That's why Vigortone developed Dairy Special 40XX for use in legume hay or haylage rations. This potent pre-mix contains abundant phosphorus to balance off the high calcium content of these roughages and provides proper levels of other major minerals, trace minerals and vitamins. Legume programs are well balanced with Dairy Special 40XX, and the need for supplemental protein is much less. Best of all, your cows soon respond to their full bred-in potential to produce milk. 50 warehouses—over 4500 servicemen fiMalllY SC 3 manufacturing plants rW*m PI lAE9 RON L.

Capons aren’t supposed to crow, but Roy has captured the grand champion award for his capon project twice in one year. In November, Mr. Robert Woodward judged the York Co. 4-H capon round-up and gave Roy’s dressed capon a first place ribbon. Roy took another dressed capon to the Pa. Farm Show in January and there it was judged the best dressed capon in the class again. Roy, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Rodman C. Thompson, East Berlin, has been a 4-H member for five years. Joining 4-H when he was eight, he took over the capon project from his sister Shirely, who had won the National Poultry award in 1972; so he was no new comer in the poultry field. He has been a consistent winner of the first and second placed dressed capon at every 4-H round-up since he has taken the project. A member of the seventh grade class at the in termediate school in Spring Grove, Roy carries other 4-H an t- ~ *>*, **'■•*£• s s . 1 projects such as dairy hanydmay and tractor.
