NOTES FROM THE FIELD
by GEORGE RlETz, Mgr.
Form Industry Div, General Electric Co.

You've heard and read a lot about
farm mechanization but did you know
you have a smoothly-functioning team
working to help you?
Farm equipment manufacturers, work
ing with electrical companies like General
Electric, are constantly developing new
farm production machines.
The crop drier shown below is an ex-
cellent example of this team work.
Examining the machine with me is
]. H. Oliver, farm equipment engineer
of the General Electric Co. Jim spends
much of his time in the field working
closely with farmers like yourself and
equipment manufacturers. incidentally,
the crop drier you see here incorporates
more than seven important electrical
parts made by General Electric.
Check the MaksrI
In passing, I'd like to suggest that
when you're IN the market for a farm
machine, you check the name of the
electrical parts maker carefully. It's
pretty important that things like cable
and switches be properly designed if you
want to get the performance you paid
for. Also, when it comes to motor-driven
equipment, you can't do better than a

Farmers Best Hired Handl
Electric motors can be installed almost
anywhere; they are easily started sum-
mer or winter. They require practically
no attention and give the farmer more
for his work dollar than any other form
of power.
Take Ernest Taber of Cato, N. Y, for
example. He installed an automatic
potato grader on his farm and powered it
with a gle T-hp motor. Now, when his
crop is in, grading is over in no time
at all. He also put an electrically
powered fan ventilator in his storage
room to keep potatoes from spelling in
the spring and warm weather.
Mixes Cement Electrically
William Haskell of Elmer, N. J., is
another farmer who doesn't believe in
wasting his time doing hard jobs by
hand. He bought a small cement mixer
and mounted a G-E T-hp motor on it.
Now when he needs concrete for erecting
posts or cement for laying new floors,
he merely fills the mixer and fips a
switch. The motor does the reSti

Summer
Shoes

White shoes should be cleaned
off the foot and not worn until
they are thoroughly dry. If worn
damp. the leather or fabric may
stretch out of shape. Put in shoe
trees or stuff with tissue paper
before cleaning. &9a
There is no one cleaner that As
equally good for all white shoes.
The specialists advise reading the
label on the cleaner to be sure 1t
is recommended for the type Of
leather or fabric In the shoes.
: In general, white shoe soap is
best for white smooth leather be-
cause it cleans without drying
and hardening the leather. Dress
ing that contains whitening ma
terial like chalk is suited to cloth
shoes. but the old dressing should
always be brushed out before ap-
plying more. Shoes of white
suede or other mapped leather
may be powder cleaned" rather
than liquid cleaned Use one OF
the buffer bags of chalk-like ma
terial sold for the purpose.
If white shoes are grass
stained, first brush or sponge off
the old polish then brush with
q solution of sodium perborate
(sold at drugstores for cleaning
teeth) or peroxide. Then rinse
and polish, working rapidly in
order not to wet the shoes any
more than necessary.
Many. play shoes today are
made of cotton fabrics. If they
are good quality and colorfast
they can be cleaned with stiff
brush and mild soapsuds. Rub
the powder into the surface OF
the shoes, let stand for an hour
or more, then brush thoroughly.
Some shoes contain elasticized
fabric to make them fit closely.
The rubber in such fabric is
ruined by ordinary cleaning
fluids. Read the label on the
cleaner to be sure it is safe for
elasticized shoes.
