Harvestore announces new grain conveyor
ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, H - A
new cleated belt conveyor in
troduced by A.O. Smith Har
vestore Products, Inc. moves grain
up inclines to 90 degrees at speeds
of 620 ft. per min. The product
features the quiet, smooth
operation and relatively low
horsepower requirements typical
of belt conveyors.
The new conveyor, labeled the
model 330 grain conveyor, was
designed to replace tube augers
and tilting discharge augers. It is
versatile enough to do nearly any
grain conveying job in the
feedroom, harvestore system
marketing specialists say.
The product features a 6-inch
wide cleated belt made of sturdy
moisture and acid resistant
material. This material and the
belt’s design contribute to reduced
operational noise, low vibration,
minimum maintenance and longer
life. Special belt construction also
promotes less friction and stretch
with reduced power requirements.
The belt’s 2-inch high cleats are
spaced at 8-inch intervals,
acieving a conveying capacity of
400 to 600 lbs. per min.
Constructed of 18 ga. steel which
is galvanized for corrosion
resistance, conveyor sections are
available in either 3 or 5 foot
lengths. The design easily ac
commodates unsupported spans of
up to 25 ft. The conveyor is
available in lengths of up to 40 ft. to
specifically satisfy a variety of
grain moving and feeding
requirements.

how to handle
vealers
SOUTH ST. PAUL, Mn -
“Handling and Transporting Veal
Calves” is the title of a new
pamphlet published by the
Livestock Conservation Institute.
The information in the brochure

meeting of LCI by Terry Seubert,
president of Seubert Calif Ranches
in Dorchester, WI and distributor
for American Feeds & Livestock
Co., Inc. Seubert is also a member
of the Wisconsin Veal Growers
Association.
The brochure gives suggestions
for the care of the cow before
freshening, handling the newborn
calf, transporting bob calves and
marketing bob calves through
auction markets. It also gives
guidelines for shipping “Special-
Fed Veal Calves.”
The proper handling of young
calves requires special knowledge.

\ would be useful to veal calf raisers,
dairyproducers who sell newborn
calves, and livestock dealers
handling young calves.
