KEY TO PROFIT
What is Super Calf Tone? It is high potency levels of all vitamins including all water
soluble B-vitamins and all trace minerals, plus full spectrum of chelated trace
minerals. All these are incorporated in a base of the best combination of water soluble
milks we can buy so it goes into suspension along with your milk replacer. It therefore
not only supplies the high levels of all vitamins and trace minerals, (sometimes
referred to as electrolytes) but also supplies high nutritive elements from the high
quality milk products. There are NO drugs of any kind in Super Calf Tone.
What is Super Calf Tone for? To furnish the high levels of nutrition needed to get the
calf off to a good start at the most critical time of his life. Remember the calf is your
future herd and if it has problems in the first two weeks of life its chances of becoming
a good strong high producing animal have been seriously impaired. Too big a per
centage of calves die during this critical period from a multitude of reasons, most of
them complicated by poor nutrition and managements.
Super Calf Tone is also for use on any size and age calf that is doing poorly from any
cause It is a highly palatable product and will be eaten readily when sprinkled on
gram rations.
HOW TO USE SUPER CALF TONE:
First I want to stress that the calf should always receive colostrom milk for the first
72 hours. This is where it gets the anti-bodies necessary to build the immunities to all
the things floating around that it is born into.
Then starting with the first milk replacer or whole milk feeding, add one ounce per
feeding (two ounces per day) to your regular feeding. If you wish you may reduce
your milk replacer being used by an equal amount (one ounce per feeding) but it is not
necessary. Continue for 16 days or longer if conditions warrant it. When using on a
calf that already has problems double the amount (two ounces per feeding or four
ounces per day) for 7 to 10 days.
When using on calves that are already off milk and getting only gram, just sprinkle
Super Calf Tone on top of the gram. Just for general toning up, feed two ounces per
head per day and, again, for a calf in trouble, double to four ounces per head per day.
If a calf is not eating his grain and therefore not eating the Super Calf Tone, do not
hesitate to mix in a pop bottle of warm water and drench them. This is a very simple
task on a calf and I’m sure two to three days of drenching will help restore their ap
petities, then go back to sprinkling on top of grain.
The necessity for this product is brought about from the fact that it is almost im
possible for you dairymen to purchase a milk replacer with enough vitamin umtages
to take care of today’s conditions. When they do have vitamins they are usually only A
and D and low at that. Very seldom do they have B vitamins, which are very essential
to the calf as it is a single stomach animal in the beginning and does not have a rumen
to manufacture B vitamins. You will very seldom find a milk replacer with the full
spectrum of electrolytes or, if so, not enough, and almost never will they have
chelated trace minerals. Super Calf Tone carries them all and in very generous
amounts.
Most of you fellows are using Super Micro Conditioner on your milking herd and
know what an outstanding job it is doing. Super Calf Tone will do every bit as much for
your calves. It will do exactly what the name implies - Tone Them Up. Again
remember, that calf is your future herd.
If any questions regarding Super Calf Tone or anything else, please give us a call.
Yours for Stronger and Healthier and
Better Looking Calves

Cow
slaughter
DENVER, Colo - Cow
slaughter in the U.S is now
estimated to have totaled
11 6 million head in 1975, the
American National Cat
tlemen’s Association said
today
This represents an in
crease of 54 percent over the
1974 total of 7.5 million head.
Also, it is 16 percent greater
than the previously
projected total of 10 million
head for 1975.
As a result of the record
large cow slaughter in recent
months, it now appears that
the nation’s cow herd (in
cluding both beef and dairy
cows) on Jan. 1, 1976, was
between 53 8 and 54.3 million
head or three to five
percent less than a year
earlier This will be the first
decline in the size of the cow
herd since 1967.
The total cattle inventory
as of Jan. 1 is now estimated
to be approximately one
percent lower than the 131.8
million head on farms and
ranches a year ago. Thus,
there appears to have been a
reversal in the cyclical
build-up m the total cattle
herd.
Cow slaughter in
November totaled 1.2 million
head, up 18 percent from the
previously projected total of
1.02 million head for the
month December cow
slaughter is estimated at 1.3
million head. This figure, up
23 percent from previous
projections, is considerably
greater than expected by
most observers.
The projections referred to
in the ANCA report are
monthly and annual cow
slaughter rates previously
estimated as being needed in
1975 and on into 1976 in order
to put cow numbers in better
balance with beef demand.
The projections and recent
estimates were made by
economists with Cattle-Fax,
