Corn Can Be
If the price is favorable, bar
ley, grain sorghums and wheat
can replace part or all of the
corn used in swine rations, notes
a University of Delaware exten
sion livestock specialist.
Swine can be raised on a wide
range of feed profitably, as long
as the ration is balanced, says
Dr. Richard E. Fowler.

place up to 25 per cent of the
corn in market-hog rations and
up to 50 per cent of the corn in
brood sow rations. All small
grains, however, must be ground
to obtain maximum feed value.
Wheat and barley are the most
valuable small grains used in
swine rations. And many farm

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, August 28,1971 —
these crops, providing a good
supply of grain for feed.
Barley is 86 per cent as valu
able as corn, when used in swine
rations, says Fowler. A higher
fiber content accounts for the
slightly lower feed value.
Barley is also a little higher in
protein than corn —HVz per cent
versus 9 per cent for corn. But
the small grain is deficient in
salt, calcium and phosphorus,
trace minerals and vitamins—
particularly viamins A and D.
“Although the fiber content is
a little too high for small pigs,
barley is a good feed for pigs
weighing over 50 pounds. In ad
dition, it’s an excellent feed for
biood sows. It is deficient in
amino acids, so producers should
supplement barley rations with
extra protein,” says Fowler.
The feed value of wheat in
swine rations is nearly the same
as corn. Higher in protein con
tent than barley, wheat is only
three per cent fiber.
One disadvantage of using
wheat in swine feed is that it
tends to stick together and be
come “gummy” when finely
ground. “For best results, pro
ducers should be a corn-wheat
mixture,” suggests Fowler. “A
1:0 or 1:2 (corn to wheat) ratio
is recommended.”
Wheat is also low in salt, cal
cium and phosphorus, and amino
acid lysine, he adds. “Although
wheat is 13 per cent protein, a,
protein supplement should be
added to swine rations using this
grain to increase the amino acid
level.”
National Central
Bank Will Build
Near Lancaster
National Central Bank has
purchased 12.7 acres of land
near Lancaster for use as the
site of a new Operations Center,
according to John C. Tuten,
bank chairman.
The tract is on the northeast
corner of Commercial Avenue
and Rohrerstown Road in the
T & H Industrial Park, 4M:
miles from the Lancaster city
limits. The land was purchased
from the T & H Company, Inc.
Just off the Flory’s Mill exit
of Route 283, the site is central
ly located in the four county
area which the bank now serves.
National Central has 36 offices
in Berks, Dauphin, Lancaster
and York Counties.
The 77,620 square foot Opera
tions Center will provide office
space for certain of the bank’s
corporate divisions and will also
house its entire data processing
department. It is anticipated
that approximately 250 persons
will be employed at the Center
when it is completed in Novem
ber, 1972.
Corporate divisions to be lo
cated in the new Center include
Audit. Credit Card, Financial
Planning, Marketing, Operations
and Purchasing, Personnel and
Security. /
A communications center,
print shop, customer service de
partment, record retention and
micro-film library and several
conference rooms will also be in
the Center.
One section of the building will
contain a large room which is
to be divided by sliding' parti
tions into a classroom, meeting
room and employee lunch room.
When the partitions are re
moved, the nrea will accomodate
450 people for meetings.
The parking lot in the rear of
the building will hold 300 cars.
A visitor’s parking, area for 35
cars will be located" in the front
of the Center.
Lester H. Herr, chairman of
the executive committee of
National Central Bank, is chair
man of the Operations Center
building committee.
