10. Lambs fed shelled corn and clover hay gained 24 pounds 

 as compared to 26 pounds by lambs fed shelled corn and alfalfa hay. 



11. Cost of gain was higher from the standpoint of feed re- 

 quired and cost of feed with clover hay than with alfalfa hay for 

 roughage. 



12. Lambs fed alfalfa hay acquired a better finish and returned 

 a larger profit than those fed clover hay. 



PART IV 



13. The addition of cottonseed meal to a ration of shelled corn, 

 clover hay, and corn silage had no effect on the daily feed consump- 

 tion by lambs. 



14. The addition of cottonseed meal to the ration slightly in- 

 creased the rate of gain and decreased the feed required to make 

 a pound of gain, but not the actual cost of gain. 



15. Lambs fed cottonseed meal in addition to a ration of shelled 

 corn, clover hay, and corn silage were valued at $10.90 per cwt. and 

 returned a profit of $1.74 per head; those not fed the cottonseed 

 meal were valued at $10.30 per head and returned a profit of $1.31 

 per head. 



PART V 



1 6. The substitution of a small quantity of cane molasses for 

 an equal quantity of corn in a ration of shelled corn, cottonseed 

 meal, clover hay, and corn silage did not produce any marked effect 

 on the appetites of the lambs or the rate of gain made by the lambs, 

 but slightly increased the cost of gains. 



17. The addition of the molasses to the ration failed to add to 

 the finish of the lambs or the profits returned. 



PART VI 



1 8. Lambs fed ground soybeans as supplement to corn, clover 

 hay and silage maintained as eager appetites and consumed as large 

 quantities of feed as those fed cottonseed meal as supplement. 



19. Lambs fed ground soybeans gained 24.3 pounds as com- 

 pared to 25.2 pounds by those fed cottonseed meal. 



20. Gains were made more economically from both feed and 

 financial standpoint by using cottonseed meal instead of ground 

 soybeans. . 



21. Lambs fed ground soybeans as supplement were valued at 

 $10.65 per cwt. and returned a profit of $1.45 per head; those fed 

 cottonseed meal as supplement were valued at $10.90 per cwt. and 

 returned a profit of $1.74 per head.
