Pigg as Assis tant secretary-treasurer, and all of the directors will make up the loan committee for 1936. Aided by higher crop and live stock prices and a temporary reduc tion of interest on outstanding loans, members made progress during 1935 toward clearing up their delinquen cies, paying off back taxes and get ting their loans in current good standing. Secretary Johns reports. "The temporary interest reduction granted by the Federal Land bank of Spokane in May 1933 and contin uing until July 1938 has helped our members effect a substantial saving on their mortgage loans. In fact, this saving is equivalent to almost a 100 per cent dividend on the amount our members have invested in association stock, and the amount < our association has invested in the capital stock of the bank.

USED CARS Hermiston Chevrolet Garage Clean Incubator Before It Is Placed in Storage At the close of the hatching season, when we are in the rush work of car ing for brooder chicks, feeding the growing flock, with possibly garden work or perhaps bees to care for. we are apt to overlook the necessity of cleaning and properly caring for the incubator before storing it away. A little carelessness at this time may mean delay and expense at the be ginning of next hatching season, says a poultryman In the Indiana Farmer's Guide. As soon as the last hatching is over It is time to prepare the Incubator for storing. Drain the pipes, if the in cubator is a hot water machine; and be sure that all the water drains out. Clean the lamp flues, and boil the burner in soda water. Brusii out the egg trays and the nursery trays, clean ing them thoroughly of down and dirt Wire screen may be washed In luke- warm soapsuds. After the machine has been thoroughly cleaned Inside and outside, spray all the interior parts with some good disinfectant. then store tn a dry, sale place until needed again, when it will be ready for duty without delay or unnecessary expense. Using Feed Troughs Small feed troughs are more desir able than the large hopper-type of feeders. With the small trough-type of feeders fresh feed Is put out sev eral times a week, which the birds will eat better than stale feed in the large type of feeder. Plenty of feeding and watering space Is conducive to good production. A trough 4 feet long at which the birds can feed from both sides will feed 30 hens. At least three feeders 4 feet long should be allowed for each 100 birds. One-half inch of drinking space is allowed per hen. Grain can best be fed in a trough when trouble Is experienced In keep ing the litter clean. Both Leghorns and dual purpose breeds are trough fed thin grains at the University of Arkansas College of Agriculture at Fayette. The grain Is fed twice a day regulating the amount of grain given. The system of feeding grain Is more satisfactory than feeding grain in dirty litter.—Hoard's Dairyman.

W e D rivers ‘ Series of Brief Discussions on Driving, Dedi cated to the Safety, Comfort and Pleasure of the Motoring Public. Prepared by General Motors JUST AS TRUE as can be that when people get expert at anything they're I for T’s apt when to begin Setting careless about it, and that’s what we have to look out driving our cars. For instance, we recently heard a group of engineers discussing night driving, and one thing they kept talking about was “over-driving our headlights.” Now that term seems to be a common one with them, but it’s new to most of US. What they mean is that the distance we can see clearly by headlights is, of course, limited, and that we are apt to let our car speeds get beyond the point where we could easily step within that limited dis tance. It’s true that we naturally tend to go a little slower at night. But if we aren’t careful we gradually get going faster than we realize, and that may get us into trouble. You see, momentum, the same force that tries to keep us from making turns safely; that cuts all kinds of capers on slippery roads .. . never sleeps! He works on the same old principles night and day. Darkness doesn’t hinder him, but it hinders us. Most modern headlights are pretty wonderful lights, but after all they don’t give us the distance or clarity of vision that daylight docs. So, on considerably shorter notice than in the daytime a vehicle or pedestrian can come out of the darkness. Almost before we know it we may have to slow down or stop for someone or something on the road . . . perhaps one of those big lumbering trucks that you barely see till you’re right up on them; or a car whose tail-light has gone out ... an unexpected curve, or what not And that's where we meet up with momentum again. You see, stopping isn’t the one simple action we always thought it was. The truth is, we are told, that there are really three things we have to do to stop. First we have to think of stopping. Next we have to move one foot over on to the brake pedal. And then we have to push down on the brake pedal. Now we might not believe it, but they tell us those first two steps take time. Less than a second, perhaps, but even in that instant momentum is carrying us on. In fact, at only 20 miles an hour the average driver goes 22 feet before he can even start to use the brakes. 85 $8885588888888 Then after he does get the brakes to working, it takes him another 18 feet tostop completely e ven with the best brakes in the world and with good tres under favorable road conditions.
