NEW GRAIN VARIETIES
REDUCE FROST DAMAGE

Variety = not top-dressing-is
the key to protecting small grain
from frost damage, according to
DR.. F. J. Bell, seed and small
grain specialist for the State Col
'ege Extension Service.
Varieties such as Atlas wheat.
Arlington oats. and Colonial 2
barlty show no injury from freez-
ing temperatures and can be top
dressed at recommended rates
without being damaged by frost,
says Bell.
Experiment Station tests show
that small grain growers can in
crease their yields by so per cent
II they apply nitrogen top-dress-
ing on time, asserts the extension
specialist. The recommended date
for top-dressing is February is.
Application should be made as
close to this date as weather win
permit.

ON COUSIN WAYLAND AND
TAR HEELS, BOTH WITH AND
WITHOUT GALLUSES
In the Raleigh Times)

The Bounding Basque from Ber-
tie is cavorting again.
Senator Wayland Spruill (Cous-
in Wayland) tells a General As
sembly committee to ''funeralize"
proposed bill providing for the
checking of Tar Heel motor We
hicles.
Doubtless Cousin Wayland is
visibly moved by his zone gallus"
and mo gallus" constituents down
in BERTHE who want no part of
inspection-even though some of
them may not be encountered by
the ownership of motor vehicles.
Cousin Wayland did not hesitate
to tell members of a House Com
mittee that they chad better lis
ten" to those one-gallus and no
gallus fellows in case they want
to be members of future legislat-
i've bodies. Having been in several
past Legislatures, Cousin Way
land should know his stuff about
how to get elected-and' re-elect-
ed.
The term "funeralize" as ap-
piled to the Inspection Bill, Seems
appropriate in view of condem-
nation heaped upon it by numer-
Gus citizens more conscious of an
noyances in the late lamented
measure of 1947 than of its vir-
tues. Probably many of the oppon-
ents are reluctant to again take
time out under a proposed sched-
ule to visit inspection places and
pay nominal fees to find out what
may all their cars-if anything.
Cousin Wayland's reference to
"funeralizing" the revised Inspec-
tion Bill could be well applied to
nearly a thousand victims of
highway accidents last year. He
might also be prepared to think
of "hospitalizing" some of the 49,
900 highway traffic victims of
1850, in addition to the heart
aches, expense and annoyances
suffered by many sothers, as the
result of these unplanned traffic
accidents. 1t should be noted also
that highway deaths and accidents
in January, 1851, are perceptibly
ahead of those reported a year
ago. S
| Overlooked by Cousin Wayland
and other opponents of the In
spection Bill is the fact that plen-
ty of two-gallus motorists also
sometimes become victims, always
unwillingly, of course, from the
carelessness of motorists with
loose screws in their heads or
with too much booze under their
shirts.
Inspection will not cure all
these evils, but it will help-and
real help is needed in reducing the
terrific highway DEATH toll
without having an advisory com,
mittee to emphasize such needs.
| Yes, it is quite evident that the
one-gallus and no-gallus fellows
from Cousin Wayland's Berthe
and elsewhere-prefer a Cow Col
iseum to Culture, Safety and Re-
lief for other Tar Heels, in time
of stress or at other times.

schools, in the homes and in our
daily schedules.
We dare say that if the present
trend is maintained, there1l come
time when places to play
will be demanded ahead of space
for classrooms.
It's a long jump from the old
system under which communities
nailed together wooden shells for
gymnasiums to the present sys-
tenn under which brick structures
are built of mortar and brick. The
next phase in the new era will be
to determine who will be in line
for modern place to play, and
whether crowded conditions in
classrooms are to receive first
consideration.
Our humble advice is, put just
as much energy in our studying
as we do in our playing, and make
athletics a means of wholesome
recreation and not the No. 1 goal
in life.

DIR. E. R. Hardin, Robson coun-
ty health officer, has appealed to
all citizens to report mad dogs
or evidence of dogs infected with
rabies. During the month of JAN
uary % rabid animals were re-
ported and so Pasteur treatments
were ordered for persons bitten or
suspected of having been bitten
by dogs with the disease. The
spread of rabies in Robson has
reached the state where it cannot
be controlled on a community bas-
is. 1t must be handled on a county
wide basis, health department Of
ficials said.
Growing importance of vacation
and other travel to the Southeas-
tern economy is highlighted by
the sharp rise in hotel receipts
since pre-war. Dixie's 1000 hotels
and $3.50 tourist courts crossed
almost $500, 100000 in 1913, &C
cording to figures released for the
Census of Service Trades. Prev
ious census data showed a total
of less than $1OO,000,O0O in 1899.
Florida alone had hotel and tour
fist receipts of $112,0O0,00O in
1913, almost 40% of the regional
total. Virginia followed with So >
100000, and Georgia, Louisiana,
North Carolia and Tennessee
crossed about $25,0OO,O each.
| Most startling development is the
tremendous growth in motor
courts. Motels and other courts
increased their rooms from a pre-
war total Of only 1850 to nearly
$4,000 in 1913. They row account
for one-fifth of all rooms available
at both hotels and tourist courts,
as compared with only one-tenth
before the war. North Carolina,
South Carolina and Louisiana
have more than tripled the num-
Der of tourist court rooms since
1889, and all the other states have
at least doubled. Hotel capacity
has also expanded, but by a mere
modest 20 per cent.

The snow, which was the worst
in years at Wilmington, had some
thing greatly unusual about it,
according to chemist at Will
mington College-it was slightly
radioactive. The radioactive con-
tent of the snow was about equal
to that of he dial of luminous
watch and not nearly enough to
give occasion for alarm. The fact
that the storm came from the
east, not from the direction of the
recent atomic tests in Nevada
makes anyone's explanation as
acceptable as the experts in this
case-for they're without one.
Drivers license examiners of
the North Carolina Department of
VICTOR Vehicles issued a total of

There's always at least one big
political show every year in North
Carolina. The State Convention
only comes every other year-but
the Jefferson-Jackson Day Dinner
is held every year, and it always
provides a fine show, either on
stage or back-stage. This year
should prove no exception, with
1862 gubernatorial talk already
stirring in hotel Hobbies as
the States Legislators gather. Pol
iticians coming to Raleigh for the
February 10 dinner are expected
to keep their ears close to the
ground to sense the development
of any gubernatorial trend. Sales
of the $50-a-plate tickets for the
Democratic Party's Embarrassing
dinner are going well, especially
when it is considered that this
is an off-year politically in this
State. The dinners, held in every
State, are the Democratic Party's
chief means of raising funds.
