THOUGHT OF THE WEEK: "PUPPY LOVE", the greatest love of
our life time. The other night I was watching two young people
and there was no doubt in anyone's mind that there was the real
■thins (puppy love). The happiness that showed in each one's
face was wonderful. Maybe we should put the puppy love back
into ourselves and let the world see the glow upon our faces.

Insist on answers
to these five questions
before you buy a J
self-propelled
you buy a proven system with a
Valley Self-Propelled
1. Does it have real protection against rust?
The Valley is almost totally galvanized for twice
the life, and there’s a 10-year warranty against
corrosion. Know anyone else who even talks
about corrosion protection9
2. How accurately does it distribute water?
Will it provide uniform distribution of water
across its entire length? Does it have
individual adjustment at each nozzle9
Ours does.
3. Is the resale value good?
There are thousands of Valley systems across
the country. Many are 16 years old and
they’re still operating. A used Valley is a
valuable asset.
4. How about reliability and maintenance?
Steel wheels outwear rubber 4 to 1. No flats!
No expensive tires to replace and remount!
A simple water hydraulic drive eliminates
expensive electric motors, switches, wiring,
chains, and sprockets, generators and high
pressure oil hydraulics.
5. Is there good service available?
Valley factory-trains serviceman to know
every nut and bolt. He lives in your community,
too, so he can get to your place fast.
Ask these five questions when you're looking at
self-propelled irrigation. Then come see me
to see how you can realize more
with the Investment in a Valley ^jlf-Propelled.
