;• nt "dry
cow" body
condition.
Calving stimulates a cow to produce
beyond her ability to convert feed in'
milk. So, during the first months ofh
lactation, she "steals” milk-making nuto
ents from her body.
It requires only 600 pounds of Pion#
Dry, and Freshening feed to repair tl
body tissue used during the previous la l
tation ... to build a reserve of body coi
dition for the next lactation ... and
produce a vigorous calf.
Pioneer Dry and Fresh, fed during: t*
dry period, is a sound investment in h el
health, sustained high production, a"
longevity for your pro- —"
ducing herd.
