NEW PURINA HEIFER CHOW More and more local dairymen are proving that a small extra investment in heifer feeding can pay off when heifers freshen and begin contributing to the milk check. And research has proved that heifers which produce well in the* first lactation continue to be high producers over a longer milking life than average cows. NEW Purina* Heifer Chow* has been developed to help you grow big heifers fast, conveniently and at low cost. New Heifer Chow is a palatable, coarse 14 per cent protein ration, fortified with vitamins and minerals to stimulate fast, solid heifer growth. To build low-cost growth, you need feed only 3 pounds of New Heifer Chow per heifer per day if your legume forages are of good quality. For best results, start your heifers on the Purina heifer growing program at six months of age until 90 days before freshening when they’ll be fed on the basis of their condition and on the quality of your forage. Drop in soon and pick up a copy of our New Purina Heifer Growing Program folder. It explains the program to follow fot fast-growing, early-freshening heifers at low cost. •Ref.
