These Cows
Just Don't Quit!
Donald says, “If someone would tell me the things that I’ve ex
perienced these past two years, I would think they’re stretching the
truth a good bit But these are the facts Our cows peak higher and
hold production longer. From 1962 until 1973 we only had two cows
to produce over 20,000 lbs. of milk in 305 days As of May 1975
there are 14 cows in our herd predicted to finish over 20,000 lbs of
milk.
We still have some problems now and then but when we do we
get the veterinarian to treat them and they respond very quickly.
On March 8,1975 a virus hit our herd and 75 percent of our cows
were running fevers between 103 degrees & 106 degrees. The cows
were off feed and way down in milk. Things didn't look too bright. 1
asked our veterinarian if they would come back up m production.
He said he didn’t think they would. One week later the cows were
back on feed and milk production was nearly back to where it was
before. I never saw cows respond like they did.”

we will have to sell some Heifers because we won’t have room for them.
