The Rural Voice, 1988-06, Page 8Deutz Allis Hay Equipment. IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT, YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT ALL. You're looking at "world class" hay tools, with unique advan- tages. See our HD square balers. A wide pickup feeds the rugged plunger that glides on ten sealed roller bearings at 100 strokes per minute. Makes dense, uni- form 14 x 18 -inch bales. Knotters are gear driven, eliminating chain noise and wear. See our GP series round balers. Fixed chamber steel rollers compress material from the outside in... to lock in nutri- ents and resist moisture. The 67 -inch wide hydraulic pickup gathers all the windrow so you get all the hay in the bale. See our Deutz -Allis mowers. SM disc mowers have rotating discs with paired knives that overlap from disc to disc for uniform mowing even in wet, tangled and down crops. Also available with a conditioner in three sizes. And check out our drum mowers, including a front - mounted model to let you cut an extra swath and cover acreage in half the time. See our rotary rakes and tedders. Rotary rakes carry and fluff hay into the windrow in- stead of beating, bunching and rolling it. Rotary tedders gently spread -out or fluff the hay for faster drying. Our combination rotary tedder/rake easily changes from raking to tedding. Don't buy another piece of equipment until you've seen it all. Stop in soon.

A decade or so ago food and beverage advertising was revolution- ized when Coke actually named Pepsi in one of its commercials. There seemed to be no limits to the deroga- tory comments and insinuations that one could make about a rival product. There was even the tub of margarine trying to sell itself as butter. Recently this style of advertising has taken another twist. Last year in a cold cereal commercial some slander- ous comments were made about broccoli, an obvious personal attack on the character of this well-meaning, wholesome vegetable. In the latest round of libelous statements directed at other food items, eggs have launched a scathing, demoralizing, and discriminating blow to liver by suggesting that they are more fun than this highly nutritious source of essen- tial minerals and vitamins. Granted, liver is perhaps not as popular among some segments of the population as the single -celled egg, but to imply that it is not a fun -loving food is indeed a serious accusation. We demand that eggs Get Crackin' and withdraw this statement from their ad, and make an apology to all liver.° Yours in foodland, APPLE (Association for the Protection and Preservation of Liver Everywhere) AG AWARDS ARE WELL-DESERVED When I scanned the list of winners of OMAF centennial awards I was pleased to see the names of three present and former OPPMB directors with whom I had the privilege of serving. Clare Curtin served in the Ontario Hog Producers Association and the marketing board from 1958 till 1974 and I remember him as an astute, down to earth thinker who has done more for Ontario hog producers than
