while using only natural air, would dry
down corn quite nicely. Well the AERO
DRY COMPUTER™ enables us to use
the air only when conditions ARE
RIGHT to rapidly bring the corn
moisture to where we want it. AND we
do not aerate until we need to - thus
saving you tremendous amounts of
money AND time spent babysitting

purchased S.R. Roxy Lotus Ella,
consigned by Spruce Row Farm, of
Meadville, for the third highest
price of |1320. This cow has a 3-
year-old projected record of 12,556
lbs. of milk and 585 lbs. of fat.

daughter of Brigham Val Zev of
Ogston bred to Milestones
Generator.
This heifer brought 11350 and
will make her new home on the
Cumberland Valley Farm of Bill
and Susan Dietrich in Newburg.

THE AERO DRY™
FLOOR SYSTEM
Looks strange, doesn't it? H your floor
does not look like this, you’ve got a
floor designed to only AERATE! Our
floor was designed to DRY!! Our floor is
23% open. An aerating floor is usually
only 11 to 12 percent open. You would
have a bottleneck.
