Many modern machines are more
complex than the machines they
replace Be sure the machine can
be operated efficiently An inexperl-
enced operator can soon offset any
savings by improper machine adj
justments and poor operation.
The right size and type Of ma
chine for the intended job is more
economical to own and operate than

small. However. # the farmer ex-
poets to expand. buying a machine
large enough to handle future loads
may be more profitable than buy

Some machines need companion
equipment. 1t would be unWlse to
buy a forage harvester if present
tractors don't have the necessary
power for satisfactory operation.
Also, tractor mounted equipment
is often designed for a specific max
and model tractor and cannot be
used with other tractors. Hence,
trading tractor for a larger or
more convenient model may IN
volve trading all the equipment that
fits the present tractor even though

Proceed With Caution
When Buying Machinery

Mechanical farming is here to
stay-but there can be too much Of
good thing.
Agricultural economists at VPI
say evermechanization has become
a serious problem for many farm
ers Machinery and equipment are
occasionally bought for small acre
ages for convenience. with little
thought given to whether or not
it will be profitable.
The economists say the decision
to buy a specified piece of farm
machinery should depend on the
use to be made Of the machine
How much it is used Will determine
whether it Will be an asset or a
liability Custom hiring may be
much more economical than out
right ownership for many farmers.
1t sometimes may be more pro
fitable for farmer to invest in
expanding the farm operation ra-
Their than in further mechanization
For example, 1000 invested in
additional land, fertilizer, or live
stock may give higher return
than $1,000 invested in a new piece
of nahinery
The more a machine is used, the
less it viii cost per hour to use
A machine that is easily adapted
to many uses is usually a wiser
investment than a machine that

Cattle on Feed
In the next few months watch for

ing early in the recommended
period will usually result in stronger
plants that will better withstand
the winter. However, wheat should
not be seeded until after the first
killing frost because of danger from
the HeSsian fly.
Seed one Of the recommended va
Tieties of wheat at the rate Of ono
to one and one-half bushels per
