for cultivating -
mechanical and chemical
The “2020” is a compact, maneuverable utility tractor
second to none. But it’s definitely not limited to
Utility work. With up to 24 inches of underneath clear
ance, it’ll handle lay-by cultivation. With its variabie
epeed engine and 8-speed transmission, you can pin
point the exact speed you need for precision 2- and 4-
fow cultivating, and for accurate spraying. Clean de
sign and narrow hood give you good row visibility.
Power Steering makes it easy to plow weeds, not

• Pigeon
(Continued from Page 21)
the pigeons across the country,
heading ornithologists agree
that man brought about their
destruction through this prac
tice. and not through some freak
of nature.
It is a hideous story and man
never made another total slaugh
ter like this. Had but a few been
spared they would be a pleasure
to behold today.
Martha, the last passenger
pigeon, died in the Cincinnati
Zoo in 1914 and is now on ex
hibition at the Smithsonian Mu
seum. Fortunately there is also
a pair on display at North Mu
seum and Dr. Price can tell
much more about them.
Looking up through the scraps
ol woodland remaining in War
wick Township, we wonder how
it was when the skies were full
and booming.

HOW CAN / HELP MY SOWS FARROW BIG UTTERS?
Feed Purina Sow Chow, of Course^
Yes, Purina Sow Chow has been built through many years of careful nutritional studies
on over 5,000 litters of pigs at Purina's Research Farm.
Purina Sow Chow has everything your sow needs to help her develop, farrowand nurse
big litters of husky pigs,and maintain her own body weight at the same time.
Authorities estimate that 20% to 33% of all pig embryos conceived are resorbed by
the sow early in the gestation period, if she is fed a poorly balanced ration.
So hogmen who neglect the ration they give their sows, lose lots of pigs they never
even seel
That’s why it pays to feed a proved ration like Purina Sow Chow.
Stop in and see us today about either Purina Sow Chow Complete or Purina Sow Chow
Concentrate to mix with your grain.
