The Department of Motor Vehicles cautioned mo torists today to pay closer at tention to the expiration date on their driver's licenses. Under . the Department's revis ed driver licensing program, begun in 1948, a number of li censes are expiring daily. El tori R. peele, of the Licensing Section asked that motorists take a close look at their driv er's license and note the expira tion date which, he pointed out, falls on the licensee's birthdate. Peele said that a 60 day peri od had been arranged for re newal applicants in order to a void congestion. He urged mo torists to take advantage of this by applying for renewal permits anytime during the 60 day per iod before it expires. In addition Peale pointed out that motorists will not be prose Cheiryville PCA Meeting Friday The annual meeting of stock holders of the Cherryv i lie Pro duction Credit Association will .be held at the Shelby City Park Assembly .

Do you ALWAYS go to bed with a clean face? Do you wash your stockings or socks each night after wearing? Do you keep youi stocking seams straight? Do you keep your shoes shined and the heels straight? Do you give your clothes a weekly check up for spots, loose buttons and rips? Do you give your non-washable clothes a good airing once a week? What about your clothes care equipment? The clothes upkeep list should include: clothes brush, shoe kit and shoe trees, dry clean ing material, clothes hangers and sewing kit. Your clothes closet and bureau drawer? should be orderly. Your handkerchiefs, gloves, dress shields, collars and cuffs, and hat band should be clean. -*V - < sv- Wii E3 Protect Garden And Household Tools Garden implements nnd house hold tools can be protected ltom rust by cleaning and applying a coat of paste' wax.

This was decided by the State Cotton Committee at a recent meeting at State College. Acreage grown in 1951 was 701,000. ' The committee said each cot ton-growing county will be asked to produce as big a crop In 1952 as it did last year, and 19 counties will be asked to increase their production to 105 or 106 per cent of the 1951 crop. Emphasis will be placed on ef ficiency of production and in creased yields per acre. Which the committee said are sound goals to shoot at not only during the present national emergency but also during normal times. Cotton specialists present point ed out that on the basis of one bale per acre North Carolina can produce cotton cheaper than Ari zona. The cost of producing a bale per acre In the Tar Heel State, it was said, Is $114.18, while the cost in Arizona is $126.20. On that basis, the net return in North Carolina would be $101.32 com pared to a net profit of $81.80 In 1 the western state. The committee, which met at the call of Chairman D. S. Wea ver, director of the State College \ Extension . Service, reviewed re sults of the 1951 State cotton pro gram and commended technical workers for their efforts. Recommendatidns on all phases of efficient cotton production will be distributed to all agricultural workers throughout the State, and a "Cotton News Letter" will be issued at regular intervals, as in 1951. The Bureau of Plant Industry, USDA, reports that more than 6,000 plant introductions were made during 1951. <&RIN0 YOUR MSUR.'.NCE ^PROBLEMS TO US AND STOP woftftvmo kbout protection FOR YOUR FAMILV YouH hare nothing to "fume" about if you know your house and possessions are covered by Fire Insurance from WAR LICK'S. w&Wtanee .???PHONE 9 AND 271 ... kr-.-A.JE.1 ?) ,..i Sfcy&N SWERSSpJ||l| I M 1 1 1 FA RM ftotsild N S QUESTION: Where is the new peanut research farm located? ANSWER: It is the Old Lewis farm at Lewiston, in Bertie Coun ty. The farm contains 366 acreas in the heart of the Roanoke-Cho wan peanut producing area. QUESTION: How many horses and mules are there on North Carolina farms? How many trac tors? ? 1 ANSWER; In 1950 there were 355,077 horses and mules and 73. 524 tractors on Tar Heel farms. In 1930 the number of workstock was more than 380.000 and the number of tractors was 11,426. Another indication of the trend ! toward mechanization is shown by the fact that the number of combines on farms in the State has increased from 3,901 in 1943 to 13;252 in 1950. QUESTION: What practices should I follow in 1952 to make good yields of cotton per acre? ANSWER: Research and farm er experience have shown that there are seven practices that a farmer must follow to make good cotton yields. They are: plant recommended seed; lime and fer tilize as needed; distribute ferti lizer properly; mechanize plant ing and cultivation; apply side dressing according to needs; fol low complete insect control pro gram; and sell cotton on grade and staple value.* , 'These seven practices are ex plained in detail In Extension Cir cular frio. 345, "Seven Stops to Ef ficient Cotton Production."

' & ike power has done the same. but today, we'd like to concentrate on the third member of the power trio ? Buick's own version of Power Steering, available on Roadmastbrs at a moderate extra cost. What is this Power Steering like? It's some thing like a helping hand, something like a "hydraulic slave"? that relieves you of all steering strain, but lets you keep command. What we mean is this: Power Steering ta handled by a special hydraulic unit? and engineers can design tfiis unit to take over any amount of steering effort ?even to a point where the wheel seems to float in your hand. that hydraulic unit? get no steering "feel" from the wheel. Now suppose you're telling two agile tons of automobile what to do in traffic. We think you'd like to have it know that you're in command. And ? out on the straightaway? we believe that a part of the joy you get from owning a Buick is the sensation of having something alive and eagerly willing beneath your hands. So we're glad to announce that Buick engineers didn't spoil this thrill. They've kept the fun of driving, and simply eased the effort. When you're rolling along smooth and straight, it takes almost no effort to keep any Buick , on course. It almost steers itself, as every Buick owner knows. But in that case, you'd surrender all control to But- when you want to get away from ? curb ?back into a parking spot? make a turn ?
