Milking cows can neither produce well nor maintain their own bodies without an adequate supply of nutri tious, succulent roughage. Purina Bulky-Las, high in vitamins and minerals, is an excellent roughage supplement. Just one gallon per milking provides one-half the roughage requirements FLIES DIE LIKE MAGIC Just sprinkle Purina dry Fly Bait on the f100r... and watch ’em die! iwn.Su iHYBtf! I *•» I--. - J.

Phosphate Fertilizer Helps Summer Pasture In an experiment conducted re cently by the University of Ken tucky, the application of about $5.40 worth of phosphate fertil izer on Sudan grass produced an extra 3,500 pounds of forage, ac cording to Agronomist E. C. Doll of the Kentucky agricultural ex periment station. * In the Kentucky experiment, 1 land to which no phosphorus was added averaged only 1,400 pounds of dry matter per acre. When 150 pounds of 20 per cent superphos phate were added, production per acre went up to 3,800 pounds, and when 450 pounds of superphos phate were applied, production soared to 4,900 pounds. and Barry Haldeman, R 2 Man heim.
