Salt for Dairy Cow

The carving of the dairy cattle for common salt is based upon a real need of the body. The dairy cow uses salt in proportion to the feed consumed, in other words, the high producer will need more than the low producer. The most common plan of supplying salt is to keep it before the animals at all times, either in the form of rock salt or ordinary stock salt. Other dairymen prefer to mix it with grain usually at the rate of 1 pound per 100 pounds of grain mixture -W. H. Riddell.
