Care of the Cows
The cows should have plenty of exercise, but care should be taken that they are not frightened or over-exerted. They should be provided with proper protection from the weather and should have plenty of fresh hay, ground whole grain, and, when possible, be allowed to graze. Spoiled vegetables or fruits, foul or fermented foods are detrimental to dairy cows. A proper supply of salt is necessary and plenty of pure, fresh water is absolutely essential for the health of cows.
