hogs are

sold eaieh month. Last year Mr. j Cook sold about 1500 hogs on the marital weighing about 210 pounds. All of the hog equipment is in use continuously on this type of program and the j labor is evenly distributed. It is | felt that every farmer who raises hogs can pick up some ideas on this hog program that will help him at home. Mr. Cook also has a new poultry house, 160 ft. by 28 ft. which houses 1200 caged layers. It is certainly worth the time of anyone interested in chickens to see this method of handling chickens. The cropping program on this farm consists of a rather intensive rotation for this type of soil. The major rotation on 130 acres is corn-dats with clover ntercrop. Two other rotatiors are followed for the hog santiation program. From the Cook farm the tour will go to the WTTV tower where there is an alfalfa and a Lirdsfoot Trefoil demonstration. Alfalfa varieties to be viewed are African, Atlantic, Vernal, Nomad, Narraganset, Kansas

Common, Buffalo and Ranger. These varieties have different rates of lime applied and are crossed with different grasses. Birdsfoot Trefail varieties tested are Empire, Otalian, Cascade Big Trefoil and Mansfield. Bill Andersons noon farm program will be telecast from the Lower with interviews and dis cussions of the things seen or the tour. Lunch will also be served at this stop on the tour. During the afternoon the tourists will visit Eldon Hirts farm ir Morgan County. This farm is primarily a beef feeding and hog feeding operation. It has many soil conservation features which will be of interest to the farmers. The 270 acre farm is in a very high state of fertility and the crop rotation is intensive. Mr. Hirt feeds out some 500 head of cattle and 400 to 500 head of hogs each year.

THE WILD FRONTIER HAS A NEW KING!

Groat Features back up Chevrolet Performance: Anti-Dive Braking—Ball-Race Steering—Outrigger Rear Springs—Body by Fisher 12-\olt Electrical Sy su m—Nine Engine-Drive Choices in all models—and, finally, the great scientific, technical and engineering resources of General Motors The new Chevrolet has proved itself all K-I-X-G in today’s toughest driving competition! Starting at Daytona Beach last winter, the new Chevrolet swept aside all competition in its class in acceleration tests. , It lambasted every car in its field and all but one of the high-priced cars down there on the fast, furious frontier of NASCAR ^-sponsored trials. And since then what’s happened: The latest figures on hand show • that so far Chevrolet has piled up a total of 196 points in NASCAR Short Track Standings—which puts Chevrolet in FIRST PLACE with a commanding lead of 99 points over its nearest rival! And that rival is a medium-priced car! • What makes Chevrolet such a winner on the tracks? Faster accelera- ‘ tion, for one. Superior handling qualities, too—sure, steady cornering; .quick, accurate steering; and smooth, positive braking. And these very same things clearly mean more safety and pleasure for you on the modern frontiers of our nation—our highways! ' When would you like to try out this new King?
