Records recently compiled by district agricultural inspector, John E. Blazzard, show that 46,61 pounds of calcium chlorate have been applied to weed infestations in various parts of the county during 1935. White top and wild morning glory have been the principal weeds treated. Most of the work has been confined to waterways, canals, roadways, and infence lines, with many small on farms. treated festations being The chemical has been applied at the rate of three to twelve pounds per square rod of ground, according to the kind of weed.

The local sugar factory, which is expected to close its campaign Thursday, will have cut more than 100,000 tons of beets, according to Orson A. Christensen, superintendent of agriculture. The run this year was increased over past yearB due to several minor improvements at the factory. There was an increase in pulp and molasses purchases by Bear River valley farmers which they feed to small flocks of sheep and cattle. This is considered a healthy condition, Mr. Christensen said.

The system, says the companys announcement, possesses all the inherent advantages of hydraulic brake actuation, plus the special benefits that Chevrolet has built into its own type of articulated brake shoes and linkage by which pedal pressure is converted into braking effect. Ease of brake adjustment to compensate for wear Is one of the features of Chevrolets exclusive brake design. There is only one adjusting point for each brake shoe, reached an opening in the brake through City flange plate or the brake drum. With a screw driver used as a lever, a notched adjusting wheel is turned until the shoe slightly drags on the drum, then the adjusting wheel is backed off four notches, completing the operation.
