GETS LIGHTNING PICTURES
Surrealist views of Heppner are
shown in two pictures of a recent
lightning storm snapped in front of
the Safeway store by John Anglin,
lical manager. The surrealism effect
is given by the lightning flashes,
car lights, etc., caught on the film in
double exposure, giving grotesque
forms to the buildings, light poles
and other objects shown in shadows.
For example, a gasoline pump caught
in the foreground has the appear
ance of a towering skyscraper, or a
series of towering skyscrapers of
like form. The forked-tongue light
ning in one view appears to have
descended to the ground on the town
side of a hill, leaving the hill lighted
in the background.

BASUL. BASUL is tifine powder
which adheres especially well
to the grain. It is a vast improve
ment over copper carbonate,
because it costs less per pound,
provides equal or better con
trol, and is easily applied with
standard seed treating . equip
ment. BASUL contains 52
metallic copper the same as
high grade copper carbonates
so use it at only 2 ounces per
bushel of seed.
In actual tests by many ex
periment stations throughout
the country, BASUL has given
equal or better results than cop
per carbonate and other prod
ucts designed for bunt and
smut control!
Seed treated with BASUL can
be stored for months without
injury; will not "set" in the drill.
So BASUL is proving gen
uinely good news for wheat
growers better smut control at
lower cost with greater convenience!
