Minerals arc very important. Dairy
cows and all animals, except those
which eat meat, require a large j
amount of salt. It should be avail-
able at all times to dairy cattle. If
the salt is given to them with the
grain the proper proportion is about
one pound to each one hundred
pounds of grain mixture.
Tiie grinding of grain may help
to digest it. especially where there
are seeds. Sometimes as high 'as
20 per cent of the grain seeds will
pass through the digestive tract of
the cow untouched, unless , it is
ground The' roughages are easier
to feed when they are cut up. The
cow will cat more of it if it is in \
small pieces, although -th$ cutting
does not have any particular Effect
on digestion. Sometimes grain is
soaked before it is fed A bran mash
made of wheat bran mixed with
warm water is frequently given to
cows especially before and after !
freshening.
An interesting two-year experi-
ment is being conducted at Cornell
University for the purpose of finding
| the protein content of various grain
| mixtures. Three lots( ^pf cows are
| being used and they afe being fed
rations of 16. 20. and 24 per cent
protein,__respectively. It might be .
interesting to know the proportions
of feed that are beirfg used i-n this
test. The hay for each animal is
fed at the rate of one pound for
every one hundred pounds of live
weight. Silage is at the rate of three
pounds to every one hundred pounds
of live weight. Grain is at the rate,
of one pound to every three and
one-half pounds >pints) of milk.
But having determined the proper i
i quantities of food each cow should !
have, be sure she eats all you give j
her! If she does not clean up her j
box .it may not be a sign of over- i
v - Tj. feeding but an indication that the
| feed is not palatable. You will, there- J
r- fore, have to do as mothers do tdr j
