How fast do the swapping
rolls ON your corn picker run? Ac-
cording to S. H. Huber, extension
agricultural engineer, Ohio State
University, the average swapping
rolls turn fast enough to take a
IL foot stick through them in
about | second. This means that
the corn picker operator who uses
a stick to unclog his picker is
flirting with disaster. So, never
use a stick, corn stalk or ear
TO punch around clogged snap
ping rolls. Always stop the tractor
and shut off the power take-off
before unclogging the machine.

TALES

Well, it seems TO be that time
Of year again when kids think
an old, old custom gives them
license TO commit all kinds of
vandalism for period Of several
weeks.
. Noticed gang of perhaps a
dozen younger teen-agers-girls
at that--busily soaping the win
dows of every store and automo-
bile in the business district, last
night Yet Halloween itself is
Stfll nearly three weeks away.
Sure, | was young once. There's
hardly an adult now alive who
didn't ''go Hallowe' 'enmg" as a
kid, and the ones who do the
most grabbing as adults were
probably the meanest as kids.
And even the atomic age we now
live in hasn't come UP with any
Halloween ''pranks" that weren't
in vogue back in the good old
days"
But there is one difference be-
tween then and now We used
10 limit our activities to Hallewe'
en- itself, and this business of
making pests of ourselves for
weeks in advance just didn't go.
And the kid who used paraffin
instead of soap on windows was
frowned upon, even by the other
kids. We just didn't do it be-
cause we knew how much work
il was TO remove, how much dam
age it could do IN scratching win
dows, arS we all tried to respect
other people.
Fun's fun, and C'sSt certainly
want the kids today to -. aair
fun share Of it, but tneT, are
times when there is to- lch of

Hallowe'ening is among them.
