If you’re not among the many good local
dairymen who have started mixing NEW
Purina Dairy Conditioner Special with
your own grain to build a research
proved dry cow ration, it can pay you to
check into this low-cost way of feeding
dry cows.
New Purina Dairy Conditioner is a 16
percent protein ration, fortified with
extra Vitamins A and D plus phosphorus
to help guard against milk fever.
To help you save on dry cow feeding,
Purina Research recommends varying
feeding levels, depending on cow condi
tion and the quality of your roughages.
For example, if a cow is in good condi
tion and your roughages are of excellent
quality, you would feed less Purina dry
cow ration than if the cow were in only
fair condition and if the roughages were
of only fair quality.
Using Purina Check-R-Mix* formulas
we can build you a low-cost dry cow
