Times-Advocate, 1984-04-11, Page 21Three wheelers for farm use. Recently, Hully Gully, RR 1 Varna, one of Ontario's largest retailers of 3 -wheel all terrain vehicles made new in- roads into the uses of these machines. Randy Collins, general manager of Hully Gully, who once farmed the property the dealership now occupies, was quick to see the farming applications of ATC's. A neighbour, Bev Hill of Hill and Hill Farms, required a machine that could be used on wet fields early in the year, in this case, for the purpose of seeding red clover on wheat. Huily Gully obtained a special "HERD" seeder, specifically manufactured for such high flotation 3 -wheel vehicles as Honda's BIG RED ATC. These units are becom- ing increasingly popular in the farming areas of the United States, and through a Canadian supplier, Collins ob- tained such a machine for Hill and Hill Farms. ATC's are light and easy to handle, running only three pounds pressure in their tires, thereby assuring no soil com- paction. The seeder itself is electrically powered by the ATC's charging system, thereby eliminating the need for PTO drive. Fine accurate adjustments are possible with this compact seeder, and the benefits of not having to wait for fields to dry are obvious to farmers. Hully Gully not only distributes, but develops equipment for 3 -wheel all ter- rain vehicles, and besides this particular seeder, also offers sprayers, racks, hitches, trailers, snow -blades and the like for rural and farm needs. Because of his own farming background, Collins has established the 3 -wheeler locally as a viable farm vehicle. Now with the introduction of Bill 61, all terrain vehicles can be operated as a farm vehicle on road -ways as well as the fields. Today's farm machinery has become so specialized that an all pur- pose vehicle such as an ATV is now becoming more and more useful on farms to fill the gaps that equipment specialization has made. Three- wheelers are increas- ingly becoming the farmer's good right arm as a general utility vehicle, with capabilities to specialize as he sees fit at minimal cost. Hully Gully is doing more research'and development of ATV farm equipment and welcomes input from farmers. They may call Hul- y Gully, at 262-3318.

Church Service The fifth Sunday of Lent Church Service was in charge of Rev: Robert Matheson. The childrens story was entitled "New Life." Th. Scripture Isesson was read frotn Ezekiel 37z;1-3,11-14, Romans 8:6-11, John 11:1-45. The sermon was entitled "When The Well Runs Dry." In Romans 8:6-11 Paul reminds his readers of their past history - the days when their spiritual well had run dry. Now, he says, in the light of Christ we can celebrate spiritual wells which will never run dry! And this is just what Jesus demonstrates when, in John 11:1-45 He raises Lazarus from death. Jesus tells us, if we have faith in him in our spiritual well, we will never suffer spiritual drought. Spiritual drought means death. Faith in Christ means life -- Eternal Life! The first Confirmation Class will be held this Thurs- day April 12 at the church from 4:00-5:15p.m. Messengers will hold their meeting Wednesday, April 18 at 6:45 p.m. in the church.
