BETTER FEEDS
~ SPRING RATIONING FOR DAIRY COWS

Grass alone is uneconomical feeding

Spring grass is a high Protein tonic—but it lacks the fats and car-
bohydrates necessary for proper balance. Grass, alone, results in
high production for a few weeks, accompanied by rapid loss of flesh.

A balanced ration is the only economical ration

A suitable carbohydrate grain mixture for cows on &Tass means
higher milk production and continued good flesh. Poor milk pro-
duction in winter is the direct result of poor grain feeding in summer

Ascot investment—are you making it?

peated tests show returns of $2.00 and often $3.00 for every dollar
expended for grain on pasture.

Let these “better feeds” prove themselves
Diamond Brand “SPRING 125” and “SUMMER. 16” are ideal for
pasture grain feeding. Feed at the rate of 1lb. Dairy Feed to 5ibs milk

Mineral feeding important

‘Minerals are most effective when cows are consuming green roughage
exposed to the medicinal action of sunshine.

All Diamond Brand “Better Feeds” are scientifically mineralized.
