The model 130 06 has hydrostatic power steering; hydraulic brakes; 16 forward and seven reverse gears; syn chromesh transmission and 1000 rpm independent pto; differential lock; heavy-duty swinging draw bar; and exhaust turbocharger. Four-wheel drive and Double Diamond Safety Cab, with air conditioner, are available as optional equipment. The new tractor is powered by an air-cooled, six-cylinder Deutz engine. The turbine rotor in the exhaust turbo-charger is driven by the exhaust gases from the engine. The power used is kinetic energy from the exhaust gases. This means that no power is taken from the engine. The tractor is equipped with a completely separate hand brake system to provide independent parking. It also has a safety starting switch which requires the gear shift lever to be in neutral before the engine can be started. V A.. Antibiotic Controls Calf and Pig Scours A new antibiotic milk replacer additive for control of scours (bacterial enteritis) in calves and pigs has been introduced by Tuco, Division of The Upjohn Company. Neomix Milk Replacer Ad ditive is highly soluble in water, milk or milk replacers. Its active ingredient, neomycin sulfate, is reportedly highly effective against most forms of scour causing bacteria in calves and pigs. Tuco animal health resear chers report that Neomix is an excellent treatment for scours problems, as it concentrates itself and remains stable in the animal’s intestine where enteritis problems originate. Because of its effectiveness, daily dosage is relatively low and favorable results can usually be seen within 24 hours. One 8-oz. packet added to milk replacer or water will treat 25 100-lb. calves or 50 50-lb. pigs. Neomix Milk Replacer Ad ditive is available in 8-oz. and 5- Ib. packages from all farmstores where Tuco products are sold. ■r V
