Bulletin No. 127 - Report Of The Richmond-Lewiston Cow Testing Association, W. E. Carroll

UAES Bulletins

The function of all domestic animals is to utilize the coarse rough reeds and transform them into something useful to mankind, either food, clothing, or energy. The animal thus acts as a concentrator for low grade ores, so to speak. The class of animals which will produce most human food, clothing, or energy for man from a given amount of feel--other cost being equal--is the most economical and the one which will remain longest with us as population becomes more dense and the question of food supply becomes keener.

Experiments have shown the dairy cow to be probably the most …

Bulletin No. 96 - Care Of Milk On The Farm And The Manufacture Of Butter And Cheese, R. W. Clark

UAES Bulletins

Dairying is one of the most profitable lines of agriculture in Utah. Ever since the establishment of the dairy industry in the State, the demand for Utah butter and cheese has been strong and prices have averaged good. A good article will always sell at top price; a poor article may sell at a good price when the demand is strong, but it will not sell at a good price, if at all, when the demand is weak. High prices are undesirable at any time if they create a tendency to put out a poor article. The success of any …

Bulletin No. 57 - By-Products Of The Dairy, F. B. Linfield

UAES Bulletins

Soon after becoming connected with the Station, the writer, from observations made in various parts of the State, was impressed with the necessity for investigation looking to the profitable disposal of the by-products of the dairy, both at the factory and on the farm. The common method at the factories seemed to be to feed hogs on milk or whey alone, and where grain was fed, it was only given to finish the hog for market. This method of management did not appear to be successful, for it generally took the whole season to get one crop of hogs ready …

Bulletin No. 43 - 1. Dairy Herd Record For 1984-95. 2. Winter Feeding Experiments With Dairy Cows. 3. Some Suggestions On The Building And Equipment Of Factories., F. B. Linfield

UAES Bulletins

The Dairy Department of this Station was fully organized by June 1894. The latter part of 1893 and early part of 1894 were devoted to fitting up the dairy rooms and getting the' necessary appliances and machinery in place. As our dairy herd was too small for experimental work, it was decided during the spring of 1894 to increase the number to fifteen head. The selection and purchasing of those cows were left to the writer.

Bulletin No. 42 - Creaming Experiments, F. B. Linfield

UAES Bulletins

During the summer of 1894, before our hand separator was fitted with power attachment, the writer found it scarcely practicable to run the separator, so that most of the milk was skimmed by deep setting. Although the usual methods of procedure were practiced, it was found impossible to get results that were satisfactory, or that would approximately compare with those reported from many eastern stations. Because of this and because ' the larger proportion of our dairymen use some method of setting, it was decided to undertake a series of experiments that might throw some light upon the subject. As …
