BUS A INESS SLES FINANCING A STORY ABOUT Pasture GOOD PASTURE produces your cheapest milk. Pasture improvement and management (a subject we haven't space to cover here) deserve any dairyman's attention. But for long- term results, even the best pasture 'requires some supplemental feeding . . . and poorer pastures, of course, require more. YOU TURN a 1,200 lb. cow out on lush pasture. She eats to capacity—say even 115 lbs. a day! But it's 84% water. She is getting only 18 to 19 lbs. dry solids (when she should be getting at least 30 lbs. Dry Solids per day) — not much over half you felt she needed in the stable; and the pasture is stimulating her to make more milk. UNLESS she gets more dry solids than she can get out of pasture, she draws heavily on her body, and runs herself down in weight and condition. Then she drops off in milk; and you can't get her up again, no matter how well you feed, until you build that lost weight and condition back in. That's slow and expensive. It's better to feed her first than last. SO PURINA SUGGESTS: 1. Feed good hay even on good pasture, if you have it 2. Feed BULKY-LAS, a gallon night and morning. Cows will eat it when they refuse hay. 3. As soon as cows will eat it after turning out, begin feeding DAIRY RATION. (Many good dairymen feed Bulky-Las and grain, half-and-half, while pastures are good, and switch to milk-stimulating dairy ration when pastures grow short and dry.

Consumers may wonder how the U.S, producer can continue at this price but the consumer perhaps doesn't know that the U.S, feed grain is subsidized so that the feeder has an advantage of about $5 per ton of feed over the Can- adian producer, I would again like to remind the consumer that an 11 cent spread between Grade A large and Grade A medium, eggs is not realistic.
