Much 'of the mineral required for winter milk production • must come from the cow's system. Consequently,- mineral build-up In the animal's body must occur while she Is on pasture. For a healthy, profit-making herd, feed Co-op Cattle Mineral, free- choice, throughout the entire year. Lush spring and summer pastures provide, adequate bulk and protein but are low in energy. On. pasture alone, a cow can proCluce only 30 pounds of milk per day because of her limited capacity to consume a sufficient quantity of grass. Additional energy is required to maintain body weight and to attain maximum milk production: The new CO-011 Pasture Ration provides this all-iinportant extra- energy that is' required to supplement spring and summer pastures. Feed CO-OP 'Pasture Ration and you will get more from' your pasture . . . more from your herd.
