In one test, a pound of salt saved 213 pounds of 'grain in feeding hogs in dry lots. Prolonged lack of salt brings loss of appetite, haggard appearance, lusterless eyes, rough coat, I decline in weight and even death, it is declared. The more roughage fed, especially alfalfa, the greater the need for salt. Slop-fed animals and those on early' spring pasture eat four to six times as much salt as do animals fed dry rations. Horses and mules perspiring teely during warm weather require several times as much as they do during cool weather.
