Why Is a Feed Manufacturer? 
{Continued from page ,{05) 
gluten and the other ingredients come from, 
they are bound to contain a certain amount of 
tramp iron, nails, pieces of wire, shreds of steel 
from milling machinery—a formidable collec¬ 
tion of “junk” of all kinds that is highly dan¬ 
gerous to cows. Many cows fall sick and die 
from swallowing nails, tacks and bits of wire in 
their feed. 
All of this matter must be removed from his 
ration by the feed manufacturer. There may 
be a great deal of it, or there may only be a 
small amount. It makes no difference. The 
feed manufacturer must have his machinery 
and electro-magnets always at work, exerting 
their magnetic force upon the finished product, 
if he is to be sure that his customers are not 
playing hide and seek with the danger of losing 
valuable Tows. 
These things are done nowadays by the 
feed manufacturer because the dairyman 
himself cannot take the time to do them and 
because all of these operations require equip¬ 
ment which it would not pay an individual 
farmer to buy and use solely for himself and 
his neighbors. 
What is back of all this care? Ask a manu¬ 
facturer why he is in business and he will tell 
you, if he is honest, that his object is to make 
money. If he is also wise he knows that the 
only way he can make money is to give his 
customers the fullest possible value for every 
dollar they spend for his goods. He also knows 
that this value must include all the things we 
mean by that much abused word called “ser¬ 
vice.” He must render service, not on paper, 
but in fact. He must help his customers in 
every -way and in many ways that give no im¬ 
mediate promise of results. 
Farmers are just beginning to apply busi¬ 
ness principles to dairying, to treat their cows 
with the same care that they treat the engine 
of an automobile, and check up on the milk 
mileage they get out of their cows. Feed 
manufacturers are helping farmers and dairy¬ 
men to do this. They are putting authorita¬ 
tive information into their hands about the 
care and feeding of cows. They are employing 
feeding specialists who do nothing else but 
study feeding problems and write letters to 
people who ask assistance. They also go and 
see these farmers when the occasion requires, 
and they employ as salesmen trained men who 
know and like cows and who, very often, are 
expert feeders themselves. 
It is said that some day America, like the 
European countries, will cease to be primarily 
a meat-eating nation, and that we will eat 
more milk products and vegetables. There is 
good evidence .that this prophecy is coming- 
true, for our western ranges no longer boast the 
vast herds of beef cattle they once did. The 
dairy cow is supplanting the beef cow. People 
want more milk than meat. Many .western 
range beef cows have sold this year at a profit of 
$10 a head for their owners, while dairy cows 
in the same market netted their owners a profit 
ten times as great. Dairying is <on the up 
swing. Milk products are coming into their 
own. Milk consumption is increasing very 
rapidly. 
We feed manufacturers are working hard to 
help this great movement, to help spread the 
gospel of better cows, better care, better feed, 
and more milk for every man, woman and 
child. It is the message of .health, the message 
of service to humanity. It looks to the realiza¬ 
tion of a big shining ideal which transcends all 
considerations of profit and lifts the entire 
dairy industry from the plane of commonplace 
business to that of a magnificent crusade for 
healthier children and healthier grown-ups.

and in its management. — Geo. W. Fenner,
