Tractor Wheels Need
REGULAR Servicinq

The front wheels of farm tractors
work under dusty conditions and
unless they are serviced and adj
justed regularly they will need re-
pairs.
Replacement of front wheel bear
ings will cost approximately S37
per bearing, and there are four
of them in the front wheels, says
S. L. Vogel, assistant farm engi-
neer of the North Dakota agri-
cultural extension service.
Two methods of lubricating
front wheel bearings are used on
modern tractors, Vogel said One
is the hand packed method. The
wheels should be removed at least
once a year, cleaned, and bearings
repacked with wheel bearing
grease

Making Most Of Rain

Whether your farm loses two or
20 tons of topsoil per acre yearly
due to erosion, depends on how you
handle the water that falls on slo-
ping fields.
Making rain work for instead of
against you, is largely a matter of
good soil management. Agrono-
mists have found that soils high in
organic matter soak up more
water quickly and store it for grow
ing crops.

Finishing An Attic

QUESTION:: We are considering
finishing off our attic. In each end
we placed louvres for cross-ventil-
alton. These were put in to help
prevent the formation of condens-
alton on the roof sheathing. Should
these be closed up before finish
ing the walls? We intend to in
sulate the roof.
ANSWER: Instead of closing up
the louvres permanently, have
them fitted with doors which can
be opened and closed by means of
long cord, and catch for easy
opening and closing. In this way
you can have the benefit of the
ventilation in the summertime,
and can close the louvres when
ever you wish.

On the tax question, Senator
Taft was in agreement with Roy

Senator Taft said that after

Federal Reserve Board reversed

did not follow suit. The Treasury

The blast blew the rear wall
and one side wall out. Everything
inside was burned. Firemen said
Mr.. and Mrs. Trice got out the

Unaware of his critical condi-
ton, Mr.. Trice drove his stake
