Low-cal beef booklet

CHICAGO, m. - Con
sumer demand for recipes
and information about
dieting presents the beef
industry with a good op
portunity for marketing its
product.
To help take advantage of
that opportunity, the Beef
Industry Council of the Meat
Board recently announced
publication of its new 16-
page booklet “Slim Down
with Low-Calorie Beef
Recipes.”
The full-color, illustrated
booklet offers 13 delicious
low-calorie beef recipes,
along with menu
suggestions, nutrition in
formation, tips on cookery
and weight reduction and
information on maintaining
weight once the diet is over.
“Recent consumption
studies show that beef eating
tends to increase slightly
when people are on a weight
reducton diet,” says Jay H.
Wardell, the Beff Industry
Council’s Promotion
Manager.

sellers fould guilty of
violations could receive a
maximum $5,000 penalty per
offense.
The Agency estimated the
cost to the pesticide industry
of making new labels for the
2000 restricted products at $4
to $4.5 million.
The 23 ingredients were
proposed for restricted use
on September 1. Copies of
the list of restricted products
may be obtained from EPA,
Office of Pesticide
Programs, Operations
Division (WH-570), 401 M
Street, SW., Washington,
D.C. 20460.
“There’s good reason for
this,” Wardell says. “Beef is
what nutritionists call a
‘high nutrient density’ food,
one which gives you a lot of
nutrients in comparison to
the calories it contains. This
makes it an ideal food for
weight reduction."

Therefore, the new

tightening measure to make

For Better Hay, Haylage
and Corn Silage
Ray V. Hollenshead
Mercersburg, Pa.
Ray can’t afford to
use poor quality roughages
Ray’s another satisfied Silo-King
customer. He treats his hay with Silo-King
because he can cut his drying time con
siderably He wants and needs top quality
roughage. Ray can bale high moisture hay,
thus saving most of the leaves. He tells us,
“To be able to make -hay like this is the
best thing that ever happened l ”
Due to drying problems, he was serious
ly considering putting up some type of silo
for hayiage But, Ray preferred to feed
more dry roughage if he could. By using
Silo-King, his problems were solved
This year Ray baled his hay by windrow
ing, without turning it. He mowed it at the
same time his neighbors mowed their hay.
Yet, he was able to bale his hay by the time
his neighbors were just raking theirs.
Ray mows his hay pre-bloom to 10%
bloom He starts baling at 25% moisture
plus and makes his bales very tight and
immediately stacks them snugly in the
barn Then, he is able to forget about it,
because he treats a ton of hay with a
pound of Silo-King

ditional one million head of

Canada and Mexico an
nually. The combined
pressure from these groups
and from Congress has
brought about the tighter
controls at this particular
time.
At this point, there is no
real estimate of how 1 much
this ruling will mean for
American beef producers in
dollars and cents.
“We don’t really have a
way of checking just how
much of the meat we pur
chased was imported,”
stated Condon. He doesn’t
believe, however, that the
ruling will have much of an
affect on the cattle market
prices.

Ray and his Silo-King treated,
top quality hay!!
D.H.I.A. herd average of 20,900 pounds of
milk and 785 pounds of butterfat last year
coupled with 21,000 pounds and 790
pounds this year, Ray can’t afford to use
poor quality roughages. By treating his
hay with Silo-King, he can get more dry
matter into each cow per day. In fact, Ray
feeds this top quality, Silo-King treated
hay five times a day!
top management - can be seen
everywhere on the Ray Hollenshead farm
Management and top quality feed have
brought Ray tremendous results. Great
job, Ray - and Silo-King.
