Those words express the farmer's feeling to-
wards his nearest SHUR-GAIN FEED SERVICE
MILL. He appreciates the fact that, close to his
farm, is a mill prepared to give him service in many
ways.
SHUR-GAIN FEED SERVICE means fresh
feeds—either complete feeds or concentrates, They
are fresh because they are made up as the farmer
needs them, This is important because ,fresh feeds
are more palatable. Livestock prefer them.
SHUR-GAIN FEED SERVICE means bal-
anced feeding.- Whether you need SHUR-GAIN
complete feeds or SklUR-GAIN Concentrates to
mix with your own grain you are sure of a feed that
will supply your farm animals with the proportions
of minerals, vitamins and high quality proteins they
need for health and growth — which, in the end,
means bigger profits.
SHUR-GAIN FEED SERVICE means low-
er feed costs; When you buy SI-TUR-GAIN feeds
you pay less. Transportation charges and useless
handling charge& are eliminated — because they're
made right next door to your farm. Middlemen's
charges are also cut out. The substantial saving is
passed on to you in the way of'lower prices.
For All Your Livestock Feeding See Us—
We Specialize in Reduced Costs.
