BETTER FEEDING
HEALTHY—HEAVIER—VIGOROUS LAMBS The early health, birthweight and growth of lambs is closely related to the feeding, health and milk' supply of the ewe. The effect of variation of nutrition during the last two months of pregnancy is as great, perhaps greater on her udder development than on the weight .of her unborn lamb. During a Ifiweek suckling period, ewes well-fed before lambing give almost twice as much milk as ewes ill-fed before lambing. How vitally important it is then that ewes-in-lamb should receive, all the essential nutrients to produce better lambs, good flow, and maintain their health. Poor feeding is npt necessarily under-feeding, but can occur through of nutrients. “Peerless”" Sheep Nuts provide a scientifically balanced ration of essential and extra nutrients, at the time when needed most. Feed “Peerless” Sheep Nuts with UrCa—and be sure your flock is properly and wisely fed: Obtainable from Stock and Station Agents and produced by the Animal Nutrition Division.—D’. H.
