Feed Your Cows Well.

1T sometimes happens that farmers
are in possession of extra good cows
but not realizing the amount OF feed
required by COWS giving large yield
they are soon allowed to shrink in
milk because the feed given does not
provide sufficient nutriment. While
COWS in good condition can, for a
time, give more milk than the feed
provides, by drawing upon the fat
stored in the body, yet if the grain is
not gradually increased as the COWS
lose in body weight there will soon
follow an abnormal shrinkage in milk
flow and also a decrease in the quality
of milk Welded"
