If you've noticed that the cream content of your milk
goes down at this time of year, it may indicate that your
dairy cows are not getting all the feed they need for
heavy production. Those first blades of grass aren't as
good as they look, for they won't give the cows all the
proteins they require. So don't turn your dairy cattle
out to Craze and expect them to take care of all their
feed requirements with early pasture.
Supplement their spring ration of grass with grain and
protein supplement mixture, and hay -. grain and pro-
tein supplement for milk production, hay for necessary
~roughage. This tonic is sure to put new spring IN the
step of an undernourished COW.
The best indication of contentment in the dairy herd
is the butterfat test of your milk

A LOT of credit goes to our Agricultural Colleges and
n Experiment Stations where men spend their lives
working out improved methods of breeding and feeding.
For example, E. F. Ferrin, head of the swine division
of the University of Minnesota, recently ran a feeding
test with seven lots of pigs. He found that too small an
amount of protein in the ration produces more runtS,
slower gains and less profit.

For Radio Listeners
BY Bryson Rash

There is a great deal of Juror at
the moment in the trade about the
commercials on radio broadcaSts.
Some stations have entirely banned
singing commercials and iingles,
some have banned any transcribed
announcement during the evening
hours and, of course, there are some
who want to do away with CONNER
Gals entirely Not being the retiring
sort, We thought it might be a good
idea to explore the situation little.
Think for moment of banning
commercials entirely and doing away
with commercial programs. The
alternative to this is Government
control of radio because no one else
could afford it. The medium would
be supported by taxation and the
whole fundamental structure of
radio would be changed from giving
the audience what it wants" to "giv-
ing the audience what some one
thinks it ought to have" and the
latter can get extremely boring.
In the matter of jingles and sing
ing commercials, the cry is to do
away with them, Danish them to the
lililDO vi lOl SOllCil AIlCl lllS
is a generalization and dangerous.
We will go along Fundamentally
with the idea that some jingles,
some singing commercials are OBJ
jectionable and should be taken off i,
but not all of them, in sweeping
edict. Believe us, radio manage
ment Is made up of some of the most
public-opinion conscious executives
that you will find anywhere, and If a
radio program or commercial Is not
acceptable to an audience, radio
management will probably be the
first to take it off the air without
any prodding at all.
Surely there Is some unlistenable
radio, but the vast amount of broad
casting is interesting, entertaining
and informative. What is bad will
not last long and what Is good will
probably be improved, so string along
with radio, as Is, for while.
