anyone honestly charge the farmer

What causes stiffness

Should hlocK

« bGTOKG COWS? ^
. vU'.'V'l tt—(.)■ I| jwt.t.'U-I.J .' WvAl)J)l
1. Such stiffness is usually due to a
nutritional deficiency, chiefly cal-
cium, and occurs among swine that
are fed almost entirely on grain.
Grains are low in calcium even
though they contain plenty of phos-
phorous. Feeding a supplement to
give hogs a balanced diet will usu-
ally overcome this trouble, and a
good supplement can also save grain
for the hog raiser.
2. The national average is only
about 155 eggs from 100 lbs. of feed.
But with todaj ’s good breeding and
balanced rations, a complete laying
mash should average at least 185
eggs per bag of feed and may go up
to 230 eggs or more. The Ralston
Purina Company is now conducting
an unusual contest for poultrymen
on this point, featuring seven rules
of good management which can in-
crease “eggs per bag.” A booklet
outlining the seven rules and a con-
test entry blank may be obtained
without charge from any Purina
Dealer.
3. Yes, as the amount of salt dairy
cows need is almost entirely an In-
dividual proposition, varying witU
the size of the cows, the type of ra-
tion, and the amount of milk pro-
duced. In addition, some com
seem to have a special appetite for
extra salt. Milking rations should
contain 1% salt, but block salt
should also be available for the
cows to eat according to their In-
dividual desires.
Send your questions about live-
stock or poultry problems direct
to FARM FACTS, 835 South Eighth
St., St. Louis 2, Missouri, or bring-
them to Watson’s Feed and Hatch-
i ery and they will be sent in for yon.
