Extra Step Antibiotic
Animal Health Products,

moting a water soluble, Flox
aid, as a means of heading off
disease and of providing “extra
step” treatment of a sick flock
by building up the stressed
birds with nutrients, antibio
tics and a broad spectrum of
vitamins
Merck poultry experts say
that disease can bring on a
period of lowered feed intake
due to decreased appetites. The
attendant diarrhea can cause a
loss of body fluids and energy
reserves.
The antibiotic content of
Floxaid in effect builds a wall
against disease, while giving
the birds a chance to pick up
those vitamins needed to re
store tissues and build up a re
servoir of energy, according to
Merck.

If you’re not among the many good local
dairymen who have started mixing
Purina Dairy Conditioner Special with
your own gram to build a research
proved dry cow ration, it can pay-you to
check into this low-cost way of feeding
dry cows.
Purina Dairy Conditioner is a 16 percent
protein ration, fortified with extra Vita
mins 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.
