SUPPLEMENTARY FEEDS WITH CORN 157 
494.7 pounds for the shorts and corn lots, 409.9 pounds for 
the meat meal and corn lot, and 460.4 pounds for the tankage 
and corn lot. 
5. Among the conclusions drawn from the experiment, the 
following statements occur: 
‘Meat meal and tankage of similar chemical composition 
are almost equal, pound for pound, as a supplement to a 
corn ration for growing pigs and fattening hogs.” 
“ Hogs fed on rations composed of corn and meat ical, 
and corn and tankage, were fully as acceptable to the buyers, 
both from the stand-point of the quality and condition of the 
flesh, as those fed on any other rations used.” 
“ Both meat meal and tankage are more valuable adjuncts 
to the corn ration for dry lot feeding than when pigs or hogs 
are being developed and fattened on pasture, especially if the 
pasture be composed of leguminous crops.” 
“ A ration of one-half corn and one-half shorts produced 
greater gains with less feed per 100 pounds of gain, both on 
pasture and dry lot feeding, than a ration of two-thirds corn 
and one-third shorts.” 
Skim-Milk.—From a test with skim-milk, tankage, linseed 
meal, soy-bean meal, and wheat middlings as supplements to 
corn meal, conducted at the Indiana Experiment Station, the 
following conclusions are drawn: 
“Skim-milk, tankage, linseed meal, soy-bean meal, and 
middlings proved to be very efficient supplements to corn 
meal.” 
“Togs fed on corn meal and skim-milk consumed more 
feed, made a greater increase in live weight with a smaller 
amount of feed and dry matter, and at less expense than 
similar lots fed on corn meal supplemented by tankage, linseed 
meal, soy-bean meal, or middlings.”
