Feeding dairy cows balance of roughage and concentrates
The bulletin explains three essential food groups for dairy cows roughage concentrates and succulent foods. It notes lucerne or clover hay with substitutions like corn stalks or straw and corn, the impact of roughage on concentrate needs and the cost benefit of home grown feed. It cites Wolff standards and argues for moderate protein levels to balance costs and milk output.

THY FARM TEAM

The Guernsey Cow and Its Uses in Dairy Practice
The Guernsey cow, closely related to Jersey, is described as robust yet docile with milk yielding similar to Jersey. It scores high for butterfat and butter color, with strong profit in tests at Pan-American Exposition. Advice on dairy economics covers weighing milk, records, clean stalls, deep wells, enthusiasm, and maintenance for profitable herds. It also recounts David Lubin’s Institute proposal and its reception by Europe and the U.S. government.

Trials of Grass in Australia Show Drought Resistant Fodder
A Brazilian grass Melinus minutiflora tested at Hawkesbury College and Grafton Farm NSW shows promise for Victoria’s drier climate. Experimentalists report tall dense growth, short broad leaves, and brownish hairy sheaths. It resists drought and yields soft velvety grass, similar to Fat Grass, with potential as fodder.

Complete and Incomplete Manures in South Australia Trials
A five year study at Saddleworth and Wilmington compares complete and incomplete manures. Mineral superphosphate with potash and soda raises yields modestly, while bone super offers more advantage over mineral blends. Results differ from other locations and show no clear yield justification for extra cost of complete manures.
