Calf Meal Studies

I. Laboratory Experiments in the Improvement of Physical Condition

II. Feeding Experiments with Cooked and Uncooked Meal^*

Massachusetts Agricultural Experiment Station, Amherst, Massachusetts

ABSTRACT

Conclusions from the Feeding Trials

1. Cooking reasonably fine calf meals, although it changes their physical condition, by increasing the dispersion of the solids, does not appear to exert any favorable effect on growth. Very fine grinding of calf meals for feeding was not undertaken because if its impracticability, hence its effect as compared with cooking has not been measured.
   
2. Digestibility of a calf meal is not significantly affected by cooking.
