Ration Needs Protein 
I wish information on feeding cows 
for milk. Feeds on hand are barley, oats 
and wheat, mixed hay, dry stalks and 
silage. What should I mix with these 
grains for best results? w. M. B. 
New York. 
All the feed that you have mentioned, 
oats, barley and wheat, mixed feed, are 
carbohydrate or energy-producing feeds. 
What is necessary is to supplement these 
products with such protein carriers as 
gluten meal, cottonseed meal or linseed 
meal. The selection of these products 
should be based upon their current prices. 
Bear in mind that the better grades of 
cottonseed meal carry 43 per cent of pro¬ 
tein. that linseed meal carries about 35 
per cent, and that gluten feed carries 24 
per cent, and the gluten meal about 40 
per cent. 
Assuming that your cows are of aver¬ 
age production, that is, that they arc 
yielding something like 10 quarts of 
milk per day, you will find the following 
ration suitable for your purposes : Ground 
barley. 200 lbs. ; ground oats, 200 lbs.; 
ground wheat, 150 lbs. ; gluten meal, 200 
lbs. ; cottonseed meal, 100 lbs.; linseed 
meal, 150 lbs. We are assuming that y m 
have about an equal amount of the bar¬ 
ley, oats and ground wheat, but for av¬ 
erage conditions these can be interchanged 
and selected upon the basis of their sup¬ 
ply. 
Feed the cows all of the silage and the 
roughage that they will clean up with 
relish ; 100 lbs. of this grain ration ought 
to produce 300 lbs. of milk. F. c. M.
