‘Pie RURAL NEW-YORKER 
Ration with Beets 
I would like a good dairy ration for my 
eight grade Guernsey cows. We have 
cornstalks which I run through feed cut¬ 
ter; peas and oats cut for hay; good hay, 
some clover mixed; plenty of beets, which 
I run through root cutter; molasses; and 
grains at. these prices: Bran, 100 lbs., 
$2.15; ground oats, $2.50; cornmeal. 
$2.50; gluten feed, $3; oilmeal, $3; brown 
middlings, $2.15. Would you recommend 
cutting the peas and oats with the corn 
fodder and feeding together? We put 
the molasses on the hay for noon feed. 
w. sr. 
There is an advantage in running the 
cornstalks through your feed cutter and 
in slicing the beets, but nothing would be 
gained by undertaking to cut up the oats 
and peas or the hay. Dairy cows need a 
generous amount of roughage and bulk, 
and I am sure that the oat-and-pea-hay 
will serve quite as well when fed in the 
form of straight hay. The addition of 
molasses to the corn fodder would increase 
its palatability. and make it possible for 
the animals to consume more of this ma¬ 
terial each day. I would suggest the fol¬ 
lowing grain ration: 200 lbs. of wheat 
bran, 500 lbs. ground oats, 500 lbs. corn- 
meal. 400 lbs. gluten, 200 lbs. oilmeal. 100 
lbs. cottonseed meal, 100 lbs. middlings, 
30 lbs. salt. 
I would let the animals have all of the 
roughage that they will consume with 
relish, and if you have plenty of beets 
they could be fed advantageously and 
safely up to 40 or 50 lbs. per animal per 
day. Of course, the grain should be fed 
in proportion to the production of milk. 
Corn, at the present moment, is cheaper 
than hay, pound for pound, and, since it 
is one of the very best feeds available, it 
should be used in generous quantities. Cot¬ 
tonseed meal likewise is perhaps the 
cheapest source of protein ; but, since you 
have mentioned gluten and oilmeal, I 
have used these largely in this mixture.
