(Continued from Page A 3) Acres Wheat Update: wimt futures continued to strengthen today and added from 6 to 6-1/2 cents to yesterday's gains. Professional baying and some com missionhouse short covering was featured with further suppoit tied to spillover from rallying soybeans and com. Underlying support was provided by continued harvest delays due to rain in the Delta and South east and cash market strength. Whispering of upcoming export interest by China and the USSR also helped with the USDA announcing after the close a sale of 100,000 metric tonnes to China. July closed out the day at $3.98-3/4 while the December settled at $4.05-3/4 after trading in a range from $4.00-1/2 to $4.06. Acres Cattle Update: Live cattle futures closed higher this afternoon from 10 to 45 points while feeders lost 20 to 37 points. Activity throughout the ses sion was light with buying tied to firm cash market fundamentals. Many participants took to the sidelines today in readiness for Friday's 7-Stole USDA Cattle on Feed Repost. Pressure in the feeder cattle was tied to sharp gains in com prices despite a sharply higher CME index. Support was provided by continued activity at die auc tion bams with prices improving steadily. Pre-estimates for the Cattle on Feed report pegged on feed numbers June 1 at 99.6%, May placements at 85.1% and Marketings at 102.1%. No spreader on the market can match the versatility of Scavenger; A new look In spreader design. More than 7 years ago, Hedlund/Martin introduced the Scavenger—a manure spreader based on an entirely new technology. Gone were unreliable apron chains and “rooster comb” beaters. Gone were leaky endgates. Gone were the old fashioned boxy shape. In their place— a unique patented square auger and side-discharge expeller reel. And with its welded Unibody construction, Scavenger looked like nothing before. But even though it looked unusual, Scavenger worked. Scavenger proved itself where it counts —in the fields of farmers all across America.

And like all successful advances in technology, Scavenger invited a slew of competition. Today, a wide variety of farm equipment manufacturers sell a Scavenger-like machine. Unmatched performance. While some of these look-alike units are perfectly adequate for certain manure-spreading application, none can match Scavenger’s overall versatility. Scavenger spreads all kinds of manure—liquid, semi-solid, pen pack (even frozen) —all year ’round. In even spread patterns up to SO feet. All in one machine.
