POST-WAR FLYING IN YOUR HOME TOWN
_By C. C. CAMPBELL, j^SSS^SS^Sc-
Locating an Airpark
Is our town large enough to sup-
port an airpark; What size facility
should we consider? How do we go
about selecting a site . . . financing
the proposition?
These are some of the urgent ques-
tions pouring into the offices of avi-
ation authorities. Each must be an-
swered separately in accordance
With the peculiar needs of the in-
dividual community.
; But some generalizations can be
made to serve as a basis for prelim-
inary consideration by a community
landing facility committee. Size of
the community may not be as im-
Location is one of the most im-
portant features. It must be con-
venient to the business or residential
section it is to serve. Folks will ob-
ject to making long surface trips
to and from the airpark. Situation
close to a major highway will elim-
inate the expense of developing long
access roads. On the other hand,
it must not be too close to heavy
surface traffic, high buildings, radio
masts, or chimneys which might of-
fer safety hazards.
Adequate size is determined by the
length of the runways. It can be
as little as 80 acres if properly
laid out in the shape of an L, T or
X. This would serve the personal

portant as the class of people who
live in it. If they are progressive,
they will want an airpark whether
the community be small or large.
Aviation leaders such as members
of the Personal Aircraft Council,
Aircraft Industries Association of
America, believe that every com-
munity (there are 16,752 in the U. S.)
should have at least one landing
facility. Present and immediate fu-
ture needs will determine the size of
the facility, with ample room for
expansion through additional air-
parks as the need grows in later
years.
Selecting the site for the airpark
may cause some trouble. Realty
•companies or land owners might be
inclined to sacrifice public interest
td a desire to unload unprofitable
land. With the cooperation of the
community, however, this can be
avoided. It is usually a good policy,
authorities believe, for several sites
to be chosen at first. Then the ad-
vantages and disadvantages of each
can be weighed and compared.
flyer and also be suitable for char-
ter, taxi-plane or feeder airline op-
erations, using planes up to 8,000 to
10,000 pounds. There must be ade-
quate areas for parking aircraft,
as well as for sites for various serv-
ice buildings, as the need arises.
Before making a final decision, the
landing facility group in charge
should seek the advice of competent
authorities on such matters as air-
port design, approaches, amount of
grading needed, types of soils, and
accessibility to the usual facilities
such as water, electricity, sewers
and telephones.
Many sites lend themselves to
some kind of park or recreational
development such as picnic areas,
lakes, tennis courts, swimming
pools, and other facilities which in-
crease the usefulness of the airpark
to all residents of the community
and help provide additional income.

• Nelson Eddy, with Orchestra Leader Robert Armbruster and Announcer
Frank Graham on stage of Studio C, CBS, Hollywood. Hear "The Electric Hour"
every Sunday on your CBS Station—3.-30, CWT.
Welcome back to "The
% \ Electric Hour,” Nelson.
v-Sfi We missed you this sum-
mer.
Go on. I’ll bet you say
that to every baritone you
meet. But thanks, Bob. It
is good to be back.
Would you have a word
of greeting for your an-
nouncer, Mr. Eddy?
Well, read my meter if
it isn’t Frank Graham!
What’s new in electric
light and power, Frank?
I could let you in on some
real news, Nelson. There’s
a great day coming, with
more and better things
than you ever dreamed of.
Mmmm. All run by elec-
tricity, I’ll bet.
You said it. Cheap, de*
pendable and plentiful
electric power, produced
under sound business

What’s more, the average
family gets about twice as
much electricity for its
money today as it did fif-
teen years ago.
That’s a fact, Nelson—
and it’s due to efficiency,
<-3/ experience and sound
business management.
Amen to that! Now, gen-
tlemen, shall we get to
work?

FIVE BILLION DOLLAR
FAMILY BUSINESS

(72 percent of the nation’s butter was home-churned
then; less than 20 percent today). When she pro-
duced more eggs and butter than the family could eat,
she would trade the rest for "pin-money” or frills.
Today, Grandma’s "pin-money” has become MG
money. Last year it added more than five billion
dollars to the income of U. S. farmers. That’s more
than hogs brought in—or cattle—or sheep. Just look:
1944 Gross Farm Income
Dc5ry Products;..........$2’969'000'00°1$5,264,000,000
Poultry Products;2,295,000,000)
Hogs.......................... 2,796,000,000
Catfie and Calves...................... 2,607,000,000
Sheep, Lambs and Wool.................; 450,000,000
And believe it or not, dairy products alone returned
more money to farm families than the entire com
and wheat crops combined!
Any way you look at it, cows and chickens is a
great industry. It is nation-wide, too. California
and Texas are crowding close on the leaders—Wis-
consin, New York, Minnesota, Iowa, and Pennsyl-
vania. From millions of small dairy herds and
chicken flocks in every state, as well as from large-
scale operations, comes the enormous volume of
dairy and poultry products that are such a vital
source of our nation’s food.

LET’S KEEP THE
MACHINE IN GEAR
In these days of mechanized farm-
ing practically everyone is famil-
F. M. Simpson jar with the gears that make the
wheels of tractors, combines, and other equip-
ment go ’round. We know that should one gear
be removed or get out of line—or even if a sin-
gle gear-tooth is broken—the machine won’t
run smoothly, if at all.
It is much the same with the livestock and
meat industry. The three main gears are the
producer, the processor and the retailer. When
any one of these "driving gears” gets out of
order, then the entire industry suffers. Coordi-
nation of their interests can contribute greatly
to the smooth functioning of the industry as a
whole. None of us gains by insisting too vigor-
ously that our part of the industry is the only
one which has problems that matter. We gain
more by trying to look at our particular prob-
lems as they affect all of us. In other words,
whatever hurts or helps the producer hurts or
helps the processor and the retailer also;
The livestock and meat industry is an im-
portant part of the national economic struc-
ture. We at Swift & Company believe that we
can contribute most to the welfare of America
—and ourselves—-by promoting harmonious
practical working relations between producers,
processors and retailers.

Reclaim Croplands
with Wheatgrass
Ranchers who have need of extra grass can often
bring abandoned croplands back into production
with crested wheatgrass. In tests conducted by
the Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station,
in cooperation with ranchers, and reported by
Clinton H. Wasser, good stands of crested wheat-
grass established on abandoned croplands in
northeastern Colorado have supported as much
stock per acre as two to four acres of good native sod
will in the spring and early summer. And it
makps pasture two or three weeks earlier in the
spring, and later in the fall when the moisture
is good.
Time to Reseed: September is a good time to
reseed lands to either crested or western wheat-
grass. The job may also be done in the late fall
or early spring. For best results, try six to eight
pounds of seed per acre drilled into grain, Sudan,
sorghum, millet or weed stubble. Land badly
grown up to perennial weeds may first require
heavy discing or even plowing before seeding.

CULL THE NON-LAYERS Mow!
Hens in your flocks that
are still producing eggs
regularly in the early fall
months are superior lay-
ers. They are the ones to
save for breeding stock,
writes H. L. Kempster, 4
chairman of the depart-
ment of poultry husband-
ry at the University of Missouri.
Mr. Kempster says it’s easy to select the good
layers. They are the hens with white bleached
shanks and with old, frayed and brittle plumage.
The slick hens with yellow legs and smooth
feathers are the ones that should be used for
poultry meat. They should be culled out of your
flock to make room for mature, ready-to-lay
pullets now on the range. As it doesn’t pay to sell
laying hens, try to examine all individuals in your
flock carefully. A red comb and moist, expanded
vent are sure signs of a layer. If the vent is dry,
puckered and yellow, you may be certain that
hen has stopped laying for some time.
ROY GUY REALLY
KNOWS SHEEP
When Roy F. Guy, head
lamb buyer for Swift & Com-
pany at Chicago since 1931,
was a lad of 17, he answered
an ad in a Kansas City news-
paper. That led to his first
job with Swift as a $4-a-week - jy.Li
messenger boy. Before his Roy F. Guy |i
first year ended, he had in show ring
doubled his salary and was getting a start in calf
buying. At the ripe age of 22, Roy Guy was head
calf buyer at Chicago. He held this post for 10
years and then went back to the starting line to
learn lamb buying. In his 46 years with Swifts
Roy Guy has bought many million lambs and
judged in many a show ring. But his greatest
pride is in the boys he hired and trained who have
made good with the Company. "I always told a
new boy to be careful in choosing his Company
and to stay with it,” he says.
