feeders everywhere are talking about
Ful-O-Pep Supplement
In feedlot after feedlot—commercial and farm—feeders are reporting
better gains and conversions at lower feed cost.
The reason: It’s Ful-O-Pep Cattle-izer Beef Supplement... de
signed to enable the beef animal to get up to 20% more energy from
the same amount of feed... and to use that extra energy for faster,
more efficient gains.
Gain, efficiency of gain, cost of gain, market value of cattle, and
other factors are reflected in net return. And net return , cattlemen
are reporting, is higher when Ful-O-Pep Cattle-izer Beef Supple
ment is fed.

“I can go into a man’s place
where he has DHIA records
and can brag about certain
cows and his herd average/Yet*"**
the most important thingahout
the records is they must be
analyzed and used to deter
mine profits. The only reason
you have a cow is to have her
take one dollar’s worth of feed
and turn it into moie than one
dollar’s worth of milk If she
doesn’t, you better sell her,”
dig stated

FEED ROSE PLANTS
Feed roses during late July
if you want them to bloom dur
ing early fall, says J. Robert
Nuss, extension ornamental
horticulturist. About half a cup
of a- 5-10-10 fertilizer scratch
ed 3, into -the ' soil’s surface
around each plant should be
enough, Then, water until
soaked around the plant to a
depth of about six inches.
Feeding roses early in the fall
may cause rapid growth, which
could result in winter mjuiy,
says Nuss
Another fault with being
punctual is that everybody
thinks you never have any-
