The same quality of hay was used in the chopped lots as in the long hay lots; conse quently they both contained the same amount of foreign material. In all chopped hay lots where the lambs could not pick over the hay as well, the seeds would lodge in the lower lip of the lamb and cause ulcers, thus interfering with the lamb’s feeding. The mouths of the lambs on chopped hay had to be cleaned out once a week. The shorn lambs, fed barley and chopped vetch and oat hay, made a slightly better gain than unshorn lambs on the same ration but not enough to off-set the market dockage ■ on shorn lambs. A fter 70 days’ feeding it was evident that the lots being fed oat and vetch hay were not making satisfactory gains. One of the lots was divided in half. One half was fed molasses mixed with the hay and the other half was fed kale in addition to the feed already being fed. The molasses and the kale caused no increase in the gain per head per day. Alfalfa fed lambs made a fair profit above feed eosts in the 90-day feeding period, though Nelson believes th at a little more gain would have brought faster and more economical gains. The experiment will be repeated as part of the present investigations into ways of building a better livestock industry in western Oregon.
