Ingredients of Dry Ration for Cattle Calves
The dry cow ration should resemble prior feeds to avoid fattening. Hominy replaces corn to cut fat producing elements while bran and oats supply minerals for unborn calves. If high protein feeds were used, switch rations to rest the digestive system before calving. A small amount of oilmeal acts as a laxative to reduce milk fever risk. Eight to ten pounds of hay or corn stover provides roughage and aids digestion.
Separating Calf from Cow for Colostrum Training
The calf should stay with the dam for a day or two to receive colostrum. If milk is rich, dilute with lower butterfat milk. Teach calves to drink by letting it suck an attendant’s finger, then withdraw the finger as milk reaches the mouth. Patience is essential for the feeder.
Spray mixtures for cows noted to repel flies

Building Up A Dairy Herd
The use of a purebred bull is the cheapest way of building up a herd. In selecting a bull too much stress can not be laid to his ancestry. The greater the number of good producers in his pedigree, the better the chances for stamping desirable daily characteristics upon his offspring.
