The Natural Side Dresser
«t
Over 500,000 tons of Chilean Soda have been brought
in for this year’s crops. More is expected in time for side
dressing, but there are distribution complications. The
War Production Board and the War Food Administra
tion control distribution of all nitrogen supplies under .
an allocation program. Principally, this program takes
into account three things; (1) total supply of nitrogen
, products; (2) their respective locations and capacities;
(3) crop requirements. So, if Chilean Soda happens to
be scarce in your section, it is a war-time dislocation, a
x temporary scarcity.
U you haven’t been able to get the Chilean Soda
you need tor top dressing and side dressing,
*’ don’t blame your fertilizer man. Put the blame
where it belongs ... on Hitler and Hirohito.
A vast supply of natural soda is right where nature put it
—in Chile. Large quantities are ready for shipment
Every possible ton of this vital material is being brought
here in time for this year’s crops.

GOVERNING BODIES
DISCUSS PROBLEMS
(Continued from Page One)
could not share in the expense of a
proposed remedy.
Adjourning shortly before noon,
the Commissioners and Buff lap went
to the dock to make a survey and
decide upon some course to pursue in
making it adequate for boats to safe
ly use. It was tentatively agreed
that what temporary work is done
should be of a permanent nature for
use in completing the project after
the w r ar is over. Plans call for a new
row of piling just outside the present
row of old and rotten piling, many of
which are submerged. On these pil
ing, however, will be heavy timbers
at top and bottom for the purpose of
sheet piling when more permanent
improvements are made. The space
between the present dock and the
new row of piling will be filled in,
according to the plans as agreed
upon by both the Commissioners and
Town Councilmen.
The cost of the emergency im
provement is estimated to be in the
neighborhood of $3,500, and the com
mittee from Town Council was in
structed to secure a bid and present
plans to both groups as early as
possible so that the work may be
done in time to benefit shipping of
local crops by boat.

IN MEMORIAM
M. T. Lane
Brother M. T. Lane, of Route 2,
Tyner, N. C., was bom on July 17,
1895. He met his death on Novem
ber 26, 1943, as a result of being
thrown from his' farm cart when
struck by a car, on the highway at
Belvidere. Though carried to a hos
pital, he lingered only a short time,
and passed away.
He was a prosperous farmer, with
broad visions, and high ideals for his
family. In early manhood he joined
the Chappell’s Hill Baptist Church,
and was a member thereof when he
died. He was faithful as Sunday
School superintendent, as teacher
church clerk and deacon. During the
more than fifteen years that the
writer, his pastor, was privileged to
work with him, he was almost never
absent from the church services; and
his spirit of cooperation was some
thing beautiful to experience.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs.
Mary Elizabeth Lane; by two daugh
ters, Seva and Vida Lane, and one
small son, M. T. Lane, Jr., of Route
2, Tyner, N. C. Also surviving him
are five brothers and three I’sters:
E. J. Lane, Arthur Lane and L. H.

OUR APHMMTOTHE
VANISHING PINT
Banish your "shortage” cares? We can’t, ’cause it’s
true that Carstairs White Seal whiskey’s hard to get.
That’s because we’ve got to ration it, to keep it Iran
becoming the “vanishing pint.” But we think you’ll )
like our approach to the problem. You see, the Per*
lectly Balanced Blend won its favor with its quality.
Wdl, we won’t sacrifice that quality— even though our
prewar reserves are dwindling. So while our rare
whiskey’s not plentiful, when you do get some it’s as
pleasureful as ever. And nowadays that’s something.
