COW FEED FROM SAwDUsT NOW

Hydrolized sawdust as a part Of a
ration for cows is apparently giving
satisfactory results in Wisconsin.
The Forest Service of the United
states Department of Agriculture re-
ports that cows at the Agricultural
College of that State are doing as well
on ration consisting of one-third
sawdust as they did when their feed
was only one-fourth wood meal
That is to say, they are keeping up
their weight and their milk pro-
auction and show no i'll effects from
the diet.
Inc Bureau of Animal Industry is
considering the proposal of the For
est service laboratory TO start feed
ing trials with dairy animals in
winch the wood product will form
part or the ration and the tests will
extend Cor an entire Near at least.
The hydrolized- wood feed for these
cows will be made at the Laboratory
so far all the stock feed has been
made from white pine sawdust'
other soft woods. particularly the
western species, will be tried in the
near future.
