CAROLINA MOTOR
CLUB TO OPEN
ROXBORO OFFICE
Miss Nina Abbitt Will be In Charge.
Location of Office to be
Announced Soon.
On December 15 the Carolina
Motor Club will reopen its Auto
mobile License Plate and Title Serv
ice in Roxboro, after having closer
this branch office here several
months ago. The office will be in
charge of Miss Nina Abbitt as be
fore, and motorists can again get
license and title services here aj'j
has been the case for several years.
The Carolina Motor Club closed
its office here on account of the
resignation of Miss Abbitt, and be
cause no one else, competent to fill
the place by experience, could be
secured by the Club. The lack of
license plate and title service in
Roxboro caused local automobile
dealers and Person motorists no end
of inconvenience because trips to
Durham were necessary to get these j
services. j
Some weeks ago Roxboro car
dealers sought to find ways by
which the office might be reopened
and they finally persuaded Miss
Abbitt again to handle the services
of the motor vehicle bureau, and
the Carolina Motor Club has con
sented to cooperate with the deal
ers. Every car dealer in Person
county and every motorist who finds
the purchase of his license plates in
Roxboro more convenient than to
go to Durham for that purpose will
appreciate this act of the Club and j
Miss Abbitt. Doubtless a larger,
number of individual car dealers I
and motorists than ever will show
their appreciation by buying mem
berships in the Club.
The Carolina Motor Club is the '
only motor club in North Carolina 1
that can offer members services (
anywhere in America, and the mem- .
bership of the Club is rapidly in- '
creasing. The club is afflicted with j
the American Automobile Associa
tion (A.A.A.)
Miss Abbitt will soon announce (
the location of her office.

HOGS NEED RANGE
WHEN FATTENING
_ ________ i
Contrary to popular belief, a
Small, filthy, crowded pen is no
place to fatten hogs, said H. W. j
Taylor, extension swine specialist
at State College.
Crowded and filthy, the hogs can
not be as healthy and sanitary as '
they should to produce good, firm, 1
wholesome meat, Taylor pointed out. 1
Overfat hogs do not produce the
best pork, he added.
Hogs will gain well and keep clean ;
if allowed a reasonable amount of :
range and given all the balanced ,
ration they can eat, he continued,
and some exercise is needed to keep
them healthy.
Since it is important that pork be
produced as economically as is
reasonably possible, Taylor stated,
it is a good practice to turn the
hogs into a field where they can
glean food that has been left from
various crops.
Fattening hogs should have, in
addition to the field gleanings, all
the corn they can eat and a pro
tein supplement should be kept be
fore them at all times.
Taylor recommends fish meal or
tankage, or a mixture containing
one-half cottonseed meal and one
half fish meal or tankage as a good
protein supplement.

FOR GARDENERS
Number of Things That Good
Gardeners Will Attend to
This Month.
Although work in the vegetable
j garden is comparative slack in De
cember, there are a number of
things good gardeners will attend to
this month.
L. P. Watson, extension horticul
turist at State College, gives the fol
lowing suggestions for the home
gardener:
If lettuce seed has not been plant
ed already, sow it now in a cold
frame for an early spring crop. Cov
er the frame with a cloth, and. give
it additional protection during very
cold weather.
Now is a good time to make lib
eral applications of stable manure
to the garden in order to have early
vegetables next spring. If vege
tables are now growing in the gar
den, spread the manure between
them, and work it in as soon as pos
sible.
Mexican bean beetles do serious
damage to late beans. Start fight
ing them now by gathering up all
trash and refuse around the garden
and burning it This applies especial
ly to old bean plants and vines on
the fence.
Fruit trees are now dormant, and
pruning should be done so spray
may be applied before the budis
form next spring. Dig up and bum
winter, he added, growers should
begin to think about their spring
farrows, and see that the necessary
equipment is available.
Now is a good time to build a
farrowing house, he said. A plan
for such a house may be obtained
from county farm agents or from
the agricultural editor at State Col
lege, Raleigh. Ask for plan No. 160.

all dead and badly diseased trees.
If more fruit trees are to be set
out, plant them right away, as this
will give them time to get well es
tablished in the soil before spring
growth starts.
Cut out all dead wood in shade
trees and shrubbery, but do not
prune out live wood in an attempt
to improve the shape of trees and
shrubs that bloom in the spring.
Buds have already formed on these,
end pruning at this time will re
duce their blooming surface.

Craven farmers are requesting
information as to the type of farm
program that will be used in 1937
as time approaches for the planting
of tobacco seed beds.
