TABLE OF WEIGHTS AND GAINS 



ALFALFA HAY LOT 



PRAIRIE HAY LOT 



Without exception the gains made by the alfalfa lot are the 

 largest ever obtained in a feeding experiment with lambs at 

 this Station. This table shows that the individual gains va- 

 ried from thirty-six hundredths (.36) to sixty-five hundredths 

 (.65) of a pound daily, and an average gain per head daily 

 of fifty-one hundredths (.51) of a pound. 



Bulletin No. 86 of this Station (edition now exhausted) 

 shows that where ten different grain rations, with prairie hay, 

 were fed to lambs for the purpose of fattening, the average 

 gain per head daily ranged from twenty-two hundredths 

 (.22) to twenty-nine hundredths (.29) of a pound.
