Hanna Men's Wear Bigger Savings In Dry Feeding of Calves SAVES LABOUR. Calf feeding is :a time-consuming chore at the best—which is all the more reason that every means of eliminating waste effort should be made. Dry calf feeding, using SHUR-GAIN Calf Starter has the very obvious advantage of saving many hours in mixing feed and washing SAVES CALVES Contaminated pails have been the cause of more calf scours and resultant deaths than perhaps most dairymen realize. You eliminate much of the danger in calf feeding, by the cleaner, more sanitary dry calf feeding method, with Calf Starter. SAVES M ON E Y Calf raising on a prepared calf food saves many dollars in milk per calf — but, feeding SHUR-GAIN Calf Starter is even more economical, because calves can be changed from milk to Starter at an even earlier age. With all these savings to be made, there's no time to delay, in calling at our mill for a trial supply. It's the freshest calf feed you can buy.
