Animal Has Necessary Material
to Make Milk,

"Records Of cow-testing associations

that makes the profit Often the man
who Is keeping ten cows would make
more profit" says c. H. Eckles, chief
Of the dairy division at University
Farm. "if he sold two or three Of the
poorest and gave all the feed to the
others.
Owners should see, first Of ALL"
says Doctor Eckles, shat the dairy
COW has the necessary raw material
from which to make milk. II requires
. long experience for some cattle own
ers to realize that II pays to feed q
COW well. The fact is that the dairy
COW Is milk factory and, like all fac
tories. requires considerable Of what
is called In connection with business
enterprises overhead charges
''The COW first takes out enough
from the ration to maintain her body,
and this Is about the same whether
she Is milking heavy or giving only a
few pounds. She can produce milk
only with that part Of her ration that
she receives above what is required
to support life. A COW Of medium
quality uses at least half Of full ra-
ton to support her body, and the
second half of her ration is the only
part she can use to produce milk. II
she does not receive a full ration, she
does the only thing possible to do
cuts the milk flow to at the feed"

BEST FEEDS FOR DAIRY COW
Roughage Animals viii Eat and
Then Some Grain.

The feeds for dairy cows may be
divided into two classes, rOughages
end concentrates, says Prof. A. q.
Baer of the department of dairying Of
Oklahoma A. and NJ. college, Stillwa-
ter Silage and alfalfa hay. cane hay
and prairie hay are all rough feeds
and contain, with the exception Of al
falfa hay, only small amount Of pro-
tein. Some grains, and especially
those containing a high protein con.
tent, should be fed. The cheapest pro.
tein feeds are cOttonseed meal and
oilmeal.
A good general rule which can be
used as guide for feeding dairy cows
is to feed all the roughage the cows
will eat and then feed the grain mix
ture according to the milk flow, feed
ing Jersey cows one-third as many
pounds Of grain per day as the COW
gives milk per day. Holstein cows. II
fed one-fourth as many pounds Of
grain as milk produced per day, will
usually keep In full milk flow on this
amount Of grain.
