The costs were therefore higher.^ The costs other than feed vary from $21 to $28 in the dif- ferent results here quoted. The feed costs vary from $41 to $ 58. In the States east of Ohio feed is higher in price, so that this cost is likely to be more. In some irrigated regions where alfalfa hay is very cheap, the feed cost may be lower. Where skim-milk is not available the feed cost is somewhat higher, but need not be prohibitive, as is shown on pages 116 to 118. 1 Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station, Bulletin Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Eckles, C.
