Long Discusses New Grain Drill Sweet Valley Dealer Likes Oliver's No. 64 A completely new grain drill to fit modern-day farming practices has been designed by the Oliver Corporation, according to Charles H. Long, Farm Equipment Dealer, at Sweet Valley. This all-new drill, the Oliver Superior No. 64, holds almost twice jous models—a bushel of grain and 80 pounds of fertilizer per lineal foot of hopper length. In the plain grain drill, a version of the com- bination fertilizer and grain type, hopper capdcity is almost two bushels of grain per foot: In addition, the hopper is excep- tionally low to make loading easier —only 3% feet in height at the filling point. Hopper height remains the same whether the farmer choos- es the 20-inch, or the 15-inch wheels, both designed to accommo- date low-cost, used tires. A great money-saver and time- saver, Mr. Long points out, are the lifetime-seal disc bearings that nev- er require lubrication. This not only eliminates daily greasing, but saves Another unit that matches mod- ern practices is the grass seeding attachment. Grass seed can be sown in bands, a method many authori- ties recommend to insure better hopper is only 20 inches off the ground, and located at the rear where shallow placement of seed is assured. ; Three famous Oliver Superior mechanisms are included in this new drill: an oil-bath variable speed transmission that provides 144 different grain seeding rates, the double-run force feed that handles almost any kind of seed of any size without waste or dam- age, and efficient star-finger fertil- izer feeders that will distribute at 30 different rates. The frame and hitch on the drill are also entirely new and made extra strong. To make hitching eas- ier the drawbar can be provided with a self-locking hitch stand. "Oliver Superior No. 64 drills are built in several sizes and run widths, and a large assortment of special equipment is offered. Drabick Writing Thesis On Rural Sociology Lawrence Drabick, former instruc- tor of Vocational Agriculture at Lehman-Jackson-Ross, was -written up in a recent issue of the Lebanon Daily News for his services as Rural Sociology visitor connected with Pennsylvania State University, where Larry functions as graduate assistant. k Janice Ruggles of Lehman, together with their two little boys Mike and Mahlon, live on a farm near Pot- ters Mills, too far from the Uni- versity for easy daily commuting, but delightful in other ways. Larry has now accumulated all his ma- terial and is busy writing the thesis necessary for attainment of a MS degree, expected in June after com- pletion of 33 credits. Janice, says Larry, is signed up for some college courses, now that both little boys are in school. Form- er friends from Lehman, among them Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Dawe, have visited the Drabicks on the farm where, to quote Larry, ‘we are trying to induce chickens to lay more eggs than they feel they should.” Nesbitt Auxiliary To Hear Bbout Summer Workshop Shavertown Nesbitt Auxiliary members will hear a report on the summer workshop conducted at Pennsylvania State University at its November business meeting, sched- uled ‘for Friday at 2 pm. in the Library Annex.

As she was standing near the counter one of the boys gave the child a lollipop, which we have here for all the kid- dies.
