That, in capsule form, was the

BE careful how you spend

many times and can mean a va
riety Of things, but particularly
1t can mean cautioning against
buying from door door sales
men who might leave false i'm
pressions.
1t has come to Miss Whisnant's
attention that a group of North
Carolina farm families were left
with the impressions that large
electrical appliances, sold by a
door to door salesman, would
cost a certain amount of money.
When it needed, they had paid
more than $50 over and above
the price quoted to them by the
salesman. Furthermore the farm
families neglected to get copies
of papers they had signed; also
the company would not agree to
abide by the method of payment
outlined by the salesman.
Miss Whisnant points out
however, that because a few
statesmen do leave false impress
sions doesn't mean they all do
but this few can cause financial
strain and heartbrcak to a fam
ily who can least afford to lose
their hard-earned money"

What can walkers and cycil-

deadly odds stacked against
them? Griffin had the following
suggestions:

no sidewalk, walk on the left

z. In urban areas, always

s. Remember, pedestrians in
dark clothing are difficult for
motorists to see. When walking
at night it's good idea to wear
hight or reflectori2ed clothing or
carry a flaShlight or sometime
white.
T. Don't trust your judgement
too far in estimating the speed
OF an approaching car by its
headlights at night. Never cross
a street or highway unless Won
are absolutely certain you have
ample time to reach the other

ITO get the best buy, you
have to determine which ferti-
hders of the same ratio will
give you the most of these plant
nutrients per dollar. TO do this.
You simply add the nutrients in
grade and divide this figure
into the price per 100 pounds of
fertilizer. For example, the
grades 5-10-lO and 100000 both
have a ratio of 1:2:2, and total

respectively. Dividing these fig
