PROTEIN
Don't buy it
grow your own
Good alfalfa hayiage may be
20% to 25% crude protein.
90% of the digestible protein
is in the leaves. Losing the
leaves costs you money. With
a Harvestore feed processing
system, you can harvest your
alfalfa in the bud stage, when
it’s most nutritious. Cut and
windrow one day, blow it into
your Harvestore the next. Bal
ing and hard labor are elimi
nated. The valuable leaves are
saved. Supplement purchases
may be drastically reduced.
Your feed is more palatable,
more nutritious. Check it out.

A former ITYE to Korea
and 4-H director in the tame
county, Boyd espreaaed the
need for Americana to grasp
the challenge of com
mitment in this country and
abroad.
Boyd noted that while the
United States should be
willing to give aid in the form
of food, other countries
rirould also be willing to
work toward sell
anfßdency.
•Technical help is im
portant,” Boyd explained,
“countries should accept the
responsibility of learning to
feed their own.”
Citing Korea as an
example, Boyd told the
group that agricultural
technology from the United
States had helped the
country develop a new strain
of rice that has increased
production of that crop by SO
percent “Tins is the kind of
help we should be giving," he
related.
Bojd explained that
America is looked oo as the
“miimmcn of good and
honesty” and that even
though our country has been
plagued with problems, “itls
time tested and will prevail
to weather the storm.”

I bear considerable
discussinn recently about the
new grading system for beef
cattle. At this point bow do
we know exactly what effect
this will have for the
prodncer or the consumer.
However, I’d suggest that
women for their con
tributions to the Farm and
Home Center as well as their
role in agriculture.
“Farm women are the real
heroines of the bicen
tennial,” be remarked.
‘They represent i real
iwHiiitmut to our history.”
