HFAA classifier explains linear plan PAHKESBUHG - Carl W. Heist, classifier tor the Holstem- Fnesian Association of America will be in the Chester County area to explain the new linear who needs them? Quality roughage alone can provide much of the protein and energy needed for milk production. But since roughages may Jack both balance and quantity of minerals necessary for maximum milk production, bone and muscle development, and the most efficient utilization of other nutrients—many dairymen need a mineral supplement program. How can you tell if you need a mineral supplement program? Let us make a free analysis of your forage crops. We'll give you a report on the nutrient value of your hay, silage, or other roughages, along with recommendations for any supplements—if necessary. We won't try to sell you anything you don't need! Our three mineral mixes—Beacon Phos-Min, Beacon Mineral Ade and Beacon Cal-Min—are formulated by highly respected dairy nutrition specialists. The supplement they recommend will contain the necessary minerals to make up deficiencies or imbalance in your roughages and to achieve the proper calcium-phosphorus ratio in your total feeding program. You can rest assured that you aren't paying extra for exotic ingredients, high transportation cost, and expensive promotion and sales cost. With BEACON, you get more mineral units per dollar invested. Mineral supplements, formulated especially for the cow at reasonable cost, are part of what we call "No nonsense feeding".

Many other firms, however, have cited the need for an im partial third party to provide standards, supervise services, maintain a reinspection and ap peals system and offer negotiable certificates that may be used to obtain credit and are admissible in court. Without these important elements, many in the industry fear, the climate may be established to foster the abuses which led to the creation of the Federal Gram Inspection Service in 1976.

I believe it is in the interest of the gram industry to support our entire program, including research, standardization and special services. If adequate support is not maintained, some lower priority programs may have to be curtailed. 1 am confident the Federal Grain Inspection Service will remain the impartial, independent referee in the market place for the gram industry.
