Figure it for yourself.
You get better feed conversion
lower cost of gain with corn-soy
Vigortone.
If you’re feeding hogs from birth-to-market, corn
soy and Vigortone will make you more money Your
figures will prove it
Start out with more uniform litters at less cost
with Vigortone’s Sow Prep No 4A When feeding
less than four lbs of /feed, use Sow Prep No 54
You’ll have big savings over self-feeding programs
Then, save 50% on your pre-starter rations with
Vigortone’s Creep Wean No 3 This highly potent
pre-mix contains vitamins, .minerals and ammo
acids that assure fast growth right through
weaning Your baby pigs will really go for this
highly palatable pre-starter because you grind and
mix it yourself fresh
Add your choice of antibiotic to your pre-starter,
or use Creep Wean No 3C with Mecadox * It con
trols swme dysentery and bacterial swine enteritis.
