The author reports in this paper the results obtained in one experiment with wet an dry mash on the growing of chickens. The experiment started with two groups of 50 Sussex bred each, one receiving dry and other wet mash. The observations were continued in another four groups of 25 chickens each, two of Rhod Island Red bred and two of Sussex bred, both receiving dry and wet mash. The chickens were weight every 10 days and the differences obtained proved to be not significant statistically. Both dry and wet mash were equally good but wet mash is much more dificult to give to the chickkens than the dry one.

A presente experiência foi realizada afim de se constatar a influência de dois tipos de milho comerciais, com grãos coloridos de amarelo-laranja, como precursores de vitamina A no crescimento de pintos. Um deles, denominado "Cateto", duro, de côr laranja muito forte e outro, chamado "Armour", dente, de coloração amarelo-laranja. Para testemunha foi empregado o milho "Cristal", duro e branco. Uma análise dos pigmentos dos dois tipos de milho com gráos coloridos mostrou que o milho Cateto, com grãos de coloração laranja forte, tem aproximadamente o dobro de pigmentos, tanto total como quanto a parte ativa em relação à vitamina A, quando comparado com o milho dente amarelo-laranja. Três lotes de pintos de 3 semanas foram utilizados, cada um recebendo a mesma ração onde variava somente o tipo de milho. Nas três primeiras semanas os três lotes reagiram bem, sem quaisquer diferenças apreciáveis. Após a terceira semana, o lote que recebeu milho branco apresentou uma queda sensível de peso dos pintos, os quais apresentaram todos os sinais de avitaminose A. Os outros dois lotes que receberam ração contendo milho de grãos coloridos não apresentaram sinal de avitaminose A. Os resultados obtidos indicam assim que a) o milho "Armour", dente, de grãos amarelo-laranja, embora possua, em relação ao milho "Cateto", duro, de grãos coloridos de laranja forte, cerca da metade da quantidade de pigmentos ativos em relação a formação de vitamina A no organismo animal, é capaz de prevenir a avitaminose, quando empregado em cerca de 70% da ração, b) que a ração contendo o milho "Cristal", duro, de grãos brancos, é deficiente, produzindo uma acentuada avitaminose A, que deverá ser corrigida, na falta de milho de grãos amarelo-laranja, por alimento verde ou outro alimento fornecedor dessa vitamina e c) que sendo o milho "Cateto", mais caro de Cr.$2,00 a 8,00 por saco de 60 quilos, há vantagem econômica no emprego do milho tipo "Armour" na constituição das misturas para aves.

Examinando 201 pintos de um dia da raça Rhode Island Red, de rebanho selecionado pela postura e considerando diversos caracteres, principalmente os relacionados com a côr da penugem, conseguimos acertar em 197, numa proporção de 98,01%, não relatada da bibliografia que conhecemos. Julgamos como mais importantes, os seguintes caracteres : mancha clara na asa notada em 100% dos machos e 6,30% das fêmeas; o anel claro na perna ocorreu em 91,80% dos machos e 3,70% das fêmeas. Estas duas particularidades, sòmente, permitem separação de sexo superior a 96%. O sinal junto ao ângulo posterior do olho foi observado em 95,10% das fêmeas e 36,70% dos machos; ponta da asa escura não ocorreu em um macho sequer, mas em 53.20% das fêmeas; ponta da asa clara foi notada em todos os machos e em 46,80% das fêmeas. Os demais caracteres mencionados no quadro, constituem elementos auxiliares de menor valor mas devem ser examinados para se esclarecerem dúvidas. Os erros decorreram de se dar mais importância à pinta escura na cabeça que ao anel claro na perna e à mancha no bordo da asa. O presente trabalho contribui para o esclarecimento do assunto principalmente por considerar o anel claro da perna e o sinal escuro próximo ao ângulo posterior do olho, caracteres valiosos e ainda não apontados anteriormente. Ainda mais, a observação metódica e conjunta de um grande número de atributos relacionados com o dimorfismo sexual constitui um subsídio ao esclarecimento de tão interessante questão.

The authors tried to check in this experiment the minimum of yellow corn necessary for preventing avitaminosis A in chickens. It was observed, in balanced ration with 50% of corn, that: a) 20% of dent and yellow grains and 30% of flint and white grains were insuficient to prevent avitaminosis A. b) 20% of flint and orange grains and 30% of flint and white grains or 40% of either colored grains and 10% of flint, and white grains did not show evident signs of avitaminosis A during the 12 weeks of the experiment. The ration containing 20% of flint and orange grains is pratically equivalent to the ration containing 40% of dent and yellow grains, regarding the content of pro-vitamina A. However, it was not possible to conclude if these dosage are sufficient to give the necessary vitamina A for normal development of the chickens since the table 3 seems to indicate a negative correlation between the amount of pigment in the ration and the mortality of the animals.

Two groups of 51 one day chickens were placed on a diet in which 10% of corn meal in the ration has been substituted by cane molasses. It was found that in the diet with cane molasses the chickens had a better development and the difference was found to be statistically significant. Since corn meal is more expensive than cane molasse, that substitution is recommended.

Foram tomados 2 lotes de pintos Rhode Island Red de 40 dias de idade que foram submetidos, o lote A a uma alimentação com ração sem proteina de origem animal, na qual a farinha de carne foi substituida por igual quantidade de farelo de torta de sementes de algodão, e adicionada à mesma 2 quilos de excremento de vaca, colhido fresco, secado ao sol e triturado; o lote B, que serviu de testemunha continha os mesmos ingredientes, com exceção de excremento de vaca e da torta de algodão, em lugar da qual figurava a farinha de carne. Alimentadas durante 6 semanas as aves se comportaram de maneira idêntica, acusando as do lote A um aumento leve e progressivo do peso médio, embora sem diferença estatística. O excremento de vaca foi satisfatório e supriu as deficiências da ração de tratamento em certos amino ácidos só presentes em proteinas de origem animal como a farinha de carne.

This paper deals with an experiment to determine the optimum period (number of days) in fattening chickens. Thirty chickens R. I. R. were numbered, weighed and feeded in crate, with one standard ration (17% crude protein). The chickens were weighted every two days and the results obtained indicate the optimum is reached between 12 and 16 days of feeding. It was observed that after 16 days the weights stop or decrease progressively as showed by the Grafic I.

The author studied in this paper effect of chicory (Chicorium intybus L.), kikuyugrass (Pennisetum clandestinum Hoahst) and a variety of Bermuda grass (Cynodon dactilon Pers.) named "Grama seda" as green feeds in growth of White Leghorn chickens (0-8 weeks). Males and females were se-pareted by feathering and development of comb. The results obtained can be summarized as follows : a) - Without separation of sex, the chickens that received green feeds showed better development than that did not receive green suplements. b) - The chicory showed to be something better that kikuyugrass and Bermuda grass, which had a similar effect. c) - The green feeds used had little influence in development of males. d) - The females in the lots suplemented by green feeds showed to be superior to the females in the lots that did not receive it. e) - The author think that the presence of some priciples having action in the female hormony function is responsable for the better growth in the lot that received green feeds.

The ramie leaf meal was used in a feeding trial, in comparison with alfalfa hay meal in the range of 5% of the ration. Each lot consisted of two pens of 45 White American chicks was raised in batteries for 6 weeks. From results of the analisis of variance the AA. concluded for the superiority of the ramie leaf meal (586,4 g) over the alfalfa hay meal (540,1 g) in the conditions of the experiment.

In a feeding trial cassava root meal was used as a substitute for wheat bran and wheat middling (mixed) in several ranges: 10, 15, 20 and 30% of a ration. Five groups of 32 seven day old Rhode I. Red chicks were used during 6 weeks of the trial. The results are shown in the Tables (Quadros) I, II and III. Table I shows an high mortality in R4, receiving 30% of cassava root meal and no wheat by product. It was observed a depression of the development of the chicks that was so much high as the proportion of the cassava meal increased in the ration consumed. The A. suggests cassava root meal might have an antagonistic factor acting as a "toxic", that he imagine could be corrected by a higher vitaminic and mineral proportion. This hipothesis must be investigated.

Bacta-mon, produced by Bacta-mon S. A., São Paulo, Brazil, is recommended as a microbiological, and suggested as a supplement for animal rations. This experiment deals with this product in chicken feeding. Four lots of baby chicken received, during 6 weeks the following treatments: a control ration Rl; a ration R2 containing 10 per cent of wheat standard middlings fermented by Bacta-mon, substituting equal weight of wheat standard middlings of the control ration Rl; two rations R3 and R4, both without meat meal and containing 10 per cent of wheat standard middlings fermented respectively by Bactamon and fresh cow manure, substituting equal weight of wheat standard middlings of the control. The results may be so summarized: (1) On the basis of the weights of the chicks at 6 weeks age, we concluded that there was not any advantage in the addition of the wheat standard middlings fermented by Bacta-mon. (2) The rations R3 and R4 were considered statistically equivalents and lower the control ration Rl. (3) It seems that the main difference observed in these results may be atributed to lack of animal protein. (4) The highest mortality and the lowest consumption of feed by the lots receiving ration R3 and R4, seem to indicate, in addition, that this prejudice was due the lack of animal protein and the unpalatability of these rations.

Searching for a substitute of wheat bran and wheat standard middlings in chick mashes, three experiments were carried out using ground sorghums. In the first one, 30% of Atlas, Kafir e White Afrikan x Sumac (seed chops) were substituted for 30% of wheat by-products. All the rations with sorghum grain gave inferior results. In another experiment, 7, 14, 20 and 30% of sorghum substituted equal percentages of those wheat by-products, the best results having been obtained with 7% of Atlas and 23% of wheat by-products. Finally, in a third experiment, 5% of dried cow manure plus 10, 20 and 30% of ground Atlas sorghum were substituted for 5% of alfalfa hay meal plus, respectively, 10, 20 and 30% of wheat by-products. All results obtained from rations containing sorghum were as good as or better than that given by the ration including alfalfa hay meal and only wheat by-products. Under the conditions of this experiment, 5% of cow manure plus 12,25% of sorghum and 17,75% of wheat by-products is supposed to be the best combination to be recommended, this result having been attained through the study of the regression equation.

The author studied the application of chick's feces from battery brooder in the feeding of weaning pigs. He employed a basal ration and substituted 5%, 10% and 15% of that basal ration with similar proportions of chicks' feces. He did not observe statistical significance among the treatments. The results measured in terms of average daily gain and feed conversion indicated that the substitution of 5% to 10% by equal proportions of chicks' feces produced satisfactory results, the 5% proportion being the most advantageous.

Neste trabalho estuda-se, comparativamente, a percentagem de eclosão, pêso do pinto ao nascer e criabilidade das aves nascidas de ovos tipo E, A e B, provenientes de galinhas da raça New-Hampshire. O estudo abrange um total de 12 incubações, reunindo 300 ovos em cada uma delas, sendo 100 de cada tipo. Os pintos nascidos das duas últimas incubações foram criados até a idade de 8 semanas. A interpretação dos resultados mostrou: 1 - não haver diferença entre a percentagem de eclosão dos diferentes tipos de ovos estudados; 2 - uma relação definida entre o pêso do ôvo e o peso do pinto, na época da eclosão; 3 - os pintos provenientes dos ovos maiores apresentaram melhor desenvolvimento, maior ganho de pêso e menor índice de mortalidade.
