MOLINE, HI. John Deere
has introduced its new, advanced
90 Series com head, which the
company said provides smoother
feeding, faster harvesting speeds,
less potential for ear loss, and
easier maintenance than its 40
Series com head.
The advanced design of the new
90 Series com head features inno
vative polyethylene Perma-
Glide™ points, deck covers, and
fenders; narrow transport and stor
age capability; and optional
3-piece, stalk-cutting knife rolls.
New stalk-roll choices, new trash
knives, and a large-diameter cross
auger contribute to the increased
performance of the new com head.
The new series retains some 40

BALTIMORE, Md. David
L. Call, dean of the New York
State College of Agriculture and
Life Sciences at Cornell Universi
ty, has been selected by the
National Association of County
Agricultural Agents to receive the
organization's 1993 Service to
American and World Agriculture
award.
Call will receive his award
plaque at Thursday morning’s
general session of the 78th annual
NACAA meeting, scheduled Aug.
22-26 at the Balfmore Conven
tion Center.
Reared on a large, diversified
vegetable and cash grain farm just
outside Batavia, N.Y., Call was
the youngest of six children. His
father and all five siblings are Cor
nell graduates. Two of his brothers
still operate the family farm,
My-T Acres, which now has
added fruit production to its diver
sified operation.
David Call has spent most of
the last 40 years at Cornell, where
he earned bachelor’s, master’s,
and his doctorate degrees the
latter two in agricultural
economics.
His Cornell service was inter
rupted by two years of service in
the U.S.' Army, a two-year stint in
the Department of Agricultural
Economics at Michigan §talc Uni
versity, and a year as a visiting

Deere Introduces Corn Head
Series designs, such as gearcase
driven row units and drive chains
running in an oil bath. A new,
wider seal on the inspection door
of the drive-chain oil pan provides
increased leak protection.
The smooth, slick surface of the
Perma-Glide points, deck covers,

and material flow in virtually all
conditions. Depending on the

Nutrition at Cornell in 1962 and
dean of Cornell’s College of Agri

Prior to the latter appointment, he
served five years as director of the
New York State Cooperative

During his academic career at
Cornell, Call taught courses in
food economics. His research
activities included analysis of
government food and nutrition
programs, factors causing changes
in nutrition and food consump
tion, and consumer acceptance of
food substitutes.
In recent years. Call served on
several panels appointed by New

Cuomo. These include the Gover

LEE’S SUMMIT, Mo. The
Pfizer Animal Health Student
Representative Program is enter
ing its third year this fall with a
program that will involve 31
veterinary students from the Unit
ed States and Canada.
In addition to the schools in the
U.S., four Canadian veterinary
schools will participate. This
move is in line with the com
pany’s new direction, which led to
the formation of a new North
American Animal Health Division
that markets products in the U.S.
and Canada.

pins and placing the point’s cast
iron shoe in the support stirrup.
This secures the row point and
deck covpr in an upright position
and provides access to the row
unit without raising the head with
the combine.
The points and deck covers can
be locked in the upright position
by installing a pin through the
shoe ring and support stirrup of
each row unit. This provides a
transport width of less than eight
feet when moving the com head
on a transport trailer. The upright
position also minimizes storage
space*requirements for the 90 Ser
ies com head.
The Perma-Glide deck covers
weigh about one-third as much as
metal shields, which makes re
moval and installation easier, if
necessary.
The new com head offers a
choice of straight-fluted stalk rolls
or optional knife rolls. For faster
stalk pull-through, the straight
fluted rolls feature 55 percent
more crop engagement area be
tween the rolls than the tapered
rolls on the 40 Series. This effi
cient, aggressive, stalk-stripping
action increases feeding capacity
in down crops and reduces the po
tential for plugging in weedy con
ditions. It also reduces trash intake

Straight-fluted rolls are recom
mended if requirements call for
leaving stalks intact for maximum
residue at planting time.
Optional, knife stalk rolls fea
ture six full-length, beveled blades
that contact the crop 148 times per
second. The full-length blades
permit maximum chopping and
cutting action from front to back.
The blade design produces a more
aggressive feeding performance
than the straight-fluted rolls and
minimizes the potential for plug
ging in heavy weed or vine condi
tions. The knife roll’s power re
quirement is the same as for the ta
pered stalk roll on the 40 Series.'
The knife rolls use an innova
tive 3-piece design that simplifies
service and reduces replacement
costs. Each roll consists of a one
piece cast body with two attaching
halves, which permits replacing
worn blades without removing the
entire stalk roll. Unlike most other
knife rolls, the blades do not re

The 90 Series com head is
available in eight models ranging
in size from 4 to 12 rows and 30 to
38-inch row spacings.
