"Knee-action is here to stay? ]
We haven't considered for a mocnent
omitting it from Chevrolet
."Master deluxe models for 1936."
Thus did W. E. Holler, vice-president
and general sales maneager
of Chevrolet Motor Company,
emphatically state that the
(Company's new cars, to be introduced
November 2, would ofrfer
individual front wheel suspension
in the line.
"Our 1936 models will offer the
' same option in springing as the
-.935 models; this is, the Master
Jeluxe cars will be available with
Bther knee-action or conventional
iprings, and the Standard models
With conventional springs only,"
Mr. Holler declared.
"Chevrolet has made great
changes in its plan set-up for
.manufacturing leaf springs, and
also has purchased much new
: machinery for the making of
leaf springs. The reason is that
we needed these facilities because
'we will introduce a greatly improved
design of leaf-spring suspension
in the 1936 Standard
.models. The effect is to improve
ithe ride, by changing the layout
:and the design of the leaf spring
30 that they give more nearly
equal front and rear action.
"On the 1936 Master deluxe,
:the Chevrolet type of all-enclosed
"knee-action units will be retained
; unaltered, except for minor chan- j
. ges in assembly methods. Even i
if we could obtain, with conventional
leaf-spring suspension, a'
ride as soft and as smooth asj
mee-action provides, we would
lot drop knee-action because of'
ts many other advantages?es- j
ecially shockless steering, which
ontributes so greatly to safety
and to driving ease."
"The Chevrolet type of kneeaction
has been a success from
the start. Today, more than 1,000,000
knee-action Chevrolets are
in use, and during the current
year, more than 96 per cent of
purchasers of the Master deluxe j
models chose knee-action cars, j
gladly paying more for them |
than the price for the identical
cars with ordinary springs.
"The enthusiastic reception ac- j
- corded our 1936 models by ourj
own field forces, during their
convention in Detroit, is now be- j
ng repeated, in every region and i
pne territory, by our dealers.!
{hey all agree that Chevrolet
las done a great job in its new
cars, and they all are enthusias-1
tic over the business prospects, j
We feel that the public will be |
just as responsive to our 1936
cars when they go on public dis.play
November 2nd."
Hog-Killing Tips

'ollow in the slaughtering and
* neat curing.
Other timely talks which will
Also be heard during the week

Current Prices Of Pork In
sures Bigger Return From
Corn When Fed To Hog;
At current prices, corn fe<
hogs will return a bigger incom*
to the farmer through the sal*
of meat than if the corn wer*
sold directly.
Farmers with a good supply 01
corn can hardly afford not t(
I raise pigs this year, says W. W
Shay, swine specialist at Stat*
College.
Corn fed to hogs will yield
on an average, about $1.30 a
bushel, as compared with 75c a
; bushel when sold on the market
as corn.
Shay also states that 30-pound
pigs sold for $4 each, as is often
the case, do not return the farmer
any profit, since it costs that
I much to produce a pig of that
weight.
But as the pig gains in weight,
the cost of production for each
pound steadily diminishes until
!the hog reaches a weight of
around 200 pounds.
Not counting the corn, the
cost of producing 100 pounds of
meat on a hog is about $3.20.
When hogs are valued at $11
per 100 pounds of live meat,
there remains $7.80 to cover the
cost of the corn.
Six bushels of corn will usually
produce 100 pounds of meat,
Shay pointed out. Hence the corn
may be considered as bringing a
return of $1.30 a bushel when
converted into pork.
Or if the corn is figured at 75
cents a bushel, there is a net
profit of $6.66 on each 200-lbs.

Scrub Bulls Are
Always Expensive
Hard - Headed Dairymen
Once Observed That
"You Pay For A Good
Bull Whether You Own
One Or Not"
A hard-headed business dairyman
once said, "You pay for a
good bull whether you have one
or not."
"If you have a good one, the
profits from the herd enable you
to pay for him.
"If you keep a scrub, the lowered
efficiency of the herd will
cost you more than a good bull."
So if dairymen are going to
pay, one way or another, for a
good bull, there is no reason why
they should not have one, said
John Arey, extension dairy specialist
at State College.
The herd sire represents 50 per
cent of the future of the herd,
Arey pointed out. A few poor

' cows may do some damage to'
I the herd, but a scrub sire will ,
ruin the best of herds in a few
years.
The term "good bull" is used j
. j to mean a purebfed bull of good [
! type with a continuous produc- \
I tion record through his ancestry,
Arey explained. Such a bull will'
I transmit both his type and his j
" high production strain to his off-!
springs.
The transmitting capacity of a [
.j good bull has been proven be- j
i yond a doubt, Arey stated. Even)
5 when bred to poor cows, the offsprings
will have comparatively
i high milk production ability.
; A dairyman with a herd of
j comparatively poor cows can, in
^ j two generations, breed up a fairly
high producing herd by always
f breeding to good bulls, Arey
} said. |
If the herd is small and the
j dairyman feels he cannot afford
' a good bull, Avery continued, the
least he can do is have his cows
| bred to good bulls from near-by
L herds.
, Farm Questions
i
Question?What minerals do j
brood sows need during the gestation
period?
Answer?A satisfactory mineral
mixture can be made by
thoroughly mixing 10 pounds of
acid phosphate, 10 pounds ofj
hardwood ashes or ground lime-1
stone, and 2 pounds of common J
salt. The animals should have ac-1
cess to this mixture at all times.
Proper care and feed for the ani-|
mals during this period is also!
necessary for best results and I
this information is given in Ex-1
tension Circular 151., copies of,
which may be had free upon |
application to the Agricultural!
Editor at State College.
Question:?How long does it i
take to cure sweet potatoes and I
what should be the average temperature
of the house?
Answer?It usually takes about
two weeks for proper curing with
the temperature maintained at 80
,to 85 degrees. Plenty of ventilation,
however, must be given
i during the curing in order to
j drive off all moisture. Watch the
potatoes carefully and when the
buds show a tendency to sprout
iand the skin feels "velvety" the
curing is completed. After curing,
(allow the temperature to drop to
about 50 degrees F. and keep it
as close to that mark as possible
| while the potatoes are kept in
storage.
Question ? What size lights
must I put in my poultry house
for artificial lighting?
Answer?This depends upon the
"w nf fho hnnao hut tnm fnrtv.

watt bulbs for each 400 square ]
feet of floor space gives the most
satisfactory results. The bulbs
should be placed in the center of
the house ten feet apart and six

lighting the entire house, a reflector

' and four inches deep should be
used with each light bulb,
