The report states, “Post Ex-

These days, a lot of huntin’ takes
place — especially in the West — on
tree farms, with the full approval
of the tree-farm owners. Whenever
possible, they let hunters use their
forests, and in some cases even pro-
vide cabins for the hunters’ use. In
return, they ask the sportsmen to
be careful not to damage any prop-
erty, and be ’specially careful with
fire and matches.

One good thing "bout tree farming
is, you can harvest your trees in any
season — and when you have the time
and labor available. Most fellers mark
the trees they plan to cut with a blaze

to. And 1 always like to know where
I'm goin’ to sell my trees beforehand,
and have a written agreement if pos-
sible, "cause that often saves mistakes
in cuttin’.
* * *
Fellers who have only a few trees
usually use a crosscut saw and an
axe. Fellers with more trees gen’-
rally use a power saw. In cutting a
tree, I always start out with a
notching cut, on the side facin’ the

FARMING PROFITS
It’s not easy to make money on the farm
today. It requires good machinery and the
best modern methods, such as proper crop
rotation, and soil-building plants and the
necessary fertilizer to enrich the soil.
At this bank we are always interested in
the farmer's financial welfare, and ready
to cooperate in aiding his progress.

(Have you tried Buick’ great new ride ?)
TZ SWEET WAY a 56 Buick rides on all sorts of roads

Capricious roads that twist and turn—unruly roads that

seem to wear company manners the moment a Buick
approaches.

ride-engineered combination of chassis, engine and
automatic drive that is obtainable in no other car.
And that’s gospel truth whether you drive a new
CENTURY, SUPER Or ROADMASTER.
SPECIAL,
No other car matches the firm, true tracking of Buick’s
own ride foundation —buttressed by brawny X-braced
frame and torque-tube drive—cushioned on coil springs
and deep-oil shock absorbers.
No other has such width of tread and length of wheel-
base within dimensions so trim and tidy that Buicks

sweep of power that wells from the big 322-cubic-inch

But why stop to count reasons — when results are what
you're after?
Wouldn't yon rather really feel Buick’s new “sense of
&rection” on straightaway, curves and corners?
Wouldn't you rather relax in supreme comfort while
tooling this powerful performer over roads you always
hated to travel?
Well, sir, we cordially invite you to drop in on us and
do just that.
Make it this week, won't you? Sample the ride that
has charms to win any old road — and get first-hand
figures on prices that make Buick owning a more pesi-
