Abstract
In a study of the value of roughage in the dairy ration, several heifers have been maintained at this station on a roughage-free diet from birth to over 18 months of age. A similar group was reared on the same mixture of concentrates plus approximately 14 per cent of sulphite wood paper pulp. During this work, digestion trials were conducted with heifers from each group. The results are here reported.
