For the first time many farmers can buy non-pressure 10-10-30 that can be sprayed on the top of the soil. Both time and work are saved by pumping and spraying rather than carrying and dumping. Liquid mixed fertilizers must be handled the same as dry materials to get the same results. Most farmers are spraying and then plowing.

TILE REPAIRS should be completed before spring work gets too heavy. Check outlets carefully and remove all trees, brush and roots. Blowouts or open holes over a line indicate a broken tile. Dig down and replace the broken tile. Do a very careful job of fitting in the new tile and be sure to cover joints with tar paper or broken tile batts.

Finally, be sure all outlets are in good condition and aren't washing back. VACCINATING AND CASTRATING pigs will be much simpler if a convenient rack is built. This rack is 4 feet wide at the bottom and 3 feet high. The legs can be adjusted to get these dimensions. The trough is made from 2x12 plank, the legs are 2 by 4's and the braces are 2 by 6's.

A strap is used to hold the pig firmly in place. LIVESTOCK MANAGEMENT. Pigs should be vaccinated and castrated before they are weaned. Dehorn and castrate calves before fly time. Watch pigs for signs of anemia.

Put one or two shovels of worm-free sod in the pens where pigs can get at it.

14 Schools Enter F.F.A. Judging Event GARDENERS SEE FILMS ON ROSES AND PESTS Gardeners who attended the showing of a rose film for the Garden Club at Central school last night viewed many color pictures of roses. The pictures showed the propagation of fine roses in the field and the grafting, irrigating, fertilizing and dusting of the fields of roses, which after two years produced acres of color. Rose lovers particularly enjoyed the color pictures of named varieties of the best roses. This film, entitled "Rosa- ramn," was shown by Bill Olenhouse.

A film on garden pests was shown by Jim Bremmer of Swift and Co. This showed many varieties of insects, worms and bugs. The enlarged pictures of the tiny pests at work on leaves and flowers was instructive. The lesson to be learned from the film was that it is best to dust or spray a garden before the pests or diseases take hold, since prevention is much easier than getting rid of pests while they are doing the damage.

Hugh Campbell, Auctioneer BY GLENN MILLER When quiz shows were the big rage on the radio, one of the best was Information Please. It set the pattern for a lot of the "panel" programs that came along later.

I'm not sure whether it's still on the air or not, but when I used to listen to it they had four' of the brainiest people in the States on the show every week to answer the most difficult questions people could send in. I remember there was an automobile accident once that was blamed on Information Please. It was a minor accident, a man went through a red light and struck another car. When it got to court, he explained it this way: "Your Honor, I was listening to Information Please on the car radio and after a lot of difficult Questions they asked the four experts to suddenly close their eyes and tell what color of necktie they were wearing." "Franklin P. Adams and John Kiernan and the other closed their eyes and they couldn't remember what tie they had on." "I was playing along with them trying to answer the questions and I closed my eyes just as I got to the corner.

And, you know, I didn't know what tie I was wearing either." He lost the court case, too. Radios, I guess, can be a distraction when you're driving, some people refuse to have them on. I like the radio on for long drives, I think it help keep you alert. I'm not one to close my as I reach an intersection, anyway. When you're shopping for a used car, the fact that some cars are already equipped with radio can be a big consideration.

When you're looking them over at our place, take the car of your choice out for a test drive first, and try the radio, too.
