Following colostrum feeding, start calves on SHUR-GAIN Milk Replacer at about a pound per day for the first two to three weeks. 20% SHUR-GAIN Calf Starter Grower should be made available free choice starting in week one. It's a complete ration and an excellent way to get calves off to a fast start to market. To increase average daily gains and feed efficiency, implant the calves at day of birth with Ralgef . It's not difficult to implant and the returns largely outweigh the investment. From three to eight weeks. At two to three weeks of age, switch the calves to SHUR-GAIN Calflac. It contains high protein, high energy ingredients that calves can utilize after they start development of their rumen. Feed good quality, second cut hay during this period. Eight weeks to market. At about seven to eight weeks, take the calves off Calflac. Introduce them to whole corn along with the calf Starter-Grower. After a week, the calves should be on a ration of whole corn and SHUR-GAIN 36% Steakmaker No. 1(0% ECP) at a ratio of 3 lbs. of corn to 1 lb. of the supplement. Steakmaker is specifically designed to provide the nutritional balance for total grain feeding. Feed this 16% ration free choice. Re-implant the calves with Ralgro" at two and a half months of age.

Now, I .want to fully understand my .own system before giving it to someone else." At the OFA's December meeting, they decided to ask the government for large in- creases in funds for FCC. Brenda McIntosh is from Huron County Federation of Agriculture. She says in 1967/77, the average. FCC share of long term credit loaned to farmers was close to 65 percent. Banks loaned the balance. In 1979, FCC's share dropped to a low 39.8 percent. Forecasts for 1980 are 33 percent. The only source of FCC's funds is from the treasury. McIntosh says FCC is trying to pass an amendment so they can borrow from sources other than the treasury. For example, retiring farmers could loan money to FCC and receive a tax incentive. "FCC is falling farther and farther behind. Farmers need a dependable source of credit. Banks are not always willing to lend large sums of money to farmers. FCC is not keeping up with in- flationary land values."
