May 24 A com mercial early potato crop of 3,772 000 bushels for N-rth Carolina this year 43 per cent less than the O.ot'O.OOO of U'-to is fore cast by the State iiepartment of Agriculture. This year's production, based on Mav 1 prospects, is expected i to be only 13 per cent larger than the short drought-stricken crop which were produced in li'3'3 and 11' i I, saiil the report. Frequent heavy lair.s through out the usual planting sensor., said the release, delayed plant ing from two to four weeks or more in some areas. The heavy rainfail al so caused considerable seed ro:. which necessitated replanth.g. re duced stands to below average. and leuchtd the fertilizer. J. J.

Our town'i got a lot of men in the service now, Jim. in fact, all towni have. I was just reading in thepaper where there are more than 10,000,000 men away from their homes in the armed forces. And, from all reports, they're doing a frand job bringing victory closer every day. "We folks at borne have a mighty big obligation to those 10,000,000 fighting men We've got to produce the food to keep them well fed, We've got to keep them supplied with the ammunition and equipment they need to finish their job. We've got to help the Government pay for all these supplies our men need by buying more and mora War Bonds. We'll have another big chance to do that by helping to put the om War Loan drive over the top, Jim. "And, m addition, we mutt be sure that, while they're away and can't pr8thMr opinions, we don't go voting on and deciding any jKinp that will displease them when they come back " mod- has exhausted.

'Jo per cent of these trucks are sched uled for production during the first half of UK. and no resump tion of passenger ear production is now eontt mplau-d. "If this production schedule measured against a normal and accumulated demand for more than a million trucks alone" said Mr. Musselman, "it is obvious that no truck owner should be encour aged to expect that he will auto matically obtain a new truck as a replacement for the worn out or out-moded truck which he now' owns." Despite this pessimistic outlook however, there is a brighter side. The replacement parts situation is better. With a more adequate supply of parts which should be available this year, the nation's trucks and automobiles can be kept in operation by minimum overhauling and by regular pre ventative maintenance.
