ANDY SAYS
Since the Produce Department of the
A.R.R.C. is unable to accept "red11
potatoes, farmers are asking me if
it is satisfactory to feed these to
their cows, The amount of raw
potatoes which a cow can use to
advantage depends on. 'each individual
animal. It is advisable•to start
the use. of potatoes slowly and grad
ually increase the amount to that
which the cow can use advantageously,
If the cow gets too many potatoes,
she is apt 'to dry up. Also, be
careful not to feed rotten or frozen
potatoes as that is liable to have a
bad effect.
