FULO-PEP DEVELOPED RESTRICTED
FEEDING PLAN OVER 20 YEARS AGO
The famous Ful-O-Pep Restricted Feeding Plan
which was originated by the late Dr. O. B. Kent
in 1936, has been thoroughly tested and im
proved over the years by Ful-O-Pep research. It
is now being used profitably on hundreds of lead
ing poultry farms throughout the country. Many
universities are also studying and recommending
restricted feeding for growing pullets.
Birds mature before being forced into
production—lay more eggs and bigger eggs
Many leading poultrymen have learned through
experience that it pays to grow their replacement
pullets on a restricted feeding plan Not only
does a limited-feeding plan save feed, but it also
enables pullets to develop normally and fully be
fore they are brought into egg production. As a
result, they lay more eggs—big, full-sized eggs—
very few, if any peewees. <

‘Retooling’
Raw Material
HOUSTON, Texas, April 30
The meat industry is rapidly re
tooling one of its most important
ant raw materials to provide con
sumers with nfew and improved
meat products, George W. Stark,
Chairman of the Board of the
American Meat Institute and
President of Stark, Wetzel & Co,
Tnc, stated here today in a talk
before the annual meeting of the
American Stock Yards Associa
tion.
“Not unlike the durable goods
manufacturers the meat industry
today is working on a new model
hog that will deliver leaner, more
tender and tastier pork chops and
hams to our customers,” he said
' “Already about 25 per cent of
our hog supply will qualify as the
new streamlined type, producing
more protein and fewer calories
the kind of product our cus
tomers want. Within five years
the majority of our hogs will be
