FISH MEAL AS A FEED FOR SWINE. G 
The results of this work, and also the successful use of fish meal 
as a feeding stuff in Germany, show that the belief that the consump- 
tion of this product taints the meat is unwarranted. 
CONCLUSION. 
Fish meal is a very effective supplement to a grain ration for pigs. 
The animals relish it and are extremely fond of it. Fish meal was 
superior to tankage in all comparisons, although the daily gains in 
all cases were exceptionally good. The pigs maintained a thrifty 
growth and were never off their feed during the entire feeding period. 
Fish meal does not impart a fishy flavor to the meat or lard in any 
way if fed in proper proportions with other feeds. Where fish meal 
can be obtained conveniently at a reasonable price and in suitable 
quantity, it has a very considerable value in pig feeding. When 
given a fair trial and used in proper proportions it should become 
one of the most popular as well as most remunerative protein sup- 
plements for pig feeding.
