FEEDING FOR MARKET 137 
But if it is at all possible, some milk should 
be given if only enough to soak up a few pieces 
of bread. 
There are several milk mashes upon the 
market designed entirely for rabbit feeding and 
if you cannot have fresh milk in the ration, 
it would be a good idea to go to a feed store 
and buy this rabbit mash to feed at noon, or 
to mix in with your other mash and feed it 
at the morning feeding. 
Use intelligence in handling your youngsters. 
The feeding of market animals is something 
that requires a great deal of study and thought. 
You will find men spending their lives trying 
to solve the problem successfully. Watch the 
costs and try to feed as cheap a ration as 
possible, but at the same time do not sacrifice 
the elements necessary for the proper develop- 
ment of the stock. You are producing meat 
to eat and you want to do it efficiently. That 
is never done by cheating the animal you are 
feeding. .
