This makes a large bulk of palatable and nutritious material. And do not forget the salt. Yet, after all, June pasturage is the ideal cow food. It possesses succu- lence, volume, nutrition. The nutritive ratio of Kentucky blue grass (green grass) is about i: 7, and of red clover short pasture. about 1:5. Together they make rich pasturage.
