SOUR SKIM MILK FOR CALVES

The Weekly News Letter, printed
by the Department of Agriculture saws
that in summer time calves do as VOL,
on sour skim milk as they do on sweat
which will be interesting news to
farmers who have hitherto been kent
from raising calves by the expense of
keeping the milk sweet in hot weather.
This expense experiment carried out
by the department indicate to be quite
unnecessary. The calves will make as
rapid gains on sour skim milk. In
winter, it is true, this is not quite so
satisfactory. 1t chills the calves and
some of them drink it with great re-
luctance. Very young calves have
been known to refuse it altogether.
On the other hand, of course. it is
much easier to keep the milk sweet
in winter.
In calling the attention to farmers
to these facts, however, the depart
ment at the same time emphasizes an
important percaution. Unless the
milk is produced and kept under clean
ly conditions, it may become contain
mated with disease producing bacteria
Farmers should therefore. allow the
milk to sour quickly and then feed it
without delay.
In the course of these experiments
sour skim milk was fed to % calves,
Holsteins, Jerseys and Guernseys, at
different seasons of the year. In no
case did itcause digestive disturbances
even when the change from sweet to
sour milk was made abruptly when the
calves were. only a few days old.
Moreover, no evil results followed the
alternate use of sweet and sour. 1t
seems therefore that the common
idea that sour milk leads to scours is
quite unfounded.
The calves it was was found, did
not like the sour milk as we'll as the
sweet, but the majority of cases soon
became accustomed to it. The aver
sion however, increased when the milk
was fed them at low temerature.
