I've often talked to you about the poultryr.irn who misty try to ’’save” money on their feeding by mixing their I ’ ed ’ Now this ta just a little incident along 'he saute i'ne but 1 it Is niightil} important to dairymen. For n ny dairymen are % like many poultrymen—thc cost of feed loo h tto big that in p their efforts to save on the buying they lose .-dght Ol the tact that It's results and profits that count. . , i Here's that incident about which I Juat spoke. One of 0 ..ur salesmen in Indiana reeentiy told this in a report. He said: “I B m glad to report that I have never had a complaint 1 on any Pratt Sweet Dairy Feed. ’’A farmer near Aurora has a son who is also a dairyman A and h« told his father not to spend his money tor these comI mercial dairy feeds but to JUM hu> some ground o-ta and feed it with his rorn. This he did. I he oats cost him 10 cenLs p:-r 100 lbs. more than tbe Trait Dairy Feed which he had been using and h,* milk check lor the week was *1.22 less, showing a loss of *1 “2.

There Is no way of so mi rely convincing a man as by way of his pocketboo). That goes for dairy feeds, poultry feed*, pix feed*, horn feeds, wtoek feeds and well, most everything else in life. i’-H* The more we learn about feeding the more we find that It is Impractical and unprofitable tor dairymen and poultrymen to trj to mix ood dairy feed or poultry mash for themselves.
