(This message provided through the courtesy of Hensall District Co-operative) What kind of fuel should your new tractor burn? That is perhaps the most difficult question to an- swer every time we plan to buy an extra tractor or trade in one that has seen better days. There are three kinds of fuel used in farm tractors — gasoline, diesel fuel and liquid propane. Since liquid propane tractors are still fairly rare in Ontario, and since many dealers are not yet equipped to service these engines, we will compare gasoline and diesel tractors in this column. If readers are interested in the pos- sibilities of liquid propane engines, we will discuss them in a later column. Basically, tractor costs can be broken down into fixed costs (over- head) and operating costs. General- ly, as one goes down, the other goes up. You can't have your cake and eat it too. We'll talk a little about figures in a minute, but first there are some other considerations, too, in the decision as to which tractor to buy. They pretty well centre around what kind of service is expected from the machine. Cold weather starting is one factor. Gasoline tractors generally start more easily than diesel, although newer diesel models certainly have •improved cold weather starting aids such as manifold heaters. A diesel engine, by its very na- ture, has better "Iugging" ability tinder heavy loads than does a gasoline engine. Fire hazards are less with diesel tractors, and so is the amount of fuel evaporation from storage tanks. Now let's go back to a look at the figures. Fuel cost per hour is lower with diesel, but this is coun- terbalanced by a higher initial cost for the tractor and consequently a higher fixed cost per hour of use. This means that unless you use the tractor a lot of hours per year, the lower fuel cost may not be enough to balance out for the higher overhead cost. Overhead cost include deprecia- tion, interest on the money invest- ed, repairs; and a small amount to cover insurance and housing. Cal- culations based on a large number of farm tractors come up with an annual cost of 1'7.6 per cent of the purchase •cost for diesel and 16.6 per cent for gasoline. The differ- WAINEMMINEWRIMINIMEMEIMMinalinglialSO 1.114-7 'II ill ence is in repair bills. Not only do you pay a bigger percentage of the original cost in upkeep each year, but the original cost of the diesel tractor is higher too. If you can use the tractor a lot of hours a year, and will be ex- pecting a good deal of heavy lug- ging ugging from it, then take a good look at diesel.

Hensall UCW Hear Bible Study On 'Man's Mission' The February meeting of Unit 4 of Hensall UCW was held in Fel- lowship Hall on Thursday after- noon, with an attendance of 29 members. The highlight of the meeting was the Bible study by Mrs. Eric Luther, who used as her theme, "Man's Mission on Earth". Ques- tions under discussion were, "What is man's plan for a future life? What is your view of after life? How can Christians help spread the Gospel to today's world? Will there ,always be wars and violence and why does God allow people to starve? Mrs. Luther had Bible references read by members to an- swer these different questions. Miss Greta Laramie favored with a piano selection with variations. Hostess was Mrs. Frank Harburn. In answer to the roll call for the March meeting each members is asked to bring an article about China. Mrs. E. Rowe and Mrs. R. Erratt reported on the Huron and Perth Huron -Perth Presbyterial UCW Elects New Officers hi Mitchell The annual meeting of the Hurr. on -Perth United Church Women Presbyterial met Wednesday at Main Street United Church, Mitch- ell, The theme was deeper com- mitment and wider horizons. The women used their imagina- tion to make the meeting as inter- esting as possible. A challenge to stewardship was presented by Mrs. Alex Sinclair, Sebringville; Miss Ethel Gabel, Zurich; Mrs. Walter McDonald, RR 1, Gadshill, emphasizing the need to give freely of not only money but also time. An item on the program listed as "Under Attack" proved to be an interesting presentation of annual reports in the form of a panel dis- cussion. Rev. Morley Clark, London, field secretary for Christian education for the London Conference, looked at a chapter of the UCW study book, Man Alive. He presented for discussion the purpose—to en- able the group to take a hard look at their community and assess the deepest needs of the people there and plan for relevant action. The guest speaker for the after- noon session, Mrs. B. C. Neice, of Essex, emphasized that one must believe "on" rather than believe "in"` Believing "on", she said, suggests a reliance •or confidence in something that we trust. We must let go and put full confidence in God. Miss Betty Facey, deaconess of Central United Church, Stratford, conducted the installation of the new officers: past presidents, Mrs. George Michie, RR4 Brussels, Mrs. Presbyterial meeting held in the Mitchell United Church.
