When bran was fed with corn 155,8 Ibs. of bran replaced 

 1 8 1, 3 Ibs. of corn, or 5 Ibs. of bran equals 6 Ibs. of corn. 



When pea meal was fed Svith corn 103 Ibs. of the former re- 

 placed 183,5 Ibs. of the latter, or i Ib. of peas equals rather more 

 than i J /4 Ibs. of corn. 



When bean meal was fed with corn 101 Ibs. of the former re- 

 placed 189 Ibs. of the latter, or i Ib. of beans equals 2 Ibs. of 

 corn nearly. 



To produce 100 Ibs. dressed weight, the quantity of barley 

 alone used was very slightly in excess of the corn meal alone. 



8 1, 6 gallons of separated milk fed with barley, effected a saving 

 of 141,4 Ibs. of the latter, or i gallon of separated milk equals 

 i 3 / 4 Ibs. of barley meal. 



72 gallons of separated milk fed with corn meal replaced 205,2 Ibs. 

 of the latter, or one gallon of separated milk equals rather more 

 than 2 3 / 4 Ibs. of corn. 



Where bran was fed with barley, 202,5 lb s. of bran replaced 

 172 Ibs. of barley. In this case therefore the value of the bran 

 in increasing dressed weight was very considerably less than that 

 of the barley. 



Where bran was fed with corn, 186 Ibs. of the latter were re- 

 placed by 191 Ibs. of the former, i. e., the two food stuffs were 

 of nearly equal value in the production of dressed weight.
