One of the most important focal points for engine trou ble is the cooling system. .The cooling system is one of the simplest parts of a mod ern engine and one of the easiest to maintain A simple semi-annual pro cedure which involves com pletely draining and flush ing the cooling system, and adding fresh coolant, i e. anti freeze in the fall and rust inhibitor and water in the spring, is just about all that is necessary. While the cooling system is being drained, check all water hose clamps, tension of the fan belt, and radiator pressure cap.

Faulty brakes are among our greatest killers Have yours checked at the first hint of trouble. You can test the pressure while at a dead stop If your pedal goes to with in two inches of the -floorboa rd, you’re taking unneces sary chances when you drive.

If more than two tons of lime per acre is required, ap ply half of the needed am ount the year tested, and half the following year. Apply phosphate and pot ash according to needs as indicated by soil tests Each year at least 300 lbs. of Q.-20- 20 or equivalent- per- acre should be applied. Bluegrass will respond tre mendously to application of nitrogen For maximum pro duction, Smith says these pastures‘need an application of 80 to 100 lbs. of actual nitrogen per acre. Apply the nitrogen early in the spring before the grass begins to grow. Careful management of nitrogen treated bluegrass is necessary. As growth will start pasturing about two weeks earlier than normal. REAL INSURANCE Protect your Seeds Against Wireworms and Disease with... FOR CORN SEED .0 Contains Lindane and ORTHOC IDE ...
