JC AGE is of little val ue if it allows the concen trated food# to sift to the bot tom of the trough and be come separated fr&m it. There is no danger of this with r?*?f majHl RUCKtYF V HULLS V LINTLC3A when they are wetted down a half hour or so before using. Then they combine more thoroughly and uni formly with the other forage than the old style hulls. Use Buckeye Hulls properly and you will find them a better roughage than old style hulls and far more eco nomical. ( Other Advantage* Buckeye Hulls cost much less than old style hulls. They allow better assimilation of food. No trash or dust. No lint. 2000 pounds real roughage to the ton?not 1500 pounds of rough, age and 500 pounds of lint. Sacked?easv to handle. Take less space in the barn. Mr. E, W. Leonard, Ellendale, Te has been feeding Buckeye Hulls to three milch cows. He says that the cows are ?faring more mitk end butter and are in fine condition. He prefers Buckeye Hulls, To >ecur? the best results and te develop the ensilsge odor, Wet the hulk thoroughly twelve hours before feeding. It b easy to do this by wetting them down night and morning for the next feeding. If at any time this cannot be done, wet down at least thirty minutes. If you prefer te feed the hulls dry, use only Wf as much by bulk as ef old style bulls. Book of Mixed Feed? Ftee Gives the right formula for every Combination of feeds used in the South.
