Produce More Economical Gains Whether you feed a complete feed or balance your own grain with concentrate you will find. that a SHUR-GAIN Hog Feeding Program will produce more economical gains in these 3 ways: 1. 'Hogs will reach market weight sooner. (2 or 3 months ahead of straight grain fed hogs) 2. Hogs will require less total feed. (650 lbs. or less. of SHUR-GAIN Balanced Hog Feed' compared to about 1100 lbs. of straight grain Per hog.) 3. Hogs -will obtain better grades when market. ,.(Earn you more premiums) Many farmers will have a good supply of their grain this fall to feed their hogs. Just remember this fact — grain lacks the proteins, Vitarnins and minerals that are required for a FULLY BALANCED hog ration. However, these deficiencies of grain can be corrected by !liking the recommended levels of SHUR-GAIN fripg Concentrate, .11- you haven't already clone so, try your next litter ,on the• SHUR-GAIN Hog Pi6gion and prove to yourself that :SHUR,GAIN Hog Feeds have "Greater Dollar Earning Capacity', A0A PACKE• RS W1NGHAM . .tiptitimiffitmillitimosoffittnitiuturoctioniptipot, Barrister:" DO YOU siiss.e4t that he is a thief?
