American agriculture has re corded great achievements in the past decades, but the challenges it faces in increased population both at home and abroad, and the growing demand for improved diets as a result of improved living standards are very great. It has been demonstrated that money invested in agricultural reserach has returned rewarding benefits. Adequate research is the basis for more efficient production and marketing; lower costs; and new food, forest and fiber pro ducts. Expanded research can help to find (1) Solutions to national energy problems, (2) Better solu tions to agriculture's environmental concerns, (3) Acceptable controls for diseases, noxious weeds, and insects, (4) New crop varieties with higher nutritional values and varie ties suited to mechanical handling and processing, (5) Solutions to marketing problems, and (6) Ad ditional uses for agricultural pro ducts. The result of this type of useful government spending has been demonstrated by the U.S. Depart ment of Agriculture and state agricultural experiment stations. Farmers recognize the need for research in all segments of agricul ture and our food system. Food distribution accounts for a larger share of the consumer's food expenditures than raw agricultural products. As a consequence, addi tional research is needed in pro cessing, marketing, and transpor tation, as well as the factors which affect the production of raw pro ducts. (We commend the 1977 N.C. General Assembly which appropri ated additional funds for agricul tural research in the amount of SI. 26 million in 17 different areas. This was in addition to funds previously appropriated.) beat inflation Ask your Nationwide agent about Nationwide's Home owners Insurance with built-in inflation protection! Call today. El M.

Shorter Center Lines To Save State Money Motorists driving on the newly opened northernmost part of 1-77, or on US * 401, just south of Raleigh, will observe that the highway center line markings on these segments of roadway are shorter and are spaced further apart than elsewhere. The shorter center line markings are not a result of a paint shortage, but a means to save on highway maintenance and construction costs. North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) officials report that the shorter center line is a sign of the future and that from now on the shorter center line pavement markings will be the norm rather than the exception. "Soon all center line pavement markings throughout North Caro lina will be 10 feet long at 30 - foot intervals, instead of the previously used 15 - foot long marking stripes with 25 - feet of spacing between them." declared H.C. Rhudy, manager of North Carolina De partment of Transportation's Traf fic Engineering Branch. He ex plained that by using a one to three painted line to spacing ratio, instead of the old three to five line to interval ratio, the Department of Transportation will save an esti mated $160,000 annually. "Various studies, conducted by the Federal Highway Administra tion show that the shorter center line markings do not reduce the effectiveness of the pavement markings, while they result in substantial material savings," Rhudy. Costs to modify NCDOT's pavement marking equipment to accommodate the shorter line painting procedure will cost an estimated $2,000, but will save 50,000 gallons of paint annually, enough paint to provide center line markings for an additional 600 miles of multi - lane highway.
