Article advises dairy farmers to raise cows rather than purchase to avoid disease and misjudgment. Emphasizes breeding from well bred purebred bulls, with high butterfat lines, to improve herd. Recommends breeding in November through January for fall freshening and notes Clemson College dairy division can help locate a good bull.
An article advises on preventing grassy tastes in milk by gradual pasture changes and timed grazing. It recommends supplementing with grain and dry roughage, using silage after initial pasture exposure, and adjusting grain by milk output. A Purdue dairy department blend of ground corn, bran, pata, and cottonseed meal is suggested to improve butter quality, with ample salt provided for pasture herds.
The Ohio Station Bulletin notes a cow in the station herd that has produced five sets of twins from seven calvings. Twinning is common in related cows, prompting talk of a family line that would yield many twins. Nine sets of twins recorded include one freemartin and three females.
Farmers are urged that good cows remain the key to profits as dairy production is unusually strong this year with cheap feed. Even scrubs may show returns, but the message emphasizes that cows with higher milk yield pay the biggest dividends.
Iowa State dairy experts warn many skim milks contain fat due to separators not skimming clean. Reports from across the state show fat content from one sixth to one fourth of a percent, savings possible by adjusting the cream screw on the separator. Higher fat tests lead to longer keeping quality and higher grades.
