GROW BIG HEIFERS
FAST WITH
PURINA CALF GROWENA
Purina Calf Growena® is specially-formulated to help
you grow dairy herd replacements fast, breed them
early and freshen them between 22 and 24 months.
Calf Growena helps you feed heifers at low cost from
3 through 6 months, yet gives them the protein and
energy that fast growth demands. Calf Growena is forti
fied with vitamins and minerals growing calves need.
Purina Calf Growena is part of the Purina calf growing
team to help build sound calf growth fast—and at low
cost. To grow heifers fast, feed Purina Nursing Chow®
or Nurse-Gro to 4 or 5 weeks and Calf Startena® through
2 months. Then, because growing calves still need a
high level of protein and energy, feed Calf Growena
through six months of age.
Start your heifers growing fast and producing early
with Purina Calf Growena. You can buy it in the 50-lb.
bag at the store with the Checkerboard sign.

Cowtown Rodeo Results
A bright red sun hung low
in the western sky as the rain
poured at the Cowtown
Rodeo Saturday night. Many
of the 1,900 persons in at
tendance must have been
real rodeo fans for they
simply put up their um
brellas or pulled out their
slickers and sat in the un
covered arena, savoring all
the zest and vitality of the
cowboys performing as if it
was nothing more than a
heavy dew.
The rain ended as sud
denly as it began to the
delight of the 300 members of
the Boeing Vertol Co. of
Philadelphia, who had
purchased their tickets in
advance. The company has
been sponsoring “Boeing
Night at the Rodeo” for the
past 3 years and in
recognition of these efforts,
a Cowboy hat was presented
to Mr. Ray Burke, event
chairman for the
management Association by
Mr. Howard Harris 3rd.
owner of the Cowtown
Rodeo. Mr. C.G. Johnson Jr.
of Salem-Woodstown Road
originated the project..
In spite of the handicap of
all the rain which made the
rodeo arena comparable to
Loch Ness, the cowboys time
or performance was neither
longer nor less.
