"X/°U can learn all you need to know about car Iubrica

four rules. Standardize on ‘Standard’ Polarine. Get the right
consistency. Use enough. Change it often.”
The correct consistency of oil or grease for crank-case, trans
mission and rear axle has been charted for every make of car
and truck. If you are not sure whether you are using the
right one ask your dealer to shew you nis “Standard Polar
ine Chart. Then, wherever you go, ask for that consistency
by name.
If you expect your engine to be on the job whenever you
need it, it is up to you to make sure o: it. Buy your oil on a
quality basis. Change it at least every 500 miles. Years of
experience have shown that to be about the limit of safety.
Under average conditions the very best of crank-case oil col
lects enough road grit and unburnt uiel in 500 miles to im
pair seriously the lubrication of pistons and main bearings.
So when you change, change! fo leave any dirty and diluted

Cotton Blight Disease
Will Not Rot Bolls
Disease Which Is Prevalent With
Cotton Is Not Injurious To
The Bolls.
A di ease known as cotton blight
which first appeared in the cotton
fields of North Carolina in early
duly and which is now appearing
again in many fields will not rot the
bolls according to tests made by Dr.
F. A. Wolf, plant disease investiga
tor for the State College Experi
ment Station.
Dr. Wolf says that this disease ap
peared in epidemic form in eertp'u
parts of the State, especially in
on-tern Carolina, in early July and
gave growers much concern at that
time. It caused heavy shedding of the
leaves and in some cases the tops of
the plants rotted off. At that time,
Dr. Wolf predicted that the trouble
would end and the plants would re
cover quickly with the advent of clear
Warm days.
‘‘Such was the case,*’ says Dr.
{•Wolf, ‘ hut the disease is now ap
pearing again in its ; late season
form. We find that it is now very
abundant and piany inquiries have
been received, at thin office relative
to the trouble. It appears as a form
of leaf spot recognized by large,
grayish brown spots with concentric
markings. The affected tissues read
ily fall away making large openings
or notches in the leaves.
“We find that the blight will not
spread to the bolls and cause them to
rot as many farmers seem to think.
Our field observations indicate that
the nature bolls will not be affected.
However, any cotton grower who
wants the disease identified can send
us in specimens and we will be glad
to write him in detail about the trou
ble.”
Specimens addressed to Dr. F. A.
Wolf. Plant Pathologist, State Col
lege Station, Raleigh, will receive
prompt attention.

Gastonia Gazette.
Announcement that the bit; Gnston
county fair will throw open its gates
three week* from today serves as n
reminder that there is another big
county fair in this section, too. The
premium list of the Cleveland county
fair is at hand and a hasty perusal
indicates that the Cleevlnnd folks are
staging n real fair. They have spared
n'o expense in equipping themselves
for a fair. The grounds are among the
moft attractive in the state, and they
have ottered a hig list of premiums.
In addition, there is the added nttrac
ion of horse-racing, which has its de
votees hy the hundreds.
The Cleveland fair comes two
weeks later than the Gaston county
fair, so there will be ample opportun
ity for the people of both counties to
take in both fairs, which will doubt
less lie the case. Cleveland folks in
large number will visit the local fair
to get last minute data and pointers,
and our folks in turn will visit Cleve
land to see how much, if any, they
can beat us at the county fair busi
ness.
