You get more eggs from your feed dol
lar because our exclusive, patented re
mixing intake wheel in the feed hopper
re-mixes uneaten feed returning from
the trough with fresh feed. That means
all of the feed is used. Your birds get the
full ration, and feed is not wasted. The
result is better feed conversion.
The Big Dutchman chain-m-trough feed

processing plants which pro

tion of mechanical haivesters,
the eastern shore area farmers
stand a good chance of com
peting favorably with the west
coast growers
Dr. Frederick Angell, of the
University of Maryland Horti
culture Department, said the
tomatoes giown on the eastern
shore were piocessed largely as
whole pack (canned) tomatoes.
Eastein shore processors gradu

pioducts, reflecting increased
consumer demands and the rise
in convenience foods which con
tain tomatoes
Now, says, Dr Angell, there
is a slowly developing market
for whole Italian tomatoes
which grow extiemely well in
the sandy soil of the eastern
shore area He is also breeding
a variety which has no core and
is suitable foi packing as a
