being hand-fed at fhe Government farm as a result of

formed from a three year study of the two method'. The general

plan of the test was to place the same kinds of feeds in separate comparrments of a self-feeder for sows and litters were fed all they would readily dean up twice daily while the self-fed sow* and - litters had free access to the self-feeder at all time*. The results of the three tear test indicate that: Self-feeding

sows and litters during the suckling period saves both labor and feed: the self-fed lot Has more thrifty than the hand-fed lot; a total of 441 pounds of feed was required for 100 pounds of gain i:i the self-fed lots, while the hand-fed lots required 603 pounds; the pigs from the self-led lots nude greater daily gains from farrowing to weaning and alio during the various tests in w hich they were

subsequently used.

It was noted also that no overcrowding of sows and pig‘ " occurred at the self-feeder' even where there was a large numbrt of sows with litters in one lot. There is also les< danger of overeating when feed is available at all limes, as is the case with self-

feeding.

Spray Residues on Early Apples The New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station is recommend itS dlisting for the combatting of codling moth side wur.ns in earli apples. I.ikewise. it is recommending dust at the last end of thr SCiedillr for late apples. Thi* i» because the poison stick' more coni■jdrtclv when sprayed on. leaving an excess of arsenic at harvest tune known as a spray residue. But when dusting is done short), before the harvest season its removal is no great problem. In fact it h largely wa.hrd off by tlie raid, and blown off by the winds. The British authorities have requested that no apples be shipped to England on which mote than one one hundrrth ot a grain of anrnic exist* on a pound of apple'. Since there arc nearly 7iK>‘ grains in a pound avoirdupois, it will be seen that the demand that the weight of arsenic on any apple not exceed one seven hundred thousandth of the weight ot the apple. Tests made by Dr. Md-ain at New Brunswick the past year rfiowed that New Jersey winter apples sprayed in August had on an average mx times the amount arsenic allowed bv the British authontii'. .small apple, carry mote than large.
