SLURRY SPREADER
A new liquid manure
spreader, available in 2,200
gallon and 3,200 gallon
capacity models, has been
introduced by A. 0. Smith
Harvesters Products, Inc.,
headquartered in Arlington
Heights, 111.
The Slmrystore system
spreader is marketed in both
pull-type and truck-mounted
models. The pull-type offers
broadcasting and/or soil
injection. The four-chisel
tractor mounted plow-down
soil injector means
minimum odor during
spreading, even application,
and more uniformity in
volume distribution. For
long hauling distances and
broadcasting, the truck
mounted spreader may be
desirable.
The pull-type spreader
features tandem axles,
flotation tires, and walking
beam suspension. Allowing
easy conversion from
spreader to injector action,
the unit’s front mounted
pump has a minimum of
moving parts. Emergency
port can be easily and
have a
nice weekend...

opening and closing filler
hatch eliminates spillage
during hauling. Level in
dicator is located up front for
easy visibility. Baffles
prevent surging, reduce tank
stress.
The plow-down soil in
jector attachment is
mounted on a tractor three
point hitch ahead of the
slurry tank, and may be
raised or lowered depending
upon soil condition and
desired depth of penetration.
Four injector units are
mounted on the basic tool
bar.

The cooperative spirit
(Continued from Page 37)
A secretary of Dairylea
until last year, Pardoe says
the old capital program was
burdened with interests on
all of the assets. “Nothing
was ever owned,” he ad
mitted. “It was all debt
capital which revolved every
ten years and had to be paid
back with interest. Another
burden was, and continues to
be, the balancing of milk
supplies. A cooperative is
not free to just drop mem
bers when milk gets to be too
plentiful.”
“We assume the obligation
of handling the members’
milk. The private handlers
pick and choose. They of
tentimes end up with the
more desirable shippers and
they may be able to pay a
or silage. The Dyna Might,
recommended for use in 12
by 16 foot diameter silos,
was thoroughly field-tested
before it’s recent in
troduction. The high-speed
auger and direct drive
impeller are matched for
smooth, steady flow of
material down the chute.
The unloader also features a
tapered, plug-resistant
auger with double fittings at
the end wall; and a sir
bladed wall cleaner.

United States and Canada

equipment. For more in

little more because of that.
But they offer little security.
Milk marketing is a highly
competitive business with
extrememly narrow
margins,” Pardoe ex---
claimed.
Chester County dairyman
William Freese of Oxford
says the capitalization plan
sounds good to him. “I’m
sure it’s going to do the job
they say it’s supposed to,” he
commented. “I give the new
general manager a lot of
credit. Actually, the plan
itself didn’t impress me as
much as the new
management.”
Fred Denman, a New York
State dairyman, and
director of Dairylea,
believes the new financing
