140 d - 2- According to the potato balance, 53,000 Wg per tonne are available for feeding. * Both balance sheets are likely to contain certain reserves that will remain on farms and will be fed mainly there. The average hectolitre yields used for the cereals balance are based on the self-evaluation of the farmers + 10% = ll.9 dz /ha and on the 4th harvest estimate at 12.3 dz. The potato balance is expected to yield a hect value of llldz. If the yield is assumed to be only 4 dz higher, a further quantity of lo.oo Wg is obtained. These quantities of fodder cereals and potatoes are available for feeding the pigs. The feeding of the cattle population is secured in this year's harvest of rough fodder, fodder beet and so on in a higher x measure than in the 2nd year of the war. As a result of the compulsory deliveries, a substantial part of the reduced feed users, especially old cows and spoiled young cattle, was fed to the slaughter, so that the number of animals, but in the putter-making process, should be maintained in a better feed condition, as in the previous year. In the case of the conversion of animal production v the 1,500,000 pigs to be slaughtered over the year, of which 500,000 to 600,000 domestic visions. For the 900,000 to 1,100,000 commercial slaughters, the quantities of fodder cereals and potatoes calculated above, plus the reserves remaining in the holdings, are sufficient. (This opinion could only be given until the figures of this enumeration were available in order to be able to take account of the latest developments.) This increase in the pig population is gratifying and can probably be the first success of the contin-
