Shur -Gain
Hog Concentrate
added to a much smalleramountthan usual of home grown grains
will not only reduce the cost of feeding, - it will reduce the time
in which your hogs mature. It will get them ready for market
in 6 months or less.
A third and vital reason why SHUR-GAIN Hog Concentrate should
be fed to your hogs is that grain alone does not supply the.pro-
tein, minerals and vitamins that a hog needs. SHUR-GAIN is
designed, to supply just these elements - and when added to your
own grains, you achieve a balanced feed which will get best results
in hog feeding.
SHUR-GAIN is economical - you require only a little more them
half as much grain - your hogs will be ready for market earlier -
they will be healthier, stronger and will grade better.
Your feed costs will be lower - if you use SHUR-GAIN.
