New Discovery

Heat

Macon, Ga., Sept. 12.—A. I
Freedlander, President and Gen
era! Manager of The Day tor
Rubber Manufacturing Companv
pioneer manufacturers of auto
tires and belts, was here toda
for a conference with officials of
Bibb Manufacturing Company ir
connection with the discovery of
an entirely new principle in pro
cessing cotton ‘ for tire fabric
which promises to double the life
of automobile tires, according to
information released today.
“Five years ago,”' said Mr.
Freedlander, “our Company de
cided that it was essential to
# raise the critical temperature of
cotton fabric so that it/ would
have greater heat resistant quali
ties. Heat ik the disintegrating
factor in a tire or belt and with
the higher present-day speeds 6f
automobiles, tires, and fan belts
generate greater heat. Failure of
automobile tires from blow-out,
with consequent increase in ac
cidents and deaths on the high
ways, presented a problem the
solution of which was of world
wide importance.
“The Bibb Manufacturing Com
pany undertook the problem of
developing a cotton cord which
would maintain strength and
safety factors under high tem
peratures, and practical develop
ment work has been carried on
for the past five years. During
this period over 90 different cord
fabrics were produced and sub
mitted for tests of every conceiva-
ble nature.
“Over the past 25 years,” Mr.
Freedlander pointed out, “we
have experimented with every
known material and our tests on
the road and in laboratory prove
that Heat Resistant Cotton Cord
produces the most satisfactory
results, not only for extremely
long life in tires, but, what is of
more importance, a very high
degree of safety.
“Until the discovery of the new
method of processing cotton un
der which Heat Resistant Cord is
. now produced, no one could tell
the condition of the inside of a
tire, that is the carcass, at any
time throughout its life. No'one
could determine the amount of
deterioration, which takes place
progressively. Naturally, the only,
inspection possible was on the
outside.
“Now, for the first time,” Mr.

October.'
Turnips can be planted witn
success as late as the last of
October for salad. The seventop
is one of the best salads for winter
use. The White Egg is a good
variety for both salad and turnip.
It is too late now for sowing ruta
baga turnips except in the south
ern part of the State. Purpletop
Yellow Aberdeen is one of the
best winter varieties.
Try the Japanese foiliage tur
nip for salad greens and turnips.
It is offered to the trade under a
number of different variety
names. Some seed houses offer
it under the name of Shogoin.
Make Plantings Of:
Onions (seed)—Yellow Globe
Danvers, Prizetaker, White Pearl.
Australian Brown—Sow September
20 to October 20.
Onions (sets)—Yellow Globe
Danvers, Prizetakers, White Pearl,
Australian Brown.
Cabbage (seed)—For frost-proof
plants — Charleston Wakefield,
Succession and Late Flat Dutch,
j Cabbage (Plants) — Charleston
i Wakefield. Try a few for winter
use.
Kale—Siberian Curled.
Parsley—Moss Curled.
Radishes’—Scharlet Globe or

Watch For Insects!
Turnip Lice: Spray with nico
tine sulfate, three-fourths pint
and five pounds of soap to 100
gallons of water, or two teaspoon
fuls and one ounce of soap to one
gallon of water.
Cultivate and clean up ground
where vegetables have matured.
Decaying vegetables and vegeta
ble plants are likely to increase
disease and insect damage next
season.

Garden Work
For September
Keep all the garden crops grow-
stunted for lack of sufficient food.
Nitrogen is the most needed food
for the garden crops, and an a-
bundant and readily available
supply should be on hand at all
times. Nearly always the garden
crops can be much benefited by
application of sulfate of ammonia
or nitrate of soda. Scatter some
three or five inches from the
base of the plant, and cover with
a shallow cultivation. It will
usually pay well.
Suggestions
Gather the mature lima beans
every week and store them away
for winter use.
Cabbage plants may be secured
from plant growers now and
transplanted to the garden or
field during September and
October. These plants, under
favorable conditions will produce
headed cabbage in December.
They may be used of course as
greens before the heads are
formed. We recommend Charles
ton Wakefield, Succession, and
Perfection Drumhead Savoy. The
Savoy will stand more cold than
any other variety.
Are you growing your own cab
bage plants for early spring set
ting? Seed should be sown the
