The planting of better corn to feed stock of improved blood lines has thus benefited the stock raiser by increasing his production of A-1 meat.

Stock raisers know that the tender juiciness of good beef and pork is produced in the corn field.

And, of course, the animals that produce the choicest meats bring their producers the highest prices. That's why we have a department which cooperates with the University of Wisconsin and the Departments of Agriculture in making available to livestock raisers valuable feeding and management information.
