These are precautions recommended by the National Founda
tion for Infantile Paralysis when polio is around. Also, wash
hands before eating and be on the alert for such symptoms as
feverishness, sore throat, headache, upset stomach or sore muscles.
They may—or may not—mean polio. If the disease does strike,
call your doctor promptly, follow his advice. Your local National
Foundation chapter will provide needed assistance.

Young lowa Trucker
Wins Safety Contest
Hauls 7,000 Hogs,
3.000 Cattle a Year
I Walter Sellnau, 27, of Charlotte,
lowa, was winner of the seven
month Chicago livestock trucker
safety program sponsored by the
Chicago Stock Yards in its cam
paign to reduce the annual national
loss of $33,000,000 in meat through
safer livestock hauls to market.
Sellnau was awarded SI,OOO worth
of bonds and merchandise for his
outstanding hauling record. Judged

states and Canada who participated
William J. O’Conner, (left)
general manager of Union Stock
Yards, presents an award to
champion trucker, Walter Sel
lnau of Charlotte, lowa.
In the program, Sellnau’s seven
trucks traveled 80,000 miles to and
from Chicago, carrying 7,000 hogs
«nd 3,000 cattle.
A newcomer in the trucker busi
ness, he has been hauling livestock
to market for only a year and a
half.
Sellnau uses care in his livestock
hauls. He carries a portable load
ing chute under his truck for use in
farm yards where there is no regu
lar loading chute. He also uses an
electric prodder on livestock in
stead of a whip or club, and places
sand and limestone on the floor of
his truck to lessen the chances of
falling and bruising.

the entire load range; battery ig

Pasture Weeds,
Agent Says
BY W. T. MIDDLEBROOKS
County Agent
Weeds are one of the greatest
enemies of pastures, because
they rob the pasture plants of
water and plantfood, kill them
by shading and crowding, and in
many cases give objectional flav
ors and odors to milk and other
products when grazed. Some
weeds are also poisonous.
One of the most effective ways
to control weeds is to kill them or
prevent seed from maturing by
mowing. To do this, mowing
must be done often enough to
keep the weeds down and before
seeds mature. In most cases when
the petals of the flowers begin to
turn brown the seeds are far en
ough advanced to germinate.
Many pastures have been and
are being mowed now; others
are not. A good program of mow
ing for the weeds common to
Georgia pastures is late May and
early June for the early weeds,
July, for mid-season weeds and
September for late weeds.
Don’t forget or neglect weeds
along fences, ditches, stream
banks and water places. Often
they are the main sources of in
festation.
comfort; strengthened chassis
from front to rear, and weight
matched to power for high-trac
tion pull.
Like all the other Farmall
tractors the Cub, Super A,
H and M the new Super C has
a full line of matched, quick
change McCormick equipment de
signed especially to use with it.
This includes direct-connected,
forward-mounted and trailing
equipment.
Nearly 1,000 Georgia farm boys
and girls who belong to the 4-H
club are attending district project
achievement meetings during the
months of June and July.

PEACH PROSPECTS
Georgia’s peach crop is esti
mated at nearly 4% million bush
els in 1951 and this is well over
four times larger than the 1950
crop of less than 1,000,000 bush
els. The 1951 harvest, however,
is slightly below the average of
4,790,000 bushels produced dur
ing the period 1940 to 1949. In
general, according to the Georgia
Crop Reporting Service, quality
of the crop is good and insecC
damage has been less than in re
cent years.
