FINISH. The finish secured on the cattle in Lot 7 is of much 

 interest since the advantage of such a method as was adopted in this 

 lot lies in the fact that feeding cattle can be held for a short time on 

 roughage alone in order to take advantage of a later market, pro- 

 vided conditions warrant it, and thus be full fed for a short time 

 only. 



Table XXIII shows the selling value of the cattle at the end 

 of the experiment, and 60 days before the end of the experiment. 



TABLE XXIII. Showing Selling Value of Long and Short-Fed 

 Cattle, Winter 1910-11 



It will be noted that the short-fed lot did not acquire as good a 

 finish by 25 cents per cwt. as did the long-fed lot. This 

 difference in value was not as great, however, as had been the case 

 two months before the end of the trial when the values were 40 

 cents per cwt. different. 



SUMMARY. Table XXIV shows a complete summary of the 

 results of the trial.
