ABSTRACT
Blood meal and blood flour appeared to be of comparable value for growth in dairy calves in these milk replacements. Adding fish solubles or dried corn fermentation solubles resulted in no increase in growth rate over the control ration. A ration containing 65 per cent dried skimmilk produced more rapid growth rates than other complex mixtures. Red dog flour and corn gluten meal did not appear to effectively replace dried whey and dried skimmilk in these rations. A combination of 10 per cent ethyl solubles and 5 per cent butyl molasses solubles with soybean oil meal caused excessive scours and retarded growth. Ethyl solubles at levels of 5 or 10 per cent replaced dried whey effectively in these trials.
