Broderick Enjoys Show
Lieutenant Governor Raymond

the fifth Pennsylvania All-Amer

September 25, voiced a need

we have here.”
Asked about plans now under
consideration for replacing out
moded Farm Show buildings
with modern facilities, Lieuten
ant Governor Broderick said;
“I am committed to this: I
want Pennsylvania to take the
lead in the nation with our Dairy
Show, our Livestock Exposition,
and our Farm Show. We must
continue to improve these shows
in every way possible, including
improvements that are needed
to facilities.”
Obviously interested in every
aspect of the Dairy Show and
knowledgeable about dairy ani

“I was born and raised in
Philadelphia, and most people
call me a city boy. But what they
do not know is that, between the

Corn For Silage
On The Increase
Production of corn for silige
is enjoying a fast rise in popu
larity, according to Neri A.
Clark, Associate Professor, For
age Crops, University of Mary
land, College Park. The forage
authority spoke recently at the
11th annual Northeast Fertilizer
Conference sponsored by Nation
al Plant Food Institute and
northeastern land-grant univer
sities.
Corn silage acreage has near
ly doubled while corn for grain
has decreased by one-fourth
during the last 20 years, he not
ed
Chief among reasons for corn
silage popularity is that on many
soils, said Clark, corn silage pro
duces the most feed energy per
acre at lowest per unit cost.
Also, corn silage is well adapted
to ensiling; the handling opera
tion can be efficiently mechan
ized; high yields are more like
ly with corn than other forage
ciops, and com silage is pala
table and readily eaten by cattle.
One of the factors essential for
efficient corn silage yields, not
ed Clark, is a high level of soil
fertilization. Plant nutrient
needs of corn silage are much
higher than those for corn as
grain alone, since the entire
plant is utilized as silage. Cur
rent recommendations call for
up to 40 pounds more nitrogen,
and 70 pounds more phosphate
and potash per acre than for a
corn grain crop.

What's New in Feeding Cattle?
Ful-O-Pep Cattle-izer Beef Supplement
An entirely new concept in cattle nutrition opens up new profit pos
sibilities for cattlemen everywhere. Based on a whole new principle in
feeding, Ful-O-Pep Cattle-izer Beef Supplement changes the proportions
of organic acids produced in the rumen. As a result, up to 20% more
energy is available to the animal, as compared to the same amount of
regular feed without the new concept.-
This extra energy means faster gains, less feeding time to market, and
considerable lower feeding costs. For thousands of cattlemen, it mean#
extra profits.

Buying Cheese by Grade
Whether to use in a casserole
or to nibble on, you want the
Cheddar cheese you buy to be of
high quality. Packages carrying
the USDA grade shield give you
this assurance, says Harold E.

The shield means that the Ched
dar cheese has been inspected
and graded by an experienced
and trained government grader.
It also means that the cheese
