Minn., where Jie greatest peacetime maneuvers in the history of the eoqnUy are being held Aug. 3—Aug. 24. To “keep them rolling,’’ Chevrolet, one of the largest suppliers of motor transport equipment to the nation's armed forces, has set up through one of its dealers, the Bert Baston Motor Co., of Minneapolis, a complete parts and service headquarters in the military reservation at little Falls. More than SIO,OOO worth of parts is main tained at this depot, where three service representatives are on duty 24 hours daily to service Chevrolet equip GARDENING BECOMES YEAR-ROUND PROJECT No longer is gardening considered exclusively a summer enterprise. H. S. Niswonger, horticulturist of the N. C. State College Extention Service, points out that it is possible to have fresh vegetables from the home garden on a year round basis in North Caro lina. “During September and October, there are many vegetables which may be planted,” Niswonger says. ‘‘These include winter spin ach of the Longstanding and Bloomsdale varieties, Siberian kale, Southern Giant Curled mustard, Pur ple Top Globe turnips, and Seven Top turnip greens. “Beets and carrots planted the first of September in Eastern Carolina should mature before freezing weather. Cabbage plants of the Charleston • Wake field variety., usually will produce heads about Christmas time in the East if planted around Septem ber, 1. This variety of" cab bage will stand a lot of cold weather.” The horticulturist also reccommends green onions as a winter delicasy from the home garden. “Put out sets of the Silver Skin var iety, and for green onions - next winter and spring set out the- multiplying variety. After theinning out plants to be used for green onions, the 'remaining plants will develop into mature" on ions,” he says. Niswonger recommends that strawbe>ry plants be fertilized i n Eastern North Carolina in early Septem ber and in the mountain and northern Piedmont area during late Septem ber or early October. “For all regions, apply eight to ten pounds of a s—B—fffer tilizer per 100 feet of row 1 Put one- third of the ferti- " lizer on each side of the ] row and the other third on top. Develop a thin matted row of plants with the plant bed 18 inches wide, ( anG the runner plants spaced a hoe-width apart. After the 18-inch row is filled with the spaced plants remove all surplus runner plants around October 1 to 15,” the Extention special ist said. * ; - > ’ THE YANCEY RECORD DRINKING DRIVERS 7 ARE WARNED " 1 j < Drinking drivers were] responsible Tor 48 street < and highway fatalities in North Carolina the first six months of this year, according to a summary just completed by the Highway Safety Division. Ronald Hocutt, director of the division, said the Tiecltient -records for the first half of 1940 show that | 50 drunke/i ,jpr clrinking drivers were involved i n 42 fatal accidents in which 48 persons were killed. “The drinking driver i s not the most numerous type of offender on . our highways,” commented Hocutt, “but he certainly is the most dangerous. The person who has taken any alcoholic beverages in to his system, even one drink of liquor, is a highly potential menace to every other person using the highway on which he driv es. Alcohol sometimes stimulates those who drink it, causing them to become exhilarated and a little more reckless than usual. Then again it sometimes has a depressing effect, f and produces drowsiness. Still again, liquor often confuses and » befuddles jthe mind and impairs the vision. And it always af fects the driver’s reaction time, hampering the coor dination between mind and muscle that is so essential in safe driving.” Safety Director Hocutt strongly advises all indivi duals who do any drinking to get someone else to do their driving for them. “Drinking and driving just don't mix,” he declar ed.
