Purina Chows do not take the place of grain. They are made to be fed along with grain, to get more eggs, more milk, more Pork, or More beef, from every bushel grown on the Saint, ' When you ball ance your grain with Purina, you get enough extra production to pay for the Purina, and give you more money for your grain that you can get by feeding the grain alone.
