The Rural Voice, 1983-10, Page 43WHAT'S NEW? Humboldt -Deutz AG, Cologne, West Germany, manufac- turer of the Deutz -Fahr air-cooled diesel tractors, and rotary haymaking equipment. The firm began marketing a rectangular baler in the U.S. and Canada in 1982; its round balers, widely used in Europe, are new to North America. The Deutz -Fahr GP 220 Round Baler makes bales 4 ft. wide by 4 ft. diameter in a baling chamber equipped with 16 coated steel rollers. Bales have a soft core and an ex- tremely tight outer wrap layer to assure maximum quality and minimum leaf loss. The baler ties automatically, reducing driver fatigue and virtually guaranteeing uniformly -shaped round bales. The first Deutz -Fahr round halers should reach dealer show -rooms in the U.S. and Canada early in 1984.❑ Moisture tester The Agrofarm automatic grain moisture tester operates on high frequency radio waves, automatically adjusting 1000 psi for ambient temperature.

Only the mining and forest industries are con- sidered more dangerous. However, it does not have to be this way. Almost all farm accidents are a result of an un- safe act and not unsafe conditions. The number of farm accidents can be reduced if farmers take time for safety and make sure all their employees follow basic safety precautions. LOW COST ECONOMY COLD!
