Abstract

The subcutaneous implantation of a pellet containing 22.5 mg. bacitracin in two-day old crossline pigs had no effect on forty-two-day weaning weights or subsequent feed lot performance whether or not the post-weaning ration contained 7.5 mg. aureomycin hydrochloride per pound total ration.
