Value of the Winch.—One of the pieces of equipment that often makes loading easy is the winch. For bulky products, particularly when they must be lifted some dis- tance from the ground, the winch is a real Mfes ver. Safes, baled hay and similar products will frequently call for a winch to handle them. In trucks fitted with a winch the part itself and the winch drive should be lubricated once a month. After carefully clean- ing off any dirt on the case, remove the top plate and put in enough trans- mission oil tobring the lubricant in the cage up to the level. A Clean Cluteh.—In motor truck service it is vitally important that the Shade and clean water during the summer months are essential to suc- cessful pork production. All kinds of hogs must have shade. Too much direct sunlight and heat is a frequent cause of hogs failing to thrive and is often the cause of hogs dying.
