The Further Development of Milk Replacements for Dairy Calves^1,2

The Pennsylvania Agricultural Experiment Station, State College, Pa.

ABSTRACT

Ground raw soybeans were not satisfactory when used at a 40 per cent level in the formula studied. All calves in a group of six died between the 29th and 58th day of age. Soybean oil meal and corn gluten meal were of equal value as a source of protein in these milk replacement formulas. Rations containing 50 per cent dried skimmilk gave consistently better results than those containing 20 per cent or less of this ingredient. Dried corn distillers' solubles effectively replaced dried brewers' yeast.
