Four groups of 10 maiden Hereford heifers, approximately 16 months of age, were group-fed in bare yards for 26 weeks. All groups received crushed sorghum grain, supplemented with 1 per cent. ground limestone, at the rate of 3 lb per head per day. Daily feeding with and without a supplement of 0.5 per cent. sodium chloride added to the grain was compared with twice-weekly and weekly feeding without added salt. This experiment has indicated that 3 lb crushed sorghum grain supplemented with 1 per cent. limestone is a satisfactory drought fodder for maiden heifers confined in small yards.
