Will Lams, Purdue University) The importance of a liberal supply of pure fresh water for the dairy herd during the winter season should he given careful consideration ou every farm. Many herds are undersupplied at this time. There are more than eight gallons of water In each 100 pounds of milk. The cow must have water to assist in digesting the food which makes the milk. Then tiie body gives off moisture in addition to the other needs. It requires nearly seven pounds of water for each quart of milk which a cow produces. This must come from the feed or the water trough. During the winter season a large part of tiie ration consumed is dry roughage. This necessitates the drinking of larger amounts of water than If pasture were a part of the dally feed. When the water consumed Is insufficient the effect Is not long in reaching the milk pail. Watering tiie milking herd once daily is not often enough. Such a practice forces the cow to consume five, eight or perhaps ten gallons at one time. Although the stomach of the cow Is larger than that of any other of our farm animals, taking this large quantity of liquid Into tiie stomach at one time tends to interfere with the digestion of the feed. This is especially true if the temperature of the water is near tiie freezing point. Water at a low temperature must be raised to approximately body temperature before it can be assimilated by Heat must be absorbed tiie issues. from the body to accomplish this. Inasmuch as part of tiie feed which an animal eats goes for tiie production of heat and energy, the consumption of large amounts of cold water tends to increase the food supply used for this purpose.
