Industry fights farming woe o
One of the biggest problems a
farmer may have to contend with
is down-time. Even equipment in
good repair can break down at a
critical time: at seeding, at har-
vest. Shortages of machinery and
replacement parts have ag-

granted the situation.
The farm -machinery industry
is cooperating to reduce crop
losses caused by machine break-
down. International Harvester,
for example, has advised its
dealers, distribution centers,
plants and sales regions that
"service parts will be provided
for a customer with a `down' ma-
chine even if it means removing
the part from the assembly line".
This critical problem has been
alleviated to a degree by the fact
that, in recent years, major
farm -machinery parts depots in
Ontario have remained open, on
an emergency basis, on Sat-
urdays and holidays, at the re-
quest of the Farm Machinery
Board. Hal Wright, secretary -
manager of the Board, said,
"Plans are to continue this prac-
tice during the production season
for 1974."
Most companies have a sur-
charge to cover the additional
costs of this service which is us-
ually a percentage of the cost of
an order, with minimum and
maximum charges set.
"The machinery dealer, or the
farmer acting as a dealer's
agent, must pick up the parts
himself," Mr. Wright said. "Far-
mers should remeinber that the
truck lines and the express com-
panies do not make pickups of
parts at depots on Saturdays or
holidays."
Mr. and Mrs. Jim Toth, Robbie
and Billie of Kitchener were
weekend visitors with her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. John L.
Currie.
Mr. and Mrs. Bill Evans at-
tended the Masonic . service at
