The outitde runwa trom magnate: building was tn use Lean Pigs Made Cheapest Gains Does it take any more feed to produce a pound of lean pork than a pound of fat? Records from the feeding stations for the Advanced Registry ot Swine pres- ent some interesting conclusions on_this much debated syblect.. . These records, for the period from March 1952, to January 15, 1954, cover 722 sows with four pigs tested from a litter from each sow, or a total of 2,888 pigs. All the ttt were slaughtered as they reac ed a weight to yield Ctkr- cnsses of about 145-155 lb. They were scored under the Advanced Registry scoring system, which has been set up to give high ac9res, to lean carcasses. _ ' Under this system of scoring, the 722 litters represented divided about equally - 360 to 362 - be- tween those four pigs had an av- erage score between 75 and 100 points and those In which the four gigs had an average score under 5 points. The average score for all the high-scoring groups was 81.5 points, and that for the low. scaring groups was 66.4 pound. . The high-sconng groups and the low-scoring groups averaged within a pound of the same weight both at the start of the test and at ume of slaughter, and there was not more than a day or two between them m the number ot days on test. All got an iden- tical feed when fed m self-feed hoppers, with fresh water always available. For the 102 days the pigs were on test, the 362 low-scoring gmups required 363 pounds of teed for each 100 pounds they gained in weight. The high-scoring groups required only 360 pounds of feed tor each 100 pounds they gained in weight. Thus the pigs produc- ing the highest proportion of lean meat did so on sl1ghtly less feed than those that were scored down because they carried too high a peryentage of fat. - . 717'!th did the feed required per poynd et 3?ng T weight compare? A comparison of the two groups under the carcass or rail grading; system shows the same results. When the carcasses of both groups' were graded, the high- scoring group had an average of 84.97 per cent Grade A's; the low- scoring group an average of 50.2 per cent. This would indicate that even the low-scoring group was ot reasonably good bacon type. Within this group, however, were 55 litters With a low average score under 59 points. Ot the 220 pigs from these 55 litters, only 23 per cent qualified as Grade A's. They carried the higher proportion of tat to lean of any of the litter groups under test, yet their aver- age feed consumption per 100 pounds of gain was 364 pounds or no less than either of the other grS?pps. - . . . . The ration fed consisted of bar- ley, wheat and oats, mixed in the proportion ot 50 pounds of bar- ley, 20 pounds of wheat and 30 pounds of oats.

Fyt Lu, 're Mow, On visiting the Ontario Hospital Farm near St. Thomas, the Water- loo farmers saw 'oproximateiy one hundred head of fattening steers eating hay directly from a ground-level hay mow. The hay was put in by forage harvester. The side of the mow was con- structed as a movable feeder and as the ha was eaten out the rack wag paged closer to the hay again. Silage and concentrate was led to the steers with a four- wheeled carrier which ran on the railings of a long, specially con- structed. feed bunk. Forced air hay drying and the ttetg'yttg'g ot fattening beef cattle were features of this call. Onion Growing a Speelalty Waterloo County farmers saw onions being produced on a large ‘scale when they visited the form- er Mitchell Hepburn farm in El- }gin County. Soft, black, damp, 1nuSk soil is the valuable onion land. Special machines for (spraying, seeding and cultivating were ins‘pected but the large amount o hand labor required to pull the weeds away from among the five inch high onion plants was noted, particularly as a few of us who were visitors stopped briefly to help the Japanese wo- men at thytweeding/ H --- Our next stop was at the West- ern Ontario Agricultural School at Ridgetown, where we spent the night. Here we saw grass silage successfully chopped into a pit silo. The stack of long orchard grass put up for silage with a buck-rake attracted much atten- tion, and reports received this past winter indicate that most of this silage had spoiled. Two ret1- sons were given: (1) The grass was too dry when stacked an (2) the grass was not packed down en.eytrttty. keep the all: out, _ The following morning the tour continued with the guidance ot Kent County's Agricultural Re- presentativt Mr. Kenneth Lana. We noted that mast of the land was very level clay soil. with much tile drainage necessary. The drainage system was new to most of us. The tile system emp- tied into deep canals which in many cases were pumped into Lake St. Clair through a system of canals, on the bank of which the roads were built. A large acreage ot this county is at, or be- low, the lake level, and is drained ‘by_tile_s_ end then pumped. out. - At Wallaceburg we visited the "Green-mek' alfalfa dehydrating plant. Manager Jock Appleton explained its operation and showed us to the meadows where the green forage was being cut with a huge $8.000 self-propelled forage harvester. A power un- loading special trailer stays fast.. ened to the forage harvester to collect the forage while the trucks are on the road hauling the forage to the dehydrator, hese large capacity machines were very in- teresting especially as noted while operating. lanky. lulu: (in-“Bung.
