SUPPLEMENT GRASS WITH PURINA Good grass is a benefit. Good dairymen take advan tage of every acre of pasture they have. Cows love grass and it stimulates milk flow. Yet, good dairymen know that grass is 85% water. As summer advances it turns brown, losses its palata bility and is even less nutritious. Tests at the Purina Dairy Center proved that cows fed a grain supplement with grass produced up to 20% more milk. They kept up in body condition, too, and held up better in production in following lactations. Visit us at the store, or give us a ring. We’d like to suggest Purina’s Research-proved plan for suppl menting grass to help you get more milk from yo herd over the summer. Wenger's Feed Mill Inc. Ph: 367-1195 Rheems Ira B.
