TO WHAT EASTERN FARMERS
ARE SAYING ABOUT
HOF
"We’ve used Hoffman Silage Inoculator
for two years. We put up high moisture
ground shelled com by spreading the in
oculator on the corn in the bin on the com
bine and letting it get mixed that way. We
found we could feed the treated high
moisture corn right into the hot weather.
We have also checked it on haylage. We
are more than well satisfied with it."

SILAGE INOCULATOR.
“We find that by using Hoffman Silage
Inoculator we have consistent high quality
haylage eliminating hot spots and heating
and sour smell, should it be too wet. It also
improved the corn silage no mold, etc. It
produces a sweet smell and the cows
relish it. We also like it because it doesn’t
eat up the equipment.”

“Normally, seepage starts about one
week after silo filling. This year I had no
seepage and the moisture was at least the
•*me, if not higher, than In the past several
years. Two_of my neighbors tried it and
think it’s the best product they have ever
used. They tried other products, but were
not satisfied with the results. It really does
what the literature-says it will do.’’
