To Increase the Fat in Milk. 99 



therefore economical on the liberal ration as compared with the 

 scanty one. 



Summary. 



In a herd of poorly fed cows an abundant ration easily digestible 

 and rather nitrogenous in character and continued through two 

 years, resulted in an average increase of one-fourth of one per cent 

 of fat in the milk (or a percentage increase of about six per cent) . 



This was accompanied by an increase of about 50 per cent in total 

 amount of milk and fat produced. 



The increased production was secured economically so far as the 

 food cost of milk and fat is concerned.
