DO IT NOW
Famners, spring is here, which means that it is now time to start preparing for warm weather ac- tivities. Remember when , sum- mer comes it will be too late, -so as the slogan says, “Do it now.”
By this you should be deciding on how many acres of lhoed crop you plant, and which fields you would use for grain, hay or pasture, etc. When planning on
for hay and pasture, be sure that you top-dress adequately for the amount of stock you are going to keep for the next year.
This is also the time of’ year to check your machinery so- as to ensure that it will -be in good working order when it is needed. Remember our seasons are short so ‘break-down could be very cost- ly. If new parts are needed, or- «der them now so that repains and al-terastions can be made before the rush.
