THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY. S. C, Lift-Type Device Used on Tractor Will Aid Materially In Easing Farm Chores To help with those odd chores •bout the farm that so often are time-wasting and back-breaking, Pittsburgh forgings company of Coraopolis, Pa., has developed •' lift-type utility carrier for use on tractors. The Pittsburgh carry-lift is at tached in a few seconds to tractors through the regular implement sus pension points. Made of alloy spring steel and structural steel, it will handle loads as heavy as 700 pounds. An important feature of this new unit is its quick conversion from a platform lift to a fork lift, making it universal in the types of loads it can both lift and carry. It can be used as a platform lift either with or without a back panel, and pock- The farm carry-lift Is attached in seconds through the regular tractor implement suspension points. Heavy containers can be tipped and roiled onto the plat form without lifting. The trac tor engine raises the carry-lift. ets are provided for standard 2" x 4* stakes. The frame is punched to provide easy securing of loads and for the addition of a wooden plat form. Used as a fork lift, the utility carrier works like a small hay buck, and thus can pick up bulky material witout the lift having to be loaded by hand. Heavier loads can be handled in this way by us ing skid-pallets. Its capacity for light, bulky loads can be extended materially by putting 2*' x 4" fork extensions into the brackets pro vided. Lifting of heavy containers like milk cans, drums and barrels is eliminated by the carry-lift be cause these can be tipped and rolled onto the platform which prac tically rests on the ground. Small buildings, range shelters, and feed ers can be easily and quickly moved by tipping slightly and running the forks beneath them. Heavy bags of seed grain can be taken to the field with a minimum of lifting, and field feeding is made both quicker and easier. The carry-lift will be found par ticularly useful because material can be moved over any kind of ground, under any condition where a tractor can operate and in places that might be inaccessible by other means of transportation. t A victim of the war, the first red rubber agricultural belting has been made available to farmers by a Pennsylvania man ufacturer, Available since 1940 only as a higher-priced indus trial belting, the red rubber belt ing was a pre-war favorite with America’s farmers. This farm er’s smile as he gets his first roll indicates a big welcome its return to the farm mar ket. This belting is particularly popular because of its added flexibility and toughness. Value of Bicarbonate Use In Swine Feeding Tested An experimental feeding program to determine the value of bicarbon ate of soda in the feeding of hogs is being conducted this fall at Iowa State college. Experiments will be aimed at determining whether the feeding of bicarbonate of soda produces ob servable benefits in the growth of swine and whether the ingestion of amounts equal to 1 per cent of the ratios will oroduca results. WOMAN'S WORLD Moving Need Not Be Confusing If Operations Well-Organized B7 Ertta Haley W HEN MRS. X recently moved, most of her best china was broken beyond repair. When Mrs. B. gave up her home several years ago, the furniture which she had stored was found useless as she re- coveted it, and it had to be given away. Mrs. S., on the other hand, had dinner in her new home the same day she moved. Moving doesn’t occur too often for any of us, but when it does, it should be a smart move as well as a safe one. The job of moving is actually a very scientific one. When you follow the rules you’ll have a minimum of distress and confusion. It’s a big job to move household goods from one house to another, or from one town to another. It’s not a matter of piling things into the car and carting them over, even if the house is on the next block. Much can be done before the actual moving, and though, at first, this seems like an enormous job, it’s well on the way to completion by the time you’ve made a list of what can be done, and know how tt should be done. You’ll undoubtedly call in a mov er, or a warehouseman, as they are sometimes named, for the job. For your own safety and peace of mind, select one who is reputable. If fur niture or other goods are to be stored, the reputable dealer invites inspection of his quarters. After all, you’re going to trust him with the family possessions! Here’s the Routine For Moving Day Your rugs and carpets will be moved first. After this come the dinnerware, glassware, silverware, pots and pans. Unless you’ve made arrangements for having lunch, and possibly dinner out, better be pre pared with a thermos of hot coffee and sandwiches, along with paper plates and cups for the noontime meal. You many not want to tear yourself away from the packing long enough to get a snack outside of home, and this is an excellent idea for the meal since you don’t have to rely on your household equipment. You may plan to pack the dishes yourself, or have the mover do it for you. If you do it yourself, the materials may be provided for you: shredded paper, barrels and tissue paper. If the mover takes care of the entire operation, he makes him self responsible for any breakage which might occur. Fees are de termined by the hours worked. The heaviest dishes should be packed at the bottom of the barrel and lighter ones on top to cut down on breakage. Plates should never Make a Safe Move There’s no monotony in the much-used solid colors this sea son, especially when two tones of a color and several harmon ising or contrasting colors are used to such good effect. The sketch of the model here shows how the basically simple lines of a classic gabardine becomes dramatic with the play of color. In this case, two tones of gray are used, with silver pins high lighting the whole effect. An other popular combination is two shades of rich, gold-tinted brown. Moving day is comparative ly simple for this young home maker who has a reputable warehouseman packing her din nerware and glassware. Here she observes the mover care fully packing several plates in a stack with protective layers of shredded paper between each plate. The stack is then wra pped in tissue paper and placed on edge in a soft bed of shredded paper in the bottom of the barrel which has been tipped so the plates lay back. be placed fiat, but rather stood on edge to resist breakage if the barrel is dropped. Professional movers usually tip the barrel to get the proper pack. Glassware Needs Careful Packing If possible, never pack the glass ware in the same barrel as the dishes. If you do not have enough glassware for a separate barrel, it may be packed in the same barrel with the dishes, but special pre cautions must be taken against breakage. Protective excelsior bedding is needed for each piece. Each piece of glassware is wTapped in tissue paper. Fragile stemware needs spe cial tissue paper wrapping to pro tect the shank. When professionally wrapped, barrels with dishes and glassware allow no free space for the dishes to move since a slight move might shatter several pieces, if not the whole barrel. The pack is tight and safe. Keep Household Goods Properly Organized Get ycur pots and pans together before moving since they all go into excelsior paddel barrels. Toasters, irons and waffle irons should be covered and placed in the bottom of boxes or barrels with protection to keep them from mov ing about loosely. You don’t want them dented or marred. Wrap silverware in tissue paper carefully, be it flatware or serving silver. These, too, are placed in barrels. All barrels and boxes should be numbered. Keep a listing of what goes under each number so you can extract from the right barrel when you want a certain item. This avoids plowing into barrels or boxes you aren’t ready to unpack. You can do a lot toward speeding operations before movers arrive. Take the carpets off the floor and roll them neatly. Take down drapes and curtains and Venetian blinds. Many women feel it’s smart to have them cleaned at this time to save moving. If you launder curtains yourself, don’t iron until you arrive at the new place since they are easier to move when rolled instead of carefully boxed to avoid wrinkling. Keep Notebook For Small Items It’s discouraging to have some thing misplaced for months after moving. If you go through drawers and desks and cabinest with box in one hand and notebook in the other, much of the disorder may be saved. Small articles from certain draw ers may be placed in boxes to be returned to the drawers in the same order. Keep a listing so you can lo cate even a small item at any time. Lightweight items such as linen and clothing may be placed in dresser drawers for moving. Keep books, book ends and such heavy objects out of dresser draw ers for moving. Furniture is heavy enough by itself without being weighted additionally with several pounds of books. And, most furni ture drawers are not constructed to take such heavy items. They may give way and you’ll have a repair bill to pay as well as moving. Books are best packed in cartons which are tied securely. These are easily handled, and the books are kept together. Casters moved from furniture should be kept in well-labeled sets. Brooms, mops and curtain rods may be tied together with cord for easy handling. If you move the refrigerator have it serviced and bolted before the movers arrive. Work out fleer arrangements for the new home and tag the furniture. The movers can then route each piece to the room in which you want it. SCRIPTURE: Isaiah 1:10-20: Jere miah 7. DEVOTIONAL READING}: Psalm 24:1-6. Seven-Day Religion Lesson for October 9, 1949 Dr. Foreman E MPLOYERS don’t care much for letters of recommendation signed by preachers. Not that they think preachers are dishonest. The employer is glad to know where the chap is on Sunday morn ings. But he would rather have a letter from somebody who sees him every Saturday night and Mon day morning. • as. Religion Won’t Keep Sweet by Itself I T IS a temptation as old as religion, to put it on one side of a wall and life on the other. But the prophets showed, once and for all, that God has literally no use for religion which has been dissected off from life. Religion which is kept apart from life turns sour and bad. In Isaiah’s time, everybody knew there was something ■wrong with the country. Isaiah’s diagnosis was shocking: Religion is our principal trouble. God is tired of it. What? The pious people would exclaim. Look at the crowds in the Temple every holy day! Listen to all the prayers, count the number of tithers. If anything is wrong with our country, it can’t be religion! But religion it was. • • • Why God Was Tired A CATHOLIC priest would shock everybody should he call Vat ican City ‘‘Hell’s Half Acre.’’ Isaiah shocked his fellow citizens by calling Jerusalem ‘‘Sodom and Gomorrah.” Those cities were the worst places the Hebrews had ever heard of. They were so bad the Lord had to destroy them by fire— not 10 good people could be found there. The prophet fol lows up that first shock by an other. Every single expression of organized religion comes under the prophet’s lash. Sacrifices and offerings (T.ll), attendance at the sanctuary, ob servance of the Sabbath and other holy days (v. 13), church gather ings, corresponding to our rallies and conventions (v. 13), even prayers (v. 15). Put that into modem terms: at tendance at church, Bible reading, tithing, praying—if that is all, then all is no good. It may be religion, and of course it is one kind of religion; but not the kind God wants. Indeed, Isaiah says God hates it; he is “fed up” with It (vs. 11). What was wrong? Isaiah tells them that, too, in short simple words. "Your hands are full of blood.” Oh, the people would protest, we are not killers, we don’t lay a hand on anybody. Isaiah goes on to explain: seek judgment (i.e. Justice), relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow. You don’t kill outright, you churchgoers, he would say, but you are so indifferent to justice in your city, you take so little in terest in the people at the bottom of the heap, that people die here, widows and orphans die, simply because no one cares. • • • What Makes a Town Worth Saving? A LAS, nobody did care. One hundred and more years went by, and Jerusalem came close to its end. But nobody thought that disaster could strike. The belief had grown in every one’s mind that the Temple of the Lord would forever insure the safety of the city in which it stood. But a young prophet, Jere miah, preached a sermon on the Same theme as Isaiah’* (Jer. 7) It la not the temple that will save you, it is not church attendance that will bring you the favor of God. As the men of Jerusalem looked back to the great days of Moses, they thought of the sacrifices and offerings, the tabernacle and the rituals and all the pageantry and paraphernalia of a picturesque religion, as the great thing that God had given them. But God remembered it other wise. Jeremiah even says (with understandable exaggeration) that God had not said a word about sacrifices and offerings; the Ten Commandments, with all they im plied, were the main thing. What God looks for, back of an our church attendance and Bible reading, is “justice between a man and his neighbor.” A place where that can be found is a good place.
