"We started on the AGRI-KING feeding program in March 1973 with a rolling herd average of 14,668 lbs. milk and 544 lbs. fat. We felt that our production was as good as possible, but we had a lot of problems. We had three cows in 1972 that produced over 20,000 lbs. milk and our net bills averaged over $10.70 per head. The first year we were on AGRI-KING our net bills dropped to $8.69 per head. Even with in creased inflation, in 1974 our net bills averaged only $6.39 per head counting everything from dialators to veterinarian calls. George F.

In Feb. 1975 our rolling herd average on 73 cows was 17,484 lbs. milk and 614 lbs. fat. This is the first we’ve ever been over 600 lbs. fat. in 1974 we had 11 cows to produce over 20,000 lbs. milk in 305 days and Grace had 27,920 lbs. milk and 867 lbs. fat. We have 12 less cows and have the highest base we’ve ever had in the dairy business. We used to throw a lot of milk away because of mastitis and freshening problems, but now we throw away very little. We have averaged over 50 lbs. of milk (on milking cows) for the past 13 months.” & SE Berks Co Lancaster Farming, Saturday, March 1,1975 — Sheaffer, High School Principal; John Watts, Ford marketing representative for the Eastern U.S.; Dr. Robert Herr, vocational-agriculture department chairman; Robert S.
