  • Antibiotic versus nonantibiotic products for the treatment of Papillomatous Digital Dermatitis (hairy heel wart) in dairy cattle
    Sargeant, J.M.; Gnad, D.P.; Shirley, J.E.; Isch, J.; Bathina, H.; Lising, J. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2000)
    A field trial was conducted to compare oxytetracycline to three nonantibiotic therapies using bandage protocols for the treatment of hairy heel warts. Affected feet were bandaged for 4 days with either of the four products. ...
  • Determination of the amount of wet corn gluten feed to include in diets for lactating dairy cows
    VanBaale, M.J.; Shirley, J.E.; Scheffel, M.V.; Titgemeyer, E.C.; Lindquist, R.U. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2000)
    Twenty-four multiparous Holstein cows were used in six 4×4 Latin squares with 28- day periods to determine inclusion rates for wet corn gluten feed (WCGF) in diets for lactating dairy cows. Cows were housed in a tie-stall ...
  • Intake and performance of dairy cows fed wet corn gluten feed during the periparturient period
    Park, A.F.; Defrain, J.M.; Meyer, M.J.; Shirley, J.E.; Titgemeyer, E.C.; Marston, T.T.; Gleghorn, J.F.; Wankel, L.E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2000)
    Eight primiparous and nine multiparous Holstein cows were used in a randomized block design to determine the effect of wet corn gluten feed in the diet during the last 21 days of gestation on dry matter intake and early ...
  • Monensin: an overview of its application in lactating dairy cow diets
    DeFrain, J.M.; Shirley, J.E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2000)
    The efficiency of feedstuff utilization by ruminal microorganisms and the cow’s genetic ability to convert feed nutrients into milk and milk components are major factors that influence the profitability of a dairy herd. ...
  • Relationship among concentrations of milk urea nitrogen and plasma urea nitrogen and feeding time
    Ferdinand, E.E.; Shirley, J.E.; Meyer, M.J.; Park, A.F.; VanBaale, M.J.; Titgemeyer, E.C. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2000)
    Eight Holstein cows were used to determine the relationship among milk urea nitrogen (MUN), plasma urea nitrogen (PUN), and feeding time. We first established that MUN concentrations were similar in concentration among ...
  • Salmonella Dublin: a threat to dairy heifer survival and future performance
    Schmidt, D.G.; Gnad, D.P.; Sargeant, J.M.; Shirley, J.E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2000)
    Salmonella dublin is a bacterium that can have devastating effects in dairy herds. It is most deadly with calves that range in age from 10 days to 5 months. Salmonella dublin is shed from carrier animals through feces, ...
  • Total blood protein as an indicator of colostral sufficiency and morbidity in dairy calves
    Schmidt, D.G.; Gnad, D.P.; Sargeant, J.M.; Shirley, J.E. (Kansas State University. Agricultural Experiment Station and Cooperative Extension Service, 2000)
    Total blood protein measured in calves between 1 and 7 days of age is a good indicator of the sufficiency of colostral intake and level of immunity passed to the calf. This measurement can be used to improve calf management ...
