P. Elmslie of Moorman’s Research Laboratories says that one of the basic principles of their research was ■ to develop a concentrate that would fit any feeding program. “Whether you’re dry lot feeding— ■grain feeding on pasture—or feeding roughage only”, Dr. Elmslie says, “MoorMan’s Steer Mintrate helps >. cattle. gain faster and finish sooner”. This type of research explains why MoorMan’s feeds have gained wide acceptance and why Moormans is one of the fastest growing feed companies . in the United States. Because of this rapid growth, a local man or two is needed in this county to represent the Company. It is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious wide-awake man. Previous feed Sales experience is helpful but not necessary. Many of our successful men did not have feed sales experience before joining Moormans.
