meeting with various officers, in
their offices in the Adams Hotel,
of the Arizona Cattle Growers
Assocation, Arizona Cattle Feed
ers Association and the Arizona
Cattle Credit . Association This
vast State has large cattle pro
ductions on the ranges even in,
dry periods, although in places
it takes 80 acres of very scat
tered grass and desert plants
to feed one animal through a
year. ”
We attended the big Cornelius
Sales Barn sale at. Phoenix,
where over 6,000 cattle per week,
many of them from Texas, New
Mexico and other states, are
sold by auction. Quality was
generally low- by our standards
and included a good deal of(
Brahma blood.
Feed 34,000 Cattle
The Tovrea Feed Lot also in
Pheonix where year round feed
ing is carried on, with as many
as 34,000 cattle on feed at one
time was of special interest.
Cattle owned by the company
are fed and large additional'
numbers also are fed for ranch
ers and farmers on a custom
basis. The feed lot was surround
ed by immense stacks, each con
taining over 500'tons of hay and
straw purchased from farmers
in the irrigated area.
Some contacts were made
through County Agents and Com
mercial Representatives with the
big citrus fruit ‘. and vegetable
producing- operations of the West
Coast, tlipe grapefruit and dates
were eaten from the trees, though
it was off-season for most orange
varieties which were just sizing
nicely. Vegetables on the Pacific
Coast are a bit off-season in the
hot. summer weather with em
phasis being on melons.
Incidentally, at Pheonix morn
ing temperatures were seldom
beloW 80 degrees, generally go
ing above the hundred by mid
day. Practically all homes and
places of business have some
form, of air-conditioning.t
Conservationists in this area
have heard much of the wonders
of the Hoover Dam better known
perhaps to most of us by its or
iginal name Boulder Dam, locat
ed on the Arizona-Nevada line at
Boulder City. To us this was most
impressive, not alone because of
its immensity as an engineering
feat, but also because of the very
rugged canyon in which it is sit
uated. The dam itself is 726.4
feet - high, 1244 feet long at its
crest, 45 feet thick at the top
and 660 feet thick at the bottom.
Lake Mead behind the,clam, when
full is 115 miles long with a max
imum depth of 589 feet. The large
turbines, for hydro development,
have a potential of almost 2 mil
lion horse power,. The project
cost over 165 million and will
pay for itself over a period of
years. Our trip through and
around the dam Was a highlight.

on Friday almost assures him of
winning the honor for the fifth
time. ‘
Entering every class but "one
at the fair, Leslie won 19'firsts.
Mosf of them came in the grain,
vegetable, poultry and livestock
competitions but he also won in
fruit, flowers, crafts and sports.
He’s the son of Mr. and Mrs. Bert
Riley.
Students from six schools in
the Hensall area placed over
800 entries in this year’s competi
tion. The flower’ glass was the
most keenly contested «with as
many as 30 entries in a section.
Grain and corn sections were
also full.
Evening program of the fair
opened with a parade of school
children and their decorated ve
hicles, led by the Bannochburn

Adjust Them Correctly
During the next seven or eight
weeks farmers will be harvesting
one of the largest acreages of
field corn ever planted in this
area. Many of these growers
have perhaps never grown or
harvested grain corn before.
Some will hire custom opera
tors and many others will harv
est their own. Most implement
companies sell very excellent
pickers, both mounted and drawn
types. Each has its own different
merits. Some' growers prefer this
one—others that one. No matter
which make or type is used to
harvest your corn crop correct
adjustment and proper use can
make it a more profitable oper
ation.
It takes a lot of common sense,
as well as careful perusal of the
manufacturer’s operator manual
to get the best job. There are,
however, some general recom
mendations that apply to practi
cally all makes of pickers.
Propei' clearance between these
ping rolls is very important.
Propre clearance between these
two rolls is probably the most
important of all adjustments.
Most shelling losses are caused
by the snapping rolls. It sce'ms
impossible to eliminate all these
losses, but they can be curtailed
considerably by keeping the rolls
properly spaced.
Field Conditions Change
Field conditions vary from ear
ly morning until late afternoon,
and from day to day, making it
important to change the snap-
pihg-roll adjustment from time
to time. Oh some of the older
pickers, changing the roll ad
justment takes a little time.. Most
newer machines can be adjusted
by merely shifting a lever.
Therefore, there is no excuse for
excessive snapping-roll losses.
You Can actually throw money,
away if you run your cornpickcr
snapping rolls farther apart than
conditions of the crop warrants.
Study the conditions, do a little
experimenting, then set the rolls
so that they will do a good job/
How close the snapping rolls
should be is’something the opera
tor must determine after he gets
tions will be the determining fac
tor.
Snapping rolls should be run
close together but not touching
when corn is damp or wet and
hard to snap. Rolls should be run
farther apart when corn is dry
or frozen. Excessive shelling re
sults when rolls are set too far
apart, hbwever.
To stress the importance of
using proper roll spacing here
is a test made in Illinois during
midseason harvesting of corn
that averaged between 75 and 95
bushels per acre. -
Narrower Setting Saves Corn
When snapping rolls were set
one-eighth inch apart corn losses
were 5 percent of the total crop.
When the spacing was increased
to five-sixteenths, losses totalled
7’ percent.
Opening the rolls for one-half
inch clearance jumped losses to
10 percent. And when- the clear
ance was increased to eleven-six
teenths loSshs jumped to more
than 12 percent.
When snapping rolls are new
they do their best work. If the
rolls become worn their usefull-
hess can be extended by rough
ing them up by adding beads of
metal with an arc welder. Most
snapping rolls have tapped holes,
so set screws can be added to
help pull the stalks through the
rolls.
Some farmers have found it
advantageous to wind some or
dinary poultry netting around the
top end of the rolls when they
become worn. The wire has a
tendency to pull loose, dry leaves
and broken stalks through the
rolls. When snapping rolls be
come badly worn they should be
replaced* - *
It’s also important to check
the timing on gathering Chains.
The flight of one chain should
fall half-way between those of
the bating chain. This helps as
sure even feeding.
Husklhg Bed Important
Another important part of the
cornpickcr is the husking bed.
Here again adjustments vary be
tween one picker and another
because of design* but in general .................nu... m
Late seeding and late spring,
combined with poor harvesting
weather and late maturing were
blamed for the small crops.
Reject Gas Contracts
The Federation is warning
farmers not to sign present cop
tracts being offered from Dres
den to Hamilton.
. F Of A officials charged the
contracts contain “very serious
discrepancies” whi^h give the
company legal power oyer entire
farms, not just the area in which
the pipeline is being laid.
Officials said farmers were led
to 0 believe the contract allowed
the company to put its line
through «*> previously agreed up
on route, but the agreement actu
ally allows the company to lay
its pipe on any section of the
farm and even erect buildings
wherever it chooses.
* For the right-of-way, the com
pany is paying farmers $1.00
plus $1.00 a rod for the length
of the line.
The Federation executive also
approved a resolution advocating
that medical and dental .ex- ,
penses be exempted from in
come taxes.
Prepare Policy Statement
Plans were made for the an
nual meeting in Toronto from
November 5 to 8. One of the
highlights of the convention will
be the presentation of a policy
statement which will deal with
such questions as credit, market
ing and radio broadcasting. The
Ontario organization-, has never
before prepared a brief on its ob
jects and opinions.
A meeting of directors will be
held next week in Toronto to ap
prove convention plans.’
The executive also discussed
marketing legislation which- is
now under review by the Sup
reme Court of Canada. A judg
ment "is expected early in Oc
tober.
Beca US e of crop failures this
summer, the Federation declared
Ontario farmers would require
additional credit to tide them
over to next spring.
They’re faced, however, with
the problem of higher interest
rates and a recent federal gov
ernment policy of restricting
credit, Bank loans to farmers
for operational purposes are in
creasingly difficult to secure.
! Estimates on grain harvesting
i for 1956 range from 10 percent 1 of normal in eastern ’ Ontario
j counties to. 60 percent of normal
in the HamiltonTToronto area. Steve Eider 10H, 'Reports from Ontario’s fruit
