Grade Heifer Calves of any Dairy Breed bom after July 20th, 1921, were eligible. Competitors could select any kind of food they desired, and in addition to new milk, skim milk and whey, the following Proprietary Poods were used by different competitors—“ Moose” Linseed Meal; Meggit’s Linseed Meal Geremlik; Tui Meal; Palmer’s Calf Foodj'iSilruth Meal, and Faterlne—as well as such foods as Pollard, Oatmeal, Ground Linseed; Crushed Oats, Oat Cake, and Oil Cake. V According to Rule 5 of the Competition, calves were not Judged on breed or dairy points, but upon the result of feeding, care and economy in rearing, the aim being to produce the best result at lowest cost. The Championship resulted as follows, points being awarded to (1) Cost of Feeding, {£) Chart, (3) Condition. Championship Results: 1. Harry Lumbers (Ararata): 89, 32, 100—Total 221, Fed on New Milk and “Faterine,” Costing 10s 9d. 2. Dorothy Wood (Rawhltiora), 75*, 48, 96— Total 219*. Fed on New and Skim Milk, Costing £1 4s Bd. 3. Jack Whittington (Rawhitiora): 82*, 38, 98—Total, 207*. Fed on Skim Milk, Costing 17s 4d. Competitors were divided into groups according to district, the 166 competitors competing in eighteen groups of whioii 12 were won by proprietary foods. How sweeping was the victory of “Faterlne” will be seen from the results in these twelve groups. “Faterlne” gained first place In eight groups, besides securing 7 seconds and 7 thirds. The following Is a list of the Croup winners showing the very high percentage of points obtained for condition by the successful “Faterine” users. - Fed on. Points Gained for Condition. Maximum 100.

The group results show that calves fed on “Faterlne” positively and invariably Improve to a greater extent than those fed on any other food. WORTH ACL THE TEA IN BHINA. Kai Iwi, 20th Sept., 1921. "1 can highly recommend your ‘Faterine’ as an excellent food for' calves, etc. I have not had any trouble to get calves or pigs to t#ke' it. I have not reared such a fine lot of wives before as those roared on ‘Faterine.’ ,1 -mill always have a good word for it. “ ‘ Faterine ’ saves time and labour, which is a deal in farming. Whenever ‘Faterine’ is to be had 1 will have it,"-you may take my word for that. It is worth all the tea in China.” It. C.-CAPON. BETTER THAN CALVES REARED ON MEALS. Bunnythorpe, 7th June, 1922. “Kindly forward me four gallons of ‘Faterino’ for the oetiling season. I used three gallons last year, and reared ten Jersey calves. I used ‘Faterine’ with water and waste Glaxo Powder. I found it more than satisfactory- It mixed easily with Glaxo and water. .Tim calves relished it, and are now in good healthy condition and wintering their coats, having a line silky appearance. They are better than the calves I reared on meal, and if anyone cares to inspect can see for themselves.- I might say that one of my calves suffered from scours, and ‘Faterine’ quickly cured it of this complaint. “I can highly recommend ‘Faterine’ to all Dairymen, and it is a great labour saver, as no boiling or scalding is required. Th© cost of rearing is very cheap, only costing me for ten calves £3/7/6, or 6/7 per head.” For GOODRICH AND TAYLOR, _ v T. J. TAYLOR. HIGHLY SATISFACTORY— ORDERS REPEATED. , " Papatawa, June Bth, 1922. “Several of our suppliers used ‘Faterine’ during the past season for feeding both calves and pigs. The result of feeding with the above was highly satisfactory. After hiving it a trial, they repeated their orders with us. »Ve intend- placing ‘Faterine’ at the disposal of our swpplieis te 11., eonmg scasoß.” BAKER, rr Chairman, Papatawa Dairy Co. TESTIMONIALS MORE THAN PLEASED WITH RESULTS. Levin, 2nd June, 1922. “We can confidently recommend this ‘Faterine’ to dairy farmers as an ideal preparation to replace the butter fat content of whole milk. “It is very simple to deal with, and being very easy to prepare, is an immense saving of time compared with other calf foods. “We have used it for two seasons, and are more than pleased with the result. The calves thrive well and show a very fine coat. “This calf food is undoubtedly a money saver—once used, always used.” VALLANCE AND MORTENSON, p.p. H. MORTENSON. HORSE’S CONDITION IMPROVED BEYOND ALL EXPECTATIONS. Feilding, 9th June, 1922. “I have purchased from you one gallon ‘Faterine’ which I have tested out on my thoroughbred horse ‘California,’ which before using ‘Faterine’ was in a very low state of cdndit'iou; in fact, as low as .he could possibly get. Since using ‘Faterine’ as directed, one tin mixed with the feed, the horse has improved beyond all expectations, which has been an eye-opener to me, after my forty years’ experience of horses. The liorso took ‘Faterine’ very readily; in fact, from the first feed on. I liayo no hesitation in recommending ‘Faterine’ for general lise amongst horses.” CHAS. L. LAGOR. CURES SCOURS VERY QUICKLY. Carnarvon, Juno Bth, 1932. “In reference to the ‘Faterine’ which I purchased from you last year, I wish to state that 1 was more than satisfied with tlio results. 1 started my calves on meal, which I found was not very satisfactory, as the calves scoured very badly. I saw ‘Faterine’ advertised, so decided to try some, which I found cured the scours in a very short period. From then on the calves never looked back, and always had a beautiful silky coat. I found that the calves took to ‘Faterine’ very readily, and also find that tho calves are wintering splendidly. “I have no hesitation in recommending ‘Faterine’ to all dairymen, as the cost is not nearly so high, no boiling, time saved, and results excellent. I intend using ‘Faterine’ this year with my pigs, as well as calves.” C. W. PEDERSEN. CALVES HAVE THRIVED WONDERFULLY. To Awamutu, Nov. 15th, 1921. “In reference to the four gallons of ‘Faterine’ supplied by your firm, 1 beg to slate that 1 am well satisfied with the feeding qualities of same. The calves have thrived wonderfully; in fact, when 1 have happened to run out of ‘Faterine’ 1 generally have troublo with some at feeding time until I get my stock replenished again.” J. T. YOUNG, Director of Dairy Association, Hamilton. A SAVING OF NEARLY £5 PER HEAD. Manuka u, Bth Juno, 1922. “In reference to the ‘Faterine’ which I procured through your agents, Messrs. Newton, King, Ltd., of New Plymouth, Taranaki, last year. Will you kindly forward me five gallons for the coming season, as I am highly pjeased with the results? 1 have thoroughly tested ‘Faterine’ out on my Pedigree Bull Calf, a grandson of ‘His Majesty Fox,’ and he is in such fine condition that 1 am showing him in the Mjuiawatu Show in November. “1 used the ‘Faterine’ with separated milk, and the other calves i reared on new milk. The result has been a surprise to me, as I find that the ‘Faterine’ calf is superior in every way to the calves reared on new milk, having a much healthier appearance, better coats, better condition, better growth and constitution, and is thriving better through tho winter. “J found ‘Faterine’ easy to mix with separated milk, and the bucket licked clean, and no trouble or labour attached lo its preparation, as in the case of meals. Tho cost of feeding is a great saving; only costing me a_ few shillings, whereas my new milk calves cost me over £5 per head. “My experience has been that ‘Faterine,’ used with separated milk, has given better results in every way than new milk, besides saving me nearly £5 per head in the rearing cost.” M. F. MILES'. *22 CALVES REARED AT 3/- PER HEAD. . Himitangi, 6th June, 1922. “I used ‘Faterine’ last season, and am very satisfied with the results, and found it very easy to mix. My calves are thriving very well through the winter, and the calves get very fond of the food from the very beginning. “I have reared 22 calves on ‘Falerino’ at- a cost of -£3 7s 6d, or 3/- per head, which speaks for itself. “1 shall require some for the forthcoming season.” J. W. STUCKEY. 30 CALVES COST LfSS THAN 3/- EACH TO REAR. Kairanga Road, Bunnythorpe, Gth June,l922. “In reference to the ‘Faterine’ we purchased from you last year, we wish to inform you that we thoroughly tested out 'Faterino 1 with our grade Jersey and Pedigree' calves with astonishing results. Wo used ‘Faterine’ with separated milk on aO of our calves. We found it cured all cases of Blood Scours and Colds. After they were weaned they were turned out at Siberia, and some on our Bunnythorpe farm, and we liavo just inspected all the calves, and were very pleased to see what fine condition they were in, and how well they are thriving through the winter. “This is the cheapest and best Stock Food wo have ever used, and on all our stocks we only expended £1 on ‘Faterine,’ whereas a calf—a pedigree—which we reared on New Milk cost us £5, and the 30 ‘Faterine’ calves are equal in condition and constitution, at a cost of less than 3/-, plus the cost of separated milk, as against £5 per head with new milk. “Please send us along eight gallons, as we intend using it for the coining season.” For HOUGHTON AND SONS, E. A. HOUGHTON. A. H. HOUGHTON. Hawera, 15th June, 1922. The Faterine Foods, Ltd., AUCKLAND. Dear Sirs, — “I tried out the ‘Faterine’ I'purchased from you last March for pigs, and the results have astonished me. I need only give you tho comparison in weights from the eleven weaners, all the same age—six of these having been fed on ‘Faterine,’ the other five being fod on whoy, cereals and root crops. Those reared on ‘Faterine’ and whey brought the following weights at tho llawera Abbatoirs: — 1021bs, 831bs, 821bs, 761bs, and 72lbs; total, 4871b5, or an average weight of 81 1-Ctlig lbs. “The other five, 571bs, sGlbs, 421bs, and 381bs, total 2351b5, or an average weight of 471bs, showing a difference., in favour of those fed on ‘Faterine’ of 34 l-6ths per pig; and, in addition, these latter five took ten weeks longer to fatten. Those on ‘Faterine’ had fine silky coats and skins, a healthy appearance, as compared with those fed on cereals and root crops. These results with ‘Faterine’ have been an eyu-opener to me.” Yours faithfully, (Sgd.) A. J.
