SEVERE TEST FOR
FORD RADIATORS
In the Highland Park plant of the
Ford Motor company at Detroit, there i
is a machine which tries with all the
efficient fiendishness of an inline of
destruction, to shake the life out of a.
Ford automobile radiator in the short-,
f'st possible time.
Ten hours is the time allotted to
this machine, known as, an "agitator,"
to do all within its power to rum
watpr-filled Ford radiator. At the
end of that period the much abused
radiator is taken of the machine and
examined bv experts for any signs of
damage and a brand new Pord radi
ator, also filled with water, is put on
for another ten hours of torment.
This agitator device is part of the
testing equipment for radiators that
are being built for the new Model
"A" Ford car. When you watch it
jiggling and jolting and shaking the
gurgling radiaor. you. have a feeling
that no automobile driver could drive
a car over roads and at a spccd.whic.i
would give it such a severe shakim?
up and stil hold on to his wheel and
his scat. Then the factory foreman
tells vou that within the period o!
ten hours this agitator gives the new
radiator more and ' severer jars and
jolts than the average Ford car will
get in its whole lifetime of service.

Mrs. Hurst Wants Agent
Franklin, N. C, Oct. 30, 1928.
Dear Major Harris w
Your paper is doing much, to in
form the voters of the county , what
each candidale for commissioner ex
pects to-do in the future manage-,.,-.nt
f ihp roiintv affairs. Hut each
voter smust spend a little time talk
ing politics in order to know, what
the commissioners expect to do when
thev are in office. -n
I hope every man and woman will
learn what candidates expect to do
libont our county agent. The time
ia find this out is before -election
ishtuve j and vote accordingly. If we will only
of the stand -behind him and help him to
the. vision of everv hillside
of apples down to Kaleigli jusi to
' show those from the lowlands-what;
Western North Carolina can do" in the
way of growing apples. F-wn Mr.
Jenkins who had always considered
" himself more or less an authority on
: apples was immensely impressed with
' the luscious fruit shown by Dr.
' Kent, so much so, in fact that he
asked the doctor for some graftings.
In course of time these gratings ar
rived. Then Mrs. Jenkins who had
seen the Beulah Beauties took a hand
.' in the matter and she carried on her
urgent campaign to such an extent
' that Mr. Jenkins just had to do somc
. thing. Consequently he began grafi
' ing on apple trees, to be sure. Some
of Dr. Kent's graftings were placed
at home and others on the orchards
of near neighbors. And now Macon
county has some apples that are a
delight to the rye. Not enough for
sale, but enoTigh-tn- make one-wonder
why the Beulah Beauties have been
so "long neglected in this apple gr --
. ing country. Mrs. Jenkins was k. d
-,ivi, i-.cnTitKr to srnd the- ecli' -r
a couple of these apples grown n '
the home of Bob Sheffield. One lac -
" ed an ounce or two of weighing o e
pound and is exactly 12 inches in
circumference, while the other is
somewhat smaller. The apples are a
beautiful red in color and well shaped.
There is no doubt that the finest
apples in the world, can be grown right
here in Macon county, but the .'trre.
require some attention and, besides,
granddad '"growed good apples with
out no spraymK and all these new
fancied methods."
a permanent .pasture wun i'ujuik live
stock on each acre we will be the
most prosperous and. the nappiest
peopk- in all this mountain ' region,
flnr hnvs and liirls will have to
help us to develop these pastures, so
let us help them in their cluo worK
in order to make farmers of some of
the smartest ones instead of sending
all of them away to the cities.
The farmers' page, in The Press is
so full of useful information that 1
hope Mr. Lyles Harris is allowed to
continue sending it to us eaeh week.
