Here's a Good Combination.

In this hunt for the profit dollar
keep an eye on the combination Of ensi-
lage and clover or alfalfa hay. There
is no other combination of feed like 1t
for results in milk. A farmer could
take these two pieces of forage and
with good COWS and no grain he could
come out at the end of the year with a
fair profit. OF course a few pounds of
grain feed a day is good investment.
