Anyone who's looked around knows the majority of Chevrolet models 6" s and V8's together list for less than comparable models of other low-priced cars. But the price tag alone is only one of a whole raft of reasons a Chevy does better by your dollars. Nothing near Chevy's size and price can match the Full Coil cushioning of its ride, or the fine, finished workmanship of its Body by Fisher. That even applies to some cars that cost a lot more. You're up in the higher price brackets before you find a car that moves as quietly as a Chevrolet or oilers the inner space that Chevrolet does. Or look at the extras Chevy gives you at no extra coM that others in its class can't offer at any price. Shock-cushioned steering. Safety flat? Glass in every win dow. Keyless locking of all doors.

Iffil For Nebraska Let Grass Get Started "Don't graze your pasture too early," farmers were warned this week by Harold Oilman, Extension Conservationist of the UN. of Nebr. "Give the grass a chance to build up its vigor and the stor age of some energy. Having two to four inches of growth on short growing grasses and four to eight inches of growth on the taller species prevents run off of water and reduces evap oration." A healthy and vigorous stand of grass discourages weed grow th and this in turn makes poss ible a high producing pasture, Gilman pointed out. Proper grazing management is essential if we expect to ob tain maximum yields from any pasture, he said.
