Ask the Old Farmer: I recall that an old
neighbor of mine always smoked a clay
pipe referred to as a "T D " Do I remem
ber correctly 7 If so, whence the initials 7
LF C, Boston
We can answer part of pour question The old,
original clay pipes bearing the letters "T D "
were made in Scotland and the fetters were
the initials of the names of the two partners
who owned the works We don't recall the
names

Figure it for yourself.
You’re money ahead when you feed
Milk Replacer No. 22.
Trying to figure a way to get calves off to a healthy
start at less cost’
You’re money ahead when you feed Milk
Replacer No. 22. This high-energy product contains
20% fat and extra levels of milk sugar along with
just the right balance of vitamins, minerals, and
milk proteins plus antibiotic.
For every 50 lb. bag of No. 22 you feed, you sell an
extra 600 pounds of milk.
That’s extra money in the bank, and your figures
will prove it.
Build your own starter for less.
After two or three days on Milk Replacer No. 22,
your calves will be ready for an 18% protein starter.
