Facts
Dairymen
Should
Know
By Victor Plastow
Associate Agricultural Agent
Please reserve the date of
March 11, 1969 because that is
“DAIRY DAY”. This event will
be held at our new Farm and
Home Center in the large audi
torium starting at 9 00 a m and
continuing through until 300
p m The speakers will be as
follows: Dr. Samuel Guss
“Herd Health Problems Related
to Mastitis”; Dr. William Pierce
“Dairy Outlook”; Henry R.
Geismger—“lf the Cow Only
Knew”; Herbert Gilmore
“Latest Changes in the DHI A.
Program”; Dr Sam Guss—
“ Herd Health Problems Relating
to Breeding.” The program will
feature a milk promotional film
by the Atlantic Dairy Associa
tion We will again have several
exhibits on display of related
dairy interest
Now is the time to check your
ventilation system in the dairy
stable. Almost one-fourth of the
milk samples purchased from re
tail outlets in recent months bad
definite feed tastes This Off
flavor can be eliminated by feed
ing silage after milking and hav
ing adequate ventilation in hous
ing areas.
Feed supplemental vitamin E
to your cows, if the milk de
velops a cardboard like (oxidiz
ed) taste. Stored feeds contain
very little vitamin E, which, per
mits this flavor development in
milk, especially during Feb
ruary, March and April. Within
10 days after cows receive green
feed, correction is achieved.
Amounts to feed vary from 500
to 1000 I.U. per cow daily.
For the milk juggers, produc
ers and retailers of the dairy
industry, a dairy processor’s
conference, consisting of a series
of 4 meetings, will be held in
the new Farm and Home Center
starting on Thursday, March
27th and on each succeeding
Thursday for 4 weeks. Topics
to be covered include Process
ing Flavor, Quality, Cleaning
and Sanitizing and a question
and answer session.
Interest in free stall loose
housing for dairy cows continues
to dominate the farm building
field. Many dairymen are build
ing new systems, moving away
fiom the old barn When you
consider remodeling for 100
cows oi more, the old barn is
probably a veiy small part of
the finished system, but its use
may severely limit the choices
ot equipment and layout If you
can get the kind of feeding and
cow handling you want with the
old barn, then use it But if it
makes you go to a second rate
plan, then forget it for cows.
Maybe you can adapt it for
heifers, calves and maternity
pens. Also, be sure you pick a
plan and a building site that will
allow expansion of the herd. Re
member, there is more than one
way to get big in the dairy busi
