1 More Essential Now Than Ever 1
Due to yeses of cultivation and growing of aops the soil becomes
depleted of many necessary minerals, etc., consequently many grains do
not contain adequate nutritive value.
This is one reason for the need of
supplementary feeds to make a pro-
perly balanced ration for dairy cows.
Yon can't get milk without feed.
The more a cow will eat the more
millc you will get. But the feed must
be properly balanced and contain the
necessary amounts of vitamins end
minerals as well as -proteins and car-
bohydrates.
To make more money, keep only
well bred cows and /eed them so the
limes with Blatehlord's Dairy Meal
which is very palatable, contains
abundant goanfitiea of all the essen-
tial vitamins, minerals and is the most
economical feed you can buy.
