John Hadley, Englishman, in-
vented the sextant in 1731. An
instrument for measuring angular
distances, the sextant "shoots" the
sun or a star to determine its al-
titude above the horizon.

CARE FOR THE SOIL...
IT CUES FOR Will
The return you get from a good crop yield will
offset by far the money it costs on an average to
restore your land to a good,rich,productive soil.
Preventing erosion is also money saved by keeping
the usable soil productive. If you have unan-
swered questions, consult the Department of Agri-
culture representative in your area.

Fortunately the majority of our nations farmers are a frugal lot and all to
their credit, too. They never get caught with a low crop yield because of
neglect in keeping their acerage up to good soil standard. The old days are
gone forever when th£ farmer merely tilled his soil, planted it and said a
prayer for a good crop. Now he makes certain his land contains all the neces-
sary nutrients to produce the yield he expects to receive.
