metals to drive
out
pores of
every trace of
moisture and leave an invisible film of
protection that positively prevents re-
entry of damaging moisture.
It also provides a thin film of lubrica-
tion that keeps moving parts and
operating mechanisms running smooth-

EARLY TIMOTHY
OFFERS OPPORTUNITIES
Salvo timothy, available through Se -
Can Association members is an early
timothy which has distinct applications
in Ontario, Quebec and in the Mari-
times.
In Ontario and Quebec, the primary
use is in mixtures with alfalfa to
provide early cut haylage.
In the Maritimes, Salvo can be used
to spread out the harvesting season for
hay or ensilage by providing a good
early cut crop. TNgr Xi&o or Tut m,c,ir mno-
Salvo was developed at Agriculture
Canada's Ottawa Research Station in Co*W GRow— &' r (Egvf r.oy PA<►vrs
direct response to requests for an early peenr[
timothy to combat the invasion of
perennial weeds in alfalfa.
Salvo is very early. In Ottawa, heads
emerge about May 26 and bloom starts
about mid-June. In the Maritimes Salvo
is about a week later; in Southwestern
Ontario, about a week earlier.
Selected from Champ, Salvo retains
the characteristics of quick recovery
and high -yielding second cut which
makes it especially valuable in alfalfa
mixtures.
For more information on Salvo, con-
tact a local SeCan member or dealer.
COMBINE IMPROVEMENTS
Two new row -crop heads, 8 -row wide
and 12 -row narrow for the 8820, head
the list of significant improvements for
John Deere combines for 1983.
The new heads allow operators to
utilize the full potential of the 8820 in
such crops as soybeans, sorghum, and
even sunflowers. Both sizes feature
proven low -profile header design which
permits fast ground speeds with virtu-
ally no header losses. Angled, floating-
point gatherers gently slide under
lodged crops guiding them to variable -
speed gathering belts which grip the
stalks firmly to assure smoother, conti-
nuous feeding. Because there is no
reel, there is very little shatter loss.
Other improvements include a Har-
vesTrakTM monitor, optional on all self-
propelled John Deere combines except
the 4420, which tells the operator
whether he is overloading or underuti-
lizing the combine's capacity; dual -
range cylinder drive, offering cylinder
speeds from 350 to 1240 rpm, standard
equipment on all "Titan" models except
the 4420; and high -flotation 73x44-32
tires, available as optional equipment
on the 8820.
