3250 gallon
spreader tank
We built this whopper to cover more
acreage per trip . and take abuse year in
and year out Its powerful slmger spreads a
40' path, keeps liquid close to ground.
Discharge valve won’t clog or freeze.
Walking beam wheels mean easy pulling.
Surge brake provides extra safety Rugged
tank has internal baffles, frame is super
strong for long life Take a look It’s
your best spreader tank value If you need
a smaller one, we manufacture those, too.
Calumet
Great new name in farmstead equipment.
Lowell L Wilson, professor of animal
science, beef cattle committee
chairman. The program is designed to
be of interest to all livestock
producers.
“With so much pessimism
rampant in our society
today, our committee
decided instead to plan a
program which will be
positive and affirmative. It
is appropriate that Get
tysburg should be the site for
this convention - the place
where one of the greatest
affirmations of our time took
place.”
As a parent, try to ob
jectively appraise your
child's ability, suggests
James Van Horn, Extension
family life specialist at The
Pennsylvania State
University. Then encourage
and even insist he work up to
that capacity. Help your
child dream enough to
realize what he can or can’t
do. Then provide en
couragement, rather than
pressure to help him seek his
goals.
