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, com
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 grmd 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 swine dysentery and bacterial swine enteritis.
