Red Rose Test Cow Feeds
Your cows need the best and these are the best
dairy feeds we know how to make. There is a Red Rose
14, 16, and 18 Test Cow Feeds —to fit your needs.
Can be fed in all seasons and are excellent for keeping
appetites high even during warm periods. Many dairy
men prefer them because of their coarse granular tex
ture. They are high in fat, minerals and protein, very
palatable and made from top quality grains and pro
teins. And they’re part of Red Rose’s Doubt Remover
dairy program that takes guesswork out of your work
and helps put in profit. Ask us about it. It’s free!

fed cattle trade followed a rather
erratic pattern during the week
under review. Prices advanced
sharp.
Immediate slaughter
requirements. A part of the early
upturn was lost later however, as
supplies expanded and buyers
became somewhat more cautious
in view of the relative inactivity
on carcass beef where hardly
enough sales were made the first
two days to establish price
quotations. Good and Low-Choice
750-900 pounds new crop heifers
were in particularly poor demand
late.
