This bulletin describes the results of feeding trials conducted with lambs at the Dominion Experimental Station, Lethbridge, Alberta from 1911 until 1934, designed to determine the most economical finishing of market lambs through the use of rations of the greatest efficiency and lowest cost. Also included as a supplement is a report on the procedure employed, results obtained and conclusions drawn from a fourteen-year trial with the system of sheep production in which sheep were pastured on the ranges of the Forest Reserve near Coleman, Alberta during the summer months and cared for during the fall, winter, and spring months under irrigation farm conditions.
