Clean Fuel Supply Ess
When the diesel engine for
tractors was designed, one of the
most difficult problems of design
was the proper injection of the
fuel into the combustion chamber
against high pressure.
The “heart” of the diesel en
gine is the fuel injection system.
Since this mechanism must in
ject just enough fuel for one ex
plosion, it must operate with ut
most precision.
Because of the close tolerances
built into the injection system,
it is very important that the fuel
which reaches the system is as
clean as possible

;ntial for Diesels
Use only a clean storage tank
v/ith no rust or scale on the in
side. Make one end of the tank
lower than the other. Then put a
water sediment trap on the bot
tom of the tank at the lower end.
Let the fuel settle for a few
hours before refueling the trac
tor, after the storage tank is fill
ed. Always pump directly into the
tractor tank. Never use buckets
or open containers for refueling.
Be sure that water or gasoline
doesn’t contaminate the diesel
fuel, since both can seriously
damage the injection system.
Loss of power or misfiring of
the engine indicates that fuel filt
ers may be clogging. They need
occasional servicing.

Nation’s Farmers Exceed Soil Bank’s
Limits with 20 Million Acres Offered
The U. S. Department of Agri
culture today reported that farm
ers have filed applications for
1959 contracts m the Conserva
tion Reserve of the Soil Bank
which offer acreage exceeding
the goals for the program in most
states and nationally. The final
date for application was October
24.
For the country as a whole, the
232,000 filed applications for con
tracts would call for putting more
than 20 million acres in the Re
serve under contracts .beginning
next year. The national goal for
the 1959 signup as 12.5 million
acres.
If all farmers who filed appli
cations were offered contracts by
the County Agricultural Stabiliza
tion and Conservation Commit
tees, first-year practice and an
nual payment would require more
than the s2§s million available
for payment next year on new
contracts.
The rest of the $375-raillion to
tal authorized by the Congress
will be neded to make annual pay
ments under contracts signed in
previous years
Because the authorized pro
gram for 1959 is not sufficient to
permit offering contracts to all
applicants, it will be necessarv
in most states to follow the an
nounced priority system in deter
mining which applicants are of
fered contracts.
FEEDING CAPETTES
Has Its Problems!
One of these is the proper proportioning of finishing pellets and
grain in your bulk bin.
With grain and pellets in the feeders, the birds also must balance
their own diet. This they do not always do and uneveness in birds
and inefficient gains frequently occur.
To correct some of these difficulties
Miller & Bushong have developed an
Early Bird Complete Capette Roaster
It is a completely pelleted ration for finishing capettes. No grain
feeding required.
ADVANTAGES
I—Easier to feed
2—Completely balanced ration as to vitamins, amino acids, min*
erals and carbohydrates
3—Birds get a complete ration in one
RESULTS
Better finish
WHAT ABOUT COSTS?
The price is right!

When the priority system is
used, farmers who in 1958 had all
their cropland in the Acreage Re
erve and the Conservation Re
crev together and are now ap
plying to put all the land in the
Conservation Reserve will be
ottered contracts first.
The next priority is to farmers
who offer land at less than the
maximum rate established for
their farms. The remaining ap
plications (all at the established
maximum rates) are then con
sidered in order of the rate per
acre, beginning with the lowest.
About 126,000 farmers placed
a total of 10 million acres of crop
land in the program in 1956,
1957, and 1958.
In the signup procedure for
Conservation Reserve contracts
which are to become effective
in 1959, farmers first asked
County ASC Committees to es
tablish maximum annual pay
ment rates per acre for their
farms. When the payment rate
was established each farmer was
given a notice of the rate.
He could then apply for a con
tract offering to accept the maxi
mum rate or less Today’s an
nouncemen treports only on the
contract applications actually
filed.
The next step will be for
County ASC Committees to
check the number of acres, and
Ration No. 39 Plus (Pellets)
More uniform flock
the quality and eligibility of land
offered. This process will likely
require at least six weeks.
Each farmer who is offered a
contract will have 15 days t»
sign the contract which is tho
final step in placing land, in the
Conservation Reserve,
Applications filed, acres on ap
plications, payments estimated

funds, and acreage goals by

Texas, with 19,070 applications
led all states in this field, fol

applicants, Oklahoma with 13,092,
Minn, with 13,005, North Dakota
with 12,400 and Georgia with

while Rhode Island and Arizona
Nevada has no applicants,
have sev'en each.
Pennsylvania has 4,695 appli
cations for 267,199 acres, well in
excess of the state’s goal of 174,-
000 acres $4,071,000 are avail
able for the state’s program,
while all applications would re
quire $5,407 if accepted, and
contracts signed.
