But to make meat on grain alone, cattle *aiid hogs require up to twice as much grain as when their ration is balanced with a good supplement. Many cattle feeders report getting as much gain from 600 pounds of grain and 100 pounds of Steer Fatena as from 1,100 pounds of grain alone. Many feeders today also prefer to feed rations with stilbestrol to get the added gains and economy. Our Quality Mixing Service, plus the fact that we use Micro-Mixed Purina Steer Fatena, helps us insure you th*. all Micro ingre dients, such as stilbestrol, are properly blended in your cattle feed. Hogs fed on Purina Check-R-Mixed formulas should put on gains with only one-half the feed it takes whe* straight grain is used. We are equipped to take your grain, grind it just right for hogs, then mix it with just enough Purina Hog Chow Concentrate to make those low-costgains you must have for profit these days. H. S.
