A renewal requires, in the case of farmers, a written request to the Farm Transportation Committee, AAA Office, Smithfield, N. C; in the case of other gasoline users, the written request would be forwarded to the War Price & Rationing Board, Smithfield, N. C. All written applications for renew al should be made from ten to fifteen days prior to the time your gasoline coupons will have been consumed. This written request may not be made more than fifteen days prior to the earliest renewal date, found on the face of coupon book, unless your present requirements of gasoline have changed. Coupons left in the book af ter the earliest renewal date are still valid and may be used. The Farm Transportation Commit tee has had the authority in the past to recommend an adjustment in a farmer's gasoline ration whenever the farmer had given out of gas and had produced that needed to be hauled to the market As the rules are now, the Farm Transportation Committee has had the authority in the past to recommend an adjustment in a farm er's gasoline ration whenever the farmer had given out of gas and had produce that needed to be hauled to the market. As the rules are now, the Farm Transportation Committee can no longer recommend swh adjust ments but will have to operate ac cording to the following .plan, i for example: , f Suppose' the JrWnl Transportation Pim Itfca haa MmimmatiiliH f a f producer receive enough gasoline j coupons in order to allow him to drive 200 miles per month for the next four months. If this producer should burn all this gasoline in two months' time, the Transportation Committee could not give him an ad justment but would have to take this case up and determine whether or not the 200 miles per month issued him was enough mileage to enable the producer to carry on his normal farming operations. If they determine that they had is sued enough mileage to start with, then' they could not recommend that he receive any more mileage until the end of this four months' period. If they determine that they should have issued this man 250 miles per month, they will set his mileage on this figure. Then it will have to be figured out how long the producer's present book should have lasted him provided he did not drive more than 250 miles per month, if the producer was originally issued 200 miles per month for a four months' period, or, in other words. 800 miles for the f nn minfVia TliviHo ftftft v 9Kfl miloc ! which is the miles determined that this man should have been issued and the answer will be 2.7 months. In other words; the producer's present book should have lasted for two months and twenty-one days from the date it was issued. At this time, the commitee can issue the man in question the 250 miles for a four months' period. Selma Drug Company Installs Germ Killer The latest thing in Medical science is an electric germ killer, which is designed to kill all disease germs floating in the air in bed rooms and public places, such as drug stores, of fices, etc. It is said to kill the germs that in fect the nose, throat and other breath ing passages to the human body, thereby preventing common colds, septic sore throat, influenza, mumps, coughs, n.easles, chicken pox, etc. The Selma Drug store has recently installed these germ killers, and Bill Creech tells us that since this device was installed he has noted a great absence of cock roaches about the store. In Surgical Test Dr. Deryl Hart of Duke' University, reported on surgical tests that under the most rigid aseptic control 1735 operations resulted in 206 post-operative infections (11.9) and 19 deaths. After installing 2537 A Radiation in the operating room 2463 operations were performed with less than th of 1 P-0 infection and no deaths. Would you give $100 to bring Vic tory nearer?
