Auto Thefts lump During 1st Quarter You'd better keep a sharp watch on your car warned W. E. Koonce of the Motor Vehicles De partment's Auto Theft Bureau to day. Increased activity among the nation's auto pilferers was report ed to Koonce recently by officials of the National Auto Theft Bu reau. NATB figures showed a 25 per-cent Increase in auto thefts for the first quarter of the fiscal year. In North Carolina ? where thieves cop autos at a rate of from 90 to 100 a month? the num ber of thefts in January jumped sharply. Last month there were 153 auto iheft? reported to Inves tigators of the Theft Bureau.

In the flat on the left above are cotton seedlings from treated seed. Seed from the same source was planted in the same type soil without treat ment in the flat on the right. Results such as this are frequently en countered in the numerous experiments on cottonseed treatment con ducted by the Experiment Station. Similar results are found to occur under practical farm conditions as is , shown by a 4-year summary of cottonseed treatment demonstrations conducted by the Extension Service. Results from a total of 251 demon ' . titrations conducted over the 4-year period showed that an average of 431 plants per 100 feet of row emerged from treated seed while untreated seed only produced an average of 305 seedlings per 100 feet of row. This means that treated seed produced over 41 per cent more seedlings than did untreated seed. Three times as many plants were killed by sore shin in untreated as in treated rows and 76 % more of the living seedlings had disease in untreated rows than in treated rows. At picking time there was an average of 134 plants per 100 feet of row from treated aeed and only 101 per 100 fipet of row in untreated rows. Better standi mean kigker yield*. Later work by the Experiment Station shows that where cotton seed of good germination is properly treated farmers may safely reduce their seeding rate and even avoid thinning.

Azealea Festival Set March 27-30 WILMINGTON- In subtropical Southeastern North Carolina, spring gets an early welcome. What has become more or less the State's "official" greeting to the new season is the annua! ! Azalea Festival at Wilmington, center of a garden area boasting more than a million azaleas. F<,;- four days, thousands of: visitors ride around the t'ree-lin- 1 ed roads of the Low County to I marvel at the brilliant show of i color- vibrant crimsdns, magen tas. and purples mingling with 1 pale j*inks, lavenders, and whites. [The 1952 Festival?the fifth -will be held March 27-30. Chief show places for Festival j visitors are ancient Or ton Planta- : ! tion and Airlie Estate, private I 'gardens open to the public, and j Greenfield I^ke and Park, muni- j cipally owned. Live oaks and cy pressses draped with Spanish moss from the backdrop for the display of azaleas and other flow ers. Orton, on the banks of the broad Cape Fear River, was founded in 1725 by "King" Roger Moore. The Orton mansion, a perfect example of ante-bellum architecture, may be seen from many vantage points in the beau* tiefully planned gardens and on the soft green lawns, passes of iiidica azalea blossoms, (enhanced by late-blooming camellias, roses, wisteria, and dogwood, greet the visitor. Airlie Gardens' 95 acres of lakes and formal and natural gardens were designed by Topel. for many years gardener to the German Kaiser, when the estate was owned by Pembroke Jones, wealthy 19th century rice planter and industrialist. Greenfield Park, lying within the city limits of Wilmington, has a five-mile scenic drive around the lake giving close-ups of great banks ol azaleas, giant fuchsia Indicas and multi-hued dwarfs. The expansive lake is dotted with stately, nttss-hung cypresses. .? < ??. - ,i.AV - ? Last years national crop was about the same size in acreage as the 1935 crop, but about 50 per cent more cotton was pro duced. In 1951, total farm production was about two-fifths larger than the 1935-39 average, even though man-hours of labor were down sharply. Thfe volume of crude oil moved through trunk pipe lines In 1950 was two and a third billion bar rels, 11 per cent more than In 1919.

"J cannot tell a lie" ... we don't know, but the father of our country did say, "Honesty Is always the oest policy." The founding father of A&P ?
