On the other hand, those cows which; have the low capacity will be seen to be the least desirable members of the herd. The surplus which is shown in the diagram is what is not needed for milk production. The cow has it in her nature to store this surplus feed away as fat.

Amount of Grain and Roughness to Feed. One of the difficult problems that confronts the practical feeder is how It can herds by observing how much milk | the cow is producing and whether | The cow being adapted by nature for consuming bulky feeds does not feel satisfied unless she has sufficient bulk to the ration given at all times. it acts as a reserve supply to be drawn on again when feed is not sup- plied in sufficient amounts. However, it is neither economical nor desirable to fatten dairy animals with the ex- pensive feeds that are fed to dairy cows. The feed should be reduced, in a case like the one shown, until the surplus is removed and the body weight of the animal will be practi- cally constant. In every large herd we find errors both of overfeeding and underfeeding. The heavy produc- ing cows are being underfed, and the light producing cows are being over- fed and allowed to aecumulate fat. ‘We must expect that a cow will lose weight in the first few weeks of her milking period, but after this period is past there ‘us no reason why she need to change much in weight for several months, and this is the period when the greater part of the milk pro- duction is secured. It is necessary that the animal gain in weight during the latter end of the milking on account of the de- velopment of the foetus, and since it is natural for the animal to carry ; = 8 i ; é i i FULL RATION.
