After sending out notices to all
those on record in our office, we find
a good many who have not yet signed
their applications for gin ccrtJTicates.
These must be in the office not later
than June 15th. These blanks are all
filled and ready for your signature
which will only take a few minutes of
your time. Parties making application
for these must apply in person as
these are signed for before a notary
public or someone appointed to wit
ness the signatures. I am afraid that
some are going to pass this up, and
if they do, there will be nothing left
for them to do but pay the tax on
their cotton this fall. There just isn’t
any other way around this. There may
be sorrie growing cotton this year who
are not on our records. If so please
come in and sign these papers as soon
as possible.
Parties who are growing cotton this
year on old cotton farms will be al
lotted a small amount of certificates,
provided these are signed for in this
allotted time.
Many people, I am afraid, are con
fused by thinking that since they
have a contract this covers their gin
certificates. However, this is not the
case. These must be signed for just
the same.
All these applications must be in
Raleigh on June 20th. After these are
sent to the State Allotment Board,
there isn't anything further we can
do about it. Delay is always fatal.
Look after this work now.

The Week in Aberdeen
F.ARMEKS SEE FEKTILI/EK
AND TOP DRESSING WOKK
Three field meetings were held in
Moore County la.st week at places
where fertilizer and top dressing
work is being carried on and studied.
The first of these was held with the
Rev. T. S. Guy on the old McLean
place. Mr. Guy has two varities of
wheat, both of which are fine, and
makes an interesting study for any
one interested in this type of work
and is well worth a trip to see. One
field is planted to Red Heart and the
other to Leaps Prolific. A good part
of this is also seeded to Lespedeza this
year.
Walter McCaskill and his father, as
usual, have good wheat again this
year. All this is Red Heart but there
are two strains of this. B'rom all in
dications now their yield is going to
be good despite the fact that rust has
struck the fields .some. It however
does not seem to materially affect
this type of wheat. These men are
demonstrating the possibilities of
wheat growing in the Sandhill section.
The third meeting was held w’ith
W. C. Garner near Acorn Ridge
School House. It is interesting to
note the progress that has been made
in the pioduction of wheat in this sec
tion also. The addition of cover crops
and top dressing has materially in
creased the yield in this section. Mr.
Garner was in the Mater Farmer
contest a few years ago, and had not
misfortune befallen him, would have
been right at the top of the list. He
lost his records on the way to deliver
them to the county agent and they
were nevei' found.
The 1935 General Assembly enact
ed a law known as the Uniform Driv
er’s License Act. That title isn’t all
you will have to know about the law
if you drive an automobile—even oc
casionally—and the purpose of this
article is to acquaint you with some
of the things you will have to do to
avoid running afoul of the penalties
provided in the act.
First, you will naturally want to
know what you have to do to obtain
a license, and what that license will
cost. If by November 1, 1935, you will
have been driving for at least one
year and have not been convicted
during that period for violation of
traffic laws, you can have a license
simply by applying for one (except
in a few cases, described below), if
you apply for a license before No
vember 1, it will cost you nothing;
after that date, $1.00. The Act be
comes effective November 1, but the
i State will have applications for li-
ccBises ready “90 days after ratifica
tion,” which will give you some four
months in which to apply:
The actual machinery for granting
licenses is not set up in the Act, but
a subsequent bill passed by the As
sembly creates a Safety Division of
the Motor Vehicle License Bureau in
the revenue department, and the Saf
ety Division, which will administer
the Act, will provide application
blanks and give ample public notice
when they are ready.
The law requires you to carry your
license at all times when operating a
car, and if you are caught dnv>ng
without one'you are guilty of a mis
demeanor and subject to a fine of not
more than $500 or imprisonment for
j not more than six months.
I The following classes of persons
' will not be licensed:
Persons under 16 years of age (as
private drivers) and chauffeui-s under
18. (No person under 21 is now per-
I mitted to drive a public passenger-
I carrying vehicle, other than a school
bus, for which the limit is 16.)
I Habitual drunkards or drug ad-
I diets. *
j Insane or feeble-minded persons
' (that lets a lot of us out).
Persons suffering from or afflicted
with physical or mental disability or
i disease which will serve to prevent
i such persons exercising reasonaole
control over a motor vehicle.
Licenses issued will be permanent
unless revoked f(Tr law violations or
unless the Safety Division chooses to
revoke all licenses, which they may
do more often than every three years.
After a general revocation, no fee
may be charged for the new licenses.
Chauffeurs have to apply annually.
Sus|)ension of U<-«*nse»
The Division may either suspend or
revoke licenses. Suspensions shall not
be for more than one year, and rev
ocations for not less than one year.
Licenses may be su.spended when the
licensee:
I (1) Commits an offense for which
; revocation is required upon convic
tion (see below);
I (21 Involved as driver in an acci-
I dent resulting in death, personal in
jury or serious property damage;
(3) Is an habitual reckless driver;
(4) Is incompetent to drive;
(5) Is an habiutal violator of traf-
fice laws;
I (6) Permits unlawful use of his li-
i cense;
I (7) Commits an offense in another
state which would require suspension
j here;
I (8) Has been convicted of illegal
I transportation of liquor.
Revocation of licenses is mandatory
; when any licensee has been finally
I convicted of manslaughter; driving
while intoxicated; using car in com
mission of a felony; hitting.and-run-
ning; perjury under automobile law;
1 reckless driving twice within 12
month.s; and illegal transportation of
liquor.
.'\Iisepllan*‘ous
Persons operating vehicles which
are the property of the Army, Navy
or Marine Corps are exempt, as are
operators of road machines, tractors
and other farm machinery.
Other miscellaneous provisions of
the Act which will interest you are:
Duplicate licenses cost you $1.
The method of examination for li
censes (after November 1, of course)
are to be set up by the Safety Di
vision.
Arrangements are provided for
persons to be instructed without hav
ing to obtain licenses for that.
Chauffeurs will have to wear
badges.
Persons whose license has been
suspended may appeal to Superior
Court.
