Department of Agriculture
(USDA) is adopted. The proposed
amendments also require
thorough removal of lye, soda
solutions, and other chemicals
used to clean the interiors of such
vehicles.
Although current inspection
policy includes routine checks of
all meat and poultry carriers, the
Farm Management Course Available
The farmer has four basic
resources available to him;
namely land, labor, capital, and
management.
Most agriculturalists would
agree today that of these four
resources management, as
represented by the managerial
ability of the owner-operator, is
perhaps the most critical.
With the trend toward fewer
and larger farms continuing the
operator without training or
native ability ) re-enforced by
experience in farm management
is definitely handicapped. He is
faced with numerous questions
such as; Should I expand my
present operation or consider
selling out?; Would I be better off
financially to increase the ef
ficiency of my crop and livestock
enterprises?; If I were to con
sider expansion, will the
availability of labor become a
limiting factor?; The adjoining

Fix-It Tip
Gutters and downspouts can
always stand a touch-up.
Cleaning them is the first
step. Take along a Wire brush
to get rid of debris when you
climb the ladder to begin the
inspection.
Aside from leaves, you will
find gutters cluttered with
soot and grit washed down
from the roof. With the debris
out of the way you will be
able to see the metal under
neath.
A rust preventive paint may
be used as a primer over a
thin film of rust so long as the
metal is sound. Get rid of all
large flakes of rust and all
dirt before putting on the
primer. Put on the finishing
' coat after the primer has
dried.
