Members of the Umatilla County
Farm Loan association held their
annual business meeting at Pendle
ton. Oregon, on January 14th, and
elected L. L. Rogers, F. S. Curl, H.
C. Rotthrock, W. H. McCormmach,
and E. P. Marshall, on their board
of directors for the coming year. The
board in turn elected L. L. Rogers
as president, F. S. Curl as vice presi
dent, J. S. Johns as secretary-trea
surer, and Margaret J. 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.

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

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.

‘ 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.

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. At least so we are told by the State
Board of Public Works of one of the states which has made a very intensive
study of drivers and driving conditions, and which
has prepared the a-’- •— “---- •-------- ■ ■
