Among the many things a stock-
man must know, to enable him to
finish off perfect* beef cattle, is the
mineral requirements of the ani
mals’ diet. Body composition, proper
functioning of organs, tooth and
bone structure, muscle and
building are all associated
fat
with
minerals such as calcium, phosphor
ous, sodium, potassium, chlorine,
magnesium, iron, sulphur, iodine,
manganese, copper, zinc and cobalt.
Of this long list of minerals, the
two most important are calcium and
prosphorous. Actually, these two
alone have been measured as ninety
per cent of the ashes Of a burned
carcass.
Fortunately, it doesn’t take a
veterinarian to spot cattle suffering
from lack of minerals. Stock chew
ing wood, old bones—or even dirt
—give clear warning they are not
getting enough phosphorous. Just
aS serious as the lack of mineral,
the eating of rotten bones may in
troduce germs into the animal’^
system and cause even^ fatal disease.
Rickets is a nutritional disease
closely related to shortages of
phosphorous and calcium, particu
larly in yOUng cattle. All iodine de
ficiency, quite common in some
parts of the country* is easily dis
covered by goiter conditions or
noticeably weak newborn calves.

Minerals In Feeds
Many feeds are advertised as con
taining specified quantities of min
erals and often the label states the
amount required by various ani
mals. Beef cattle require half an
ounce of calcium and one-quarter
of an ounce of phosphorous daily.
Attention to this need will build up
a well-conditioned herd. Alfalfa and
clover are rich in calcium while
products such as white bran, midd
lings, cottonseed, linseed, grain
chop and meat meal provide con
siderable phosphorous. Milk pro
ducts are a sourse of both.
Usually, if a balanced feed is
used, the only mineral that will have
to be purchased is common salt
containing iodine. It may be nec
essary, in dry summers, to feed bone
meal to beef cattle while they are
on the range but not where they
are getting sufficient green grass.
Vitamins Needed Also
The vitamins required by beef
•cattle are not as numerous, accord
ing to latest research reports, as
minerals. The only ones necessary
in any quantity are vitamins A and
D. Daily feeding of clover and al-
.falfa supplies the proper amounts
of these, so deficiencies of this na
ture are uncommon. Rickets, as well
as being a symptom of mineral lack,
also can be attributed to less than
the required amounts of vitamin I).
