HOLSTEIN-FRIESIAN CATTLE. 



Here we have eight pounds of grass to six pounds of other feeds. By using 

 more of the grass and of the malt sprouts, or by using part clover, we can get 

 a ration having the proper nutritive ratio, and in which one pound of stover is 

 set against one pound of other feeds. The reader can see that, by using the 

 simple plan I have given, he can form any desired ration. 



Now, if linseed cake or cottonseed cake was comparatively cheaper than 

 malt sprouts I would use it. Or, rather than pay high prices for any of them, 

 I would use a ration having a ratio of 1:7 or even 1:8. The point is to keep both 

 ratio and cost in view.
