For example, a basal ration might be madeup of 35 pounds of corn silage, 8 pounds of rowen Uay,and 3 pounds each of cornmeal and wheat bran, whichwould supply pounds of protein and a fuel value of33,712 calories. To this coidd he added a richer grainmixture composed of two piarts of gluten meal anil onepart of cotton-seed meal, the amount of this being variedaccording to the milk yield of the cow. Two pounds ofthis mixture would bring the ration up to jioundsof protein and 20,999 calories, which would meet the re-quirements of cows giving from 12 to pounds of milka day, while 4 pounds would bring it up to )(l |iiMuids ofurotein and ^li calories id heat, suitable for the cows.
