PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED
Digestive disorders and a slight transient de
pression in appetite in newly-arrived cattle in the ~
feedlot have been problems for a number of
years. There are numerous causes:
The sudden change in type of feed, for example, from grass
and milk to grain, milage and/or hay and a protein supple
ment. . ■>
Too rapid pushing of grain concentrates.
Too much protein
Not enough
Too much high quality roughage.
Unpalatable feed.
Too much green chopped legume or grass silage.
Feeding softer immature corn. If not moldy, soft corn is
satisfactory, hut animals must be accustomed to it gradu

Dried Flower Arrangements
When making dried flower
arrangements, keep containers
natural. They may be a slab
of wood, a brick, or an earth
enware container. Try to ex
press the feeling of autumn,
the casualness of a “design of
nature ” Or you can use fall
vegetables arranged in a mar
ket basket. Try for the feeling
of an abundant market place.
Some materials you can use
for fall arrangements include
—Grasses - fountain, pampas,
timothy.
—Grains - barley, field corn,
oats, lye, wheat, sorghum.
—B ernes - barberry, bay ber
ry, black alder, bittersweet.
—Vegetables - artichokes, red
onions, hot peppers, goinds,
purple-top turnips, purple cab
bage.

half. That way you’ll get those
meaty center slices. A “ham

Too much green chopped corn causing green corn poison

Too much silage fed to lighter weight calves. Calves do not
have the digestive capacity to obtain their total digestible
nutrients from a full feed of silage alone.

In addition, in connection with supplements containing an
antibiotic, there is an adjustment of the rumen microflora

rumen function and reduce appetite for 24 to 36 hours
after the initial feeding. Softer feces also may he noticed.
This effect is transient and after 36 to 48 hours the appetite
should be restored to normal.
