There's something
There is a lot of satisfaction in having equipment
that looks good. But, more important, paint is
the best protection against rust and corrosion. We
use live steam and a special solvent to remove
rust, grease and old paint. Then we refinish
with special farm equipment paint that perfectly
matches the original Allis-Chalmers color.
The low cost will surprise you. Ask us to quota
on your tractor, All-Crop harvester, and other
major machines.

Reports from over tne state in

both farm and forest tana.
Ram and foliage reduced the
amount of hunting and the Kin

but, generally, the burners weie
well satisfied with the "opener
and the small game supply. How
ever, game icported as "sit

Hunting pressure declined in
some farm areas but increased
in some forest areas, indicating
the wild turkey is luring many
first-day shooters into woodlands
in pursuit of this magmficient
bird. The fact small game was
seen almost everywhere prior to
