At Lancaster Stock Yards, one
of the first things he requested
was information on the use of
Stilbesterol—Gffecffts, gains, prof
its and other facts of its use.
When asked about his organiza
tion, M. Peruchon explained he
helped found the bureau after
World War II when feed quality
after the occupation was very
bad.
“During and after the war, we
did not have' a free exchange of
information on feeding, diseases
and husbandry ”
“We were late and we had to
improve In this time our govern
ment understod nothing about the
livestock industry, so we had to
organize by ourselves. We were
nble to collect money for re
search with feed manufacturers
and breeders who were making
their own feed ”
We have received much techni
cal assistance from the United
States, including a quantity of
books from the War Department,
the University of Maryland, and
the USDA. With these books we
started teaching members pf our
group ”
‘ We are very indebted to Dr
Morley A. Jull, of the Umv of
Maryland. I think without his
help we would not be success
ful.”

it Ours is a private organization
for all French feed manufactui-
Dunng the war I studied use
of by-products of all kinds for
use as livestock feed, since the
Ceimans took all our corn and
vheat. but left the milo. They
didn’t know what it was.
We made feed of low quality

sometimes meat scraps and fish

of our poultry.”
“Even since the war we have
tried to use by-products to make
feed, since we are so short* of
some kinds. We have tried to use
remains from the squeezing of
grapes for wine, and even the
v.ne prunings from grapes. This
is made into a flour-like feed,
fermented to increase digestibil
ity but we got very poor re
sults It' was no good for hogs
and poultry and very little for
cattle ”
This is why I am here, to learn
what I can of your methods and
