Big Mileage Of Roads Are Lined For Safety The State Highway Commission last year painted 17,1500 miles of highway centerlines, including ithe yellow bar rier lines at potential danger points, it is reported by Traffic Engineer Robert A. Burch. A total of 12448 miles of white centerlines and 6,052 miles of yellow barrier lines, which serve as warning to motorists, were laid down in 1952. Burch emphasized that the mileage painted in the year does not mean .that is the total miles of painted lines in existence on North Carolina highways. ' Many miles of roads paint ed in 1951 did not need repainting last year due to use of a superior paint in 1951. Roads not repainted in 1952 will require new centerlining this . year, Buroh explained. , (He added: "The painting operation, as a result of the demands of the public, has increased each year and it appears will continue to increase until such time that a usable and satis factory line is in existence on all ma jor roads." In 1950, his division painted 10,934 Ilrjscworli Easy Without lagging BactacliD - i When kidney function alow down, many folia complain of nagging backache, loaa of pep and energy, headaches and dizaineaa.

(Rate of paint application on the- white lines aver aged 6.8 gallons per mile. All of the paint was manufactured at Central Prison, and all of it was pre-mixed with reflectorized beads which give the centerlines greater visibility at night. Use -of high-capacity painting machines enabled some of the work crews to paint in excess of 60 miles of centerline in a single day. . Workers On Farms Drop During 1952 A total of 8,338,000 people were working on farms in late November. This is a decrease of about 3 million from a month earlier, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, USDA, has reported. It is almost 535,000 less than m November, 1961. There were about 340,000 fewer family wprkers than a year ago, while hired workers were about 195,000 less , than a year earlier. The relatively sharp decline in both number of f ami- I ly workers and hired workers may j du largely actnouxea to tne ravoraDie early fall weather which permitted harvestings to be completed at ani early date, thus greatly reducing the labor needs by late November. rrtrVrrArVVwVVVVVwVVVVwVwV Effective Saturday, February 7, Jordan's Barber Shop will close on Saturdays a 9:30 P.
