Milk Fever
So you called the vet to have a we asked about it,' to boost the
calcium levels in the blood. He
also said that the heaviest drain
on calcium Conies in high -produc-
ing cows. That is why the best
cows like "Flossie" are hardest
hit. It might seem like throwing
away money to grain a freshening
cow for 30 days and yet all feed
experts tell us it is yqur best in-
invesment and this .could be one
of the reasons. You not only will
increase calf weight and milk
Production but also .avoid costly
vet bills and loss of production.

look at Flossie , She's been
fresh and milking good, Real
good, in fact she's been almost
tilling the milker, You can't
understand it when the vet said
"milk fever". Pimple was in good
flesh at ',calving, you really had
counted on that extra income, not
extra vet bilis, when she joined
those. other hardworking milkers.
The preceding could be just
any average dairyman, ten years
age, Today it is quite a different
story, Feeding research carried
out by University of • California
has shown that Milk Fever is vir-
tually no problem when the ra-
tion during the last month of
pregnacy carries 'one .part of cal-
cium to at least 3.3 parts of
phosphorus. "
Straight alfalfa hay, fed alone
at this period, gave the moat
trouble witb milk fever—and is
thought to do so because it is a
high -calcium lew •phosphorus diet
(6 parts calcium to 1 phosphor-
us),
A suggested grain ration which
helps to overcome this is to feed
eight lbs. of grain for the, month
previous to calving. The scientists
feel that a ration containing 1
part calcium to 6.6 parts of phos-
phorus has helped materially to
decrease the disease. They point
out that milk fever is caused by
the sudden rush of milk at calv-
ing drains the calcium from the
blood. Before the calcium regulat-
ing glands—which have been in-
active during the dry period—get
active again, the cow suffers from
the deficiency of calcium in her
blood "stream.
Another treatment which these
men found effective was to "Dose.
cows with 30 .million units of
Vitamin D each day for 5 -to 7
days before freshening". This
treatment would seem to be just a
cover-up, for a poor feeding ra-
tion, since both treatments—the
Vitamin D and the low calcium -
high ,phosphortta diet—are design-
ed, according to a vet triend who

All of Ford's experience and skill gained
in building more than two million tractor
engines accounts for the advanced design
of the new, more 'powerful "Red Tiger"
engine. It's 30 percent more powerful
than any previous Ford Tractor engine,
yet is surprisingly economical to operate.
Low friction results in more engine power
delivered to the job.
