If you must warm up the tractor indoors, open windows and doors for maximum ventilation, carbon monoxide cannot be detected by odor, warns Joseph F. Parrish, Salt Lake County Agricultural Agent. Firm footing for cranking helps prevent accidents. Spread sand or ashes on icy ground before cranking the tractor. When draining it at night use a pail to catch water if it is likely to collect and freeze over night. Be sure crank handle is free of ice and tractor is out of ' gear. Use clutch carefully. Clean ice and snow off clutch and soles of boots. Be sure foot is set firmly on clutch pedal. Clean the platforms. Ice and snow should be cleared from platforms, steps, axles, and other points used for footing when nfounting the tractor. Don't hurdle into or out of the seat Keep clear of drive wheel whenever possible. Observe traffic rules. Drive your tractor as you should your car-k- eep to the right; signal for turns "and stops; travel a reasonable speed; light tractor properly at night. Keep alert! Sit so that all controls are accessible and so that a sudden lurch cannot throw you from the seat. Stay off soft shoulders. Avoid roads. Stear around deep ruts or road holes. Go slowly on gravel or other loose surfaced roads. Find as level a spot as possible to drive onto the road from roadside ditches. . Don't carry passengers unless a special seat is provided for them Use low gear going down hill. Let the motor act v a brake. Dif ferential brakes on general pur pose tractors should be locked to gether for higway driving.

Wool cannot be expanded production sharply; therefore, the wool's market has never been more secure, Keetch explains. Humanity demands a very complex assortment ' of requirements nafrom textiles, and wool ture's most complex and perfect fiber . , . fits unequally more of these requirements than any other fiber in existance. , W4""ta fSttl , f Wool is the most absorbent fiber known, and at the same time its resilience and outer membrane gives considerable rain repellence, as the fibers lie in rough finish fabrics. The 157 million people of the United States today, on the basis of comparative buying power, represent the purchasing capacity of 226 million people on the per capita income basis of 1939.

Parrish, County Agricultural Agent. Grass should be planned in every crop rotation for Salt Lake County farms. Grass produces and maintains good soil structure, increases capacity of the soil and general insurance against drought and flood hazards. And grass furnishes top quality livestock forage, says Mr. Parrish. Rain is the principal agent in water erosion. Raindrops impact accounts for most of the movement of soil particles. Raindrops hitting bare soil act as a miniture bomb and firly explode. This causes a splashing action which seals the surface of the ground. This prevents water penetration into the soil regardless of how dry the soil is underneath. Rapid run-of- f then occurs and on steep land the soil carrying capacity of the water increases greatly with the slope. Gross breaks up the energy of the raindrops and acts as a spongy cushion. The water then runs down the leaf blades and stems to the ground where most of it goest into the soil instead of running off the surface. Grass protects the soil against flowing surface water, reduces the velocity and prevents the surface scouring which carries the' soil away. . a Light Delivery in 1953 Line of Chevrolet Trucks ... vl,'''4 side-mount- water-- holding You'll Find These Sp-ci- ols at ur Midvale City Store Hound Steaks U.S. Good and Choice J Grades high-crowne- d LAMBS FATTENING Lambs should be sorted into two or more groups according to sue. It is best to push the larger lambs faster on grain than the smaller lambs, according to Joseph F. P risj, County Agricultural Agent. Lambs should be vaccinated for "over eating" disease if self-feeing or a higher grain level is plan ed in the feeding operations. The ratio of grain or concentrates to roughage should be based oa the size of lambs. Heavy feeders, weighing 76 to 90 pounds, require a 50-5- ratio. Medium lambs 66-7pounds require 40 per cent concentrates and 60 per cent rough' ge. Light weight lambs under 65 pounds need 30 per cent conccn Irates and 70 per cent roughage.
