OREGON STATE COLLEGE. Cor vallls With wheat at its present low I price, now Is a good time for wheat 1 growers and other farmers with pigs 1 to realize a profit from their cereal I In the form of pork, according to A. I W. Oliver, assistant professor of anl I mal husbandry at Oregon State col lege. Wheat this year for the first time in several years has gained promin ence as hog feed. Professor Oliver rays, and some Eastern Oregon farm ers are even buying feeder pigs at their present high prices to feed them the grain. Animal husbandry special ists here emphasize however that it Is doubtful if it will pay stockmen or farmers to buy more pigs in order to feed them cheap wneat. Wheat has practically the same value as food for hogs that barley has and both are about the same price now. While ground wheat will put weight on the porkers, it is rec ommended that it be supplemented with some protein food such as aklmmed milk cr tankage. It is esti mated that it takes 450 pounds of wheat olone to produce 100 pounds of pork, but that by using 200 pounds of milk the same amount of pork can lw produced with about 300 pounds of wheat. While wheat has always been fed to hoi;s In small quantities in- some localities. Professor Oliver points out that the price of it in some yea" has not made it profitable and in most cases it has been a losing propo sition. Records kept by the animal husbandry department since 1910 show an average loss over the 20 year period of 28 cent? per hundred pounds of wheat fed to hogs .over what the market price would have brought. The same figures show a profit of one cent a hundred pounds for barley fed to porkers. "The ratio is now very favorable for converting wheat into pork." Pro fessor Oliver declares. 'The trouble la in getting feeder pigs since their production is from five to nine per cent below normal. Some are being shipped to Oregon from the middle west, but with even an average corn crop in the corn belt demands there jrtiv iiKciy io i, the cure ot any plus."
