Farmers are advised that fall freshening calves gain best with early colostrum, controlled milk, grain and hay, clean stables, and sunlit housing. Begin with whole milk, later add skim milk, bright hay, and small amounts of grain as calves grow, ensuring sanitary conditions and gradual grass transition.
A USDA survey shows in 1928 about 76 million pounds of surplus skim milk were used to make concentrated sour skim milk at 27 dairy plants nationwide. Developed by A. Rogers, head of dairy research, the product is sold mainly as poultry feed and provides profits for creameries with condensing equipment.
The coming year should see ample feed with about 400 pounds more grain feed per animal unit than the five year average. Hay per animal unit will be the largest since 1920 except for last year and 1924. However dairymen face a shortage of legume hay, stressing protein hay supplies and likely raising protein supplement prices despite grain abundance.
With corn and corn by products and oats and perhaps barley, all lower in protein, farmers tend to feed low protein rations. Under these conditions cows are overfed on protein-poor seeds, causing too much grain consumption and too low milk production. A balanced ration aligned to production can save grain and raise output.
The dairyman should place young calves in the warmest part of the barn away from frequently used doors. Exposure can cause a cold, which reduces feed intake and stunts growth, increasing susceptibility to other diseases. pneumonia often follows severe colds and is a serious calf herd risk.
