Rust Preventives On The Market New nut preventive compounds or Hi lmh to atop the roetiag of farm machinery when it is left in the open or Stored under a shed is now avail able, according to J. D. Blickle, Ex tension agricultural engineer at State College. "Every user of fans machinery or ether equipment owes it to himself, particularly under presmt machinery shortages, to protect his equipment against the damages caused by rust," BHckie mys. He points out that the liquid rust prevenatrvee can be sprayed or brush ed on ttetal parts and will prevent rusting for four to six months en machinery standing out-of-doors, and for a year or mere on machinery stored under cover. The soft grease type of rust pre ventive, when brushed on metal sur faces, will prevent their rusting for outside and for an indefinite period when stored under cover. Blickle suggests that the rust ** ventive be applied to mold-boards, colters, discs, grain drill furrow and metal hoppers, bolts and nuts when adjustments are irade, and sheet metal parts of elevators on combines, Busting is prwwnted by the new compounds because they adhere firm ly to the metal surfaces and form a elastic non-porous film through which moisture end sir cannot pene trate, the agricultural engineer says. production tffort which «®rtld* year's hog cholera serum and vin» output 52 percent above the total of two years ago. It was just as seri ous a production battle as tfcftt of our shipyards sod munitions. plants, and we wotUghs they won theirs. "Out onjthr farms, the nation's veterinarians had an equaUf hud task in imrauiuHng tens of millions et figs before cholera could strike, in many mi they *oit«d Utftf»By day and nfrht to g* the job done.

The Administration will pay, usual* Iy from 6 to 9 cento per meal, for certain specified foods purchased for and served in either of the two kinds of lunches. The menu may include a wide variety of foods, depending on local supplies of foods. The "Type A" lunch provides from a third to a half of the five kinds of food that a growing child needs daily. The "Type B" lunch has the same kinds of food but the helpings are smaller and contain Jess protein, fat, minerals, and vitamins, except for milk, which remains the same The "Type A" lunch provides: (1) A half-pint of fresh whole milk as a beverage.

Home-Made Lime Spreader Built A home-made lime spreader haa been designed by the Agricultural Engineering Department at State College which utilizes materials which can be found in almost an y junk yard, reports David 8. Weaver, head of the department It consists of a hopper with a rotating piste directly under open* iags in the bottom of the hopper. The rotating plate ia driven through the gearing, which is found in the rear axle of a discarded automobile. Old tires, too worn for any use on a car or track, may be ased on the machine. ^ The ma'iiiir, which costs on tha average, shoot half the price of s commercial spreader may be used for kaottag lime and certain fertili zer materials in fertilizing pastures, meadow strips, atijtf . in distributing lime for a wide variety of cropa. Growers wishing to build a home made spreader should write the Agricultural Engineering Depart* ment, State Collate, Raleigh, for a free copy of Plan No. 254. |T. B.
