These latest figures show, according to the National Dairy
Council, that the housewife has an 89 per cent harder time in
sticking to her home food budget than she did before the war.
Money goes fast—foods cost SO per cent mot;, But, the Dairy
Council adds, “it is gratifying to note that mi'k—which does more
for good nutrition than any other single food—has risen 13.8 per
cent LESS than the average for ail foods during this period of high
prices.”

ASK ABOUT OUR BUDGET PLAN
Akin’s Pontiac Service
Q. Is it more profitable to feed a
dry calf starter than to feed calves
whole nKlk?
A. Yes. According to the Nutrition
Council of the American Feed Man-
ufacturers Association, at the pres-
ent time 100 lbs. of dry calf starter
costs about the same or less than
the selling price of 100 lbs. of whole
milk, and yet 100 lbs. of dry starter
will replace 300 to 500 lbs. of liquid
milk. Other advantages of a dry calf
starter are:
1. Simplifies calf feeding and saves
much time.
2. Eliminates the bother of keep-
ing milk warm and keeping
pails clean.
3. Greatly reduces dangers of di-
gestive upset due to improper
feeding.
Q. How warm should the brooder
house be?
A. The Research Farm of the
Ralston Purina Company has found
that chicks do best when they are
started at a temperature of 90°. This
temperature should be dropped 5° a
week until it is down to 60’ where
it should be held as long as the
chicks need heat.
Q. What age do you recommend
for vaccinating, castrating, and
weaning pigs?
A. It is better not to pile too much
trouble on little pigs at one time.
Castration, vaccination, and wean-
ing should be spaced two to three
weeks apart, and we recommend
castrating your pigs at four weeks
of age, vaccinating them at six
weeks, and weaning at nine weeks.
Q. What is a pedigree registry cer-
tificate, and how does it differ from
a breeding certificate?
A. A pedigree registry certificate
certifies that an animal is accepted
as eligible for registration in its
breed association and is bred as
stated, while a breeding certificate
merely certifies that the signer’s
buil, stallion, boar or ram served the
specified female on a certain date.
