Rumen Important
Miss Cindy Hess, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Richard Hess,
Strasburg RDI, gave her 4-H
demonstration on “No Hay Ra
tions Can Spell Trouble.” She
emphasized that the rumen is
one of the most important parts
of the cow and the rumen must
be kept in excellent condition
in order for the cow to perform
well.
Coarse, hard, stemmy materi
al is essential to make the ru
men muscles work bard and
keep it in excellent condition.
This type of material is impor
tant near the end of the lacta
tion and during the dry period,
she said.

For good production next lactation,
FEED PURINA
DAIRY CONDITIONER
As a dairyman, you know that good milk production
doesn't just happen. It’s something you plan for by
establishing a herd with the genetic potential for good
production, then managing and feeding your cows so
they’ll produce up to their bred-in ability.
Many successful local dairymen also plan for good pro
duction with a proven program of dry cow feeding.
They need Purina Dairy Conditioner, a research
proven ration to help give dry cows body condition
they need for good production after they freshen.
Purina Dairy Conditioner is an extra-palatable 12%
percent protein ration. It’s fortified with vitamins A
and D plus extra phosphorus to help guard against milk
fever.
Purina Dairy Conditioner is low-cost, too, because the
amounts you feed depend on your cows’ condition and
on the quality of the roughages you feed. For example,
a cow dried off in good condition being fed high-quality
roughages would require less Dairy Conditioner than
a cow in only fair condition being fed fair quality
roughages.
Drop in soon and get your free copy of the
Purina Dry Cow Program folder. We’ll be glad
to show you how Purina Dairy Conditioner can
help you prepare your dry cows,for good pro
duction next lactation.
