lily gain per head during the final seventeen days of the test was only 

 .068 pound. 



8. During the first six days after the feterita and milo had beer* 

 ipplied in the ration of Lot 2 at the end of the first fifty-nine-day 

 >riod, the average gain per head was increased from 0.24 to 0.4 

 >und daily.

 )fit of 38'.3 per cent, on the original investment.
