Burtis and Malone suggesl that had the cotton-seed meal lots been 
running on greeu pasture from the beginning of the experiment n< 
Losses would have occurred. They also suggest the probability thai 
a ration of one-tenth to one-fifth cotton-seed meal may be fed for an 
Indefinite time if pigs have the run of green pasture. 
THK ARKANSAS EXPERIMENTS. 
In addition to throwing Light on the pathological features of cotton- 
seed poisoning, Dinwiddie lias corroborated the results of those sta- 
tions, which have shown that, when properly fed, cotton-seed meal is 
a valuable pig feed, if Losses can be avoided. In the experiments in 
which all the pigs died, Lot I received a ration of cotton-seed meal l 
part and corn chops 3 parts; Lot II received cotton-seed meal 1 part, 
and corn meal 3 parts, with roots; Lot III received cotton-seed meal 1 
part and wheat bran 3 parts, and Lot [V received bran l part and corn 
Chops 3 parts. There were three pie;s in each pen, and feeding began 
January l. L9Q2. The pigs were confined in pens with an open shed 
tor shelter, were watered and \\'i\ t wiee daily, ami had a mixture of 
hard-wood ashes and salt supplied constantly. The results are tabu- 
lated as follows:
