They failed to thrive and ulti mately developed pathological symptoms and died. Pigs farrowed by sows not on experiment and raised on normal rations to 60 or 70 pounds were eventually handicapped by white corn feeding altho they made normal gains for several weeks. At weights of 175 to 200 pounds they developed characteristic symptoms of white corn feeding and finished poorly.
