DATE OF Week of Weight of Pigs at the close of each Average weight for each Week,

In Table No. 2 is given the amount of feed consumed in each pen for each week, the gain per cent. in each pen for each week, and the average gain per cent. in both pens. The gain per cent. is found by proportion, from the weight given in Table No. 1. For example, the weight of the pigs in Pen A, at the beginning of the third week, is 43.50 (the weight given at the close of the 2d week). The gain for the week is nine pounds.

The gain per cent. the third week is therefore 20.69 lbs., as

shown in Table No. 2.
