Take Stock Of
Driving Habits

RALEIGH - Whlle OlQ Man
Winter is still several freezes and
frosts away the recent cold snaps
have served to remind Tar Heel
motorists that it's time to winter
ize their cars and trucks.
But the Safety Division of the
Department of Motor Vehicles
suggests that you 60 two steps
beyond the usual seasonal lubrica-
ton changes and the placing of
anti-freeze in your radiator.
First, you'll want to take stock
of your driving, habits and adapt
them to the additional hazards
Encountered as temperatures drop.
Second, and equally important,
you'll want to inspect the special
lied winter driving equipment Of
fered by many accessory manu-
facturers as an aid to safer cold
winter driving.
Where winter motoring is con-
cerned right now is the time to
thoroughly check your battery,
windshield wipers, heating and
defrosting units, and tire chains
according to the safety experts.
And have you thought of the
advantages of installing direction
al signals on your car? State law
requires that we give turning sig
mails, either by hand or mechani-
cal-electrical devices. And hand
signals are perfectly all right for
passenger car drivers but they do
necessitate rolling down the win
dow and letting in blast of cold
air. If you don't care for that sort
of thing, better have directional
signals installed. Cold weather is
| no excuse for failing to obey the
turning signal law.
But, as the Safety Division
warns, no known equipment will
prevent dangerous skids on icy
pavement if you are driving too
fast for prevailing conditions.
That's why the safety men say
it's very important to winterize
your driving habits.
For that reason you'll surely
want to drive slowly on icy or
wet streets, much slower than
you've been accustomed to driving
in the fall and summer. And too,
you'll have to allow a greater dis
lance between your car and the
vehicle ahead. Remember, even
on dry pavement it takes a car
travelling 40 miles per hour 1913
feet to stop. In winter you have
to be especially cautious to avoid
rear end collisions.
And these new driving habits
will call for a revision of your
"going-to-Work" schedule. At
safe, reduced winter time speeds,
it's going to take little longer to
get to the office or shop. Make al
lowances for this by getting up a
little earlier suggests the High
way Safety Division.
Going home will be even worse
as winter sets in. After the days
work, you'll be faced with rapidly
fading light, hurrying pedestrians,
shoppers, slippery streets, and
school children all intent on get
ting home to warm firesides and
hot suppers.
All of these factors "gang-up"
to make the early evening the
most dangerous time of day so
far as traffic accidents are con-
cerned.
There are many things for the
driver to think about with winter

SHORTER CROPS
IN N. C. OF CORN,
PEANUTS, BEANS
S o y cans 100000 Fewer
Bushels; Corn Loss Runs
in Millions

Considerable reductions of the
estimated corn, soybean and pea
nut crops in N. C. are reported by
the authorities this year.
North Cardinals soybean grow
ers will harvest about 100000
fewer bushels in 1852 than they
did in 1851, according to a state
ment released today by the State
Federal Crop Reporting Service
and based on crop reports as of
October 1.
The estimated production for
this year was set at 4,848,OOO, as
compared with total crop for
1851 of 4,95O,OO0. The 1O-year av-
erage (1941-50) for the State is
3,142,000 bushels.
Agricultural statisticians in Ra-
leigh estimated that the yield-per-
acre average will run about 16
bushels from 100000 harvested
acres. The 1851 crop came from
100000 harvested acres.
Some damage has been done to
the soybean crop in the State by
army worms and beetles, but some
growers say it is too early to ap-
praise extent of the damage. Ex-
tended hot and dry weather was
another factor that caused some
damage in the major producing
areas, southern Coastal and Pied
mont counties being the hardest
hit.
The corn crop in North Caro-
lima will be considerably smaller
this year than in 1851 and smaller
than the 10-year average for 1941-
so, it was also disclosed.
Current estimates SYNDICATE that
the State will produce 55,075, 900
bushels from 100000 indicated
acres for harvest-compared with
the 1851 crop of 67,611,OOO BUSH
els from 2,1S1, 900 acres. The 10
year average for corn is $780,
600 bushels from 2,253,O0O acres.
The per-acre yield for 1852 is
estimated at Is bushels, compar-
ed with 81 bushels last year and
the 10-year average of 26.5 bush
els,
Harvesting began the latter
part of August in the commercial
corn section around Elizabeth City
and about so percent of the crop
in this area had been picked by
October 1. Corn harvesting is get
ting we'll along in other eastern
areas, but in Piedmont counties
corn picking is a little late in get
ting started because of the late
tobacco crop and the urgency of
gathering cotton.
The summer drought cut corn
yields sharply throughout the
Piedmont region and to lesser
extent in Coastal and Mountain
sections.
Peanut growers will harvest an
estimated 248,750,O00 pounds this
year from 10000 acres, consid-
erably less than the 315,21O,OOO
pounds produced last year on an
estimated $4,000 harvested acres.
The 10-year average (1941-50)
was 299, $4,000 pounds harvested
from 276,OO0 acres.
Statisticians in the Raleigh Of
fee said the figures for this years
crop were based on an estimated
yield per acre of 1880 pounds. The
1851 yield was 1880 pounds, sec
ond only to the record 1910 yield
of 1,43O. The 10-year average
