Show A. C. U. NOTES Skim Milk Skim milk is one of the most important impor-tant products of the farm if fed in proper prop-er quantities. There is no better system sys-tem regulator on the market not excepting ex-cepting wheat or bran. Constipation vanishes when it is fed in sufficent quantity and all bowel complaints are bettered. It has about the same effect on pigs and chickens as oats has on horses. Practically all the protein or the flesh building part of the whole milk is left in the skim mil. This protein is necessary nec-essary in every ration especially in the feeding of yi ung stock. Considered from the standpoint of fertilizing and feeding, protein is the most expensive portion of the milk. When you purchase pur-chase mill and other expensive feeds the price paid depends upon the amount of protein they contain. If pigs have been fed on corn for a long time until they have lost their appetite for it, skim milk, even if fed in only small quantities will help very much in remedying reme-dying this condition. |
