THE ANSWER TO LOW -LABOUR MULTIPLE FEEDING WAS RIGHT UNDER OUR NOSES ALL THE TIME ...GRAIN U BRAIN AND IT ISN'T COMPUTERIZED! It took a dairyman to invent such a perfect feeder. We call this exciting new Starline®feeder, 'Grain Brain -1'4 because it 'thinks for itself'. Here's how it works: When you do your regular feeding, you also fill your 'Grain Brain' TM multifeeders. Grain BrainTM does the rest. At the time you have preset into Grain BrainTM the multifeeders drop feed for each cow's next feeding. That means you go from two or three -time to four or six -time -per -day feeding with no extra labourl Grain BrainTM' is simple, easy to operate, reliable and capable of paying for itself in less than a year. We're anxious to tell you the whole story, so call us at Elmira Agri Systems soon. By the way, 'Grain BrainTM' was invented by a Minnesota dairyman for his own barn. Now a lot of his neighbours have one, too.
