REGULATE FEED BY
MILK PRODUCTION
Cows Should BE Fed in Proportion TO
) YteId Of Milk.

Every dairyman should find out the
profitable and improbable cows in his
herd, and replace the latter by others
that will yield profitable returns for
the amount of feed consumed. This
may easily be done by weighing the
total yield Of each COW per day; then
feeding each animal according to the
amount she produces in the "a hours.
For example, it has been carefully
estimated that for COW to do her
best, she should receive one pound OF
concentrated feed, with roughage in
addition, for each three and one-half
pounds of milk she produces per day,
which is usually sufficient for her
own upkeep as well as her production
of milk.
As an illustration, let us say that
cow produces 36 pounds of milk per
day; she ought to receive, approx
mately, ten pounds of concentrated
feed per day. On the other hand, If
her daily yield should be only 18
pounds of milk per day, she would be
entitled to only half the amount of
feed that the 36-pound COW should
have. If a cow should go up in her
production, 80 should the amount of
feed in the proportion mentioned.
The rule, then, of one pound of con-
centrated feed for each three and one
half pounds Of milk a COW gives per
day will be found very useful to dairy
men in getting better yields of milk
and In economizing in their feed; and
not only so, but It would give a clue
to the poor producing cows of the
herd and lead to their being supplant.
ed by more profitable animals. Yet
how many are feeding the 1S.pound
cow as much as the 3e-pound animal
should have, and the good producer
only as much as the poor one is en-
titled to? Regulation Of this matter
of feeding would not only save feed,
but would increase the production OF
milk and It's products, so much need
ed at the present time.-W. H. Dial.
rymple, Department Of Veterinary
Science, Louisiana State University.
