It's A great feeling to know that you are the
master of your farmlands . . . that when you
treat your soil right, it will treat you right.
Liming is one of the most important factors in
keeping your soil in the highest productive
range. By raising the pH from a level below 6.Q
to 6.5 or higher, you can expect to harvest as
much as 5 more bushels of corn per acre, with
similar increases for all other forage and cash
crops.

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

More and more successful area .dairy

ing pays off in extra cow condition—
and extra milk production in the next
lactation. For example, 100 to 200
pounds of additional body weight at
freshening can pay off in 1,000 to 2,000
pounds of extra milk during the lactation.

able to Lancaster County Poul
tiymen, the cases of the New
Bolton and Doylestown labs have
been considered The services we
have received from these labs has
been generally unsatisfactory.
The appropriations for these labs
are quite sizeable. Could these
appropriations be transferred to
Harusburg to provide new equip
ment and personel to provide
more complete service 9
“We hope your studies will
provide satisfactory answers for
the future planning of state ser
vices ”
The County poultrymen had
been strongly advocating a la
bel atory to be built on local
ground but Hess said a new
budge in the area of the Harns
buig laboiatory had made that
facility much more accessible.
A statement from New Belton
Laboiatory was also shown in
which managament there listed
the services available and urged
Lancaster County Poultrymen to
use the facilities Feeling among
the duectors was that this state
ment was a rebuttal to the local
association’s pi ess for better ser
vice
In other business, a two-day
tour and a one-day tour to the
NEPPCO Exposition in Atlantic
City during the week of October

Resort for the first time this
year The touis are planned to go
by bus on Wednesday, October

tion procedures will be reported
in Lancaster Farming in a near
future issue. '
