"The time to feed a cow MILK PRODUCTION 'when she’s Strange as it sometimes seems, dry cow feeding is a true course to milk production and long cow life. Extra body weight and built-up reserves of strength resulting from a good dry cow feeding plan put a cow in shape to deliver a big, strapping calf and go right to work on a long, steady lactation the day she freshens. Purina on-the-farm research tells us that 100 lbs. extra body weight on a dry cow means up to 2000 lbs. more milk in her next lactation... in addition to the benefits of health she gains. Purina D and F (dry and freshening) CHOW is tailor made for dry cow feeding. It contains ample quantities of body-building nutrients to build both cow and unborn calf during this critical period. It contains minerals for strong bones, vitamins for health. Properly fed, quality Purina D & F Chow not only gives cows a big head start on their next lactation ... it keeps them in condition to breed again and again and again... for long, profitable, healthful productive life.
