Less Sand in Fertilizer
Assured By Grade Lists
RALEIGH, There will be a
whole lot less sand in fertilizers
sold in North Carolina in the com
ing crop year.
This will be the result of remov
al from the fertilizer grade list of
two old familiar but uneconomical
formulas 3-8-5 and 4 8 8. The
former for many years was a po
pular grade with tobacco farmers
and the latter was widely used for
general crops, especially corn.
They were cheap in price, but ex
pensive in use, for 3 8-5 carried 520
pounds of said to the ton and
4 8-8 had nearly 400 pounds.
The fertilizer lndusfry itself
joined with agronomists in recom
mending that these two grades no
longer be registered for sale in
North Carolina. To take the nlacs
of 4-8-8 they recommended 5-10-10.
containing the same proportionate
parts of essential ingredients In
a higher ratio.
Accepting these recommenda
tions, the State Board of Agricul
ture recently adopted a fertilizer
grade list of 24 mixtures for 1948
49. as follows:
For tobacco only 2-10 8, 3-9-6
4-93, 69-3, 5-5-20 (top-dresser).
For tobacco and general crops
3-9-9, 4 12 8.
For general crops 0-12-12. 0-10-20,
09-27, 014 7, 2 12-12, 3 9-12,
3 12-6, 4-10-6, 4-12-4, 5-10-5. 510 10,
6 6-12. 6-8-6. 7-7-7, 10-6-4, 14-0-14
(top-dresser), 10-0-30 (top dresser).
Boy vs Policemen
CHAMPAIGN, III. (AP)
Five year old John Taylor Win
low's release from the police sta
tion was a relief to policemen.
Johnny showed up one afternoon
plodding along in cowboy boots.
He was obviously lost but made
himself at home at police head
quarters. He emptied all 28 private mail
boxes of police officers, broke the
hyrdometer used to measure the
sufficiency of antifreeze in squad
cars, and hung by his heels from
the radio wires under the radio
desk. One of h exnlnratorv trips,
however, took him into a jail cell
and he swung the heavy steel door
shut behind him. There he stayed
until bii mother arrived.
Mer Ues
Auto Capitol
DETROIT The rear-engine
Tucker invaded the automobile
capitol recently for the first show
ing of its production model sche
duled to roll off lines in the Chi
cago automobile plant this sum
mer. Detroit newsmen, who have fol
lowed the Corporation's develop
ment since operations were moved
to Chicago, were the first to see
Tucker's new automatic transmis
son which company engineers claim
is the greatest single advance in
the field over the past 10 years.
Demonstrated in the private
showing on the outskirts of Detroit
were two complete cars and a chas
sis equipped with the new trans
mission, which combines charac
teristics of current torque conver
ters and automatic transmissions
to provide continuous, variable
speed through use of fluid -couplings
and a controlled planetary
gear train.
"This transmission represents
an entirely new approach," said
Warren Rice, engineer in charge
of the transmission development
program. "We have eliminated
many of the complications inherent
to the automatic transmissions,
and achieved in some ways sur
passed torque converter perform
ance without the many precision
parts that makes this tvne of trans
mission so costly to produce."
Rice said the dash control has
onlv three positions forward, neu
tral and reverse and the design
provides all the torque needed
under all conditions without the
additional "low" position added
for emergency pnwr in current
automatic transmissions.
"Our uni( has no heat exchang
er, because we haven't encounter
ed excessive heat." Rice said. "The
highest temnerature we have re
gistered tinder th" most severe
conditions is 225 drgreps F.. and
we can stnnd up to 350 degrees
before we meet any difficulty."
To demonstrate efficiency of the
unit, the chassis had both a speed
ometer and tachometer mounted
on the instrument panel. In road
tests? the Tucker reached a road
speed of 100 mnh at 3000rnm, com
pared with 5100 and 5300 rpm
respectively for two other stock
ears in comparable speed and
horsepower ranges.
From idling speed, the Tucker
engine was brought up and held
to 1500 rpm. and the chassis
reached 50 mph within less than
600 feet.
An exclusive feature that will be
included in the production lab, is
an anticreeo brake which operates
automatically to hold the output
shaft in th transmission at idling
speed. This mechanism operates
on a separate hydraulic circuit.
"Cars with this transmission will
'push start' at 10 miles per hour,"
said Rice. "We tested other ears
at the same time, under identical
ronditions and temperatures, and
they required from 23 to 31 miles
per hour to turn the engine over."
Automotive writers who rode in
the cars and drove the chassis
found essentially the same features
that were promised when the
Tucker was first announced, in
cluding the 166 horsepower op
posed liauid-cooled six cylinder en
gine in the rear, hydraulic trans
mission of power from enine to
wheels and a crash pad and safety
compartment in the front passen
ger section.
"We found some changes neces
sary from original plans as our
production model was devploned
chiefly in the interest of holding
down production cost to compete
In the medium price -class," said
E. Offutt, chief engineer.
"Our first series will have drum
brakes. We had an efficient disc
brake in the beginning, but we
found it too costly to produce in
a stock car. We are testing an
other design that looks prom'sine
frm a production standpoint. nd
if it proves satisfactory and isn't
too expensive to build we will put
it in the next series."
The present model use s'nple
rarburetor. but Offutt said fuel in
jection is planned later as national
eonioment. The only noticeable
change from the original desn
was incorporating a differential in
stead of using two torque conver
ters "We built torque converters thai
worked, but found they nded
further development to achive
aeeeptble efficiency and at the
sam time hold manufacturing oosl
withih reasonable limits," Offutt
said.
"W in th 'nijiner'ni' Heprt-
ment believe this automobile will
ou'-perform any stock car built
today, and it has important fea
tures that no Other manufacturer
offers in any price range.
"Our most imoortant contribu
tion, in our opinion, is increased
safety, not only in design and con
struction of the body, but also in
weight distribution for better hand
ling and safer stopping in emer
gencies." The engine, , transmission and
differential are a single unit that
Tucker engineers say can be taken
out by competent mechanics in
half an hour without special tools.
The engine is less than half the
weight of standard automobile en
gines of comparable power and
performance.
This is the automobile. You are
going to see a lot more of them
on the road before the year to
over."

On the following questions raised
at June's commission meeting
George McNeill, town attorney,

the question, "Who's the harbor

wered. Town docks The town has no
right to lease docks exclusively to

for their imagination to fill in.
The general attitude of the men
was one of a group of tourists.
Nevertheless, they seemed impa
tient to get home and expressed
he belief and hope that the boat
would leave that night.
With an air of contentment, the
ngent, who makes his home in Wil
mington, leaned back in his chair
is the interview concluded and
remarked with a chuckle, "You
might add that a pleasant trip was
enjoyed by all."
Although the interview turned
out to be a very entertaining one,
I'd still like to know just how big
that ship was.

the consumer is concerned. It is
