Do you know how much milk
your cows can really give?
• Did you ever hear of a poultryman who
gathered his eggs and then decided how
much feed to give his hens? Or of a hog
man who weighed his pigs and then
decided how much feed they ought to
get next day?
But how many dairymen do you know
who weigh Bossy’s milk', then decide how
much feed to give her?
Doesn’t make sense, does it?
Wayne's New Concept Dairy Feeding
Program does! ft leads Bossy into high
production with high gram feeding FIRST.
