Automobile Drivers
Required To Pass
New License Test
Re-issuance In Compli
ance With New Law
In State
In accordance with the law passed
by the 1947 General Assembly of
North Carolina requiring the re-is
suance of motor vehicle driver li
cense, the following schedule has
been made: the period beginning
July 1, 1947, and ending on Decem
ber 31; 1947, is the time for all driv
er license holders, whose sur-names
begin with the letters A or 15 to ap
ply for new licenses. Persons whose:
names do not begin with one of the i
above letters cannot apply for re-is
suance of license in this period.
The period beginning January 1,1
1948, and ending on June 30, 1948, |
will be the time for all operators!
whose sur-names begin with
of the letters C or D to apply for re-'
issuance of licenses. All Motor Ve
bicle drivers whose surnames begin j
with a letter other than A. 15, C or D |
will be notified by press releases at i
"the proper time as to when they I
whould appear for the re-examination. I
The operator’s license issued under
the 1947 Safety Act shall automatic-J
ally expire on the birthday of the |
licensee in the 4th year following
the year of issuance, and no license
shall be issued to any operator after
the expiration of his license until
such operator has again passed the.
required examination.
Everyone w ill get a complete ex- j
animation. The examination is made j
up of four parts. These are (1) An j
eye test (2) highway sign test I
(3) driving rules test (4) road test.
The poorest visual reading that
will permit passing with glasses is
20/50. This may be with both eyes
together, or it may be with best eye
alone. The sign test consists of the
showing to the applicant several
pictures containing highway warning
signs. The applicant will be request
ed to tell what a driver should do
when he comes to such a sign. In
ability to read is not grounds for
denying a driver license. The rule

section of the examination consists
of twenty-five simple question! that
deal with safe operation of motor
vehicle. The road tests consist of a
drive of some twelve to fifteen city
blocks. In the past some applicants
have begun road test with the under
standing that the examiner would
tell him to pass red lights, exceed
speed limits, and otherwise drive im
properly. This, however, has not
been the policy in North Carolina
nor will it be during this re-issuance.
Previous practices governing the 1
issuance and use of learners permits 1
will not be changed. The only change
that will occur with respect to fees
charged will be the increase in the
cost of an operator’s license from one
to two dollars.
DDT Being Used
To Kill Wire Worm
On Tobacco Plants
I
Plan Adopted Following
j Visit to Pee Dee Ex
periment Station
■; ■. 1
As the result of a visit of farm ]
agents to the Pee Dee Experiment j \
I Station at Florence, S. C„ last week, i
County Agent C. W. Overman re- t
ports special emphasis being made <
on methods of controlling wire worm '
| oil tobacco. At the experiment sta-i (
tion .it was learned that DDT was: ]
being tried, so that Mr. Overman 1 1
brought a package of the DDT along f
home for the purpose of experiment- j
ing in Chowan County. h
First trials were started early this .
week, hut results of the tests are
! not yet available. Each farmer is
j being asked to leave a few rows
I where just plain water is used as a
check in order to determine results.
The agents were told at the Pee Dee
Experiment Station that this method
of controlling wire worm on tobacco
was being tried by several growers
in that area and was giving very
good results according to the farm- '
ers’ reports. Farmers also reported ■
some stimulation of root growth, giv-I ]
ing the plants a quicker start in the i
field.
Mr. Overman reports that blue
mold control in tobacco beds was :
satisfactorily accomplished where I«
Fermate spraying was properly done. ;
Several growers report that where '
their beds were properly sprayed and j
the plants were ready, for setting
in the field, they were ten days to
two weeks earlier than the unsprayed ,
beds. Blue Mold struck the unspray
ed beds, setting the bods back and;l
.in some instances, killing as many,
as 40 '/< of the plants. Many grow-L
ers did not spray their beds properly!,
chiefly because they were unable to |
obtain Fermate early and started
their spraying too late. Reports from ‘
some of these indicate that while ]
j they had blue mold it was held under
i control to some extent and they feel :
| that the spraying was very beneficial.
| A few growers stopped spraying too
I soon and blue mold struck the plants
I just as they were ready for setting •
in the field. From the various re
! ports received, and personal obser
j vations of Mr. Overman, the blue (
•mold disease can be controlled by
spraying with Fermate where the ;
spraying schedule is started when
the plants are about the size of a
dime, as recommended, and thorough
sprayings made every three to four
days until setting in the field is com
plete. Some growers seem to feel
that the Fermate tends to keep the
plants in a thrifty state making them “
! a little more tender and believe that
I spraying should be discontinued sev-

May Warn of Disordered
Kidney Action
Modern life with its hurry and worry,
irregular habits, improper eating and
drinking—its risk of exposure and infec
tion —throws heavy strain on the work
of the kidneys. They are apt to become
over-taxed and fail to filter excess acid
and other impurities from the life-giving
blood.
You may suffer nagging backache,
headache, dizziness, getting up nights,
leg pains, swelling—feel constantly
tired, nervous, all worn out. Other signs
of kidney or bladder disorder are some
times burning, scanty or too frequent
urination.
Try Doan’s Pills. Doan’s help the
kidneys to pass off harmful excess body
waste. They have had more than half a
century of public approval. Are recom
mended by grateful users everywhere.
Ask your neighbor!
