THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH W>, WM Feed Shortages There is a Shortage of Protein Materials for Livestock Feed <c This situation has arisen for several reasons— (1) There has been a great increase in balanced feed­ ing in the last few years, (3) The fisheries that normally produce large quan­ tities of high protein animal feeds haye failed this year, (3) Runs of cattle on the stock-yards have been light so far this year and the production of meat meal has fallen off accordingly. In these circumstances there is only one solution—we must make better use of the livestock feed ingredients that are available— (1) CULL VIGOROUSLY—get those low producers oiit of your flock. They waste feed and money, (.2) FEED WISELY—poor feed well fed is lost—good feed poorly fed is wasted. Good feed well fed means production and profit. Our TOP quality SHUiR-GAIN Feeds are in short sujpp'ly right now—-we may not be able to supply you with all you want but we’ll do our very best for you. CANN’S MILL LTD.
