We, GUSTAF ALFRED BRINCK, of No. 46 Skepps Cron Stockholm in the
Kingdom of Sweden, Merchant, an: ALBERT WILHELM REHNSTRÖM, Dairy
Instructor of Mülhammar near Rekarne, Sweden do hereby declare the nature of
our said invention and in what manner the same is to be performed to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-
In the dairy trade an abundance of skimmed milk is obtained for which there is
no demand nor can the whole quantity of milk be employed for preparing cheese nor
used as food for man or beast.
The present invention has for its object to provide for the increased application of
the surplus of skimmed milk obtained at the dairies to the preparation from the
same of a substantial fodder for milk-cows as well as for cattle to be fattened. The
said fodder being prepared in the form of cakes from the solid caseine contained in
the skim milk or in lieu of cakes the said fodder may be formed into any other
convenient exterior shapes, to which strong fodder the caseine contained in the skim
milk conjointly with other matters is used. In this way the fodder will contain a
very large amount of nitrogeniferous ingredients, which are rather advantageous to
the animal body and will moreover promote soundness of constitution and an
augmented secretion of milk.
-
This fodder is prepared in the following manner by employing the ingredients
stated below.
Of the skim milk, cheese curds (caseine) are prepared in the common way, the
superfluous water of these curds being removed by evaporation so that the mass
becomes dry, it is then crushed or pulverized. This pulverized mass is then mixed
with suitable cereals, either crushed or ground to meal, or with other similar materials
such as Indian corn, rice, and the like together with crushed oil-cakes or wastes left
at the pressing of vegetable oils. The proportion of mixture between these ingredients
can be varied in many ways and some bone fodder powder in a very fine state may
also be mixed as being of a great importance for the development of the animal body
as well as for the soundness of the ossification and also favorable to the milk secretion.
The ingredients mixed together are then subjected to pressure in order to form it into

page_text: cakes or other suitable exterior shapes to facilitate the storage and the transport of the
fodder. The product, being thus brought to a solid determined shape are then sent
from the manufactory either whole or crushed.
In feeding the cattle the procedure is the same as with common fodder cakes or
similar fodder.
The composition of the fodder cakes is determined so as to be most digestable by
the cattle.
The composition of "caseine fodder cakes" which has been found most suitable is
as follows:-
L
100
We may however change the composition with other vegetable matters, to keep or
remove the mineral matters, but retaining always a greater or smaller proportions of
dried curd in the fodder cakes, this being the most characteristic constituent of the
same.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this invention
and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is
First. The method or process of preparing fodder cakes, the characteristic
constituent of which is caseine, in which method or process the curds (caseine)
prepared from milk is dried, crushed and mixed partly with waste left at the vegetable
oil manufacture and partly with meal, this mixture being then pressed in the shape of
fodder cakes as above described.
Second. Fodder cakes, the characteristic constituent of which is caseine, and
prepared from curds (cascine) obtained from milk and after its drying and pulveri-
zation mixed partly with waste left at vegetable oil manufacture and partly with
meal, which mixture is then pressed into the form of cakes.
