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 …

UAES Bulletins

This bulletin contains the detailed results of two years' work along the lines indicated, and a summary of the work of four years as far as it has been carried along these same lines.

It was originally intended to put three pigs in each division, but just at the time of beginning the experiment it was difficult to procure enough animals of the proper age and size, so that the lots contained but …

This Bulletin reports the continuation of the study of the best nutritive ratio for horses under moderate work.

Bulletin No. 30 - Narrow Vs. Wide Nutrituve Rations For Horses, J. W. Sanborn

UAES Bulletins

In the third annual report of this Station (1892) the result of feeding wide and narrow nutritive rations to horses was given. This trial was favorable to the narrow nutritive ration. This ration was made up of clover, oats and wheat", while the wide ration was made up of timothy and corn. The trial ran through the summer, when the influence of what has been termed heating food, like corn, might be less effective than in the winter season. Many believe that the more varieties of food given the better the result, as the palatableness of food, it is claimed, …
